Discovering Benefits Of A Sedona Wellness Retreat

By Donna Clark


When looking for guidance, inspiration and healing, Arizona has a lot to offer. More specifically, visiting a Sedona Wellness retreat can provide all this and more. For, Arizona has the only residential based educational retreat which offers juicing, cleansing, detoxing and other programs.

As these facilities are unlike traditional spas, hotels or resorts, rest and relaxation is also at the forefront of every stay. For, designed more like an upscale bed and breakfast, the focus is on healthy living, education, medical testing and monitoring along with nutritional talks and demonstrations to help balance body, mind and spirit. In addition, depending on the outcome of an initial intake exam, there are a number of wellness programs and therapies to fit every need.

While some guests are looking to lose weight in order to create happier and healthier lives, others are merely looking for solace and contemplation. Most of these facilities provide a comfortable cozy atmosphere with limited guests in each program. As a result, most guests leave these retreats having reached desired goals related to overall health and well being.

In fact, one wellness plan offers a residential educational program which provides detoxification and cleansing through a diet of vegetables, fresh fruit and juices along with gourmet meals prepared with organic ingredients. When it comes to lodging, guests receive a private bedroom and bathroom along with daily health and monitoring checks by medical staff trained in holistic medical practices.

In addition to a wellness plan, some wellness centers also offer water and health fasting retreats. Fasting while having become popular over the last several decades is nothing new. In fact, it is an ancient and common practice in many cultures. In most cases, individuals fast to promote positive spiritual, mental and physical health.

For the last fifty years, a number of efforts have been made to create an organized approach to facilitate a self-healing process through fasting. Most often, retreats offering this type of program guide guests through each phase of the program from an initial intake exam through follow-up visits. After which, staff remain available by way of email and telephone to answer any questions and address concerns individuals may have once returning home.

Individuals interested in visiting a health and wellness center, whether on a residential basis or otherwise can often obtain a customized plan. Most often, when desiring this type of plan, the retreat will connect the individual with a free doctor consultation to see how the retreat can best help the interested party reach personal goals during a stay. It should be noted that most all retreats require guests to be self-sufficient and reliant and if extra care is necessary, the individual is required to pay for, and obtain such help without the assistance of retreat staff.

Most retreats require guests be self-reliant, self-sufficient and be able to take care of all personal care without assistance. In addition, most all retreats require guests to sign a waiver stating that the facility is not responsible for any accidents, illnesses or injuries which may occur during or following a stay at the facility. Otherwise, the facility could be held responsible if an accident, illness or injury were to occur during or following a stay.
