Thailand Sales Planner - From Travel Agent September 15, 2008 - (Page 19) Come to Thailand to relax and de-stress, learn to meditate, and get expert health care Some visitors come to Thailand intent on improving their health, whether it’s through blissful spa treatments featuring traditional Thai therapies, meditation classes that raise skills to a whole new level, or to access state-of-the-art medical services that are a fraction of the cost back home. Spa services in Thailand can be broken down into six categories: day spa, hotel/ resort spa, destination spa, medical spa, mineral spring spa, and spa cuisine. You’ll have access to a broad range of treatments and therapies, including hydrotherapy and supplementary massages, physical stretching and therapy such as body massage, facial massage, traditional Thai massage, yoga, medical nutritional control and beauty care. 05 HEALTH AND WELLNESS A Spa Sampler The following is just a small sampling of Thailand spas offering an experience of wellness and well being. Sivara Spas are available at Amari Hotels and Resorts in Bangkok, Koh Chang, Samui, Phuket, Trang, and Krabi. Sivara Spas combines herbal remedies with century-old traditions. A new 7,000square-foot Sivara Spa recently opened in the Ocean Tower at Amari Orchid Resort & Tower in Pattaya. The facility has single and double treatment rooms, double Thai massage room and a suite with Jacuzzi and steam room. Visit www.amari.com or www.sivaraspa.com. JW Marriott Bangkok’s Health Club and Spa offers a full range of treatments specifically designed for men. The “Four Hands Ginger Back & Feet Relaxation” utilizes two therapists working in synchronization to alleviate tension in the back, scalp and feet. Visit www.marriott. com/jw-mariott/travel.mi. Also in Bangkok, S Medical Spa’s all-day “Total Body Wellness Program” provides consultation with a licensed Biofeedback therapist who generates a complete analysis on a Bio Energy Machine so visitors will leave with a complete plan on how to change their lifestyle for better health and fitness. Visit www.smedspa.com. The Briza Beach Resort and Spa Samui on idyllic Samui Island (about 308 miles south of Bangkok) accesses the historic serenity of Srivijaya culture exemplified by its gentle Buddhist faith to provide exceptional spa treatments and other services. Visit www.thebriza.com. It takes a little effort to arrive at Pimalai Resort & Spa, a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the world, but therein lays the charm. Pimalai has a great location on the tiny island of Koh Lanta Yai in Southern Thailand’s Krabi Province. The spa has seven treatment huts. Treatments include traditional Thai massage, aromatherapy massages and body wraps or body scrub treatments. Visit www.pimalai.com. thailand’s medical tourism In the face of medical care costs continuing to rise in the U.S. and health insurance coverage too often proving inadequate, more and more visitors are flying to Thailand for their medical treatment. Thailand’s hospital and medical centers have modern equipment and technology, skilled doctors and prompt and hospitable services. Available services include general health check-up, medical treatment, dental care, Lasik eye surgery, beauty surgery and physical therapy. Americans who travel abroad for surgery often end up receiving superior care for one simple reason. They set in motion a process that typically leads them to a specialty hospital abroad – a facility more comparable to the Cleveland Clinic or Mayo Clinic than to a typical city hospital in the U.S. The result is superior care, yet at a savings of 30 to 90 percent. You’ll also have the pleasure of recuperating in one of Thailand’s beautiful settings. In fact, many patients bring their families along and make a holiday of the procedure.
