Thai spa summit sets theme

The theme of this year’s Wellness Summit 2006 is “Enlivening the Spirit, Kindred Hearts to Healing Passions.” To those of you who need a revival of the industry’s spirit, and the passion and desire to heal this seemingly lacking spirit, come and be revived and rejuvenated by this Summit.

Renowned worldwide as a location that has continuously produced award-winning resort spas and for its tranquil, idyllic feel, Hua Hin - a three-hour drive away from Bangkok - is a perfect destination like no other to gather for a Summit of this significance and depth.

Against such a backdrop, delegates will truly be able to unshackle their minds and spirit, and journey into the realm of wellness and be further inspired, at the end of it all, to work towards achieving the integration and coherence in the industry that this Summit seeks to achieve.
