Ischia Craniosacral Therapy retreat
Retreat frame
Join us for a one-week intensive self-exploration retreat on the magical island of Ischia – a place where the body is listened to, water supports, and time begins to expand. In the gentle landscape surrounding a beautiful agriturismo, a space unfolds where touch, breath, and presence become sources of renewal.
Ischia, a small island off the coast of Naples, is interwoven with natural hot springs. Warm, mineral-rich water envelops the body, releases tension, and invites the nervous system to settle and rest. The sea, the lush vegetation, and the southern light create a vibrant field in which regeneration, movement, and inner alignment arise naturally.
In a five-day intensive course in multi-handed Craniosacral Therapy, you will immerse yourself—together with other therapists—in a subtle, shared field of perception. In small groups, you will receive two treatments each day and move freely between the warm thermal pools and the quiet treatment tables. Hands, water, and breath weave into a rhythmic dialogue that invites the body to remember, regulate, and open.
This retreat is an invitation to learn through the body—through touch, through being held by water, and through mindful presence. In community with other therapists, a space for regeneration, somatic exploration, and new experiences emerges. A time to arrive more fully in your own body, to deepen therapeutic perception, and to connect with the living, fragrant island of Ischia.
Il Giardino del Nonno offers the ideal setting for this: a place to slow down, to sense deeply, and to turn toward yourself with loving attention.

The agritourismil Giardino del Nonno a Sant’Angelo d’Ischia
Il Giardino del Nonno is a charming, family-run agriturismo, nestled in a dreamlike landscape with sweeping views of the sea. For three generations, the art of hospitality has been nurtured here with dedication and warmth. The property is an oasis of peace and relaxation—a retreat for nature lovers who appreciate silence, simplicity, and authenticity. Thanks to its ideal location, the agriturismo is just 200 meters from the famous Fumarole Beach and about a 20-minute walk from the square of the picturesque village of Sant’Angelo. The path to reach it winds along a beautiful trail, which is already part of the experience.
