Fountainhead reserve the right to change pricing, inclusions, and programs at any time without notice. Fountainhead Organic Retreat has only one primary goal. That being education of psychological stress and its causes. 

What we are not.

We are not a rehab center, medical centre or hospital and do not offer 24 hour care, except with Fountainhead Private - Palladium retreats where required. We are not medical doctors nor psychologists, but simply offer education on ideas and systems that we have learnt from the over 4500 clients that have attended our programs over the last nine years. The Fountainhead Method TM, (Our Life Coaching philosophy) is our best understanding so far of the causes and neutralisers of stress related illnesses. It has a wonderful success rate.

Duty of Care
 

Guests whom may have had suicidal thoughts over the last twelve months or require 24 hour care must bring their own chaperone or may not attend. If during your visit suicidal thoughts arise, you must immediately notify us so that we may get professional help in this area. Fountainhead only provides supervision from 7am to 8pm seven days. At no time are guests allowed off the property unless supervised by a Retreat host, during the duration of their retreat. If you are on medication for your illness DO NOT REDUCE OR CEASE TAKING IT until you have completed your program and only then with your medical Doctor's agreement and supervision.


Booking and early Termination, Late arrivals and Cancellation Policy for all Programs:  

We are normally full so have very clear policies in this area. To reserve your spot, payment in full including any transfers must be received within 21 days of arrival. For bookings made more than 21 days in advance a 50% non refundable deposit is required and then full payment at 21 days. For cancellations with less than 14 days notice 75% of the full fee is not refundable. For 7 days or less, no refund is possible. If you change your mind up to 7 days after arrival then any nights used plus 50% of the total fee is charged. If early termination occurs 7 days or more after arrival then no refund is possible. Those giving less than 10 days notice of arrival date change will be charged for the nights missed at the agreed rate until arrival or shorten their program by same.So please think carefully before booking or attend a weekend seminar in advance to be sure our type of program is for you. Changes may be able to be moved within a 120 day window as long as 7 days notice is given, as long as your spot can be subsequently replaced. 

For many of these programs to have most chance of providing real help, they must be completed. Often when confronting fears and other "stuff " that often comes up with many of these programs, there will be an urge to "run away". You must push through this. I appreciate that this is a strong stance but some of these health conditions require a strong stance to be given their best chance of being over come.  

Smoking, alcohol and non presciption drugs.
Only come if you are ready to Quit. Anyone found breaking this rule during their visit will be sent home. This is a condition of booking. No refund will apply. Regular rooms checks are conducted at random.

Fountainhead recommends the use of travel insurance.**

Guarantees: Relating to retreats targeting serious health issues, (depression, alcohol and anxiety etc).  We cannot perform miracles and the program does not work for everyone, no matter their good intent. For the program to be given its best chance to work, (and it works for so many) the following commitments must be made. You must stay for the duration of your commitment, (minimum 21 days). You must attend the full planned program including lectures and or Life Coaching and Journey Style Therapy. The success of the program is based on your ability to hear and assimilate this new information and for it to change your current grief causing beliefs. References are all over the web site and references by phone can be provided for the many that it has worked for. No "cures" can be gauranteed.   

However, we are so confident in our ability to help with depression and anxiety, that full tariff paying clients, completing the 28 day change your life program, whom cannot report a major improvement in their ability to handle stress within 90 days of departure, may return at reduced rates, (further treatment of the same issue will be no charge). This will include life coaching, weekend seminars and any other relevent services but NOT accommodation, catering, activities and other therapies etc).
