Mental, Physical and Emotional Transformation

If you are coming to Phuket Cleanse for any of these reasons, we suggest you set your mind up for transformation. For maximum results, we highly recommend reading the book Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself by Dr. Joe Dipenza.

If you want to hear just how much positive impact his work has had, feel free to check out these testimonials.

Another popular method to instigate breakthrough is Rebirthing.

Rebirthing breathwork is one of our favorite modalities at Phuket Cleanse. This therapy technique is based on a specific breathing pattern – the ‘conscious connected breath’. Via this breath, a shift in consciousness takes place which allows an energy flow throughout the body. Letting go of past traumas/Traumas and unwanted life patterns that are held in the body as stuck energy is possible allowing freedom, clarity, and power in your life.  Awareness, “ah-ha” moments, and connection with your core self can also be experienced. Comments after a rebirthing session have been, “I feel light and spacious.” “I experienced my inner power.” “I realize what self-love now means.” “I’ve finally released what has been holding me back.”

Every rebirthing session is different and each person has an experience that seems to support what is needed in their life at the time. The session is usually 2.5 hours, the actual breathwork is about an hour with the remainder of the time in an inquiry + coaching conversation. Contact Rita with any questions or for more information: rita@phuketcleanse.com

The video, below, shows a brief demonstration, though nothing can substitute the experience of a one-on-one session.

So many people come to Phuket Cleanse to improve energy levels. To improve your energy levels, just make sure bases are covered by taking a good professional brand of multivitamin, such as Paradise Herbs. This will ensure you have adequate B vitamins, minerals, and magnesium.

We suggest that you take magnesium daily to replenish this deep deficiency most people have. Magnesium is involved in making energy and improving sleep. 

Or you may want to use a superfood green powder such as these green drinks from Body Nutrition.

We recommend people take magnesium and vitamin C to keep you regular, help you detox, sleep, and improve recovery.

If you want to bring a product to improve your energy levels buy some C60. This product not only seems to improve energy levels but also helps with sleep and workouts. Please have a listen. 

 

If you are currently struggling with energy levels, you have two options, you may want to get a vitamin B shot or an IV Meyer’s cocktail prior to arrival to improve your energy levels.

However, we have a local clinic called Lyfe Clinic that provides such services.

Hello, welcome to the Phuket Cleanse orientation page. We are so honored that you will be joining us. We are preparing every day for your arrival so you don’t have to. 

There is nothing you are compelled to do to prepare. Many of our guests (who we call Cleansers) just show up with little to no preparation. However, for best results and for your own comfort and safety, you may want to look through the sections of this page that pertain to you and read up just a bit to see if you feel the need to pack an extra item or two to support your needs.

Who am I?

I am Melanie Procter. Co-Founder and Imagineer of Phuket Cleanse. Your journey with us is the most important thing in my life alongside my beloved family and staff. I think of your success and healing all day long from the time I open my eyes until I go to bed at night. 

It will thus be my great honor if you WhatsApp me with any questions at +17272198023. I don’t use email often and usually answer via voice message. Please feel free to pester me.

Here’s to your health!

Love, 

Mel

There are many ways to approach your meals at Phuket Cleanse depending on what you want to achieve or experience.

Most people are looking to achieve a golden combination of detoxification, rejuvenation and muscle toning, with improved energy levels. We really prefer to personalize your diet to your specific needs and schedule.

To achieve such metabolic flexibility we recommend a combined program in which you have cleansing days, feeding/building days, plus intermittent fasting. 

To help you, we have designed our buffet and meal system as follows.

Breakfast – Monday through Friday, we have a full vegetarian breakfast buffet designed to be educational so that you can get recipe ideas from the recipes we put on the buffet for you. We have gluten-free, low carb paleo breads, breakfast parfaits, omelet bar, and juices and soups for detoxing. 

Monday – seafood lunch, fresh and light Indian dinner

Tuesday – light lunch, seafood dinner

Wednesday – seafood lunch, fresh and light Italian dinner

Thursday – light Thai lunch, fresh Mexican seafood dinner

Friday – seafood lunch, soup and salad bar dinner

We know many people are vegetarian/vegan nowadays, so we have vegan and vegetarian protein options instead of seafood. We also know many guests come for muscle building so we have protein shakes to make sure you are getting appropriate macronutrients for muscle toning/gain. 

Scientific studies continue to show benefits of doing weekly cleanses, so we give our guests a chance to join together in doing a group cleanse on weekends.

We turn our weekend buffets into cleansing buffets with cleansing juices, soups and superfood supplements. Our brand of cleansing on weekends is called juice feasting as opposed to juice fasting. It is simply a liquid diet with a huge array of soups and juices to choose from. We also have herbal teas and herbal broths for people who want to do a deeper cleanse called a teatox. A teatox simulates a water fast but is delicious in its abundance of herbal broths. 

The juice feasting is based on abundance so you can still stay active while cleansing. The teatox gives you a chance to learn how to do a deeper cleanse with broths and herbal teas. 

This little trailer shows you a bit of about what a juice feast experience is like. 

We find the weekend cleanse provides a supportive environment for cleansing and teaches you a life skill so you can incorporate weekly cleanses into your regular lifestyle. 

Replenishing Nutritional Deficiencies

Our weekend juice feast is not about deprivation. It is about the replenishment of nutritional deficiencies. We focus on supplying juices and soups of the highest quality nutrition so that you are replenishing key nutrients but the body is not burdened with the work of digestion. 

People who do the juice feast have way more energy than the eaters. We discourage anyone from breaking the fast on the weekends, as you will miss the most healing part of the Phuket Cleanse experience.

The videos, below, show more about how we put together the weekend liquid feasts, with recipes you can try for yourself too.

We have also created a new blend of superfood powder, using the incredible list of ingredients, below, to replenish nutritional deficiencies and support your autophagy (repair and rejuvenation) on these weekends.

Meet, Drink and Be Merry

At Phuket Cleanse, we provide you all the water you can drink. This magical liquid is filtered through a high-end reverse osmosis filtration system. We don’t use plastic water bottles. We provide glass bottles for around the villa and BPA free bottles to take away. 

However, we recommend everyone to get an H2 water bottle. These bottles have cartridges in them that add more hydrogen to your water, making the water more hydrating.

If you don’t want to carry around a water bottle, you could always buy these H2 water tablets. These tablets are an excellent product, although the water bottle is more cost-efficient.  

Our Ozonated Water

We also provide ozonated water elixirs in our dining room. It stays on tap all day. Ozonated water helps rid your system of bad bacteria and parasites. So, please drink up the ozone water elixir all day long. 

Electrolytes

We are hydration freaks and it important for you to all have electrolytes if you are going to be sweating a lot. The pharmacies in Thailand do sell electrolytes but a more pure version is available online if you would like to order some before you arrive.

Three brands we recommend – as they are clean – are Synerplex, Nuun. and LES Labs.

Adding oxygen drops to your water will also improve your hydration. Life Enthusiast is one of many great brands that you can find easily at health food stores. 

How do you know if you have gut issues?

The symptoms can be bloating, food sensitivities, and feeling tired and weak.

The more you know about your personal food sensitivities the better we can tailor a diet for you. 

If you are in a position to get some gut health tests prior to arrival, this will really help us serve you better.

We recommend you see a functional medicine doctor/ integrative medicine doctor, or naturopath. Explain to her or him you would like to do some gut health testing such as: an allergy test, an Indican test, or comprehensive stool test. The results of these tests will enable your doctor to put you onto a path of gut healing. It will also help us to know how to cook for you.

If you are not able to do any tests, you may find this quiz useful.

Additionally, when you arrive at Phuket Cleanse, our local lab is able to provide you a basic Indican test to help you determine if you have a bacterial overgrowth or infection in the gut. 

If you would like to do any such testing at Phuket Cleanse, you can contact our local hotshot clinical nutritionist Craig Burton. You can tell him what is going on and he can make some recommendations for you.

If you would like to set that up or have any questions regarding blood tests, please email Craig at craig@craigburtonconsulting.com.

If you have no information to provide us on the status of your digestive system, we would simply put you on what is called a Low Fodmap Diet. I suggest you get started with that as early as possible, as it will give you relief and get you used to the type of diet you will do with us as a gut healing program. 

We will help you to continue this diet at Phuket Cleanse, and will recommend you reduce the times you eat in the day to give your gut a break and allow it to heal. 

We can accomplish this in several ways.

1. Low Fodmap juice/soup cleanse
2. Partial Low Fodmap juice/soup cleanse (meaning liquid diet most of the day with one Low Fodmap meal)
3. Intermittent fasting with Low Fodmap meals

In terms of supplementation for healing your gut, we recommend you use a gut repair product such as this one. This product will begin to heal and soothe the gut lining.

We suggest a collagen loading program to rebuild the gut lining. Please watch this video to learn about the benefits of collagen loading. 

Products that we advocate, by the same Josh Axe, include these multi-collagen capsules and this bone broth protein.

If you are a vegetarian or vegan, here is a viable plant-based collagen product by Sunwarrior. 

Thailand does not have many high-quality bone broth or collagen products. It is better to prepare in advance if you feel you need supplementation on this front. 

The type of collagen product you choose is important. The video, below, explains why to choose multi-type collagen.

 

“What can I do before I arrive to get better results?”

 

This is a common question, and we really want you to arrive with a sense of momentum so you can maximize your time with us.

Three key objectives shared by a majority of our guests include experiencing more energy, greater sleep, and an increase in positivity.

Here is a list of steps you can take so that, upon arrival, you can hit the ground running.

If weight loss is your goal …

 

Start to reduce your carbohydrates, favor a high-fat, low-carb, ketogenic diet (here is a good Keto meal plan with more info the diet). When you go on a ketogenic diet, you actually may feel a bit worse before you get better, because the body has to transition from burning carbohydrates as its primary fuel to fat as its primary fuel, so the first week or two on a ketogenic diet you’re very likely to get the keto-flu and other side effects. 

It would be great if you can get that out of the way!

If energy, rejuvenation and fitness are your goals …

A miracle wonder supplement taking the world by storm right now is C60. We thoroughly recommend you begin taking this as soon as possible, if possible. There are a myriad of benefits, which include better vision along with improved strength and motivation. Please watch the video below for some more information.

If you’d like to do your research on C60, check out the multitude of videos on YouTube. We normally don’t push so hard for people to get on a product, but this one will make such a difference to your energy levels, healing, and rejuvenation. There has never been anything like it. You can look for C60 manufacturers in your area, but if you cannot find them, we suggest ordering from either of the two companies who made this podcast:

Watch the podcast and you can contact both companies, who are great, though we love Life Enthusiast because you can call them directly yourself and talk to the owner, Martin Patyla. He is always online and takes phone calls. He is a very supportive scientist and health coach, and one of the few companies in the world you can actually call up and speak to someone to get excellent support.

Taking C60 with hydrogen water will make it way more potent and effective. You can buy a hydrogen water bottle from Life Enthusiast or from Amazon.

Becoming keto-adapted, getting on the C60 and starting to drink hydrogen water before you arrive, means that by the time you get to Phuket Cleanse you’re already going to be flying high and in a place to work on your fitness, build muscle, recover and heal — all the things you’re coming for. 

Nobody has to do any of that, but if you do, you’re gonna get the best results out of your stay with us.

If you are reading this and it’s too late to acquire these products before you come, you can get on this program when you get home.

Once again, if you have any questions, please do WhatsApp me at +17272198023.

When going to tropical countries in SE Asia, you will be exposed to different bacteria.

In our kitchen, we disinfect food with ozone. We also ask you not to brush your teeth with the water in the room, but with the water bottles provided.

The water we provide guests goes through a reverse-osmosis filtration system, so it is clean water. In addition, we provide ozone machines in communal places so that you can regularly drink the ozonated water. 

You simply pop your water bottle under the machine and let it ozonate for 10 minutes.

The staff will teach you to do this. The benefit of drinking ozonated water is that ozone will kill off parasites, viruses or bad bacteria in your gut. You can consider this a GI detox. 

Everyone has some bacteria in their gut, or viruses that they are carrying around. Drinking ozonated water on a regular basis helps to kill off some of these unwanted bugs.

It will also kill off anything you may pick up along the way while in this tropical country.

We also recommend that you take vitamin C to improve your immunity. Your immune system will take a hit due to the long-haul flights many of you take. There is often also a lot of stress in preparing for an international trip. Taking vitamin C regularly prior to departure and while here will help you to maintain a healthy immune system. We recommend you take vitamin C throughout the day as Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin and you pee it out when you take high doses all in one shot.

So if you are purchasing 1000mg tablets, consider breaking them in half and taking it 4 times a day. Vitamin C also keeps you regular. On the topic of being regular, we also recommend you take Magnesium. This will also help your body to create energy and help you recover and sleep more deeply at night. Magnesium is best taken in the evening to improve your sleep quality.

The final recommendation is for you to take probiotics that fend off bad bacteria. The probiotic of choice for travelers in Southeast Asian countries is Saccharomyces Boulardii. This is something travelers should keep on hand all the time, so this will be a good practice for you to get started on. You can purchase Saccharomyces Boulardii, or check out your own probiotics you may already have on hand and see if Saccharomyces Boulardii is one of the strains already in your current blend.

The good news is that all pharmacies in Thailand sell all of these products, so if you don’t have time to buy them before you come out,  you can head out to the local pharmacies and pick them up.

Finally, if you feel like you may have anything coming on, we suggest you up your dosage of all these products, and also take charcoal, which is also sold in all pharmacies in Thailand. Charcoal absorbs bad bacteria in the gut and gives many travelers immediate relief.

Phuket Cleanse, to us, is not just an isolated healthy holiday. It is also a health education institute. So though some of these things may seem a little bit of trouble at first, we believe we are getting you in the habit of the best practices in international travel. You will walk away with this lifelong skill, and we are very happy about that.

Mosquitoes

Many guests find that mosquitoes love them a little too much. Others are less affected. Either way, it is best to prepare. 

At Phuket Cleanse, we spray for mosquitoes weekly. Nets for the room are available from the concierge. We also provide electric mosquito swatters and will do everything we can do to prevent you from being bothered. 

Mosquito repellents are available in Thailand, although they are not the cleanest and most potent on the market. Plant-based lemon eucalyptus bug spray is currently on-trend, and with good reason. It is all non-toxic super potent. There are multiple brands to choose from that you may want to arm yourself with before setting off. Brands such as Repel and Cutter have been highly rated in online reviews.

Certain times of day, such ask dusk, are when the mosquitos bite more. Longer sleeve clothes such as this one are useful for these periods. 

There are other products that assist in repelling mosquitos, such as bracelets, soap,  clothes and a spray to use on your shoes, bags and gear. If you are one who has issues with mosquitos, you may want to invest in these products.

If you are leaving soon, don’t worry about it, if you are going to be at PC for a while, you could order a small package and get it shipped, (large shipments may not make it through customs). Here are our details:

49/105 Moo 1 Soi Nanachat, Amphur Muang, Tambon Rawai, Phuket, Thailand 83130.

Phone or WhatsApp us at +66-8-2424-4976.

 

Clean, vegan protein powder is provided at Phuket Cleanse and protein shakes are available any time upon request. We mix ourselves using pea/hemp/brown rice protein and BCAAs. However, as it is made in Thailand, we don’t feel it is the highest quality available for specific muscle gain. Custom laws in Thailand don’t allow us to import our own protein powder, so we encourage anyone with particular powdered protein preferences to bring their own, plus a shaker to have on hand. You will be fine taking our protein powder, but we feel the above is worth mentioning in order for you to maximize results.

Protein Recommendations

You may have your own protein powder you love. We recommend you get the cleanest product you can find. If taking whey, we recommend grass-fed, and cold processed, like this product. 

However, these brands also have high-quality protein powders – 1st Phorm, Metagenics, Subito, Victory Labs, Antler Farms and XP Labs.

People with gut health issues often can tolerate a hydrolyzed whey in which lactose is removed such as these from True Nutrition and Subito. The company Body Ecology has this powder that can assist you in digesting dairy if needed.

Vegan Proteins

If you are getting vegan protein, we just recommend you get products that have at least 2.5 grams of leucine per serving. You may even need to double your vegan protein to get enough leucine for muscle growth.

For vegans and people with dairy issues, we recommend Sun Warrior, Veggie elite, 1st Phorm, Prana On, Metagenics and Vega.

For those wanting to order US products that don’t ship overseas, the mail forwarding service www.USA2me.com is very useful. 

Gut Issues

If you have gut issues, you are probably sensitive to all protein powders. There is a protein powder made in Thailand out of coconut which you will probably be able to tolerate. The product is called CocoFit and our concierge will stock this or direct you to a store nearby for purchase.
