Welcome to the Intestinal Health Institute
Spa and School for Colon Hydrotherapy
“The field draws passionate individuals who wish to facilitate others in their intestinal health.”
Dear Student,
This note briefly outlines the new requirements of the curriculum for the Foundations of Colon Hydrotherapy training developed by the International Association for Colon Hydrotherapy and adopted June 23, 2008. If you have any questions, let me know. You will notice that I have an interview with each prospective student after receiving the initial application-enrollment form.
The prerequisites:
- a high school diploma, GED, equivalent
- completed a post secondary education A&P Class (3 semester hours ie 45 hours), any college, Community College, or state licensed course will be accepted. Additonally, the Board has approved two additional optional courses, one is online and 30 hours (2 semester units) and another is correspondent.
- a current CPR certificate
- receipt of 3 colonic sessions
The minimum number of hours for the A&P course is 30 hours.
To apply, you fill out both the application and enrollment forms together and submit them together with the required application fee plus the other requested documents and photo.
After I receive the application-enrollment form, I call you for an interview to review all the materials.
Once you are accepted, I initiate (if you choose to go with my specific course), the A&P and also, send you via mail the other texts that I include in the training and are read before coming. If you are local, I can arrange to have you pick them up at the office.
We can set a date to begin when you have completed all the prerequisites.
The training lasts two weeks, Monday through Friday, for 10 hours daily.
The curriculum includes:
5 hours Business Ethics/Office Procedures 5 hours Health and Sanitation 15 hours Anatomy and Physiology of GI system 5 hours Colon Hydrotherapy Theory, History, Practice 20 hours Complementary Modalities (diet, nutrition, supplements, herbs, cleansing programs, exercise) 50 hours Internship, perform 40 colonics 15 minute Presentation to be decided on GI A&P or Complementary Modality related to GI system
The cost of the training is $5,000. That includes the course in A&P, my handbook and a host of other books approximately 4 that I send when you are accepted.
Workouts are included in the training as part of the Complementary Modalities hours in the area of exercise. Workouts, for example, might include yoga, walking, hiking or swimming.
I look forward to hearing from you,
Sincerely,
Sheila Shea
