Their line of yoga, pilates, and meditation sessions/programs are well known to detoxify the body, heart, mind and spirit from various traumas, lifestyle choices and living a stressful existence.

At this ultimate spa getaway you’ll find yourself experiencing sleep enhancement, emotional balance, detoxes, and even personal yoga synergy. If you’d like to dive into Asian culture, partake in traditional Asian healing treatments such as Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, and meditation. Or treat yourself to traditional spa treatments with a detoxifying oriental body scrub, aloe vera wrap, or even a facial.
