New Wellness Haven Layan Life Launches in Phuket

Layan Life by Anantara is a new wellness retreat at Anantara Layan Phuket Resort. It combines modern technology with ancient Thai healing traditions, drawing on over twenty years of wellness experience from Anantara Hotels & Resorts. Layan Life offers personalized wellness programs lasting three to ten days, focusing on overall well-being and celebrating essential life stages.

Located in a natural setting of 1,767 square meters, surrounded by tropical gardens, sandy beaches, and the Andaman Sea, guests are encouraged to start a wellness journey where the healing power of nature is central.

Doctors who specialize in medical care and Thai medicine practitioners have created programs that combine ancient wisdom with advanced medical evaluations and tests, personalized nutrition plans, and guided exercise routines. This approach provides specialized, all-encompassing support for various health goals, including women’s and men’s health, weight management, stress reduction, fitness, and anti-ageing.

Layan Life by Anantara celebrates life's journey and focuses on health and happiness. The brand believes in offering a variety of wellness experiences for its guests, including activities and adventures for individuals and families. At Layan Life, families are welcome at Anantara Layan Resort and provided with plenty of activities to keep children entertained while parents focus on their wellness goals. This includes dedicated Kids Zones, beach and water sports, and various adventures in the Active Zone.

The Layan Life journey starts with a thorough wellness consultation and a diagnostic check-up. This includes epigenetic testing and advanced physiotherapy with 3D body scans to create an accurate blueprint of your health. A team of medical professionals will then analyze the results. Thai Medicine doctors and physiotherapists will develop personalized programs using the Life Method, which combines four critical pillars of wellness: Longevity Medicine, Traditional Thai Medicine (TTM), Complementary Medicine, and Lifestyle Medicine.

Layan Life embodies Anantara's Thai heritage and honours the four elements at the core of Thai Traditional Medicine (TTM): earth, water, wind, and fire. Specialized treatments from experienced practitioners in this ancient healing practice include herbal remedies and hands-on therapies to promote physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Modern medical and holistic therapies complement these.

The building is designed to blend with nature and make the most of the location. It has neutral colours, open spaces, and lots of natural light. The building has two floors. The lower level has a gym, yoga and Pilates studio, meditation rooms, hydrotherapy area with pools, saunas, and a steam room. The upper floor has medical and holistic facilities, consultation rooms, physiotherapy, TTM, aesthetic treatments, IV procedures, and medical treatments, including an ice pod, a hyperbaric chamber, and hydrocolonic therapies. There is also a Thai herbal dispensary where personalized herbs are prescribed.

The retreat believes that playing is essential for healing. Layan Life’s location offers a variety of fun activities for all guests. The Active Zone has tennis courts, a Muay Thai ring, a climbing wall, and archery. The Outdoor Fitness area offers ziplining, mountain biking, a beach boot camp, and water sports like kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and windsurfing. You can also participate in craft workshops, Thai language and cultural etiquette classes, temple tours, hands-on cooking classes, Thai tea tasting, and excursions to nearby islands.

Wellness Chef Filippo Tawil carefully created the Food for Life concept. It includes fresh whole foods influenced by wellness food philosophies. All dishes are free from gluten, dairy, and processed sugars and provide a balance of high-quality nutrients. Layan Life believes in enjoying traditional and popular dishes with a healthy twist as part of embracing life to the fullest.

The resort's Anantara Spa offers a range of treatments, indigenous experiences, spa and hydrotherapies, and spiritual rituals. It also provides high-tech facials, including Anantara signature massages and Himalayan singing bowl sound therapies, to enhance the well-being experience.

Customized packages like Active for Life, Mindfulness for Life, and Beauty for Life include three daily meals, specialized treatments, group classes, wellness talks, and special room rates at Anantara Layan Phuket Resort.
