IT’S IRONIC THAT I am writing this past midnight. If the name ChivaSom rings a bell, you’d get it. A serious contender for one of the best health retreats in the world, Chiva-Som means ‘haven of life’ in Thai, and by that definition, it is where all healing journeys begin.

Since its inception as Asia’s first wellness resort in 1995, Chiva-Som has attracted a steadfast following of health aficionados and the rich and famous, such as Kate Moss and the Beckhams. Resting beachside in Hua Hin, an idyllic seaside town of markets, golf, bars and restaurants, it is typically a three-hour drive from Bangkok (two, if you’re lucky) or if you enjoy making an entrance, 50 minutes by helicopter.
