The world of wellness has been bustling with activity in recent months, with new luxury wellness retreats launching and exciting property openings happening across Asia and beyond. Here’s a roundup of the ones that are on our radar right now …
Wellness Retreats:
RAKxa Integrative Wellness
Since its opening in December 2020, RAKxa Integrative Wellness has emerged as Thailand’s premier medical wellness retreat, blending tradition, technology, and nature to provide transformative healing experiences. Earlier this year, the retreat joined forces with the legendary Dr. Deepak Chopra for a 5-night Life and Soul Longevity Retreat, during which Kate Moss introduced her new incense sticks, “Sacred Mist,” under her brand COSMOSS. We can’t wait to see what else is in store for RAKxa.
