Coronavirus lockdown has taken its toll on our mind, body, and soul, so we’re very pleased to see a slow awakening of luxury wellness retreats in Asia, for local business at least. Here, we’re listing Thai Wellness Retreat re-opening dates and outlining some of the health retreats which will be available to restore health, wellness, and balance post isolation.

To date, Thai borders are currently closed for international travel due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Thailand

Chiva Som, Hua Hin is open

Chiva Som has re-opened its door now to welcome back guests with an exclusive one-time offer ‘Thai Wellness Tourism’ promotion. Although it may take a little longer to welcome international guests, if you’re a Thai resident you can take full advantage of this leading health resort’s fantastic health and wellness programs at a snip of the usual price. These mini-retreats include a ‘Two-Night Wellness Getaway’ and both full and half day ‘Wellness Experiences’. Starts at only THB12,000 (USD$385) per night for a newly renovated, stunning Ocean Room.

If you’re planning your post isolation recovery, Chiva Som Wellness Retreats to consider are:

Mind and Soul

Chiva Som Emotional Wellbeing Retreats – Anxiety has certainly been heightened during these uncertain times.

Kamalaya Retreats to consider are:

Mind and Soul

Kamalaya Emotional Balance Retreats – These healing holidays are one of our most requested to address emotional wellbeing.
