Amatsu therapy is part of the unique experience.
A powerful new outdoor retreat has just opened in County Mayo.
Wild Wellness Mayo, which is situated in Kilkelly, brings together ancient therapy and modern wellness practices in a unique setting. The recently opened retreat offers a rare combination of Amatsu therapy, conscious breathwork, a wood-fired sauna while also having an ice barrel immersion.
All in the peace and quiet of the Mayo countryside, the retreat is designed as a two-hour experience to reset the nervous system and restore balance in the body and mind. Wild Wellness Mayo offers something different for those seeking real recovery in nature.

At the heart of the experience is Amatsu therapy which is a gentle hands-on treatment rooted in ancient Japanese principles. Amatsu works with the body’s structure and energy to support posture, improve alignment and ease pain without force. Combined with guided breathwork the deep heat of a handcrafted sauna and the invigorating plunge of cold water immersion it delivers a full reset for the whole system.
Created by Gearóid Lynch, a qualified Amatsu practitioner and yoga teacher, Wild Wellness Mayo was born out of a need for more natural grounded alternatives to traditional spa or wellness options.
“People want more than pampering. They want to feel well and connected again. That’s what this is about, creating space for real restoration and reconnecting in nature” explains Gearóid.
