Euphoria Retreat is located in the heart of the Peloponnese, just a 2.5 hours’ drive from Athens or less than an hour from Kalamata. It sits in the foothills of Mount Taygetus, surrounded by a private pine forest, with stunning views of Sparta and the fertile valley of the Evrotas River, filled with citrus and cypress trees.
The retreat’s uniqueness comes from blending healing philosophies with the purity of the land, its history, and culture. Their healing philosophy is influenced by both Greek and Chinese traditions, which share historical roots and an understanding of the cosmos and human nature.
Drawing from the ancient Greek tradition of Ef zin (living well) and the practice of Hippocratic medicine, Euphoria Retreat embraces a balanced life and a healthy spiritual connection. They follow the concept of the five elements – water, wood, fire, earth, and metal – and their related energies and emotions.
In essence, Euphoria Retreat serves as an inspiring place for those seeking balance, health, and transformation. It allows individuals to reconnect with their spiritual selves in a way that aligns with their heart and cultural heritage.
Therapies based on inherited wisdom
At the heart of Euphoria’s philosophy is “Euphoria Methodos”, an approach built on the unique blending of ancient Hellenic and Chinese philosophies, practices and a belief that we each have the ability to become our own healer. The retreat combines these ancient principles, which guide how energy flows through the body and how to live a healthy and euphoric life, with evidence-based modern science. This approach ensures that valuable information, including biochemical knowledge of what the body needs for wellbeing, is used alongside medical practices to support healing and complement alternative therapies.
Latest scientific advances
Yet, Euphoria Retreat provides a highly advanced and groundbreaking nutritional approach that sets it apart from other wellbeing destination spas. The team of expert scientists at Eucrasia, along with their collaborators, have created the exclusive ‘3GL PLUS therapy,’ a patented method unique to Euphoria.
This test evaluates three essential bio-markers for metabolic health: glucose, glutathione (the body’s main antioxidants), and glycogen and over 12 active metabolites and important amino acids. This method, called 3GL Plus, helps reset metabolism through a comprehensive Medical-Nutrition-Exercise program, restoring and maintaining metabolic balance. The information from this test is used to create personalized nutrition plans for each guest.
The ‘3GLs’ test helps guests better understand themselves and provides a tailored approach to meet their specific nutritional needs. Based on the test results, many guests are recommended to have five mini meals a day, balancing blood sugar levels and boosting nutritional intake. Euphoria Retreat promotes a self-loving attitude, and there are no strict deprivation diets; instead, they aim to help guests feel their best with an uplifting and joyful approach to health.
Wellbeing Spa Facilities
Four floors of specially appointed treatment rooms offer a wide range of spa therapies and holistic medicine treatments (around 3000m2): The innovative Sphere Pool, with its stone arches, the antique Tepidarium, Byzantine Hammam, Kneip Therapy, a fitness room, the Yoga & Meditation Hall, Finnish Sauna, Steam Room, Speleotherapy-Salt Room, cold-watered Plunge Pool, Experiential Showers, an Outdoor Pool with the magnificent view of Mystras village and the private forest, an outdoor patio with a California Hot Tub, Men’s & Women’s Infrared Sauna, Pilates & Private Exercise Studio and 15 treatments room with the perfect space and mood for customised therapies.
Nutrition
At Euphoria Retreat, each guest’s meals are personalized based on their individual needs, which is different from many other destination spas. The ‘3GLs’ Test is conducted to understand how your body metabolizes food, helping you identify if you need to increase vitamin intake, improve your mood, or change unhealthy relationships with food. Regardless of the results, Euphoria’s approach is not about deprivation but rather about achieving balance and enjoying food.
They offer a scientifically proven healthy Mediterranean diet, inspired by the ancient Greek word for ‘Earth’ (Γαία). The GAIA restaurant serves authentic and pure food, alive with the energy of the mineral-rich soil of the Peloponnese. The restaurant serves a blend of contemporary Greek and Mediterranean dishes, focusing on simplicity, healthy living, and full flavor, inspired by the region’s culinary traditions.
