Living Valley Springs Health Retreat - Absolute Health Retreat

How does it begin?

Your Personal Consultation

Once you have settled into your room, enjoyed a delicious lunch and met some of the staff, it will be time to look at how we can help you get the absolute most out of the program.

Two of our Naturopaths will conduct an assessment to evaluate your lifestyle habits and present state of health. They will also discuss your dental, spinal, hormonal, respiratory, emotional health, medication, supplementation and anything else that may assist us in taking you to optimum health.

The Orientation

Orientation on your first day will consist of a relaxing guided walk along one of our many lush green trails.

Next is a relaxing Russian Steambath to sooth away the aches and pains. After sunset you will attend an orientation lecture followed by a detailed presentation on the Living Valley Spring’ philosophy on health.

The Cleansing Process

The Secret of success of the Living Valley Springs program is the short periods of juice fasting, during which your body is encouraged to eliminate toxins through a variety of simple therapies.

Our bodies are designed to heal themselves if we provide the right conditions. For three days you will enjoy refreshing vegetable and fruit juices. These drinks will provide concentrated nutrition while relieving the body of its need to process complex protein, fats and starches. Your stomach, pancreas and liver will feel like they are having a holiday. Gentle laxative drinks will encourage bowel elimination. Simple, but serious, the benefits will amaze you.

Each Day Gets Better

Most mornings start with a cleansing tonic, followed by a protein drink, then personalised treatments.

After learning all about lifestyle, longevity, and quality of life, you may enjoy a walk, a therapeutic sunbath, a swim in the pool or a treatment.

Juices are served regularly throughout the day and all guests are encouraged to drink plenty of water.

The Food - Organic, Tasty and Nutritious

A delicious raw lunch will be served on Wednesday to break the fast. Then home-style vegetarian meals will give you total satisfaction on Thursday, Friday, Monday and Tuesday.

A vegetarian cooking class will also be conducted with recipes made available for you to take home. Several cookbooks are available for purchase.

The Ultimate Purification Commences

After two and a half days of re-fueling the system, your body will be ready for a gentle yet very effective deep tissue cleanse.

Throughout Saturday, Sunday and Monday morning, you will once again enjoy the refreshing juices in addition to a herbal cleansing of the deepest tissues in your system. Then after three fabulous meals, you will be fit, strong and ready to take on the world.

In addition to regular lectures, Living Valley Springs provides a demonstration of simple home remedies, daily Russian steam baths, bushland walking trails, a climb up a nearby Mountain on Saturday morning (optional), counselling (additional cost), sound medical care, diagnosis and valuable lifestyle planning.

The Graduation from Living Valley Springs

After this thorough cleanse, you will be set on the right path. During your final consultation, your blood will be analysed, pH will be tested and a lifestyle plan will be created. You will be so happy because you will feel clean, strong, and mentally regenerated. You will be sent home with a lifestyle plan booklet which also includes other health information. Health videos along with superior health products will also be available for sale at our Health Shop.

You will also be awarded a Certificate in Lifestyle.

In 2003, I suffered a severe stroke. I lost mobility and was told by the doctors that I would never walk again, or move my left arm. I didn’t believe it! For four years I have searched to find the right people to help me.

In April 2007, I checked into Living Valley Springs for a 24 day programme. The attention I received and the results achieved were absolutely amazing. I extended my stay to 38 days, then to 52.

The naturopaths designed a programme to encourage the growth of new nerves. Physical therapies from Rodney and his team produced improvements every day. Personal training by Mark Smith was fantastic. I even did the emotional counselling package with Joanne. She can really get in touch with people. She provided practical ways to apply the healing principles in my life. The carers all excelled. Mark and Leanne were particularly wonderful. They even took care of my personal laundry needs.

The food - Unbelievable! Roger, Danny and Raelene, thankyou for adding so much love and skill to the meals, and for all the personal care that you provided for me. I have made so many friends, with the staff, and their loving families who often visited me and even invited me for meals. I can now walk long distances. I even climbed half way up Cooroora Mountain (with Rodney’s help). I can move my arm and hand again. I can even drink a glass of water with my left hand. Everyone was amazed when I lifted my left leg like a ballerina.

My system is clean and I feel healthier and happier than ever, thanks to Living Valley Springs.
