Wealth of Knowledge & Information
“Almost two years ago I received a cancer diagnosis. Conventional medicine treatment methods have left me with a series of side effects; with treatment or management unavailable via this modality. In researching possible naturopathic avenues to get these symptoms under control and for cancer prevention treatments, I happened to come upon Joanne’s clinic.
Unknowingly, I stumbled upon a wealth of knowledge and information, and a truly caring caregiver. Joanne believes in empowering the individual to be able to understand the body’s signals for help. With her guidance and extreme patience I have embarked on a healing journey - physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Having seen improvement early on with colonics and herbal detox treatments, I look forward to proceeding with the suggested protocol that has been developed by her for my specific needs.
I feel extremely blessed to have found Joanne and am very thankful for what she has done for me and I know that I will continue to do.”

Dedicated & Informed
​
"It has become quite a rarity these days to find a truly genuine caregiver in either traditional and natural medicine. Joanne listens first and then attends to the issue(s) in a complete and rounded way, like encapsulating the problem and beginning healing and treatment from a 360 degree approach.
I have known her for 5 years and she has helped me tremendously with my elimination issues with relief through colonic irrigation, herbal soothers/anti-inflammatories and treatment venues. Anytime that I seek her care, I always feel up lifted as I leave.
​
She will only suggest protocols that she knows are trustworthy. The standard of her care is no less than how she would treat herself and with that comes the promise of healing, trust and hope.
She is a dedicated, informed and creative caregiver. I am privileged to know her."

Cares About Well-being
​
"I met Joanne when I contacted her clinic to get help with a few health issues that I was having. Joanne is very knowledgeable in so many areas and was able to guide me over the years to better health.
Joanne always goes above and beyond to help her clients. I feel fortunate to have found her as she cares so much about other people and their well-being. What I received in return cannot be measured by money. I am grateful for everything Joanne has done for me."

Patience & Understanding
​
"About six months ago I visited my Naturopath for a number of ailments and health concerns. After testing me, she strongly suspected that I had Candida. I would need a thorough detoxification, so she referred me to Joanne Brophy.
​
Over the years, with her numerous clients, Joanne has become very expert in the recovery of Candida.
As we worked together over the ensuing months to bring this condition under control, I began to realize that I had put myself in the hands of a thoroughly professional and committed health practitioner. Colonic Therapy was part of the cleansing process, along with a very strict diet, together with natural supplements.
​
During the following weeks and months, I learned a great deal from her. She had much patience in explaining and re-explaining elements of my program, how food and life choices all work together to create a healthy person. No question was too simple or ridiculous; she wanted me to learn and she cared that I did so.
​
Her mission is not only to help her clients to heal, but to educate them so that they are empowered to live healthy and fulfilling lives."

This was my first time experience having a colonic, and Joanne was just an absolute angel during the whole process. She makes you feel instantly relaxed, and gives you a tailored experience to your bodies needs. Her facility is clean, relaxing, and in a very convenient location. I am now a devout colonic regular and have never felt better! I keep raving to all my friends about her and they are now going to see her. Thanks Joanne xxCourtney Milan, Kitchener, ON

Wonderful service - highly recommend!Jessica B., St. Jacobs, ON
​
I’ve already recommended this service to family and friends. I felt so comfortable at my first colonic experience thanks to the lovely Joanne who put me right at ease with her warm personality and empathic manner. What could potentially have been an excruciatingly embarrassing experience was turned into one of fascination and self empowerment. Thank you! I’ll definitely be back .Diane Gerber, Kitchener, ON

I was quite nervous about having this treatment for the first time, but I was put at ease by Joanne, informed and reassured of everything she was doing. I feel so much better now, and trying to behave with my diet, breathing and drinking lots of water - it is my first day, but I hope to maintain this effort! I would recommend Joanne highly.M Cazalet, Ayr, ON

"Amazing colonic after two years absence with the lovely professional Joanne Brophy"J Costco., Kitchener, ON
​
“I had been having some gut issues for a while. I have had a few colonic hydrotherapy sessions with Joanne and they have made such a difference to me. I was feeling so bloated, sluggish and generally a bit ‘meh’ but colonic hydrotherapy changed everything. I had no idea I was so dehydrated from the inside out. I leave feeling like a different person. Joanne has so much knowledge to impart too – all in service of helping create gut health and happiness. Highly recommend Joanne... I would NEVER go anywhere else!”Clare W., Waterloo, ON

"As ever my session with Ruth was transformative. She is highly competent, knowledgable and professional with a calm easy presence. I highly recommend her"Lucy W., Cambridge, ON
​
"I have suffered with bloating over the years and decided to visit Joanne at her Clinic. In the first few weeks, my stomach was less bloated and was much flatter. My digestive system is now the best it has ever been and in addition, my sleep has improved which has led to much higher energy levels. This was an unexpected bonus so I am very happy to recommend Joanne."Amanda C​., New Hamburg, ON
​
"Joanne’s an amazing practitioner and therapist. I had several colonics with her. Joanne’s very holistic in her approach and tailors her therapy accordingly.

​
"Treatment was caring and empathetic as well as effective"Jennifer S., Waterloo, ON
​
"Joanne has been my colonic therapist for over 10 years. I had other therapists before her and she is honestly the best. She is very knowledgable and very intuitive which make her sessions very transformative. I used to suffer from IBS and after the first colonic session I went from daily pain to no pain for 3 weeks, eventually healing IBS completely. Colonics are not only very efficient way to eliminate toxins and healing physically but also emotionally. After each colonic I feel reenergised and with a lot of clarity. Ruth is very kind and welcoming making you feel at home. I strongly recommend her sessions".Marta K., Waterloo, ON
​
“Joanne is the best colonic practitioner out there, and believe me, I have tried many. I’ve been going to her regularly for 7+ years now.

I have recommended her to friends and family.”Julia Galloway, Kitchener, ON

​
I love our conversations and always feel inspired to introduce some positive changes after my sessions."I've been having treatments with Joanne on and off for past few years. She's just fabulous at creating a safe and comfortable environment. These therapies always bring the desired results. They help me with my skin condition but I also treat them as a preventive medicine. It's important to do a deep clean from time to time"B. Weber, Waterloo, ON
​
"Joanne was absolutely lovely, made me feel completely at ease, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Feel fantastic now"A. Bauman, Kitchener, ON
When I went to see Joanne I was pretty much at the end of my tether. I had had extremely severe constipation for several months to the extent that laxatives were not really working and the doctors seemed not to know what to do any more. I was nervous in the first session but Joanne put me at ease. She was warm and clearly very competent. After several sessions with her I was sorted and to my great relief my bowel movements were back to normal - I am very grateful to Joanne for her help.

Joanne is one of Waterloo's best kept secrets. Her knowledge and skill regarding hydrotherapy and cleansing is unsurpassed and her carefully selected team. Having had regular treatments for 10 months my skin, hair, eyes are now shining and I have regular bowel movements (this is a first). She has also given me invaluable advice re lifestyle and diet while I'm living with a chronic condition.

I love the genuine care and attention I received from Joanne, She is an excellent practitioner and I recommend her highly for Colonic Hydrotherapy.
C.F., Waterloo, ON
​
Ruth was great from day one and totally relaxed me before, during and after the treatment.
I have been going back regularly now and will continue to do so. It has totally changed my life and my eating habits. I now understand after many years of fluctuating weight and bad diets, the real meaning of 'Lifestyle Change' and have embraced it. I will never be on a diet again and value the health of my internal self as well as the outside. Joanne also introduced me to Epsom Salts which have helped with my relaxation and anxiety no end, and I invested in a really good juicer, and I now have a vegetable or fruit juice every morning. 🙂
J.S., Cambridge, ON
​​
Joanne has the perfect mix of professionalism and friendliness so you always feel really comfortable with her.
She is also very knowledgeable in terms of nutrition and can advise on any questions you have. Always a great experience and I would highly recommend Joanne for Colonic Hydrotherapy!
T.K., Elmira, Ontario
​
Seeing Joanne has changed my life, before meeting her I had appalling digestion and the pain I was in was starting to rule my life. She educated me in changing my approach towards food and really helped me to understand what to eat and drink and when. Since my session with Joanne I have followed her simple advice and have lost nearly a stone in weight and now I no longer store toxins in my body for long periods of time I feel much happier and full of energy. I would recommend Joanne to anyone, her straight talking no nonsense approach really made me pay attention and I am so grateful for her enhancing my life, thank you Joanne!
Zabina, Guelph, ON
​
Joanne has been my practitioner now for some 4+ years, initially for massage and now for Colonic, nutritional & all round health advice. Joanne is a generous & amazing healthcare professional who puts you to ease the moment you meet with her.
She is always up-to-date on her knowledge and full of tips and suggestions to improve and maintain my health (always take a note pad when you visit Joanne!). Following a recent very sluggish couple of weeks mentally and physically I booked to return for a couple of appointments, guidance and advice - very soon after the treatments and putting her advice into action I am through the dark patch and feeling my usual bright and light self. I'm very honest when I say my life is hugely improved by having Joanne in it.
