Detox in Thailand



The pre and post cleanse involved in a detox

A detox is something that should be done only after you have completed some thorough research and ideally should be done in a professional setting. The ideal place to complete a detox is at a health and wellness retreat such as The Yoga Retreat on Koh Phangan, where you can take advantage of professional advise and guidance as well as a peaceful and relaxing environment. Whether you decide to a DIY detox or to complete on in the safe surroundings of a retreat, two things that you must be aware of is the pre cleanse and the post-detox procedure. A detox is going to have a big impact on your body so it’s essential that you prepare for it and come out of it using the proper methods.


When you go on a detox, the energy that your body would normally be spend on digesting your food is able to go to cleansing and rejuvenating your system. In order for it to work effectively you need to a pre cleanse for between one and three days. This will involve you cutting out fatty, sugary and acidic foods as well as alcohol and caffeine and sticking to fruits and vegetables. When it comes to your detox and cutting out food altogether, your body will find it much easier to do its job. The post detox is similar to the pre cleanse and involves you introducing food back into your body slowly and healthily, starting with small portions and again lots of fruit and vegetables.
