The Mango Retreat program

The Mango Retreat Program is an intensive five-day, live-in program designed to familiarize participants with the most effective therapies available. Emphasis is placed on the coupling of therapies of proven clinical effectiveness with the body's native ability to self repair.  Theories, hypotheses, and speculations are kept to a minimum.

 

We limit the number of participants to three per week. The atmosphere is relaxed and very informal. Kitchen facilities (including juicers) are on site.

 

The program was named after the street where the house--where the Retreats were orginally held--is located: Mango Drive, Del Mar, California.  It was very strategically located near pharmacies, organic supermarkets, and many international restaurants. Even the beaches of the Pacific ocean, ware in walking distance. Del Mar, California is an upscale coastal community contiguous with the city of San Diego.

 

Health First, Naturally decided to retain the program name even when we thought it more efficient and effective if 

 

We initiate a detoxification and replenishment program. We review medical records and help orchestrate an individualized treatment program that can fit within budgetary constraints. We try to help the program participants get started immediately with the practical aspects of the program.

 

As availability permits we bring in noted speakers, clinicians, and researchers; as time permits we conduct a practicum where we teach participants kitchen-laboratory methods to restore their own health.
