Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat

About Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat

Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat is a health-focused center offering medical retreat services, natural detoxification, medically supervised fasting, and wellness programs. The center provides support for addiction and related mental health conditions, as well as 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 emphasizes natural detoxification and healthy living guided by spiritual values and whole-food nutrition. Her approach is shaped by her experience as a psychotherapist, a fasting practitioner, and a Gerson practitioner. She is presented not only as a clinician, but as a devoted healer and strong source of encouragement rooted in her own convictions.

As a prominent holistic treatment facility, Hawaii Naturopathic programs support biochemical, mental, and emotional cleansing through natural methods such as raw food nutrition, juice, fasting, exercise, infrared sauna, hydrotherapy, enemas, colon hydrotherapy, psychotherapy counseling, and meditation. The goal is to rebuild physical, emotional, and spiritual harmony using established medical traditions including acupuncture and massage therapy. The center also uses nutritional IV therapy to help strengthen the immune system and support lasting recovery. Program durations differ and are tailored to each person’s needs.

Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat Center is situated on the Big Island of Hawaii. The tropical climate stays mild, with temperatures generally in the upper 70s to 80s throughout the year. Depending on the program, guests can choose between two lodging options. The medical residential program is based in Hilo, while the special retreat and wellness offerings are held near Kealakekua Bay. Aloha Wellness Inn hosts the medical program in downtown Hilo, about 45 minutes from Volcanoes National Park, with scenic views. The Luna Inn supports healthy vacations, wellness detox, and fasting programs. Located roughly 300 feet above sea level, it offers wide-ranging views of the surrounding mountains, with convenient access to swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, and nearby hiking trails.
