The Farm at San Benito: Journey to a healthier mind and body

-

With just a few days dedicated to rest and healing, anyone can reverse or at least repair the negative effects of pollution and poor lifestyle choices on our well-being. Thankfully, programs exist to do just that. In the Philippine­s, The Farm at San Benito is the ideal destinatio­n to begin the journey to a healthier mind and body. A Trip Advisor Hall of Famer and recipient of awards as one of the world’s best medical resorts, The Farm has detox cleanse programs and specialize­d healing retreats sure to rejuvenate and restore from within.

Sometimes, spending four nights of focused detox, coupled with relaxation, is all one needs to begin that journey to wellness. An expertly managed mix of meditation and exercise gets the body primed for a more active life. Nourishing vegan cuisine helps the body cleanse itself from within and revs up one’s metabolism, aiding in that goal to build a fit and more resilient body. In this detox cleanse program, healing sanctuary spa treatments and integrated medical services become key points of the retreat, further strengthen­ing the health gains during one’s brief stay at The Farm.

Health seekers yearning for that deeper detox retreat will appreciate the six-night program. Here, the vegan diet takes center stage. Guests begin with the soups and salads, gradually transiting to full juice fasts, should they want it. These juices, using only the best fruits, vegetables, and herbs, serve as natural gut cleaners while infusing the body with all the nourishmen­t it needs. Part of this experience is the targeted organ detox and colon hydrothera­py — should guests opt for it and only if their well-being permits. While all treatments at The Farm are carefully administer­ed by medical and hospitalit­y profession­als, a guest’s safety is always ensured before undergoing any procedure. A modest amount of exercise and meditation also forms part of this experience, but it is more geared towards calming effects, easing the guest through the detox.

With a wide selection of healing sanctuary spa treatments and integrated medical services, guests can have their pick of other six-night programs that fit their wellness goal. Anyone looking for a more refreshed, more vibrant self can indulge in the Beauty and Longevity retreat. The Vitality retreat serves as a more thorough detox program, with treatments that fully purge toxins trapped inside the body. The Organic Weight Loss retreat offers a more rigorous fitness regimen coupled with vegan cuisine and juice fasts. Those yearning for a little bit of everything can experience the Wellness Holiday. These specialize­d healing retreats all include the new Pure Wave, Pure Flow, Pure Light technologi­es that serve as health aids using unique wavelength­s of light, bio-pressure, and frequencie­s that break down fat and help the body absorb more nutrients. In the Southeast Asian region, only The Farm utilizes these new devices that take healing to a much higher level.

Life is best enjoyed fit, healthy, and with a more balanced sense of self. Book a retreat with the Farm to get that journey to wellness started.
