Location:

• Located in the legendary Golden Triangle – where Thailand, Burma (Myanmar) and Laos meet – at the confluence of the Ruak and Mekong Rivers
• The area was once infamously known as a centre of the opium trade

Signature Treatments:

• Mahout Recovery (90 minutes): Unwind from an elephant adventure as large poultices filled with camphor, lime and lemongrass massage the whole body.
• Ruak Bamboo (90 minutes): After a foot bath of refreshing makrut lime grown at the Camp, local herbal oils and smooth natural bamboo sticks target deep-seated muscle tension.
• Doi Tung Rejuvenator (90 minutes): Enjoy the taste of the Orient, as meridian channels and acupuncture points are awakened. Soothing aromatic oils combined with kneading and stretching leave the body completely relaxed and refreshed. Reflexology is also used, to assist in the release of energy blockages and toxins.
