Theparies
Some people come to Thailand seeking natural cures for their
ailments; others just want a spiritual or physical tune-up.
Samui is host to a wealth of alternative health practitioners
trained in diverse healing therapies including; acupuncture,
hypnotherapy, reflexology, reiki, myotherapy and yoga.
Most of these practitioners are available for 'house calls'
in the comfort of your own villa.
Several of our guests have enjoyed the quiet and serenity
of our retreat whilst engaging in programmes at any of the
centers that offer fasting and cleansing.
Availability: Please note, that not all of these alternate
therapies are always available throughout the year - many
practitioners come for a season only, or travel in the region
- please let us know when you book in to our villas and we
can let you have more information on availability.
Acpuncture
Acupuncture uses hair thin needles to direct body energy and
stimulate the release of blocked 'Chi' energy, allowing the
body to heal itself. Acupuncture is used to treat many problems,
from immune disorder to asthma -- or simply for relieving
stress.
Reflexology
Reflexology is a natural holistic therapy, based on the concept
that every part of the body is connected by energy pathways
to reflex points in the hands, feet and head. By applying
controlled pressure to specific points, vital energy pathways
are unblocked, and the body's own healing energy can restore
physical and mental well-being and boost the body's immune
system.

Reiki
Reiki is a ancient hands-on healing form that addresses the
body, mind and spirit, treating the root cause of dis-ease
or stress, and resulting in deep relaxation and a state of
rejuvenation. You can choose between whole-body treatment
of this 'universal life energy' technique, or can learn how
apply these techniques through an initiation session.
Myotherapy
Myotherapy is a non-aggressive manipulation of muscles that
have been traumatized, restoring balance and function to misaligned
body structures.
Yoga
Yoga is an ancient healing practice which teaches you to get
in touch with your body and your breath. Iyengar yoga is a
form that advocates precise alignment, with the use of props
if necessary. Combining stretches and 'asanas', yoga is an
ideal way to learn to balance flexibility and strength; and
with practice, to quiet your mind.
