At Loodus BIOSPA, every detail has been designed to nurture both body and soul. The supportive, deeply restorative environment and genuinely caring people create the perfect conditions for a true reset — one that has the power to transform your entire life for the better. I honestly cannot remember the last time I felt this light, joyful, and well as I did during the therapeutic fasting retreat. Nor can I recall ever being cared for so attentively. I also felt embraced like part of a large family — completely at home.
The interior design of the building and every treatment space was exceptionally tasteful. Thought had clearly gone into even the smallest details to ensure guests felt both comfortable and aesthetically inspired. Soft, calming music flowed through the corridors and treatment rooms. The wellness refreshment table offered infused water, a selection of herbal teas, and flaxseed jelly. Surrounded by beautifully maintained nature, I spent time walking the forest trails, admiring blooming spring flowers and peaceful ponds.
I had actually begun fasting at home one day before arriving. My first day at BIOSPA was spent settling in, exploring the house, and getting acquainted with the treatments and wellness rituals on offer. I went for a walk and later took a dose of bitter salts, enduring the rather unpleasant effects for a few hours — but it already felt as though my body had begun cleansing itself.
On the morning of the second day, I made my way somewhat shakily to my first treatment. Seeing how weak I felt, the staff gave me the tiniest wooden spoonful of honey to lick. It made a remarkable difference almost immediately, and after the morning exercises outdoors and a walk in nature, I already felt much stronger. The first fasting mornings tend to be the hardest, as circulation naturally slows during sleep.
My days became filled with treatments, activities, and genuine care. My body grew completely free of pain and my mind became lighter and clearer. The third morning was again a little more challenging, but as the day unfolded, the feeling of lightness returned, and relaxing in the sauna and pool became pure pleasure. I regretted choosing only the 3-day introductory package instead of the full 6-day programme.
I continued fasting at home afterwards, following the guidance I had received from BIOSPA on how to safely transition out of the fast. I left with complete certainty that I would return. Therapeutic fasting feels like something that should become a natural and regular part of life.
Warm wishes, and see you again soon!
