Ann Wigmore Natural Health

This is not the Hilton. It is not meant to be. The environment is incredible. The staff is super supportive. Everyone is very kind. The atmosphere is simple and intimate. It is easy to connect with people here and have amazing experiences.

The teachers and staff at Ann Wigmore are wonderful - genuine, caring, and helpful. They really seem to want the best for guests - not interested in their own aggrandizement or enrichment.||I went for a cleansing not a healing, but found that my nails were far stronger than they had ever been after my 2-week stay. Further, I have had chronic issues with congestion, post-nasal drip, and cough, and these seemed better at the end of the cleanse. A classmate also reported a great deal of relief from her chronic congestion and coughing. Unfortunately, I have reverted to old eating patterns, and these benefits have reversed - so I need a refresher!||I’d hoped for some relief from my longstanding osteoarthritis, but was advised that a longer detox period might be needed to help with that. I had also expected to have increased energy, but we were told that during detox it was typical to be more fatigued than usual. We did have daily yoga and exercise, however, which I loved and almost everyone participated in.||One longtime Ann Wigmore attendee was a woman in her late 80’s who was quite a dynamo. She reported having slipped back into some poor eating habits, and having a health crisis that left her unable to walk. Her husband wanted to take her right to the hospital, but she insisted instead that she needed to go immediately back to Ann Wigmore. She arrived in a wheelchair, was wheeled to her classes, and began quickly improving. Within a few days, she was not only out of her wheelchair, but was up dancing!||The meals at Ann Wigmore were packed with nutrition, and included seed yogurt and sauerkraut to help with digestion. I ate far less than I do normally, but always felt satisfied at the end of a meal, and never felt hungry after or between meals. I shed quite a bit of weight, as I think all my classmates did, but felt better for it.||The room I was in was simple but comfortable - perfect for my needs.||I loved getting back to swimming and walking along the beach, with a warm ocean beach right next to our classroom building.||I’ve been remiss at not posting my review sooner, but I was reminded of it as I was working on how and when I can return to Ann Wigmore for longer, as I so much hope to do!

A friend of the family recommended The Ann Wigmore Institute when I was diagnosed with a serious illness. I had never heard of it or what they do. What an incredibly awesome surprise it was. The institute offers flexible schedule options and loads of education. The services are professional and rival many high end spas I have visited. The main standout here, though, is the people. I rarely see such committed and passionate people working together for the benefit of the guests. They were beautiful people , well-educated and genuinely concerned about helping you reach better health in a natural way while in a wonderfully peaceful setting. Caroline is amazing. She is accessible and friendly. Always looking to help any way she can. I’m still on my recovery journey, so I wish I could rave about them having healed me already… But, without question, it was thanks to Caroline, her staff and her program, that I was able to jump start my battle. I am all the better for it. I lost 15 pounds in one week and promised her I would keep the diet regimen they taught me for cleansing and detox. I followed it to the letter for a month afterward. Lost 30lbs. total. I was also free of some pre-existing symptoms I had experienced when I arrived there. It changed my life - truly. Now - disclaimer - this is not the Ritz. It’s not a Ramada Inn either. It’s a wonderfully maintained property that offers a wealth of education, charm and healing - and does so with the highest professionalism and sincerity, in a lovely rustic setting. Thank you Caroline for all the lessons - and for having assembled an awesome team. For me it’s a definite re-visit.
