Destination: Healing

Sometimes taking the initial steps down a healing pathway requires a kick start. An initial acceleration in the right direction supplies enough momentum for success. This kick can be provided by local professional trainers, therapists, and doctors. This kick can also be found at certain healing destinations. Imagine immersing yourself in a healing environment with instruction, equipment, and personnel all providing the right amount of momentum and strategy needed to create the healthy life that you want. Transporting yourself to destination “healing” might be just what you need to start feeling better.

Sound too inconvenient? Improved health might be closer than you think. One such Mecca for healing is just two hours away in beautiful Marin County. Cavallo Point was once an Army Base called Fort Baker. Recently, this facility was transformed into a luxurious healing destination complete with cooking classes, healthy meals, massage sessions, meditation pool and professional consultations. The consultants on staff include a nutritionist, a psychotherapist, a personal fitness trainer, and “Dr. Brad”, a professor of Family Medicine and Alternative Medicine at UCSF. Cavallo Point offers everything from one hour consultations to 3 week programs for everything from addiction to back pain. With all these healing opportunities ready to transform you, the first awkward steps down a healing pathway will be in the right direction.

Even if you are already feeling pretty healthy and just need to unwind and decompress. Cavallo Point offers a wonderful array of soothing luxury. The grounds of Fort Baker are now considered an historical National Park and provide visitors incredible views of the city and the Golden Gate Bridge. Meals in the restaurant are absolutely to die for after a day spent hiking the numerous trails nearby or a day spent in the incredible spa facilities. Even with Sausalito nearby, you will not want to leave. When you do have to leave, you will feel refreshed, renewed and a little bit healthier.

Good health is contagious and addictive especially at a healing destination like Cavallo Point, a great place to get a kick in the right direction. Although transformation does not come easily, the transformation of an Army fort to something so soothing and peaceful is a testament that anything is possible.
