Survivors & Caregivers
We dreamed of offering integrative care OUTSIDE of healthcare settings.
We know that the last place patients and their loved ones want to go for services, no matter how beneficial, is a medical facility. At Cancer Retreat Centers, you can breathe, walk, talk, eat, learn, and be cared for in a place that is beautiful, peaceful, and where your people are.
This is your retreat.
In it together
Whether you’re a survivor finding relief in massage, a parent joining a walking group, a child playing with others who know what it’s like, or a nurse relaxing with a cooking group, at CRC you’ll find those who remind you that you are not alone.
All of our programs and services are free of cost, with available transportation and, beginning in 2025, complimentary, on-site childcare.
“We need to lean on one another and lift each other up.”

Help us discover what really works
With guidance from our unique Scientific Advisory Board, we continually curate a portfolio of integrative therapies, wellness programs, psychosocial support, recreation, and education. Our customized assessment tool helps us turn your feedback into useful data that can pinpoint the therapies that truly work to make lives better, and develop best practices in integrative care where none exist.
Overnight Destination Retreat:
Escape to Blue Spring Farm
Nestled in the mountains of southwest Virginia along the Little River, a recently renovated, 1850s cabin at Blue Spring Farm offers a peaceful oasis for CRC patients, families, and providers. Enjoy fishing, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, nature-watching, and the soothing sound of river rapids on this beautiful property.
Thanks to a generous donor family, members of our CRC community can enjoy a no-cost overnight getaway at Blue Spring Farm during certain months of the year. Please note that this is a private property, so use by CRC participants is by confirmed reservation only.
