Hilton Head Health

My boyfriend and I stopped by the Indigo Spa on a recent trip to Hilton Head Island. We could not recommend this spot more! We both had the Rejuvenate massage. The masseuses were incredibly knowledgable and did a fantastic job. Their relaxation room is also amazing – fresh fruit, great views, and plenty to read.
Side note: I have the Indigo perfume oil they sell. It’s amazing – perfect for splashing on before an event or date night.

I recently spent a month at Hilton Head Health, in the «Lose Well» program. It was one of the greatest, most positive and life changing months of my life.
After researching quite a few wellness centers around the world, I chose Hilton Head Health. During my multiple phone conversations with my program consultant, I was convinced that this was the place to achieve my health goals. She answered tons of questions and made the whole process easy and informative.
Every member of the Hilton Head Health staff went way above and beyond my expectations. The fitness coaches took the time to give personalized attention to each guest. I went from years of zero exercise to running, biking, swimming, weight training, Yoga and many other activities through the motivation and encouragement of the fitness coaches at Hilton Head Health. I also had fun doing it.
The dining staff far exceeded my expectations. They always have a smile and know each guests individual dietary requirements. Each member of the dining staff took the time to get to know each guest and it made for a wonderful dining experience, three times a day. I love to eat and the food at Hilton Head Health was great. I didn’t realize healthy food could taste as good as the food there. The menu items were diverse, fresh and wonderfully prepared.
I can’t say enough about the team at Hilton Head Health. The dietitian, behavioral health director, education director, program guides, general manager, fitness coaches, culinary and dining team were each a part of my personal achievements at Hilton Head Health. They were all amazing!
The accommodations were terrific and spacious. I had a two bedroom condo on the golf course, with a nice balcony. It was clean, nicely decorated with multiple televisions, large living room, dining room and good size kitchen. It had all the amenities I needed and it was close to the Hilton Head Health property.
Another great part of Hilton Head Health was spending time with lots of interesting people from all over the world, working to achieve similar goals as myself. The other guests were all different ages and from many different backgrounds. I made some good friends during my stay and feel very lucky to have had such fun, positive and motivating people to spend each day with during my stay.
This was my first stay at a wellness center but a good amount of the other guests have stayed in similar places around the world. Every single guest I spoke to who had been to other wellness centers from Asia to Europe to Australia and many other places, told me that Hilton Head Health was the absolute best place they had been.
If you’re looking to lose weight, get healthy or just find a wonderful place to get motivated, you’ve found the right place. Hilton Head Health is with me every day, during each meal choice I make, every exercise I do and through all the decisions that contribute to my better health. I will never forget my experience at Hilton Head Health and I look forward to returning in the future.

I love Hilton Head Health (H3). I look forward to returning every year until the end of time. It is a relaxing environment where one can go to get away from the hustle bustle of life and focus on getting healthy. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They offer a wide variety of classes, lectures and gourmet low-​calorie food. The entire experience is worth every penny!

I can’t believe this place hasn’t gotten more reviews! You know that stuff they do on Biggest Loser? They do that here without the yelling. Great environment, great location (beach!). and newly remodeled.
Well worth the trip to the east coast.

This place is the real deal.
This place is not a ‘spa’ where you will relax in a chaise lounge sunning yourself above a roaring cliff while you await your next seaweed wrap alternating Evian with banana daiquiris.
This is a serious Quasi-​medical facility where you come to focus inward on yourself and achieve health through serious exercise, an enjoyable but calorie restricted diet, and education.
The setting is on Hilton Head Island. The area is wooded and pretty. The main facility is two large buildings housing reception, three classrooms, a dining area with demonstration kitchen, cardio workout room, weight workout room, three aerobic/​mixed workout rooms, Internet room and offices. Pool and whirlpool are adjacent to the aerobics room with men’s and women’s changing areas with lockers, showers and saunas.
Accommodations are in homes or vacation condominiums on the island. These might be a way away from the facility — my accommodations were easily a mile from the center. Bikes are available for rental & are helpful if you don’t wish to drive. The accommodations are frequently shared. I found the condo satisfactory — much like a vacation home rental. You may wish to inquire further if your needs or expectations run high. Most condos are 2 – 3 bedroom so you may have a roommate. If you need solitude, make sure you arrange this before hand. I had a roommate for part of my stay and it was fine!
Dining is a centerpiece of the plan — your meals are tightly controlled. Food was tasty but not abundant — but it did control hunger until the next meal. The meal is a social experience and there are a number of interesting folks who are generally achievers in life, just not successful in their weight. A few others are burnt-​out from their careers and taking some time to focus inward. The clientele ranged from mid 20’s to 70’s. There are small snack meals between eating which keep you from getting too hungry.
Exercise classes are well run and inclusive. You are never made to feel negative about your ability to do physical exercise and teachers are motivating. Instructors run the gamut from young 20-​somethings to very fit folks that I’m guessing were mid 50’s. I liked the ultra circuit, which was a combination of cardio machines and weight exercises, and the dance aerobic classes which were fun. Without being exhaustive, there are Pilate’s, yoga, cardio boxing, and aqua aerobics. I liked the aqua aerobics to warm up my day. There are many of aqua classes for those who may be mobility impaired.
Lectures were well worth my time. I don’t want to take away from the meat of the presentation — I think it is more effective for you to receive the information from someone who is trained to deliver it effectively. But when you realize how we have been manipulated into eating more I expect you’ll be pretty angry and astounded. Its not you — its the system. Here’s the information and education you need to fight back!
Ideally, you would come to this place for two to three weeks. I only had six days. It probably was the best spent six days of the last seven years. If you are looking for what this place is offering, I give it my highest recommendation.
