Traditional Spa-Inclusive
Guests of the Sanctuary can make free use of all spa
facilities. We house six rustic and simple designed treatment
rooms with ten treatment beds. Central in the spa centre is
the lounge area with comfortable chairs, where guests can
enjoy a fresh cup of herbal tea, providing them with the
opportunity to pause, relax and focus on their well-being.
The heated, indoor pool is surrounded by
floor-to-ceiling glass doors, providing a magnificent view of
the mountains and valley surrounding the Sanctuary. After an
energizing swim, guests can relax on comfortable deck chairs
on the outdoor terrace of the pool area. To refresh and
rejuvenate after the intense mountain hikes we have two saunas
and steam rooms, one for female guests and one for male
guests. We also have two types of Jacuzzis, whereby one is
equipped for two persons.The practical designed fitness centre
provides all the necessary equipment for a daily work-out.
Part of the spa-inclusive concept is free yoga and
meditation classes, individual or in a group, at beginners or
advanced level. The classes or sessions can take place in the
special designed yoga studio or in the morning sun on the pool
terrace.
Traditional Medicine
The Sanctuary is specialized in traditional Bhutanese
medicine. After arrival, we invite guests to benefit from a
private consultation with the in-house traditional medicine
doctors (included in room rate). The doctors will provide
guests with a complete program to achieve a healthy balance
between body, mind and spirit while they are the Sanctuary and
teach them how to sustain it once they are at home.
The skilled and internationally trained therapists
offer a wide range of treatments rooted in the nature and
well-being tradition of Bhutan. Our signature treatments are:
herbal compression, hot oil compression, moxibustion, herbal
Jacuzzi, herb-infused hot stone bath and Ku Nye massages (full
body, neck, feet, back). All guests are entitled to at least
one traditional treatment per day per person.
In the lounge area, we have a collection of more
than 100 original Bhutanese herbs, which the in-house
traditional medicine doctors use for the Himalayan plant- and
herb-based treatments and therapies. Upon interest, the
traditional medicine doctors take guests for a herbal walk
around the Sanctuary to point out and teach about the benefits
of the herbs.
