our Reviewer CAROLINE SYLGE says:
‘The Arrigo Programme’s combination of psychotherapy, therapies, emotional support and deep rest is a rare find. Fiona is wise and perceptive, and I would love to spend hours with her. We chat mainly about mothering, and how to trust my creativity to create the flow in my life I need’

What to expect
Founded by biodynamic psychotherapist Fiona Arrigo, these exclusive, private retreats in the Somerset countryside are suitable for all ages, whether you’re suffering an addition or an eating disorder, or you’ve just lost your way and sense of self and want to invest in your personal development. A visionary in her field, with more than 40 years’ experience, Fiona will design and supervise all individual retreats - there’s a minimum stay of five nights and they run all year on dates to suit you.
Stay in your own comfortable cottage, away from the interruptions of everyday life. You’re advised to break free of devices and technology so you can fully immerse yourself in the programme. Fiona and her team will come to your cottage, so you don’t have to worry about travel, finding places and appointment times. An ‘Arrigo angel’ will look after you – discreetly. If you want something (breakfast, films, music, books or even the fire lighting), just ask.
Bespoke retreats start with an in-depth pre-retreat consultation to ascertain your issues, needs and desires, after which a highly developed plan is drawn up based on your individual needs. You’ll have a minimum of four laser-focused treatments per day, including TRE, tension and trauma-releasing exercises, known to relieve deep-rooted stress, and craniosacral therapy to release tension around the body's connective tissue.
Between sessions, you’re urged to relax, with local countryside walks, journaling, daily Epsom salt baths and early nights. Expect world-class treatment, emotional support, healing, deep rest and a renewed sense of purpose.
After your retreat, you’ll receive a follow-up plan and you’ll be offered a complimentary treatment session post-retreat, along with access to an exclusive selection of therapists.
The Space
Your own private cottage will be characterful, charming and quintessentially English, set deep in Somerset countryside, where you can reconnect to nature, community and self.
Expect fresh flowers, candles and wood fires in your healing sanctuary. Emerge from your bedroom each morning to find the wood burner lit, tea lights burning and breakfast awaiting you.
In your downtime, the great outdoors is there for you - breathe in the fresh air and walk in nature.

Meeting the Arrigo Team and working with Fiona's curation was the best thing I have ever done.
These are extraordinary therapists - the way the whole programme runs is second to none. Not only did I process deeply, let go, and heal, but I was also held in the most expert and kind environment.
