Press Release

In association with the Sanibel-Captiva Chamber of Commerce’s summer program, Sanibel Wellness has launched a new website, SanibelHealthRetreats.com.  The website brings together island businesses to offer vacation packages, workshops, and retreats that include accommodations, healthy meals, fitness, nutrition, health services, and island activities.
The program is in its initial phase of coordinating accommodations, products and services and is looking for more island individuals and businesses to participate by joining the group’s vendor list, or, by designing and hosting a retreat of their own.
A meeting of interested individuals and businesses is scheduled for Tuesday, August 26th from 12:00-1:30PM at Sanibel Community House at 2155 Periwinkle Way.  The intentions of  the meeting is to have an open discussion of ways of working together to provide all inclusive guest stays, workshops and retreats.  A delicious, healthy lunch will be served.  If you or your business is interested in participating please RSVP by contacting Sanibel Wellness at 239-395-1100 or  sanibelwellness2402@mac.com.
“Ultimately we want the program to provide additional business for all of its vendors during the summer and shoulder seasons”, states Brian Healy, director of Sanibel Wellness.  “More and more people are looking to incorporate health and wellness into their precious down time and where better to restore yourself than Sanibel and Captiva?  Many people already come here with relaxation and renewal in mind and we want to give it to them in big, high quality doses!”
Other businesses already on board with the program include the Sanibel Community House, Bailey’s, Holiday Inn Sanibel Resort, Island Nutrition Center, Ocean’s Reach Resort Condominiums, Select Transportation, Tarpon Bay Explorers, and Reservation Central.
One of the programs that is currently in development is ‘Relax and Renew’, a flexible, personalized 3-5 day stay that focuses on one of three themes: ‘The Sanibel Soother’ provides the ultimate in stress relief by packaging together such services as aromatherapy message, stretch classes, stress management instruction and deep relaxation; ‘The Mini Yoga Adventure’ offers the opportunity for participants to either learn beginners yoga or to hone their existing yoga practice; ‘Meditation on Paradise is an opportunity to learn how develop a meditation practice that meets individual goals of stress management, health improvements like lowering blood pressure, or improving specific aspects of life like relationships.  ‘The Relax and Renew’ program is intended to be flexible enough to be offered on location and as such can be a wonderful addition to the sales programs at many of  the  island accommodations.
Additional programs being developed are an annual ‘Sanibel Yoga Adventure’ with Brian to be held this November 8th-15th, ‘Relationship Week’ scheduled for the second week in February 2009, a women’s spirituality program entitled ‘The Goddess Retreat’ in early May2009, and ‘At Peace in Paradise a five day Meditation retreat in late May 2009.
