Medically Guided Detox & Wellness Retreat in Bodrum, Turkey

A typical day starts at 8.00am. You'll do a morning nature walk, then yoga or meditation, then breakfast — which on a detox programme means juices, herbal teas and supplements rather than a buffet. Mid-morning brings a doctor or nurse check: blood pressure for anyone with hypertension, and a consultation slot if you need one. Therapies follow — colon cleansing with the 'Angel of Water' system, oxygen therapy, Turbosonic, Luminette light therapy, and any IV drips your programme includes. Lunch is plant-based and mostly raw. Afternoon classes alternate between fitness and yoga, with education lectures and raw vegan food workshops filling the gaps. Evening is a second yoga or grounding meditation session, then dinner and an early night. Infrared sauna, steam room, Turkish hammam, gym and pool are open daily and included.

The medical side is what separates this from a yoga-and-juice week. Every guest fills in a health form before arrival, which the doctor and programme coordinator read in advance. On day one you get a detailed presentation of the therapies and, based on what you've declared, a recommended programme — plus a body composition analysis so you can track change in fat, muscle and water rather than just weight. Guests with type-2 diabetes can be guided through 7 to 21 days of fasting or juice detox; the centre states 7 days for balancing blood sugar and hormones and at least 14 for lasting change. Guests on medication for blood pressure or cholesterol are checked each morning and are explicitly told not to stop their medication.

Not everyone comes for a hard fast. The GetFit & Healthy programme and the Healthy Nutrition programmes are for people who want structured exercise, clean food and coaching without full fasting. There's also a standard package covering only accommodation, meals and the daily included activities, on top of which you buy therapies. That flexibility means a couple can arrive together, one doing a strict detox and the other eating normally, sharing a room — the non-participating partner pays accommodation and facility costs only. Programs start at 8.00 am, and you can change programme mid-stay if it isn't working.

Accommodation is split between two buildings. The main centre holds 31 rooms — Standard at 20 m² and Suite at 40 m² — all with balcony and garden view, TV, DVD player, safe, hairdryer and free Wi-Fi. The separate beach centre, five to ten minutes on foot, has 14 boutique rooms, some with sea views, right on a private beach. Activities like yoga, fitness classes, infrared sauna, steam room and therapies happen at the main centre; juices, organic meals and massages at the beach. The centre is 45 minutes from Bodrum-Milas airport, and transfers can be arranged.

Food is entirely plant-based. Programmes include a detox or healthy nutrition meal plan — juices, raw vegan dishes, soups, and cooked vegan meals depending on which programme you're on — with supporting supplements and superfoods. Raw vegan food workshops teach you to make some of it yourself. There's also an à la carte option at the juice bar and restaurant for guests who want more choice. Rooms come with TV, DVD player, safe box, hairdryer and free Wi-Fi, and the pool, sun terrace, steam room, infrared sauna, Turkish hammam and gym are all on site and free to use. The centre has a pool and guests are encouraged to make use of free time.
