How did I become a colon hydrotherapist?
I know now that many of my life experiences have led me to this occupation, the big turn happened when my youngest daughter at 1 ½ years old had physical issues I did not have answers for. At the time I was a stay at home mom with 3 kids and previous to that I worked as a computer programmer for 6 years.

My search for the answer lead me to doctors and the medical approach, then to naturopathic doctors and to classes' taught by Dr. Michael Pierce D.C. These classes, focusing on nutrition and understanding body systems, were held nearly every month at my sister, Paula Bergs' house. Ever so often Dr. Pierce would say to the class that he hoped someone would train in colon hydrotherapy, so he could help instruct them and feel good about sending his clients there way. Each time he brought it up; I felt this tap on my shoulder. With the encouragement of Dr. Pierce, my sister and a number of other friends, I started looking in to the possibilities. I had never had a colonic and new nothing about the equipment or procedure. I contacted a number of schools and one in particular from Florida emailed back that two other ladies from Minnesota were looking into this occupation as well and connected us. One of the ladies had been very sick and on her healing path, had experienced many of the colonic systems. Talking with her provided me with much needed wealth of information. She also had experience in working with Quantum Techniques healing energy and Chinese Energy Medicine which all had greatly aided her recovery. This energy work intrigued me as well and I began my path of working with Energy Medicine.

With my youngest daughter entering kindergarten, it was time for me to step into what was next and colon hydrotherapy was definitely what showed up. I took the colon hydrotherapy training with Cathy Shea and the International School of Colon Hydrotherapy. The class was held in Eau Claire, Wisconsin in October of 2001. I then started Healing Within Colon hydrotherapy Inc in Jan 2002 in an office within Harmony Chiropractic.

My background
I graduated from Mott High School, in Mott, North Dakota and then received my BA at Jamestown College, Jamestown N.D. with a Computer Science Major and Chemistry, Math, and Biology Minors.

I worked as a computer programmer for 6 years at Unisys Corporation. During this time I married my wonderful husband and when my first child, Janae was born, I quite work and became a stay at home mom. I did this for 11 years before starting my next career with Colon hydrotherapy.

I had been coming to Kristin Burich for several years for Colon Hydrotherapy and was very impressed with the results.  I believe that healing your body naturally is the best way to take care of yourself.  Colon Hydrotherapy is very natural and gentle.  One day Kristin Burich let me know that she was going to be hiring a new Colon Hydrotherapist, she asked me if that was something I would be interested in.  My first  thought was, thanks for the offer Kristin, but, no thanks.  However, the more I thought about it, the more I realized that this was a great opportunity to help others with their journey in healing themselves naturally.  I decided to accept Kristin’s offer, and she trained me in Colon Hydrotherapy.  It gives me so much satisfaction to be able to help others with their health issues.  My desire is for everyone to have the best possible health they can have. 

My background
I have lived in Minnesota all my life.  I have a wonderful husband and two precious children.  I have worked in the accounting and finance field for several years.  I have always had an interest in the health field, so I am very grateful to have the opportunity to work at Healing Within as a Colon Hydrotherapist.

I have been taking care of my health with natural remedies for several years now.  I am very pleased with the results I have received from Colon Hydrotherapy.  I believe that cleansing your body is very important.  I have done several cleanses including the liver/gall bladder cleanse, the colonics cleanse, and the “So Easy” 3 day cleanse.  These three cleanses are very beneficial and I highly recommend them.  It is so important for us to take good care of our health.  Without good health, it is difficult to take care of ourselves and the ones we love.

It is great to have good health and energy to be able to enjoy life to the fullest.  I enjoy rollerblading, water skiing, walking, and spending time with family and friends.  I also enjoy Colon Hydrotherapy and helping people achieve their health goals.

BIOGRAPHY:

How did I become a colon hydrotherapist?
I was born in NYC in the middle of the last century. My upbringing was as full of wonderment, abuse, fun and stress as that city is of activity.

I was a sensitive child and one of my major problems was with elimination. The doctor didn't seem at all concerned by my inability to have regular movements.

My Mother had mental issues that she wasn't able to cope with which kept her in and out of hospitals for years on end. When she finally got out she was on various and sundry psychotropic drugs and other medications.

This reality set the stage in my minds eye for the beginning of an understanding that it was my responsibility to learn how to care for the body that I was living in.

I started to learn about integrative health care with the birth of my daughter Luna. I naturally had a strong desire to care for her and my experiences lead me to seek out the wisdom of the Earth Mother and Sky Father's healing ways.

I looked to the people who lived close to the earth for guidance in learning natural ways to assist the bodies' innate ability to heal itself given the proper environment and support. I had my own elimination issues to care for as well as a new life to nurture and support.

I became aware of Colon Hydrotherapy in 1972 while I was living in San Francisco. I was very new to this path of integrative health care and even though I knew that having Colonics would really help me I opted not to have them. I used teas and did enemas regularly which did provide relief.

After years of living closer to the earth, I continued traveling, living in many States and countries, Mexico, Central America, Europe and the Middle East. I was out of The USA for almost 5 yrs.

I returned to America in 1990 and arrived in Minnesota in 1991. I became involved in Social Services working at an Emergency Food Shelf as well as teaching Arts and Crafts with the Parks and Recreation Department.

I felt the changes in my life style; poor food choices and poor food quality and stress negatively impact my life. I had need of more healing and asked that I be led to find some answers.

I was led to the study of Glycobiology in the summer of 2000. This gave me some of the answers I was seeking with regard to my own health and wellbeing, opening new doors of possibilities which naturally held so many more questions.

My background
My passion for understanding natural ways to gain and maintain optimum health was rekindled. In order to continue to learn I felt the need to share and teach what I was learning so in the spring of 2003 I became a Wellness Coach.

I wanted to learn and do more to promote health and work in a more clinical capacity so in the winter of 2004 I asked that of the Universe, not really knowing what that would look like. In December of 2004 a friend mentioned to me that she knew a Colon Hydrotherapist that was looking to train someone to work with her in her clinic.

My friend also told me (bless her heart) that she thought that I could be a great Hydrotherapist. I gave that a great deal of thought. Three weeks later I attended a class given by that teacher. I decided to apply for the training before ever having the therapy myself and not knowing if I was right for the job but trusting the process.

I was accepted as a student in January of 2005 and embarked upon a rigorous training schedule for several months. During my training I received my first series of sessions and really felt better on several levels.

I was pleasantly surprised by how gentle Hydrotherapy is and how much I truly enjoyed helping people in this way. As I continue to learn and grow in this field I am so grateful to be of service in helping to facilitate health and healing in this capacity.

BIOGRAPHY:
Michael J. Hackett is associated with the American Bodywork and massage professionals and is a certified massage therapist. Michael J Hackett uses storytelling as a therapeutic metaphor. Therapeutic has Greek roots meaning to carry over or transfer. Many listeners find special personal significance and even use full directions in the stories I tell. I wonder in what way these stories will help you, teach you, by offering increasing possibilities to you in the coming weeks, months, and years. Metaphors just like stories and analogies help people make connections to what they already know; to their own unique experiences of life and by making connections and bridges, people build upon their own present knowledge and understanding. Storytelling is also one of the powerful arts of traditional healing. So ask Michael what storytelling can do for you.

Therapeutic Coaching is a collection of skills and techniques from various fields including: motivational counseling, emotional intelligence, learning styles, couples communication counseling, hypnosis, gestalt therapy, just to name a few. Michael J Hackett uses these skills to literally assist people in achieving their goals, break through obstacles, develop and maintain success in the many areas of their lives.
