Joshi Rest and Rejuvenation Retreat October 2009

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

Having just returned from a very successful rest and rejuvenation retreat in October Joshi is again offering another retreat at the end on November.
 
The combination of beautiful weather, dedicated staff and amazing surroundings made the retreat an unforgettable experience. Guests enjoyed lounging by the pool whilst having manicures, pedicures and foot massages, treatments enjoyed whilst on the retreat included Haman scrubs in the exclusive Riad Spa, Thai and shiatsu massages in the lush gardens of the Riad, relaxing massages in the privacy of guests bedrooms, private consultations with Joshi on a daily basis, beauty treatments done by the on site beauty therapists that included, facials, hair dressing, scalp, neck and shoulder massages. Our female guests particularly enjoyed the Devi Ritual which consisted of a deep tissue massage whilst a bath of milk and infused oil is prepared for a deeply relaxing experience and finally followed by an assisted siesta ultra relaxation massage.
 
The retreat was also a great way to shed those extra unwanted pounds
All guests were on Joshi’s Holistic detox whilst on the retreat. The whole Joshi supplement range was available and all meals were wonderfully prepared by the Riad Chefs and featured meals from the Joshi Holist Detox Recipe Book.
Personal Training and Yoga was available on a daily basis and with a combination of good healthy food, wonderful treatments and effective training we had guests who lost up to 7 pounds at the retreat.
 
Not only were they looking great but feeling so much more energetic and positive making the retreat and ideal getaway to truly rest and rejuvenate your self. 

Testimonials
My wife and I just wanted to express our thanks for a wonderful weekend that completely exceeded our already very high expectations (as you described it so well in advance). I am not going to launch into a list of superlatives but simply express our gratitude to the staff at the villa and your team all of who were excellent each in their own way (even my personal yoga teacher Francis). We met some wonderful people. Most of all however we wanted to thank you personally for your leadership and your personal care - from the idea, the execution down to the smallest detail were all a result of the competence and passion you demonstrated first hand throughout.. The personal touch made all the difference throughout the stay and you really were the Perfect Host.

When Dr Joshi mentioned the retreat it sounded wonderful and I so needed a break so I came. Wonderful didn’t do the retreat justice! Everything was exquisite - from the magnificent surroundings to the massages, yoga and beauty treatments. It lasted five days but was more restorative and beneficial than 2 weeks away. The retreat will stay with me long after I return home - not just the wonderful memories but more importantly the life changing habits and knowledge I’ve acquired.

Exceeded expectations - an oasis of calm and serenity which aided the detox process infinitely. The trainers and staff met every need and tailored everything specifically to your body and needs. A wonderful experience - beyond anything that the brochure of the Riad or the leaflet from the Joshi Clinic could explain. Feels like I have been away for weeks - not just 5 - 6 days. Don’t think about it just go! Thank you very much to everyone. There was not one thing that I disliked or would change. Will definitely be back for more. Thank you again.

Thank you so much  - I feel so relaxed and pampered. The Riad is exquisite and magical. I have seen a Red Crescent moon suspended in the sky and had rose petals in my milk bath. There has been a wonderful balance between beauty, rest, therapies, good company and education. The food was amazing and there was such a large variety of therapies. Thank you so much.
