What are Detox Retreats for?

Detox & Weight Loss Programmes

A detox retreat offers its clients an opportunity to help their bodies lose weight and regain its sense of health and vitality. When a detox retreat is run by qualified professionals, guests can remove toxins, lose weight safely and re-establish a healthy metabolism through completing a proper, supervised weight loss and cleaning programme.

Our clients often arrive at Homefield feeling tired, toxic, overweight and stressed. They are often looking for a way to break cycles of “self-sabotage.” A detox retreat should symbolise a fresh start, a new beginning and a kick start to healthy weight loss. Did you know that the more fat you have, the more toxins your body retains? Unfortunately the higher the level of toxins, the harder it is for the client to lose weight on their own.

Guests can experience substantial amounts of weight loss during their detox at Homefield and often continue to lose weight as they implement new healthy food and life choices which we teach them during their stay.

Detoxing at home can prove to be challenging. Attending a dedicated detox retreat allows clients to let go of their world’s responsibilities and offers the space and time for the client to focus on their own health and well being. There are no temptations or distractions and Homefield’s experienced team support its guests with consideration and care, allowing the body to regain its balance. Clients often report that they are going home with” a brand new me!”

While many people think of detoxing as a modern day fashionable phenomenon, which “celebs” use to lose weight quickly, the act of detoxing is a concept as old as time itself! Testimonials to the benefits of fasting or detoxing can be traced back to Ancient Egypt and has been followed through the centuries by some of our greatest healers such as Hippocrates, through to the modern day Naturopathic principles followed by Dr Bernard Jenson and Anne Wigmore.

A detox is an ideal opportunity to give the digestive system a break, thereby helping the body enjoy a rest from its daily tasks. This allows energy to be diverted to cleansing and healing, allowing the whole body to focus on clearing out its toxic wastes. The longer the fast or detox programme, the deeper the detoxification will be. Many people use a detox to gain spiritual awareness. It is certainly true and a lightness can be experienced on an emotional level as the body becomes lighter from within.

At Homefield Grange, we pride ourselves on delivering results driven, fun and educational weight loss & detoxification residential packages. Our programmes are continually evolving over time, uniting ancient wisdom with a modern day perspective, ensuring that we deliver to our clients a complete and balanced approach to weight loss, detoxing and maintaining long term health and well being.
