QUITE A FEW PEOPLE in McGregor practice holistic healing of one form or another, attending variously to the mind, body and soul. There are also several active church congregations for those who prefer formal worship.
It's not really clear why so much holistic healing is available in the village, but the most likely theory stems from McGregor's important position as a sacred site.
You can enjoy group workshops and meditations at the Temenos Retreat Centre, or you can contact the practitioners listed below for individual therapies.
More conventional nurturing can also be found in McGregor, and here a special word must be made for the work done with children at the P.O.N.D.O Village Children's Trust.

Massage Therapy
Picture the sculptor Michaelangelo, five hundred years ago, at a gigantic and flawed block of marble: “I see David emerging from this mass!” he declared. It is more than often that we witness life anew and beautiful flowing from the frozen and flawed mass of our existence – the art lies in the unlocking of these stresses, which is the sole aim of my massage – to bring about a masterpiece of release, a symphony of touch, and a divine flow of energy.
