Welcome to the Black Hills Health Retreat, a serene oasis nestled in a stunning fire-red canyon in western South Dakota, just 14 miles from the iconic Mount Rushmore. Here, you can immerse yourself in 260 acres of nature while learning about nutrition and lifestyle changes that promote wellness. Enjoy the clean air, abundant wildlife, and scenic walking trails that lead to breathtaking views. After a refreshing hike, unwind with a soothing massage, indulge in a plant-based gluten-free meal, or relax in one of our beautiful Airbnb units for a total rejuvenating experience.
The Black Hills Health Retreat is a faith-based wellness center dedicated to helping individuals improve their health through natural remedies, lifestyle education, and spiritual growth. Guests and students benefit from holistic wellness programs that focus on nutrition, exercise, and mental health, along with evidence-based natural treatments and personalized coaching for lasting results. The retreat also offers the Black Hills School of Massage, a state-recognized 700-hour training program that prepares students for professional licensure, and Biblical Response Therapy, which integrates biblical principles into health and life coaching. Since 1979, the retreat has combined practical health education with spiritual encouragement to support the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
