(PRESS RELEASE) Bangkok, Thailand, 2024-Oct-7 — /Travel PR News/ — Swissôtel proudly announces the launch of Layan Life by Anantara, a transformative wellness retreat situated at the picturesque Anantara Layan Phuket Resort. This innovative retreat invites guests to experience a unique approach to wellness that embraces the various stages of life. Running programs from three to ten days, Layan Life integrates cutting-edge technology with ancient Thai healing traditions, a blend honed over more than two decades of expertise from Anantara Hotels & Resorts.
Nestled within a biophilic design spanning 1,767 square meters and surrounded by lush tropical gardens and the tranquil Andaman Sea, Layan Life encourages visitors to embark on a rejuvenating wellness journey, where nature’s healing power plays a vital role.
The retreat offers a comprehensive suite of bespoke programs crafted by medical experts and Thai traditional medicine practitioners. These programs combine time-honored wisdom with modern medical assessments, tailored nutrition, and guided fitness to create a holistic approach to wellness that addresses various health goals, including weight management, stress relief, and anti-aging.
Layan Life celebrates the journey of life by fostering health and happiness through its inclusive offerings. Guests can select from an array of wellness experiences, ranging from engaging family activities to solo retreats focused on relaxation and rejuvenation. Families are warmly welcomed at Anantara Layan, with dedicated Kids Zones, beach and water sports, and numerous outdoor adventures to keep children entertained while parents pursue their wellness objectives.
The Layan Life experience begins with an in-depth wellness consultation, which includes advanced diagnostic tests like epigenetic assessments and physiotherapy using 3D body scans. The results are evaluated by a team of healthcare professionals who then customize wellness programs based on the Life Method, which integrates four essential pillars: Longevity Medicine, Traditional Thai Medicine (TTM), Complementary Medicine, and Lifestyle Medicine.
Reflecting Anantara’s commitment to its Thai roots, Layan Life emphasizes the four elements of Thai Traditional Medicine—earth, water, wind, and fire. Treatments provided by skilled practitioners include herbal remedies and hands-on therapies designed to restore balance to physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, all complemented by state-of-the-art medical and holistic therapies.
The retreat’s architecture harmonizes with the natural surroundings, featuring neutral tones and abundant natural light across two levels. The lower floor includes a fully equipped gym, a yoga and Pilates studio, meditation rooms, and a hydrotherapy area with vitality pools, saunas, and steam rooms. The upper level is dedicated to medical and holistic facilities, consultation rooms, physiotherapy, TTM, aesthetic treatments, IV procedures, and more, including a Thai herbal dispensary for personalized herbal prescriptions.
Layan Life prioritizes the healing power of play, offering a plethora of activities to engage guests of all ages. The Active Zone features tennis courts, a Muay Thai ring, climbing walls, and archery, while the Outdoor Fitness area includes ziplining, mountain biking, and a beach boot camp. Guests can also partake in a variety of cultural experiences, such as cooking classes, temple tours, and excursions to nearby islands.
The Food for Life concept, curated by wellness chef Filippo Tawil, emphasizes fresh, whole foods inspired by various wellness philosophies. Each dish is free from gluten, dairy, and processed sugars, focusing on high-quality macronutrients while still celebrating traditional flavors with a healthy twist.
Complementing the wellness journey, the Anantara Spa offers a range of treatments, indigenous experiences, and hydro therapies, including signature massages and Himalayan singing bowl sound therapies.
Customizable packages such as Active for Life, Mindfulness for Life, and Beauty for Life include three meals daily, specialized treatments, group classes, expert wellness talks, and preferential room rates at the exquisite Anantara Layan Phuket Resort. Accommodation options range from luxurious pool villas to spacious suites with private relaxation areas, along with fifteen uniquely designed pool residences for an unparalleled retreat experience overlooking the ocean.
