Widely-considered to be the regional wellness hub, Thailand contains everything tourists need to unwind and improve their quality of life, sealed in an all-in-one package. With health and therapeutic services ranging from spa services to wellness resorts, tourists tend to go for different kinds of treatment to relax and find balance in their fast-paced life.

Dental

Thailand lives up to its title of being the “Land of Smiles” by providing reasonably-priced yet high quality-dental treatments through the use of state-of-the-art technology. One of the most popular treatments people opt for is teeth whitening, which costs around $750 in Singapore. However, you could save up to 50% on dental expenses if you get it done in Thailand.

Healthcare & Aesthetics

Every year, an average of about a million people travel to Thailand to receive medical care. Ranging from simple health check-ups to complex surgical procedures, Thailand is a leading destination for medical tourism in Asia. Some of the most frequently-visited hospitals among tourists are the Bangkok Hospital and Phyathai Hospital, which are driven by advanced technology and managed by professional medical staff who provide exceptional service to patients.

Furthermore, Thailand is also a popular destination for affordable cosmetic procedures like liposuction, eye lifts and more. Since most cosmetic surgeons are trained in the West and can speak English, receiving guidance and seeking professional advice for treatments is accessible to most tourists. 

Traditional Thai Medicine

If you face any discomfort in your body, you can take a trip down to a traditional Thai medicine clinic in Thailand to experience the essence of traditional Thai medicine, where knowledge and customs of practices like herbal medicine have been passed down from Thai ancestors to diagnose and combat illnesses. 

One of the most popular treatments is the Thai traditional massage. Through techniques like acupressure and compression, professional masseuses will help to ease muscle tension and stimulate circulation in your body. The recommended duration for a good massage session typically lasts around 2 hours, where prices start from as low as 500 baht. 

Spa and wellness resorts

To rejuvenate the body and mind, you can also visit spa resorts and choose between a myriad of massage and beauty packages for different parts of your body such as facial treatments, manicures, pedicures, aromatherapy and many more. With relaxing music, nice ambience, and impeccable service, you’ll feel like you’re on cloud nine. 

For people who would like to relax and improve their well-being, there are also wellness resorts in Thailand that provide customized meal and treatment plans through activities such as medical gym, yoga and spa sessions.

Muay Thai 

If you’d like a good sweat to strengthen your body, Muay Thai Boxing gyms are widely accessible around cities in Thailand and in some resorts. Known as the “art of eight limbs”, enjoy a one-of-a-kind experience as you learn the basics of Thailand’s national sport through a series of kicks and punches. With dedicated trainers, one hour is all you need to experience the thrill of Muay Thai.

Besides all these benefits and services, tourists can also travel to Thailand to eat, shop and have fun exploring Thailand’s famous attractions. Hence, if you’re in need of a getaway, Thailand is the best wellness paradise you can visit to relieve stress, restore your health and improve your mind-body connection.
