ACHIEVABLE. PRACTICAL. SUSTAINABLE.
THE RETREAT
ABOUT THE RETREAT
This is the retreat for finding solutions to complex, on-going health issues, in particular stubborn gut health problems. Natural and holistic therapies are applied in a pragmatic way, empowering the individual with the help and knowledge to thrive again.
The Retreat is tailored to a single visitor in order to provide the most tranquil, personal and bespoke care. We offer a range of tried and tested, effective cleanse protocols as well as an accommodation only.
We offer in-depth health analysis to design a juicing and detox protocol for your needs. A broad spectrum of additional treatments is available on site.
Identify. Understand. Empower.
Our philosophy
At Torside Health & Wellness we believe that your health is as individual to you as you are. We treat holistically, that is to say we treat you as a whole. Because of this, we address all of your symptoms and trace them all back to the root cause. Once that is identified, the path to healing can begin.
This philosophy means that your experience at the retreat will be personalised to you, taking into account not only your health but also your lifestyle, diet, personality, trauma history and so on. Director Pia Barratt likes to get to know her clients well and will have an in depth discussion with you in order to ensure the most beneficial programme is developed for you.
Guests will leave revived, positive and empowered with a clear understanding of their health and wellness requirements, having begun their journey to better health and vitality.
The team at Torside recognise that embarking on your journey to better health is not always easy and are here to support and guide you.
Torside’s south-facing grounds range from formal borders to wildlife ponds, woodland and kitchen gardens. The diversity of the gardens bring many aspects of interest throughout each season and offer visitors the chance to surround themselves with the healing strength of nature all year round.
