recovery retreat

Therapeutic escape destination

A recovery retreat is a residential program where people withdraw from daily life to focus on healing—typically from addiction, trauma, or burnout.

The term emphasizes wellness and self-care rather than clinical treatment, distinguishing it from rehab or detox centers.
