Laurel might enjoy her job, some of which includes colonics, which she cheers, more than anyone I know. Her passion is to heal and to help and her motivation is both personal, she had to take charge of her health after numerous surgeries, antibiotics and opioid painkillers, and it’s rooted in the historical, the traditional and the spiritual. As she says, the most common refrain from her patients is, “that makes sense.” And it does make sense on a personal, emotional and cellular level.
