Wellness Retreats

Chronobiologic Re-Set Week

A chronobiological retreat — a week designed as a return to yourself.

Five days in a small group, in an exceptional venue in the region. Every activity, every meal and every moment of rest is timed to the body’s natural rhythms: this is what sets a premium retreat apart from a mere succession of activities. Maison Andromède brings its signature skin-quality and wellbeing expertise; a refined setting provides the accommodation, private-chef dining and the art of hospitality.

Why this retreat that ‘breathes with you’

Chronobiology studies the body’s internal rhythms: energy at its peak in the morning, winding down for sleep in the evening, windows for digestion and focus. Honouring these cycles multiplies the benefits of a retreat. Six principles shape the week:

• Digestion respected — activity is always scheduled well away from meals.
• Energy / sleep cycle aligned — physical intensity in the morning, calm evenings to protect sleep.
• Effort & recovery alternated — never two intense sessions on the same day.
• Free time protected — silence, walking, reading, the pool: kept sacred.
• Skin window maximised — individual treatments in the mid-afternoon, when the skin is most receptive.
• Morning & evening rituals — a gentle bodily awakening at dawn, cocooning at night.

The rhythm of the week

• Day 1 — Welcome & unwinding. A gentle arrival, grounding yoga, welcome dinner.
• Day 2 — Skin reset & tone. Cosmetology masterclass & skin diagnosis, dynamic pilates, individual treatments.
• Day 3 — Rebalancing & nature. Walking, group energy session, a cultural and art-de-vivre interlude.
• Day 4 — Connection & massage. Flowing pilates, massage and self-massage workshop, individual treatments.
• Day 5 — Integration & looking ahead. Final ‘3-Month Reset Plan’ workshop, brunch and closing circle.
