With a holistic approach encompassing the physical, mental and social aspects of health, Citius Retreats offers a unique opportunity for personal growth and active recovery.
A programme guided by specialists
Citius was founded by the Dr. George Bownes FFSEM, a sports medicine consultant, who has spent over 15 years working with elite athletes in the UK's high performance sports network, including Premier League football, international rugby, Wimbledon and the Olympic Games.
Bownes has now turned to its network of specialists to organise a team to lead retreats that help guests move forward on their health and fitness journeys.
The retreat is structured to provide personalised attention from the outset. The programme begins with a individual medical assessmentThe team is responsible for the physiotherapy of each guest, in which each guest has a private consultation with the team's lead physician. This is followed by a physiotherapy assessment to determine joint range of motion, physical strength and the specific goals each participant wishes to achieve during their stay.
Following these assessments, guests are grouped into small teams with people who share similar needs. For example, those with upper limb problems - hands, wrists, elbows or shoulders - form one group, while those who need work on lower limbs, such as hips, knees, feet and ankles, join another. Finally, those who need attention for the spine, including the neck and back, will join the corresponding group.
Each group will receive sessions specifically designed to work on their health, fitness and recovery goals, with a holistic approach that includes physical, mental and social aspects.
