Tour options include waterfall hikes, zip lining, horseback riding, a very long slide through the jungle, and more. Each day will include time to experience the beautiful nature of Costa Rica.

Your Host:
My name is Catherine Chavarria, and I am your grateful host for this retreat. I am a Techniques Certified Craniosacral Therapist, study group leader and teaching assistant with the Upledger Institute. I have often lived in remote areas with few craniosacral therapists nearby, making it harder to receive treatments. I have organized this experience to connect through healing specifically using Upledger techniques. I have been traveling to Costa Rica for the past 18 years and have been living on the southern Nicoya Peninsula in Santa Teresa for the past 6 years. My intention is to make this an effortless trip where you can relax and focus on your healing process. I look forward to meeting and healing with all of you.
