  • Yoga (50 mins)
  • Our signature yoga Hua Hin classes run for 50 minutes and are available across all retreat durations. As a leading Hua Hin yoga retreat, Chiva-Som tailors each session to your current level and wellness goals.

  • Pranayama
  • 'Prana' means 'breath', 'respiration', 'life', 'vitality', 'wind', 'energy' or 'strength'. 'Ayama' means length, expansion, stretching or restraint. Pranayama is therefore the science of breath, or the extension of breath and its control. Even as emotional excitement affects the rate of breathing, deliberate regulation of respiration keeps emotional excitement in check. Regular practice of pranayama will slow your heart and bring a subjective experience of relaxation. Proper breathing techniques can create space for personal healing and transformational growth.

  • Oriental Foot Ritual
  • This traditional treatment begins with a ritual cleansing of your feet and legs, letting the tension drift from your body as you experience a deep cleansing skin polish. Our signature massage for feet and legs, together with a herb-infused steamed towel wrap, will bring total relaxation and restore a sense of well-being.

  • Chi Nei Tsang
  • A deep abdominal massage from traditional Chinese medicine decongests the belly area and directs vital energy to your organs. This releases emotional tension as well as digestive issues.

  • Meditation
  • Meditation is a key element of many alternative therapies, often combined with prayer, music and mantra chanting.

It describes a state of consciousness when the mind is free of scattered thoughts and various patterns.
