Phuket Vegetarian Festival at Phuket Thailand
Phuket Vegetarian Festival
66 (0) 7621 1036, 66 (0) 762
Phuket Vegetarian Festival : 08 - 16 October
The Phuket Vegetarian Festival is an annual event held during the ninth lunar month of the Chinese calendar. It is believed that the vegetarian festival and its accompanying sacred rituals bestow good fortune upon those who religiously observe this rite. During this time, local residents of Chinese ancestry strictly observe a 10-day vegetarian or vegan diet for the purposes of spiritual cleansing and merit-making. Sacred rituals are performed at various Chinese shrines and temples and aesthetic displays such as walking barefooted over hot coals and ascending ladders with bladed rungs are performed by entranced devotees known as "Ma Song".
Phuket Island seems like a curious place for a vegetarian festival, but the Phuket Vegetarian Festival has become world renowned for its food and its curious religious rites. Held during the 9th Chinese lunar month, typically September or October, the vegetarian festival spans the first nine days of the lunar month. During that time, Buddhists of Chinese descent follow a strict vegetarian diet, wear white clothing, and observe a set of rules that are intended to purify their bodies and minds.
All that seems well and good, but what has drawn the greatest publicity (other than the outstanding vegetarian food of course) is the unique manner in which some attempt to purify themselves during a procession of asceticism. On the 6th day of the vegetarian festival, after fasting for several days, devotees known as “soldiers of god” commit feats of self mutilation and tests of intense pain, including piercing themselves with needles and knives and walking across hot coals.
Around Phuket, in addition to large flags hung in honor of the event, 9 lanterns are lit up and placed aloft on Ko Teng poles to symbolize the presence of the deities throughout the Phuket Vegetarian Festival. On the last day, there is a “Koi Han” ceremony to exorcize ill fortune, and a finally a farewell ceremony for the deities at night.

Thailand Health Spa
Health & Spa
Caring for body and mind
Why fly to Thailand when you have health care on your own doorstep? Well, long waiting lists, stressed-out nursing staff, overworked doctors, busy hospitals, exorbitant medical bills, and recovery time spent stuck in the confines of your own home, all make the prospect of medical treatment none to appealing. But a trip to Thailand can turn into one of the most positive experience of your lifetime. No matter where you are from, whichever facilities is chosen, whether contemplating a check-up, a major medical procedure or a revitalizing spa treatments, you will enjoy prompt attention, immaculate comfort, the services of highly professional staff, and friendly faces.
Leading-edge treatment
Home to Asia’s first internationally accredited health facility, Thailand’s ultra-new and modern hospitals are less than a decade old and feel more like luxury hotels catering to tourists, than places to treat the infirm. Thailand currently has over 400 private hospitals scattered throughout the kingdom. Most of these are staffed by western-trained doctors and specialists, thereby ensuring the best possible care. While standards are world-class, costs are far lower than those for comparable services in the US or Europe.
Popular procedures
It is not just curative medicine and check-ups that are available. Popular procedures include cardiac surgery, knee and hip replacement surgery, dialysis treatment, cosmetic surgery and treatment, oral surgery and dental treatment, and corrective eye surgery. Many leading hospitals also have specialized medical centers for cancer, ear nose and throat, neurosurgery, urology, diabetes, endocrinology, and all other key medical disciplines.
Pampering professionalism
Many visitors are overwhelmed by the tenderness given by Thailand’s care providers, claiming that their warmth and understanding was a valuable part in the treatment and speedy recovery. An online system makes it quick and easy to search for doctors, view their medical track-records and fix a meeting for a health vacation in Thailand.
Services at leading private hospitals include airport transfers, international insurance coordination, and fully-serviced rooms. There are also super-fast mobile medical services, including by helicopter and aircraft, while patient records can be swiftly obtained via the internet. As you reluctantly prepare yourself for your homeward departure, all your detailed medical records will be faultlessly complied and can either be presented to you as you leave, or forwarded to your GP back home.
Tropical convalescence
Whether you choose to breath in the fresh mountain air of the North, soak in the turquoise seawater that washes the white powder beaches along the southern and eastern coastline, explore the forested national parks that enrich the whole country, feast daily on delectable local cuisine, visit the country’s wealth of fabulous tourist attractions, golf at one of Thailand’s many internationally designed lush, green fairways, or just lay back, recuperating from your medical treatment will be speedy and thoroughly enjoyable. For the first time in your life you will think of health care as being a memorable experience!
Traditional healing in modern facilities
An increasing number of wellness facilities have turned to indigenous Thai folk wisdom and traditional Asian remedies in search of tried and true solutions to stress and illness. This realm of the experience incorporates Thai massage, meditation, tai chi, yoga, and acupuncture. The combination of modern and traditional, along with a level of care that tops many hospitals in the West, combine to create the most complete health packages available.
Thai massage and meditation
An established practice in spas and fitness centers everywhere, Thai massage combines yoga and acupressure techniques, manipulating the body’s internal energy using pressure points and yoga positions. It stretches the spine and pulls on joints to leave the body loose and relaxed, ultimately fostering flexibility and relieving tension. Wat Pho, the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, is the traditional center of learning for Thai massage techniques and intensive course are available for those wish to learn more about the techniques.
Meditation is a part of Thai life. It can be applied to daily life, aiding concentration and leading to a state of calm, no matter where the meditation is performed. Meditation teaching is widely available in Thailand for Thais and visitors alike, ranging from English language day classes in Bangkok through to intensive month-long courses at remote retreats in the provinces.
Alternative medicine
Instead of conventional medicine, many people turn to alternative forms of medicine such as Traditional Chinese Medicines and Ayurveda Medicine for prevention and treatment of diseases.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a 4,000-year-old Chinese healing technique using acupuncture, moxibustion, massage and Chinese herbal medicine to create balance of the body. It has become a popular option for all kinds of conditions, from pain disorders and PMS to paralysis and nausea. TCM treatment is available at major private hospitals and medical spas.
Ayurvedic treatments are now offered at several of the country’s top spas with Indian practitioners advising on how to apply the time-honored principles in healing and how to use them to make adjustments to lifestyle in order to maintain wellness. Treatments include massage, herbs, controlled breathing, yoga, meditation and diet.
Heavenly land of spas
A harmonious blend of cultural heritage and destination diversity has made Thailand an infinitely attractive spa destination. Spas themselves are aesthetically pleasing in Thai atmosphere with the welcome accorded by pleasant, smiling staffs and therapists at the first stage. Thai spas now compete on an equal footing with the cosmopolitan capitals of the world. Since 1999, they have figured in the world’s top five: The Oriental Bangkok, the Banyan Tree Phuket, Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai and Amanpuri Phuket. Chiva-Som in Hua Hin was rated the world’s number one destination spa.
A typical Thai spa presents a choice of traditional Thai massage with Swedish, Javanese, and sports massage. Jet lag recovery treatment, aromatherapy, reflexology, foot massage are also on the list, with skin care treatments such as facials, mud and body wraps, scrubs, as well as acupressure, herbal steams, and floral baths. They are also developing their own lines of products that utilize the qualities of Thai herbs contributing to a renaissance of traditional Thai herbal recipes and ancient remedies prized for the healing power of their natural ingredients.

Thailand currently has over 400 private hospitals scattered throughout the kingdom. Most of these are staffed by western-trained doctors and specialists, thereby ensuring the best possible care. While standards are world-class, costs are far lower than those for comparable services in the US or Europe.
Popular procedures
It is not just curative medicine and check-ups that are available. Popular procedures include cardiac surgery, knee and hip replacement surgery, dialysis treatment, cosmetic surgery and treatment, oral surgery and dental treatment, and corrective eye surgery. Many leading hospitals also have specialized medical centers for cancer, ear nose and throat, neurosurgery, urology, diabetes, endocrinology, and all other key medical disciplines.
Pampering professionalism
Many visitors are overwhelmed by the tenderness given by Thailand’s care providers, claiming that their warmth and understanding was a valuable part in the treatment and speedy recovery. An online system makes it quick and easy to search for doctors, view their medical track-records and fix a meeting for a health vacation in Thailand.
Services at leading private hospitals include airport transfers, international insurance coordination, and fully-serviced rooms. There are also super-fast mobile medical services, including by helicopter and aircraft, while patient records can be swiftly obtained via the internet. As you reluctantly prepare yourself for your homeward departure, all your detailed medical records will be faultlessly complied and can either be presented to you as you leave, or forwarded to your GP back home.
Tropical convalescence
Whether you choose to breath in the fresh mountain air of the North, soak in the turquoise seawater that washes the white powder beaches along the southern and eastern coastline, explore the forested national parks that enrich the whole country, feast daily on delectable local cuisine, visit the country’s wealth of fabulous tourist attractions, golf at one of Thailand’s many internationally designed lush, green fairways, or just lay back, recuperating from your medical treatment will be speedy and thoroughly enjoyable. For the first time in your life you will think of health care as being a memorable experience!
Traditional healing in modern facilities
An increasing number of wellness facilities have turned to indigenous Thai folk wisdom and traditional Asian remedies in search of tried and true solutions to stress and illness. This realm of the experience incorporates Thai massage, meditation, tai chi, yoga, and acupuncture. The combination of modern and traditional, along with a level of care that tops many hospitals in the West, combine to create the most complete health packages available.
Thai massage and meditation
An established practice in spas and fitness centers everywhere, Thai massage combines yoga and acupressure techniques, manipulating the body’s internal energy using pressure points and yoga positions. It stretches the spine and pulls on joints to leave the body loose and relaxed, ultimately fostering flexibility and relieving tension. Wat Pho, the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, is the traditional center of learning for Thai massage techniques and intensive course are available for those wish to learn more about the techniques.
Meditation is a part of Thai life. It can be applied to daily life, aiding concentration and leading to a state of calm, no matter where the meditation is performed. Meditation teaching is widely available in Thailand for Thais and visitors alike, ranging from English language day classes in Bangkok through to intensive month-long courses at remote retreats in the provinces.
Alternative medicine
Instead of conventional medicine, many people turn to alternative forms of medicine such as Traditional Chinese Medicines and Ayurveda Medicine for prevention and treatment of diseases.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a 4,000-year-old Chinese healing technique using acupuncture, moxibustion, massage and Chinese herbal medicine to create balance of the body. It has become a popular option for all kinds of conditions, from pain disorders and PMS to paralysis and nausea. TCM treatment is available at major private hospitals and medical spas.
Ayurvedic treatments are now offered at several of the country’s top spas with Indian practitioners advising on how to apply the time-honored principles in healing and how to use them to make adjustments to lifestyle in order to maintain wellness. Treatments include massage, herbs, controlled breathing, yoga, meditation and diet.
Heavenly land of spas
A harmonious blend of cultural heritage and destination diversity has made Thailand an infinitely attractive spa destination. Spas themselves are aesthetically pleasing in Thai atmosphere with the welcome accorded by pleasant, smiling staffs and therapists at the first stage. Thai spas now compete on an equal footing with the cosmopolitan capitals of the world. Since 1999, they have figured in the world’s top five: The Oriental Bangkok, the Banyan Tree Phuket, Four Seasons Resort Chiang Mai and Amanpuri Phuket. Chiva-Som in Hua Hin was rated the world’s number one destination spa.
A typical Thai spa presents a choice of traditional Thai massage with Swedish, Javanese, and sports massage. Jet lag recovery treatment, aromatherapy, reflexology, foot massage are also on the list, with skin care treatments such as facials, mud and body wraps, scrubs, as well as acupressure, herbal steams, and floral baths. They are also developing their own lines of products that utilize the qualities of Thai herbs contributing to a renaissance of traditional Thai herbal recipes and ancient remedies prized for the healing power of their natural ingredients.
Aromatherapy, commonly associated with complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), is the use of volatile liquid plant materials, known as essential oils (EOs), and other aromatic compounds from plants for the purpose of affecting a person's mood or health. Scientific research on the cause and effect of aromatherapy is limited, though at least some benefits, such as relaxation and clarity of mind, have been linked to aromatherapy.
The fact that aromatherapy is associated in some instances with Astrology, as well as a variety of alternative medical practices and spiritual beliefs requires that the term 'aromatherapy' be understood as at best a generic one, related to an eclectic set of practices and theories. It is also worth noting that the term has a particularly Western currency and persuasion, in general. This is not to say that systems of medical treatment involving aromatic scents do not exist outside of the West, but rather that those systems may or may not be intended by the term 'aromatherapy'.
Caring for body and mind
Why fly to Thailand when you have health care on your own doorstep? Well, long waiting lists, stressed-out nursing staff, overworked doctors, busy hospitals, exorbitant medical bills, and recovery time spent stuck in the confines of your own home, all make the prospect of medical treatment none to appealing. But a trip to Thailand can turn into one of the most positive experience of your lifetime. No matter where you are from, whichever facilities is chosen, whether contemplating a check-up, a major medical procedure or a revitalizing spa treatments, you will enjoy prompt attention, immaculate comfort, the services of highly professional staff, and friendly faces.

Thailand King talk to Thai people.
BANGKOK, Jan 1 (TNA) – Thailand’s revered and beloved King Bhumibol Adulyadej has asked his subjects to work with utmost efficiency and for the benefit of the public interest.
King Bhumibol, who has been hospitalised at Bangkok’s Siriraj Hospital since September 19, initially with a lung infection and fever, said in his New Year message televised late Thursday that Thais who love their country should dedicate themselves to carrying out the tasks they have before them to the best of their ability.
Most importantly, faithful Thais must realise that the common good is long-lasting and benefits everyone, the monarch said. The common good creates happiness for individuals and the country as a whole as wished by everyone.
The king also thanked his subjects for their concern for his health.
Accompanied by cabinet members, senior government officials, representatives from the private sector and foreign diplomats, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva on New Year’s Day signed get-well books for His Majesty the King at the Grand Palace.
The commanders of Thailand’s three armed forces -- army, navy and air force – were also present.
The Grand Palace has allowed people to sign the book expressing wishes for His Majesty’s speedy recovery from 7am to 5pm Friday. Well-wishers will each receive a royal calendar for 2010 as a souvenir. (TNA)
