RAKxa, Bangkok’s leading integrative wellness & medical retreat with SHA Plus standard delivers a fully transformative experience through its innovative integration of preventative healthcare with cutting-edge technology, ancient holistic treatments and immersive nature experiences.

As a ground-breaking enhanced wellness retreat in Thailand, RAKxa has introduced its new “YOUR DNA” programme featuring cutting-edge DNA screening lab tests conducted by the VitalLife Scientific Wellness Center. The screening decodes one’s genetic health risks and begins a personal advanced and holistic medical guidance to lifelong wellbeing.

Dusadee Tancharoen, RAKxa’s Managing Director, comments: “With people placing more value on health and wellness than ever, healthcare has evolved from focusing on the management of disease to the prevention of disease. YOUR DNA programme provides early risk awareness of some of the most serious medical conditions as well as dietary requirements and exercise recommendations to optimize health of the individual with knowledge of one’s genetic makeup.” 

The Scientific DNA Wellness Screening requires blood samples that are taken directly to VitalLife’s on-site laboratory, where the DNA is extracted and analyzed to render the results. The analysis indicates if there is a predisposition to diseases across the 11 priority health areas, including bone health, brain health, toxicity, gluten intolerance, heart health, immune health, lactose intolerance, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and Vitamin D deficiency. For females, hormonal imbalance risks are also assessed.

The all-inclusive and integrated wellness programme consists of seven nights stay, health and wellness consultations, function fitness assessment, three wellness cuisine meals per day, two holistic treatments at RAKxa Jai and RAKxa Gaya, accommodation in a Garden Villa, daily tea break, two medical treatments at VitalLife, complimentary minibar in the Garden Villa, complimentary daily fitness and leisure activities, complimentary use of the water therapy suite including vitality pool, steam room, herbal steam as well as chill shower and cold plunge pool.

The experienced doctors at RAKxa interpret the complex DNA results to help guests devise the most effective wellness treatment plan, dietary requirements and exercise recommendations based on individualised results, allowing guests to take preventative measures and embark on their journey towards optimal health. Based at RAKxa, VitalLife Scientific Wellness Clinic is a subsidiary of Bumrungrad International Hospital and Asia’s first medically driven wellness and vitality clinic focusing on disease prevention, health optimisation and rejuvenation. RAKxa’s partnership with VitalLife further establishes the new fully integrative wellness and medical retreat at the cutting edge of medical technology advances. With international recognition and acclaim achieved over 19 years, VitalLife is a pioneer in delivering preventive, regenerative and scientific-based quality health care with a superlative service reputation which aims to reveal a renewed, refreshed and revitalised self through utilising the latest in international technologies, advanced treatments and cutting-edge medicine.
