Home > Destinations > Thailand

Thailand is the most alluring nation for wellness travellers. This country has it all: beachfront resorts, detox programmes, Buddhist monk meditation centres, and a tonne of possibilities to remain active on land and water. What more could you possibly ask for?

Receiving a Thai massage, commonly referred to as Nuad Thai, is the epitome of Thai wellness. A Thai massage is very different from the kind you might receive at a massage parlour in a western city. It’s a combination of a regular massage, yoga, and chiropractic adjustment all in one. For beginners, the actual stretching and cracking may take some getting used to, but after it’s through, you’ll feel as fit as a fiddle.

When you travel to Thailand, you will have the opportunity to go on a sea kayaking experience that gets you moving while taking in the sea air. Thailand has a huge amount of coastline and glistening islands to explore. There are numerous locations where you may rent a kayak and set out onto open water to explore karst islands, caves, and secret beaches. Sea kayaking is arguably best done in Phang Nga Bay in Phuket. There are all sorts of islands, caverns, and beaches that you explore in this magnificent harbour.

There are also many great areas to go hiking in Thailand, the greatest locations being in the north close to Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai. The hill tribes there, which include the Karen, Hmong, Akha, Lisua, Lawa, Lahu, and Mien tribes, may be found close to the borders with Laos and Myanmar if you travel through mountain forests. Exploring these stunning terrains has the added benefit of providing opportunities for cultural exchanges. Other wellness activities that you can do in Thailand include biking, road trips, meditation, Muay Thai, rock climbing, and Tai Chi.
