Wellness, Spa and Health
Chiva-Som stands as a trailblazer in the realm of wellness tourism, and one might even say the concept of retreats found its origin here. With a selection of 12 special retreats to choose from, including detox, weight loss, anti-stress, fitness, and relaxation, guests are presented with a wide array of options. These programs seamlessly integrate traditional eastern techniques with modern western methods. The retreat experience commences with an intake consultation and check-up, during which your preferences and goals are thoughtfully discussed. This information serves as the foundation for determining the most suitable program for you.
The treatments are conducted in the luxurious spa, meticulously designed with an emphasis on detail, offering a serene and spacious environment where you'll receive personalized attention. The wellness center boasts 70 treatment rooms, along with amenities such as a sauna, Jacuzzi, steam room, indoor pool (approximately 80m2), a watsu-pool, relaxation areas, and water beds. There's also a 100m2 gym with personal trainers available for individual guidance and private training sessions.

We hebben enorm genoten van een verkwikkende en volle week in Chiva - Som! Alles op deze luxe wellnessbestemming loopt als een goed geoliede machine - moderne faciliteiten, nauwgezette aandacht voor detail en een hoge standaard van uitmuntendheid. Van de rustgevende omgeving tot de wellness-adviseurs die u helpen een ervaring samen te stellen die aan uw eisen voldoet. De ervaren fitnesstrainers en -instructeurs, de revalidatie- en fysiotherapie-experts, de therapeutische spabehandelingen en de gezonde en uitzonderlijk lekkere keuken - alles en iedereen is ontworpen om uw welzijnsreis te ondersteunen. We hebben genoten van de mindfulness-pranayama-sessies, dagelijkse yoga en aqua-aerobicslessen ten zeerste aan. We gingen weg en voelden ons gerevitaliseerd en begrijpen nu echt waarom zoveel gasten regelmatig terugkomen naar Chiva - Som. We missen het nu al!
Chiva Som is meer dan alleen een prachtig wellnessresort. Het is een gezondheidsretraite met personeel dat u begeleidt met zo veel of zo weinig als u wilt. Heerlijk eten. Een transformatief verblijf. Het holistische gezondheidsteam identificeert medische problemen van gasten en knijpt elk laatste greintje negatieve energie uit je in lessen die variëren van fysio tot kinesiologie.
Chiva-Som has the best place to de-stress from the outside world. The staff are trained to be sensitive and makes the bill worth footing. Their medical centre has lots of options if people need various treatments. Health, relaxation, yoga, fitness, facilities, food. Good consultation guidance on the total program.
Geweldige Wellness.. Ik raad aan om minimaal 7 nachten te blijven als je tijdens je bezoek je ontwikkeling mee te maken.

Een prachtig wellnessresort aan het strand. Hoogst gewaardeerde instructeurs met iedere hun eigenlijk vakgebied zorgen voor je tijdens het verblijf. De Japanse arts geeft acupunctuur om u te verlichten van pijn en stress. Thaise en andere soorten behandelingen zijn heel professioneel. Yoga, Tai Chi, stretchen en zoveel andere dingen die je kunt doen.
Het maaltijden die worden geserveerd zijn gezond en lekker.
