Steam Rooms

We offer two gorgeous steam rooms for deep detoxification and relaxation – a private ladies-only steam room and a spacious co-ed steam room, both built with high-quality Finnish steam generators to ensure an authentic and consistent experience.

The benefit of taking a steam bath is its ability to boost and regulate the immune system by gently raising the body’s temperature to create a “false fever.” This is traditionally followed by exposure to cold water, which stimulates circulation and prompts the release of white blood cells from the bone marrow, enhancing immunity and supporting the body’s natural healing processes.

This contrast therapy creates a powerful hydrotherapy effect, helping to reduce inflammation, ease muscle tension, and promote overall vitality. Deep sweating also encourages the release of toxins through the skin, leaving you feeling lighter, cleansed, and rejuvenated.

The Health Shop

Our Onsite Health Shop – Located within the Harmony Health Centre, our health shop is a sanctuary of natural living. Here, you’ll find a thoughtfully curated range of healthy products, inspiring books, and beautiful gifts, all chosen to reflect the principles and values we hold close to our heart.

We stock a wide selection of practitioner-prescribed products, ensuring you can easily access the supplements and remedies your naturopath recommends.

In addition, we are proud to offer our very own Living Valley branded range of superfoods and wellness products. Specially created to support cleansing, detoxification, and healing, these products have been trusted by thousands of guests at our retreat since 1990.

Harmony Health Centre

Our Harmony Health Centre is home to our Naturopathic Room, where healing begins in a calm and supportive environment. Step through the glass sliding doors into the spacious reception area and make yourself comfortable in the waiting lounge.

For your refreshment, a herbal tea station and cool water are available. You’ll also find our Health Shop conveniently located within the centre, offering a selection of wellness products to support your journey to better health.

Grander Fresh Water Lap Pool

Our 20 Metre Lap Pool has been thoughtfully designed with your health and wellbeing in mind. The water is gentle and pure, reminiscent of swimming in a natural freshwater creek, thanks to our Grander Fresh Water System. This innovative system uses rods attuned to the rhythms of the moon and sun to create vibrational frequencies, producing water that is naturally rejuvenating and healing.

The Grander Freshwater Secret: Unlike conventional pools that rely heavily on chemicals and filtration, the Grander Conditioner works with natural biologics. By permanently structuring the water, it increases available oxygen and enhances beneficial probiotics, resulting in clean, vibrant water without harsh chemicals. 

Plunge Pool

Immerse yourself in the invigorating experience of our Grander fresh water plunge pool, thoughtfully positioned just outside our steam rooms. This refreshing cold-water plunge provides a powerful contrast to the heat of the steam bath, enhancing the hydrotherapy experience, stimulating circulation, and revitalising the body.

The purity and vitality of Grander-treated water further supports deep refreshment, leaving you feeling energised, balanced, and renewed.

Fire Pit

We gather around the fire pit for our Letting Go Ceremony, a powerful, visual, and practical process of releasing anything that may be holding you back. It’s a sacred time to let go of past hurts, pain, or negative influences, and to set your intentions for the future.

During your time at the retreat, take the opportunity to write letters, journal, or list the thoughts, emotions, or patterns you wish to release from your mind, body, and soul. Bring them to the fire and watch them burn, symbolically and permanently letting them go.

After the release, we welcome a local musician to sing and play by the fire. You are invited to join in for a sing-along, and requests are warmly encouraged, creating a joyful, communal experience. This ceremony is also a moment to focus on gratitude and embrace the incredible power of the law of attraction, opening your life to clarity, peace, and new possibilities.

Cold Plunge / Ice Bath

Cold water immersion supports recovery and vitality by helping reduce inflammation and muscle soreness, improve circulation, and boost energy and immune function. When used after a hot steam bath, the contrast significantly enhances circulation, supports detoxification, and amplifies the benefits of hydrotherapy.

This hot–cold combination also helps calm the nervous system, shift the body out of stress mode, and promote resilience, mental clarity, improved mood, and better sleep when practiced mindfully.
