Created by reflexologists for reflexologists, this Equilibrio retreat brings us together in a beautiful and tranquil setting, to learn more about maintaining women’s health in balance. We are proud and excited to have Hagar Basis with us again in 2019, following a fantastic and joyous retreat with her in May 2017.

April reflexologists’ retreat

Your day begins with a Yoga & meditation session; breathing in the fresh mountain air & soaking up the stunning views.

Following a delicious breakfast, workshops will focus on the theme of women’s health. The week will also include a workshops on the use of herbs to support women through the different stages of life and self-care techniques and information which you can share with clients or simply adopt for yourself. Hagar will offer two half day workshops introducing potent and effective techniques to promote balance and wellbeing.

All activities are optional, which means you can take the opportunity to fully relax and recharge, selecting the activities that best meet your needs in that moment.

Delicious and healthy meals are provided by the dedicated kitchen staff. There is plenty of time to explore the stunning mountain location and to enjoy the centres facilities.

Prices

There is a 10% early-bird discount for guests paying in full 4 months before the retreat begins. The price includes 6 nights accommodation in a twin shared room (single occupancy available on request with supplement cost), three meals a day, daily yoga & meditation classes, four workshop sessions, treatment exchange sessions, 2 complimentary holistic treatments and full use of the centre facilities including the outdoor pool.

It does not include flights or transfers.

Detailed Timetable

Each day starts by nurturing your physical and mental well being. These sessions are suitable for everyone from beginners to advanced and individual requirements can be accommodated for.

Like the rest of the programme this session is optional, so if your needs are better served by staying in bed that’s fine too.

The focus in the kitchen is on tasty and health-giving meals. Each day will be an opportunity to experience and gain information about eating well.

Workshops given by Hagar Basis and Equilibrios holistic health practitioners

The team section on this page gives you more details about the workshops.

Making full and fantastic use of the abundant local and homegrown vegetables, local olive oil, cheeses and other local produce.

Two treatments from top quality bodywork practitioners are included in the Equilibrio experience. As well as relaxing, energising and balancing you, you will gain or increase your first hand knowledge of these therapies. As part of the Equilibrio team, these practitioners will be on hand at other times during the week to share their knowledge with you in a relaxed and informal way.

There will also be time and space in this session to team up with one of the Equilibrio reflexologists or other participants for a treatment swap and more in depth sharing should you chose to do so. Whether newly qualified or an experienced reflexologist, learning from and sharing knowledge with peers can be interesting and rewarding. Experiencing each others techniques and discussing methods of treatment allows us the opportunity to look at things in a different way. It can be a great way to build confidence in our own skills and empower us as therapists, especially if we are working in practice on our own or returning to reflexology after a break.

Thursday morning will be free and is your opportunity to explore the wider area, go hiking or horse-riding, visit the local town market or the mountain villages. Your host Anna will be available to organise any trips you would like to take.

This is also the time to swim, walk, sleep in the sun, to breathe in the beautiful mountain air and to fully relax. There are many interesting books in the library which you can borrow during your stay.

Another culinary delight, also including a sumptuous and surprisingly healthy desert.

Evenings are free time for star gazing, moonlight swimming, chatting or just hanging out.
