Pu'uhonua O' Puako - a place of refuge, for Rejuvenation and Healing

Aloha!
It has been our experience both for our selves and our guests, that the Big Island is a source of healing and rejuvenation. Hawaii Island is now being called the Healing Island, as it continues to focus on the promotion of the healing arts. Health professionals and counselors have arrived and established practices and services being offered to North Hawaii Hospital, the South Kohala Resorts and numerous retreat centers around the island, hosting visitors in need of renewal.

Our Goal - The Healing Experience
To assist you in the replenishment of your body, mind and soul by offering a network of healing resources. We want to offer a network of activities, services and therapies to the visitor looking for recreation, renewal and rejuvenation of their health. We also offer accommodations to the health and wellness professionals who come to our Healing Island for training workshops and conferences.

We aim to provide a safe and serene environment that helps you relax and facilitates your rejuvenation and healing. Each beach home or condo has a copy of Ke Kukui - a Healing Island Resource Guide, which offers contact information for every health care service available here: massage and bodywork, spa treatments, support groups, hypnotherapy, meditation, yoga, acupuncture, fitness, chiropractic, native Hawaiian health practices, nutritional services, ecotourism (including all kinds of ocean therapies), energetic therapies, integrative medicine, and many more.

Please visit these websites for more information on what services are available and to prearrange health and healing therapies during your stay. Feel free to contact us with any questions you have, or to assist you with arrangements for your healing experience. A selection of books on healing are available in our lending library in Puako.
