Gretchen

Gretchen Clark is an expert in the field of colon hydrotherapy. With 25 years of experience, she is the sole owner and operator here at A Happy Colon.

Gretchen’s previous careers include working in corporate America, a licensed hairdresser, 9.5-year Navy veteran and a stay-at-home mom.  Guided by her own desire to heal emotionally, grow spiritually and a need for optimal physical health. Gretchen started a new career in Colon hydrotherapy and Holistic Health.

 
Gretchen was trained to become a colon hydrotherapist under an apprentice program right here in San Diego. Being taught only about the physical and mechanical aspects of a colon hydrotherapy session Gretchen could see there was much more going on for her clients.
Fascinated by this she wanted to expand her knowledge and learn more about the body, mind, and emotions connections to be able to better support her clients in a release.


Gretchen received her Holistic Health Practitioner Certification at Body Mind College, school for massage and holistic health. Here the school’s philosophy is HEALER, HEAL THYSELF; you can’t give what you haven’t got. With this in mind Gretchen dove in and embraced every healing opportunity for herself.  Gretchen completed classes such as Massage Technician, Pathology, Passive Joint, Inner Child Workshop, Reiki 1 & 2, Craniosacral Therapy, Aromatherapy, Cleansing, Nutrition, Hot Stone Massage, Reflexology, Holistic Physiology, and Personal Mental/Emotional Clearing. These are just a few of the classes completed that helps Gretchen to have a better understanding of her clients today. Not a day goes by where she does use the life skills taught to her at Body Mind College. She perpetually continues working on her own personal growth and healing by continuing to take classes.


I love being able to connect with my clients on a deeper level, if they are open to it. This is really where the healing begins. I see the value firsthand in each and every colon hydrotherapy session. Helping clients to understand what makes them “whole” is their connection to them body, mind and emotions. If you are open and interested in your healing then I am ready to work with you.
