Body Cleanse Detox Program – PachaMama, Costa Rica

The Body Cleanse Detox Program is a guided six-day body cleanse at PachaMama Eco Village & Retreat Center in Nicoya, Guanacaste, Costa Rica. It combines organic juices, movement, rest and supportive therapies in the tropical forest, and suits anyone who wants a structured, supported week to reset the body away from everyday routines.

The program runs several times through the year, and each session lasts six days. It is one of the wellness retreats offered at PachaMama, a center known for meditation retreats, body cleanse programs, emotional healing workshops, yoga workshops, Red Road ceremonies and musical journeys.

What to Expect

This is a juice cleanse held within a retreat setting, so the days are built around more than the juices themselves. The organizer describes four elements working together:

- Organic juices, which form the core of the cleanse.
- Movement, to keep the body gently active through the week.
- Rest, with space to slow down and let the body settle.
- Supportive therapies, offered alongside the cleanse to help the process along.

The setting does much of the work. Instead of a clinic or a city apartment, you spend the six days in a tropical forest, with the sounds and pace of the jungle around you. The program is guided throughout, so you are not left to manage a detox alone.

The Setting

PachaMama Eco Village & Retreat Center sits in the forest near Nicoya, in the province of Guanacaste, on Costa Rica's Pacific side. It is a working retreat center with a full calendar of yoga, breathwork, Reiki, cacao, sound and ceremony programs. Many guests pair a cleanse with another gathering held there.

PachaMama closes its doors for September and October, during Costa Rica's rainy season. Programs resume in November and continue through the rest of the year and into the following months, with cleanse sessions scheduled roughly monthly.

Before You Go

The program is open to anyone drawn to a guided cleanse, and the material lists no prerequisites or prior experience. If you have a medical condition, take medication or are pregnant, speak with a health professional before committing to a juice-based program.
