OUR MODALITIES
|
Our modalities to achieve detoxification and successful lifestyle changes can be grouped under three different types of approaches:
- Mind-body medicine
- Nutritional detoxification
- Hydrotherapy
Mind body medicine deals with changing values and habits to adopt and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Nutritional detoxification and hydrotherapy are procedures that allow toxins to be removed from the tissues and eliminated from the body. While at our center you will have the opportunity to experience a few of the following techniques that will work for you.
1. MIND BODY MEDICINE
Mind-body medicine focuses on the interactions between the brain, mind, body, and behavior, and on the powerful ways in which emotional, mental, social, spiritual, and behavioral factors can directly affect health. It emphasizes modalities that enhance each person's capacity for self-knowledge and self-care. At Hawaii Naturopathic Retreat Center the intervention strategies that we are using promote physical, emotional and mental health. Some methods are self sufficient such as journaling or co-counseling, while others such as cognitive behavioral therapy, Gestalt Therapy, relaxation, yoga, meditation, lifestyle counseling, spiritual counseling, prayer, laughter therapy, group support are included in our program. Some treatments are optional such as Reichian breath work, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), the work of Byron Katie, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), massage therapy and bodywork.
Certain mind-body intervention strategies listed here, such as group support and laughter therapy, are well integrated into conventional care. While they are referred to as mind body medicine, they are not considered to be complementary and alternative medicine.

2. NUTRITIONAL DETOXIFICATION
Nutritional detoxification and fasting eliminates addictions, bad habits and unhealthy thought patterns.
Detoxification / fasting is a medical procedure, restoring homeostasis, strengthening the immune system and healing many illnesses
Detoxification is excellent for everybody. After all our body detoxifies every night when we sleep. Detox is a natural process. Supervised detoxification is used either to overcome addictions, to regain health and recover from disease, or preventively to attain a high state of health, high vitality and longevity.
During fasting and nutritional detoxification, drugs, toxic substances and toxic unhealthy foods become naturally unattractive. Fasting is an ideal time to be introspective and honest with oneself. It is conducive to quiet observation of thought patterns and values.
Nutritional detox and fasting is surgery without a knife. It allows nature and her healing power to take control of our being and do her cleansing and repair work.

3. HYDROTHERAPY
Hydrotherapy involves the use of water for soothing pains and treating disease symptoms. Its use has been recorded in ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman civilizations. Egyptian royalty bathed with essential oils and flowers, while Romans had communal public baths for their citizens. Hippocrates prescribed bathing in spring water for sickness. A Dominican monk, Sebastian Kneipp, again revived it during the 19th century in the US. His book My Water Cure in 1886 was published and translated into many languages. The first naturopathic physicians, at the turn of the century used hydrotherapy as a major treatment for illness. In Europe, water has along history of use for all sorts of ailments in particular rheumatic disease. Clinics built on the sea shore use sea water while other facilities built on hot springs use mineral water, for their medical value.
Sea water, acidic water and brackish water are all used in our therapies for relaxation and more precise physical therapy treatments for conditions such as arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or spinal cord injuries, spasticity, stroke or paralysis. Relaxation is promoted from just floating in warm water, enjoying the caress of the soft breeze. Deeper emotional work may be accomplished in water such as facing fears and deepening trust. Our Kapoho sanctuary has been chosen for its location in the middle of tidal pools and natural geothermal pools. It is our favorite location for watsu sessions

ADDICTION RECOVERY
- COCAINE -
I had been doing drugs heavily for 16 years and no rehab or therapist could change me.
I was too full of toxins for the twelve-step program to ever work on me. I needed to clean my body out so that I could feel normal enough to fight the desire to do drugs.
Dr Baylac awakened me.
I have remained cocaine free now for 2 years (2008)....
