Celebrating Six Years as the Only Certified Organic Health Retreat in The World
Since we opened our doors, just over six years ago, we have served over 2000 Guests who needed help with fitness, a Pamper, a Juice Detox or had a serious health issue to deal with. We operate within a working Organic farm in Maleny (right next to the Glasshouse Mountains) Queensland, one of the most beautiful spots in Australia.
We serve only 16-22 guests per program, so we even get to know your name. We grow much of our own Organic food on site. The farm is spread over 40 acres including 3 acres of lakes and creeks, natural habitat of Platypus. The retreat also encompasses our own Hot Mineral Water Baths complex, which utilises Spring water from underneath the mountain we sit upon.
Most guests come by themselves and you can come any day you need to and leave when you are ready. You can join us with fitness goals, to work on your Stress levels or to be educated about the mind body connection. You can come to beat your Depression or to Quit the cigs, use our Baths or do a Juice Detox. Most guests come for at least two to three weeks but our most popular Change Your Life program takes 28 days.
How are we different?
We believe that mental attitude and a strong workable philosophy are the most critical tools to ensure a happy and healthy life. We further believe that specific mind sets cause specific illness and stress. Many places talk about mind body, but we teach what that really means. Nutrition and exercise will help with health, that is certain, but without self worth happiness will remain elusive.
We are all put on earth, to learn lessons. The secret is to have a go. Do not let fear and "what if's" stop you. Start liking yourself now. We may only have one life, so lets start living it today.

Every month Anita (our Fitness Leader) host our, Fit For Life (Your own Program and trainer). Although there is an abundance of physical activity daily with individuals or group activity catered, you will also receive plenty of healthy food, rest and pampering to help the body recover. In addition to our physical training you will also receive physical education talks and information regarding nutrition - including our Healthy Food Schools.

Don't just take our word for it...
“I came to Fountainhead in search of knowledge and clarity, and also to give myself a rest with organic food, detoxing, exercise and therapies. I am now getting ready to leave after 22 days. I am feeling fantastic, the whole experience was exactly what I needed and was looking for. This has been an important few weeks in my life, A time to regroup and prepare for the second half of life. I have lost weight, gained health and sorted through issues, some very old and some more recent.
I am going home with information I want to shout to the world so they could get it like I got it. The philosophy they teach is in my opinion a GENIUS! Anyway, it has all resonated perfectly with me.
I have tried the other "biggies" BUT THIS ONE IS THE BEST.
The staff have created a wonderful soft place to land here and everyone as taken great care of me and I am eternally grateful for this experience. So thank you to everyone.”

Dear Dimitti,
I just thought I would touch base with you regarding Jen’s month at Fountainhead. She came home a different person to the one I sent up there and for that I will be forever grateful. She is completely off her medication, has the eating thing under control and is now completely vegetarian – her weight is good and her demeanor is fantastic.
She has been working two jobs since she got back, saving money and is happier than I have seen her in many, many years. When I sent Jen up to you, it was a real leap of faith on my part as the financial side of it for us was a big commitement but I have to say it is the best money I have ever invested. I just want to thank you again and would appreciate it if you would pass on my eternal gratitude to Jen’s life coach etc – they worked a miracle and for that I will be forever in their debt.
Have a fantastic 2009.
Sincerely Kate
But after attending the talks and learning from everyone else I feel like I have regained my old original self and a renewed take on life.
