TESTIMONIALS


Darren (10 Days Full Fast) August 2010


Thanks so much to a wonderful team and a wonderful program. The energy and knowledge I have gained will hold me in good stead for many years to come. For the first time I am leaving a program feeling my propensity to think negative thoughts is over.



Augusto (7 Days Full Fast) August 2010

Atsumi was a life changing experience. I now believe I can change the way we live confidently. I feel mentally and physically energized and motivated to change our lifestyle and eating habits for the better. Thank you so much for making this possible!



LaKisha (10 Days Full Fast + 1 Day Raw Fast) - August 2010


I am so happy I found this place! When I initially came it was because of the weight loss possibilities but by the time I left I realized that weight loss was just a wonderful side effect – cleansing and detoxing from our day to day living and learning ways to live a healthier lifestyle are the real prizes from this experience! Atsumi is a holistic package for Emotional and Physical healing.

Martyn Type II Diabetic (10 Day Full Fast)

Martyn Photos

Martyn - Type II Diabetic. (Tracing Blood sugars for a month, with a ten day stay at Atsumi in the middle.) 3 Days prior to a 10 day total fast I was at 12 on my blood meter whilst taking 850 Metformin twice a day. The Metformin was not getting me below the magical 6 on my blood monitor. Five days only into the fast I was below (6) which is classified as “non diabetic “A brief but great feeling” That is without using the Metformin. This is my fourth year of going to Atsumi, and I find it the best way to control sugar levels for myself, and for anyone!! Like the weight reduction that Atsumi delivers to everyone, I find the sugar levels do climb back up along with ones weight after leaving Atsumi, but it enables me to get back to ground zero and better monitor and manage the condition.

On Feb 15th 2007 I was planning my first visit to Atsumi. I was chilling out in a resort very close and phoned to possibly change my mind. I was worried it would prove to be too ‘hippy’ is the only way I can describe it. However I was talked into giving it a try and with trepidation arrived on the 16th. Well what can I say. After a 13 year relationship split, a new home in a foreign country and too many litres of red wine, beer, vodka and tons of comfort eating, I was in need of finding the happy contented extrovert I normally am.

I checked in at 89kgs (this being the biggest issue I had) and spent 16 days fasting. I left feeling amazing and formed some great friendships that are still going. I laughed a lot, and even when I was being ill I enjoyed every moment.

I went home worried that I would destroy all the hard work and good progress but..what did you do to me..did you knock me on my head…no..you just nurtured me and made me realise I was not a loser, drunk or downtrodden person. I embraced a new life and by Dec 2007 I was the proud owner of an abandoned Labrador and a body that was 25kgs lighter. My confidence was back, I was laughing at everything and continued to eat well, drink no alcohol (over 20 moths) and enjoy being my old self once more.

I started to let old habits creep back in so in Jan 2009, I revisited Atsumi for a second time. What an amazing change…the fundamentals, ideas and wonderful staff were still there but the additions to the center enhanced the experience even more…new accommodation, 2 swimming pools, steam sauna, daily massage, and Shell who is a breath of fresh air. I had snook up to 74kgs…so started again. Kicked started and got back on track. 2 colemas a day – great.

I then profited from a business visit to Singapore and shot down again in Sept 2009. Today I feel great..I had a blast and met such great people…and they are the ones that make it the success, together with the ambiance and the fantastic staff (all of them).

Visit number 4 was in March 2010 and met a couple of guys who had also been before, even more improvements but still the most marvelous ambience.

I am again on raw all by myself, no alcohol and weighed in today at 66.5kgs and still going down.

Whenever I feel that I need to take stock of me and my life I head straight back for a couple of weeks and put things back in perspective. I am making this an annual visit ..

I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Shasta (7 Day Full Fast) - July 2010

I was skeptical at first but there is no doubt about it the results with the 4 day full fast does make a difference (I lost 4.5kg) and it does make you think about what you are putting in your body.



Cassandra (10 Days Full Fast) - June 2010


Atsumi was the perfect place to come to do some much needed work on myself. In 10 days of fasting I lost 5.8kgs. I met a lot of great people and thoroughly enjoyed new activities like yoga, meditation and thai boxing. Atsumi has reminded me of the benefits of investing in myself and I look forward to continuing my journey of health and well-being back home.

I have been going to health centers for 20 years. Atsumi is the only one that provides results and gives enough to take home and make permanent lifestyle changes. All this in an unpretentious way

Dana (7 Day Program) June 2010


I had been travelling for over six months and felt exhausted and bloated. My clothes didn’t fit right. I decided to do the detox programme to reward my body for its hard work in carrying me successfully through foreign lands. It’s one of the best decisions I have ever made. I feel like a new person!

Gary then went on to train at the Rawai Muay Thai Camp and during his stay in Phuket , he lost a total of 20KG and 21cm off his waist. Go Gary! He then went on to make us all very proud by completing a Triathalon here in Phuket before returning to Australia. Gary will soon be competing in the Iron Man contest in his home country.

“In 2006, I was 110KG with more than 30% body fat, I was Fat, Tired and Depressed, I lived on a diet of fried chicken, coke, pizza, mcdonalds and fried rice. I flew to Phuket in September 2008 and completed 7 day full fast, I lost 1 KG per day but more importantly developed a strong distate for processed and packaged foods, stopped drinking coke and alcohol and found a new motivation to exercise and change my life for the better.

I joined a local Muay thai camp and continued eating healthy and exercising vigorously, one year on, I returned to Atsumi and completed a 4 day full fast this time weighing in at 80KG. I went on to fight in my first muay thai fight in Decemebr 2009, I feel fit and strong both physically and mentally, Thank you Atsumi for giving me the motivation to change my life!”

David (57 Yrs old - May 2010)


I visited Atsumi in May 2010 for the prime reason of losing weight and was very successful- 6Kgs over 6 ½ days, full fast. I was surprised how easy the day to day detox/colema program was to follow and found the days interesting and full.

The morning and evening activities kept me busy and I was able to “TRY” some holistic (from the activities list) services.

I found all the staff is very friendly, helpful and always willing to assist and make me stay a successful + happy one. Many participating were repeat customers and I will be certainly return myself sometime in the future.

Michelle and the staff fully explained the benefits of holistic healing. Including the colema process, human anatomy and important information pertaining to transitioning out of the detox. I am confident that with the knowledge I have gained I will be able to transition “back on” to Raw foods. I feel I understand the bodies need to detox and the importance of getting rid of “Mucoid Plague”.


Telen (May 2010)


As it was my first visit at a detox center, I didn't quite know what to expect. The Atsumi team were highly professional and respectful around personal issues and the staff in general were heaps of fun. Atsumi has a really warm heart - it was really easy to settle into the programme.


Rebecca (May 2010)

I came to Atsumi stressed and overwhelmed with several pressing issues in my life. Within days I was able to see things differently and make proactive plans. I leave here feeling strong, calm, and centered, my mind and body rejuvinated.



Rana (April 2010)


I heard about Atsumi through a friend and I joined it to lose weight, at the beginning I was devastated but as days went by I started to enjoy it because I started seeing the results, the detox is amazing I’ve done it twice before at other places but never got these results, my face was glowing, my skin is shining, and I feel much healthier…. SO, YES I WILL DO IT AGAIN.


Damian (April 2010)


I came here exhausted, and questioning my priorities in life. One week here resolved all these issues. I believe that looking back I'll see this as the best investment I ever made.


Donna (April 2010)


The experience was more than worth it. The results were amazing. You were well educated on the whole process and felt your accomplishments at the end of your stay it will add years to your life.


Laura


Laura came to us in desperation to clear up an unexplained rash that nothing could cure. She had previously visited 3 doctors and even a course of Antibiotics didn’t stop the rash from spreading. In just 7 days the rash was completely gone and as an added bonus she managed to shed 5KG in the process.

Well Done Laura

Words cannot explain how amazing I feel. This has been the best 10 days ever. I am so proud of myself for making the effort to heal myself. The rewards are worth every penny spent. I will recommend Atsumi to anyone who cares about their well-being. The people are so kind and helpful and I am leaving a much happier and positive person, ready to achieve the very best out of life. Thank you for everything you have taught me.

Fantastic all-around detox getaway. I feel great and I have good a good week. Thank you to absolutely everybody that has made it possible: management, cleaners, cooks, gardeners, taxi drivers, massage staff, colema room attendants. Everybody ensured I had a perfect stay.

I could not have wished for a better way to relax and center, it was really a special time for me and you made it just everything I could have wished for. My skin feels and looks wonderful and my hair is shiny again. I just feel and look so much healthier. I really feel ready for my next path in life now and I can’t think of a better way I could have begun it.

“I went to the Nepal Mountains, in search of Spirituality, I went to sacred places, in search of Inspiration and Guidance, I went to the Sahara Desert, in search of God, I went to many deserted islands, in search of myself. I’ve traveled the world, in search of Love. I did not know that all of these were right there, in me; 4 days of fast only, and my mind is clear, I’ve founded The Path. So! all this talks about Spirituality at the Atsumi Healing Center, I couldn’t care less. Been there, done that, thanks for not trying it on me. Just give me the program for fasting, cleansing and yoga. Then, wow! Since my third day of fasting I have had so many breakthroughs, insights and visions. I am feeling so much joy and strength! I’m back on track! Hey, World, hey People, all Living Beings, here I am. 


Derek U.K.


“Thank you for a truly life changing experience here at Atsumi. Fourteen days ago I was smoking twenty cigarettes a day and living on fast food and beer. I was overweight, had excema, ear problems, permanent backache, and mouth ulcers, and was tired all the time. Following your simple program of daily massage, Yoga, Fasting and Colonic Hydro-therapy I have made some astonishing breakthroughs and now feel like I have shed the old me and been reborn. Toungs is now pink, where it had always been yellow. All my physical ailments have vanished and I feel more alive than I have ever felt before. For the first time I know that I will not return to former destructive habits. 


Maggie

Thank you for your wisdom, humor and reassurance. I refused to believe this was good for me, but it’s all so true. I feel like a rainbow!

What an amazing week! I have rediscovered the joy that was there all along and relaxed more deeply than I can remember. I fully enjoyed the morning and evening yoga classes in the lovely sala overlooking the lotus pond.

I thank you for a fantastic, healthy, holistic, spiritual week. I feel like a million dollars

The experience at Atsumi was wonderful and I am feeling so cleansed and refreshed; such a wonderful way to start the year. It was amazing to be in a place where the positive energy was so obvious, and also contagious!
