5 Day Wellness Detoxification & Rejuvenation Retreat – Krabi, Thailand

More Info About Our Program

Updated April 19th, 2018.

What is Detox?

Detox (detoxification) is simply a period of time when you stop taking unhealthy or harmful foods, drinks or drugs into your body in order to improve your health.  Detox is the body’s way of ridding itself of toxins built up within it, due to many factors.  Being exposed to stress, lack of rest/sleep, eating cooked and processed foods (the digestive system is a key holding place for many toxins), lack of exercise, breathing toxins in the air, as well as toxins placed on the body through soap, shampoo, perfumes, deodorant and much more.  In order for the body to function properly, all of who you are needs an opportunity to rest and rejuvenate.  When placed under the right conditions, cooperating with the body and providing it what it needs for restoration, the whole of you will begin to detox from the inside out; both mind, body and spirit.

Will there be side effects to participating in a Juiced for Life program?

The answer to this is YES!  There are a few things that you will experience right away; Energy!  You will begin to feel energetic and excited about your participation in the Juiced for Life program; no matter how long the duration of your stay.  You may notice mild side effects:  headache, nausea, fatigue, restlessness, desire to sleep, frequency in urinating. This is normal and should pass quickly; if you experience anything at all. We have local physicians that are nearby if need be.

Will I lose weight?

The answer to this is YES!  The Juiced for Life programs posture you for weight loss.  All of the conditions you will be exposed to are favourable for weight loss.  Exercise, swimming, massage, rest, tropical warm weather, humidity, fresh raw foods, fruit and vegetable juices and tons of water; these factors all equate to weight loss.  The “super bonus”; they equate to HEALTH!

When I think of “Raw Food”, what should I keep in mind? Uncooked?

Raw food is simply unheated food or food cooked at less than 40 °C (104 °F) to 46 °C (115 °F). As foods heated or cooked beyond those temperatures begin to lose the integrity of the nutrients they provide and over time can even become harmful to the body. 99% of what you will experience at Juiced for Life will be foods that have not been processed in any way; heat or otherwise. You want to keep in mind that these “raw-living” foods will come from fresh organic vegetables, fruit, soaked nuts, seeds and sprouted grains and legumes. “Oh so yummy”!

What days can I come?          

You are welcome to come any time to begin your Juiced for Life experience.  However, Sundays are our day of rest and relaxation.  A day for reflecting and a time to enjoy amazing Thailand. For best results in our programs, it’s preferable to choose days that will keep your program running back to back with no break in between.  Our check-in times are 15:00 (3 pm) daily and Check out is at 12:00 noon.  Please be sure to book your flights accordingly. Airport transfer is provided for your departure and will pick you up 2 hours before your flight, leaving from Krabi International Airport.  If arriving or departing from any other airport (Phuket, etc.) special arrangements can be made at a surcharge.  Please contact us.

How many people will be a part of my program?

We limit our group size from 8-10 people per program.  This is dependent on the time of the year and participants holiday or travel schedule. We try to provide a more intimate atmosphere that encourages enthusiasm and motivation; not unhealthy competition. Our guests range anywhere from 25-60+ years of age and most come as individuals. We do get couples who come to be a support to one another or whom have decided to make a lifestyle change at the same time.  Our participants come from around the world yet all have the same common goal and desire.  This creates an atmosphere and environment for instant friendships.  We LOVE IT!

Do you have a Doctor on site?

No. We are not a medical program. If you have a major medical condition that is not under control or need to be under the continued supervision of a doctor, we suggest you go to a medical retreat. We do have medical clinics within walking distance as well as an International Hospital only a short drive away. We provide a health screening if you would like to keep track of your progress; offered at a surcharge.

Food Allergies?

If you have food allergies please inform us immediately and we will surely try to accommodate you.  Our kitchen staff is very creative and can always find a substitute when needed for most any ingredient. Our nutrient intake is 99% living whole foods.  We rarely use peanuts, as they not only affect many with allergies but they are also difficult to digest.

What should my fitness level be to participate?

You absolutely do not need to be at any particular fitness level to experience our program. As a matter of fact, many that come to us are at a low level of fitness. They have found our program to be perfect for them because they can come as they are and leave equipped with the tools and knowledge desired to not only increase their fitness level but to proceed forward towards a lifestyle of fitness and healthy living.  If you want to start some physical activity to begin increasing your fitness level, then, by all means, do so but it’s not required.  Our goal is to help you obtain yours.

We have local laundry services nearby at very affordable rates (approx. 30-50THB per kilo washed, dried, folded).  Depending on your length of stay you will be happy that they are available to you.  You can drop your laundry off after your morning activities and pick up within 24 hours.

How close is the beach?

The Ao Nang Beach is approximately 3km from our retreat site.  The water is safe to swim in as there are very few waves and no riptide. Sometimes you can walk out towards the deeper part of the sea for a few minutes in only waist deep water.  Relaxing, cool and refreshing.

Local Transportation? 

Local transportation is very easy to access.  You can take the traditional ‘tuk-tuk’ or “songtaew” to get you around.  You can also rent motorbikes at an affordable rate.  We can assist you in deciding what will work best for you once you arrive.

Money Exchange? 

There are many money exchange locations throughout the village as well as many ATM’s to withdraw from.  No need to bring a lot of liquid money.  Simply inform your bank that you will be travelling to Thailand, as it is safer to carry your ATM/debit card instead of liquid cash.

Air Conditioning?

Yes, each room has air conditioning.

You can bring your computer as the outlets (most of the time) take any universal cord.  However, be careful about bringing electronics such as blow dryers, electric shavers, etc.  The voltage in Thailand is 220V.  You may want to bring an adapter.  We also have adapters here for use or purchase depending on your situation.

Languages spoken?

Thai is the primary language spoken in Ao Nang.  Because Krabi is a place for tourism, most people can speak English enough to assist you. Our staff is all native English speakers so you will be in good hands at all times.
