Most of us lead stressful, hectic lives that create tension and anxiety in our minds and bodies. And this can have a detrimental effect on your health, especially if you develop unhealthy eating habits to cope with the daily stress of life.

Living in a city exacerbates that stress which builds and snowballs over time. It’s natural to want to seek rest and rejuvenation to recharge with a spa treatment and the best place to do that is at a restorative beachfront spa resort.

The first step to restoring your health is with total relaxation and rejuvenation of the mind and body and to be transported far from daily stress and anxiety.

Chiva-Som is located in one of the most scenic locations in Thailand. Situated near the beachfront on the Gulf of Thailand, you will be greeted by the relaxing and intoxicating smell of the salty sea breeze that will transport your mind to a state of relaxation and allow us to guide you back to full health.

Treatments

Working with numerous health and wellness experts, we have developed a number of treatments to bring your mind and body back into equilibrium to guide you back to a positive state. We also have a clinic that’s specially dedicated to aesthetic treatments called Niranlada Medi Spa. 
Below are some of the treatments we offer:

• Signature Herbal Massage - A massage that blends deep pressure techniques with heated fresh Thai herbal packs combined with your choice of Chiva-Som’s massage oils. This rejuvenating treatment uses herbal packs to warm up your tired muscles before our therapist massages your whole body using their forearms, elbows, and thumbs to release tension. This deeply relaxing massage targets the muscles in your legs, back, neck and shoulders. 

• Shirobhyanga - A rejuvenation therapy that focuses on the imbalance within our bodies. This is ayurvedically diagnosed and then treated with individually selected medicated oils during a head massage. Attention is given to the marma points (acupressure points) that will release blockages deep within to stimulate lymph drainage. Our head is the centre of our whole nervous system and benefits greatly from a focused and stimulated massage. Shirobhyanga can alleviate stress and strains that cause tension, fatigue and insomnia.  

• Chi Nei Tsang - A massage unique to Thailand, the treatment focuses on the naval and surrounding abdominal areas that accumulate stress, tension, and negative emotions. Any obstruction or congestion in this area would mean that the positive circulating energy of the body is blocked which will slowly weaken the internal organs and decrease energy and vitality. Chi Nei Tsang helps to quickly relieve these negative emotions and tension to bring comfort to the abdomen and channel positive energy to the internal organs. This massage is beneficial to those with digestive problems. We recommend a course of three treatments to extract optimum benefits from this type of massage. 

We have a range of activities and exercises aimed at improving your overall health that is led by some of the best trainers and instructors in the industry, including:

• Built upon the science of breath, the practice of pranayama teaches relaxation through deliberate respiration. The benefits of regular practice include slowing the heart rate and increased relaxation. Proper breathing techniques can encourage personal healing and transformational growth. 

• Anapanasati Meditation - A meditation exercise that focuses on your breathing. 

• Gyrokinesis - Combining the benefits of yoga, dance, Tai Chi, and gymnastics to help you stretch deeply for overall total body health.
