Vegan Healing Centers in Australia:


Highwood Health is amidst majestic mountains, lofty trees and nestling on the Great Dividing Range in Australia. It is 102 acres of beautiful gardens, lawns, forests, mountain-streams and trails of unsurpassed sanctuary for resting, relaxation and restoration.

Nature is the effectual restorer and possesses curative powers. All intelligent men and women can be their own physicians when they understand the true philosophy of health. Their health professionals will equip you with vital information on the science of health and healing, which when applied, will add years of wellness to your life.

Qualified experienced doctors and therapists, together with well-trained staff, ensure that guests are provided with the best of attention, care and treatment that their body needs. They offer three live-in programs, a 5-day Introduction program, a 12-day Better Life program, and a 19-day New Life Program.

Their aim is to help restore people to health using natural remedies, encouraging lifestyle changes, and introducing clients to a vegan diet. Part of the program includes exercise routines, steam baths, massage, hydrotherapy, juicing fasts, educational classes, and of course vegan meals, and vegan cooking classes. They also serve meals made with fresh produce from their organic gardens.
