A recent trend in sexual wellness retreats has emerged, offering programs centered on intimacy and desire, as well as treatments to improve sexual well-being. These retreats focus on enhancing communication, healing past wounds, and building confidence to cultivate deeper sexual connections. Esteemed psychotherapist Esther Perel is leading a retreat on Erotic Intelligence in Costa Rica, while other locations such as the Esalen Institute in California, Kripalu Center in Massachusetts, and Back to the Body in Joshua Tree, offer workshops on topics like personal empowerment, partner massage, and erotic communication. The Esalen Institute particularly emphasizes un-domesticating the erotic body and reclaiming erotic sovereignty, while Back to the Body focuses on women’s empowerment through sexological bodywork. Additionally, SHA Wellness in Spain and Mexico recently opened sexual health units, providing treatments for erectile dysfunction and physiotherapy sessions to strengthen pelvic floor muscles to enhance sexual well-being. These retreats offer a blend of Western medicine and ancient healing practices to address all aspects of sexual wellness. Prices for these retreats vary, with some starting at $2,880 for a seven-night retreat in Costa Rica and others at $10,500 for an eight-day retreat in Joshua Tree. Whether seeking to improve sexual relationships, reconnect with partners, or explore personal desires, these retreats offer participants a safe and transformative experience to enhance their sexual well-being.
