Endorsements

Joyce Gerber is a healer and guide through many modalities. Her health practice is impeccable and what I got most from her was direct guidance. She listened to me like a top-of-the-line Life Coach/therapist and then responded with such depth of understanding that she hit the nail right on the head. By that I mean that Joyce recognized my issues when I could not see the forest through the trees. Not only that, her advice was perfect. Then she also came up with many ideas of how to handle my issues, gave me phone numbers and email addresses and directed me on what to say and how to handle the connections she gave to me. Joyce cares and has top notch connections and information. Her self-esteem is refreshing and I was strengthened by our conversation. I highly recommend her healing practices and her clear view for handling issues. She said something to me which I will never forget and I use it to help me daily. I put myself in her hands just for a conversation and got more of me out of it than ever. USE HER! Joyce is excellent. Thank You Joyce, Stephanie de Phillipo - 11/12/13
 
Joyce is quite simply a guru.  She is well-educated, has vast experience, and knows how to use nature to heal.  I am a part-time LA resident and learned about her recently when she participated in Evolve Out Loud, a weekend event which was created and led by Kyle Cease.  She shared authentic and powerful health truths while on stage.  I did some research on her and was impressed with her credentials.  She has a broad health and wellness expertise and specific services that make a major impact on anyone’s return to health, or in my case, boosting of good health.  
I especially like that she provides guided grocery store tours.  We are all creatures of habit and helping us change our grocery list is a powerful way to rapidly improve health. Making this change on my own was too hard.  In 2010 I was retrained on shopping when my mother battled off a cancer recurrence naturally. I needed the proof to believe.  Joyce has many services in line with this that can benefit all types of people.  By watching my mom heal I learned about the body's natural inter-functional multi-system design and that a key factor is how well our body can consume food, then utilize it, then eliminate waste.  
I've been interested in helping my body eliminate built-up waste ever since.  It's logical that years of refined and fried foods combined with environmental pollutants allow our bodies to build up toxins. It makes sense that cleaning up my digestive and waste system allows my body to better use the good foods I now consume, as well as eliminate my occasional junk food treats.  Colon Hydrotherapy kept coming up as a key tool for doing this.  My doctor and other health-centric friends were against it.  So, I decided to discuss this with Joyce and became more confident given her experience.  Last week I took the plunge and bought my 1st Colon Hydrotherapy session which included a probiotic replenishment.  No looking back now :) Here’s to our health!

I've known Joyce some years now. When I first met her, I invited her onto my radio show and found her to be extremely knowledgeable about health, wellness, and nutrition.  Because her show was so interesting, I invited her back.  When I was 21 days into a 28-day detox program, I requested one of her famous colon cleanses (it was my first one).  It was highly recommended as part of the program and I'm extremely happy I did.  She is in this area also knowledgeable, extremely gentle, efficient and explains all parts of the process so I was not wondering what to expect.   I went back again a second time 3 months later because I trust Joyce to do the right thing by me.  I would definitely recommend Joyce for colon hydrotherapy, especially if you are unsure or nervous.  I would also recommend her for consulting for getting optimal nutrition, especially for overcoming chronic issues.  I don't know anyone as thorough as she is in both these areas (and I interview a lot of health experts!).

I've had so many gut issues. A friend recommended Joyce Gerber to me. I made an appointment for a colonic, and that did that make a difference. She also advised me about eating certain foods, which I'm following and getting results. She also recommended some supplements that have gotten really good results. Thank you, Joyce, really appreciate your guidance!  Michael M - 10/21/2019
 
I was searching for an immune boost during these trying times when I came across Joyce and discovered much more than I was looking for in a few short months I was eating organic plant-based food with supplements boosting my immune system regenerating my energy modifying my colon health and was able to eliminate medication I had been taking for years to regulate my blood sugar. Joyce is the best coach caring more than she is compensated for. Highly recommend to anyone interested in improving their well-being.  Richie A. - 10/4/2020
 
 
I was looking for guidance on restoring my health through proper nutrition and correcting nutritional deficiencies and I'm so grateful I found Joyce almost 2 years ago. She continues to guide me and has become a good friend and mentor to me. Her knowledge and experience in her field is truly impressive and her passion is felt and witnessed in the way she lives her life and handles her clients - with professionalism, warmth and genuine care. I highly recommend her.   Erin S. - 9/23/21

I have worked with Joyce for many years and have always found her to be knowledgeable, positive and hopeful. She has a solid and clear understanding of how the body works and why she recommends different nutritional products or healing methods and is able to explain that to those she works with. She is totally committed to guide you in your journey of healing. She has made herself available to me to answer any concerns or questions I might have when they come up. I have been to many health practitioners over the years but Joyce’s compassion, knowledge and commitment to my healing make her stand above the others. I highly recommend her if you are serious and committed to your own healing and well-being. She also has a wicked sense of humor which lightens things up along the way.  Joyce walks the walk herself and has openly shared her own experience with me which I have found informative and encouraging. A thumbs up from me!!  Eileen S. - 9/26/2021
