About Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat
Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat is a center that specializes in medical retreat programs, natural detoxification, supervised medical fasting, and wellness programs. They treat addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions along with autoimmune disorders, cancer, chronic fatigue, diabetes, chronic pain, lyme disease, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and eating disorders. “Dr. Baylac founded the Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat Center in 2003 on the Big Island of Hawaii. The retreat’s focus is on natural detoxification and healthy lifestyle lead by spiritual principles and whole food nutrition. Her current work bears the influence of her prior practice as a psychotherapist, a fasting practitioner and a Gerson practitioner. She is more than a doctor or a therapist, she is a dedicated healer. She is a powerful motivator who pulls her strength from her own truth.”
As one of the leading holistic treatment facilities, Hawaii Naturopathic programs focus on “biochemical, mental and emotional detoxification, using natural methods such as raw food nutrition, juice, fasting, exercise, infrared sauna, hydrotherapy, enemas, colon hydrotherapy, counseling psychotherapy and meditation. Physical, emotional and spiritual balance is restored with the ancient, time-tested medical traditions of acupuncture and massage therapy.” They also utilize nutritional IV therapy to strengthen the immune system and aid in long-term recovery. All programs vary in length and are unique to the specific needs of the individual.
