A Full Day Beside the Sea · County Louth
Shoreside Retreats
A carefully curated day of restoration — physio-led breathwork, Reiki, sauna, and nourishing food, held in the natural coastal setting of Carlingford and Templeton. Small groups. Deep rest. Real restoration.
The Retreat
What's Included in a Shoreside Retreat
Each retreat is designed as a complete, unhurried experience. Every element is chosen to complement the others — clinical, energetic, thermal, and nourishing.
Physio-Led Breathwork
Guided breath practices rooted in Christine's physiotherapy expertise. Drawing on respiratory mechanics and nervous system science, these sessions are precise and deeply calming — not generic breathing exercises, but clinically informed breathwork designed to reduce stress, clear the mind, and prepare the body for rest.
Reiki
A Reiki session within the flow of the retreat day — supporting energetic balance and deep relaxation. Gentle, non-invasive, and well-suited to anyone at any stage. Christine integrates her Reiki practice with the wider rhythm of the retreat to create a seamless experience of release and renewal.
Sauna
Therapeutic heat exposure as a complement to the breathwork and Reiki — aiding muscle recovery, improving circulation, and deepening the body's restorative response. The contrast between heat and the natural coastal air adds another layer to the sensory experience of the day.
Nourishing Food
A carefully prepared meal is included as part of the retreat. Wholesome, seasonal, and thoughtfully chosen to ground the day and replenish what the body needs. Food is a central part of the retreat experience — not an afterthought.
