This purification process will guide the body in restoring digestive energies, boosting metabolism, and awakening your body’s capacity for renewal and self-regulation. The detox includes herbal medicine, Ayurvedic routines, yoga, delicious and nourishing foods, and daily body therapies— including lymphatic drainage, herbal scrubs, and water dance. You will also be immersed in sacred, shamanic rituals for 2 nights & embodiment practice. You’ll have plenty of free time to enjoy the clear, virgin beaches of Vieques or relax around our pool & grounds.

· JANZU AQUATIC THERAPY ·
For this particular Panchakarma, we are excited to incorporate Janzu therapy. We are aiming to weave the element of water into this retreat as a channel of release— as well as facilitating connection with the qualities of water in general. Through this therapy, you will be guided in exploration of the subconscious— seeking information deep within yourself, and bringing it to the surface to further grow, learn, and integrate into your life and being. We will be creating a dynamic dialogue between our Ayurvedic therapies and this profound aquatic modality to create profound somatic release.
We also have additional services for purchase now at registration for the duration of your stay. We also will be offering laundry services and have a stocked boutique for you to discover!
