About Annette Barber
Annette has always had an interest in health care and in helping others. She graduated from Nazareth College with a BS in Biology. She became interested in natural healing in the early 1990’s due to health issues in her family. She began working at Natural Alternatives in 2004 and has been immersed in natural health modalities ever since.
Annette has furthered her education by attending classes and seminars in BioEnergetic Medicine, completing her Certified Natural Health Professional (CNHP) training, receiving her certification in Lymphatic Decongestive Therapy with the Photon Sound Beam device and by completing training as a certified Colon Hydrotherapist at the Cathy Shea International School of Colon Hydrotherapy. Annette is a certified member of I-ACT (International Association for Colon Hydrotherapy) and G-PACT (Global Professional Organization for Colon Hydrotherapy).
Annette considers colon hydrotherapy to be one part of a complete holistic wellness program. She looks forward to assisting you on your pathway to vibrant health.
