FAQ
 |
Why is fasting becoming more popular? |
In the increasingly fast-paced modern world of the
twenty-first century, we need all the means at our disposal to
make the very most of our busy lives. It is all too easy to
neglect our health or personal fulfillment and thus fail to
achieve our real potential. The benefits of Fasting are now
well recognized for those who wish to improve their health,
raise their energy levels, and fight off chronic fatigue and
common minor disorders, it is the best way of invigorating and
refreshing both body and soul.
|
Why should we Fast and Detoxify our
bodies? |
Although it seems that we have been able to cure many diseases
and epidemics with our modern allopathic medicine there are
still many chronic health imbalances that we are unable to
address.
|
Why go to fasting centers and not do
it at home? |
We believe that it is fine to do some light fasting, like
vegetable juice fasting at home, but to do a full- fast using
the cleansers and herbs and other products that we use, is
such a powerful and unique spiritual and physical experience
that it is far better for people to be away from their work
situations and their usual environments.
|
Why fast at The Atsumi Center in
Phuket? |
We are the only fasting resort in Phuket. As
a fasting center, 100% of our focus is on the well-being of
our guests. All of our guests are fasting, which creates a
community of support. Phuket is an international vacation
destination with an international airport and with many direct
flights from around the world. We have some of the finest
beaches and golf courses in the world. We offer world class,
dental and medical services that are a fraction of the
overseas costs for the same services, so it is possible for
people to come and recuperate with us after surgery. We also
have many tourist activities like diving and snorkeling,
duty-free shopping, international dining and a host of other
attractions.
The Atsumi Center is a small resort, that offers "one on
one" training and support through the fasting process at
very affordable prices, while you can chose to stay in a large
range of accommodation possibilities. Because we embrace the
Atsumi philosophy which pays particular attention to the
Emotional Body, we also take a very Holistic approach to the
process of "Body-Mind-Spirit-Continuum"
regeneration. So there are many therapies, treatments and
classes that can also be part of the fasting program.
|
Why isn’t the cost of the
Accommodation included in the Fasting package? |
We offer a variety of accommodation styles, to suit all budget
needs. If you are staying elsewhere in Phuket it is also
possible to fast and cleanse with us by visiting us on a daily
basis for your fasting needs and activities.
|
What is the difference with our
fasting program and others? |
Our fasting program is the "Arise and Shine" seven
or ten day detox program, with colon hydrotherapy twice daily,
massage and yoga included. We have had over 5000 guests go
through this process successfully and with great results. If
you are interested in a less dramatic fast and detox then we
also have other shorter and lighter juice fasts and raw
cleanses.
|
What airport should I fly into? |
The Atsumi Retreat Healing Center is located about 30 minutes
away from Phuket International Airport, which has many direct
international flights.
|

price? |

staying 7 nights or longer. For shorter stays, we will
