she saw a need for a colon hydrotherapy clinic in the northern suburbs.

Renee decided to become a Certified
Colon Hydrotherapist after experiencing a significant improvement in
her own health through colon hydrotherapy. She has completed training
on the LIBBE device and is certified through I-ACT.
Renee's background includes a B.S. Degree in Animal Science and Biology.
She then attended the John Bastyr College of Naturopathic Medicine in Seattle.
She was the office manager for a naturopathic clinic, which incorporated
colon hydrotherapy, along with massage, chiropractic, and nutritional therapies.
Renee is married to Gene, has been blessed with 4 children, and has had
the privilege of fostering 21 children. Renee's hope is that she can help
others discover the many healing benefits of colon hydrotherapy, along with
the other inner cleansing modalities available at LifeCleanse. |

Certification provides consistency and promotes a high standard of care. Not
all colon hydrotherapists are certified. The International Association
for Colon Hydrotherapy is the leading international organization which has
set strict standards for training and practice. There are four levels
of certification ranging from Foundational Level I to Level Four Instructors. An
internationally sanctioned test is given to advance to each level.
I-ACTs Mission Statement reads, “The International Association for
Colon Hydrotherapy (I-ACT) heightens the awareness of the colon hydrotherapy
profession, ensures continuing and progressive education in the field of
colon hydrotherapy and implements professionalism beyond reproach.” For
