Located in the courtyard of the Anantara Siam Bangkok Hotel, the alfresco Aqua Bar is where one can relax and sip a classic mojito or its signature cocktail infused with tom yum herbs.
Meanwhile, wellness enthusiasts can check out a menu of intravenous infusions, available at the nearby Vivid by Verita Health -- the first IV drip bar and aesthetics hub located in a five-star hotel.
The compact 37m² bar has a vibrant reception area -- one of the walls features LED luminescent lighting which displays the following message: "Treat Your Body Like A VIP.''
The IV drip bar Vivid by Verita Health.
Compared to a pit-stop, the IV drip bar is one of Verita Health's innovative wellness services for urbanites to rest and replenish the body with nutrients. Vivid IV drips, pushes and booster shots are claimed to be scientifically-proven solutions to provide a host of health benefits.
For instance, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and anti-inflammatories make a rehydrating and re-energising cocktail for jet-lag treatment while N-acetylcysteine powers an IV drip for boosting immunity against the seasonal flu virus.
The IV drip is delivered in a comfortable setting.
The menu includes seven other IV drip options such as for improving cognitive function or enhancing the body's natural detoxification.
A medical team provides consultation prior to selecting and customising treatment. The freshly-blended IV drip is delivered by a registered nurse, albeit in a less clinical setting for a pleasurable Vivid experience.
The IV drip session takes 30 to 45 minutes while IV pushes for people on-the-go requires only 10 to 20 minutes.
The Executive Push, for instance, addresses depleted energy, accumulated stress and lack of sleep by improving performance and cognitive function through antioxidants, anti-inflammatories and other ingredients for overall well-being.
Light therapy.
The IV pushes deliver high-doses of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream while booster shots are intramuscular injections in the upper arm or thigh area.
The five quick fixes include a booster shot to help alleviate depression, lift the mood and induce the body's natural happy hormones.
Taking the IV drip session allows more time to experience the complementing oxygen and light therapies.
Boosting the body's oxygen level keeps cells healthy while increasing energy and alertness. The 90% medical-grade oxygen therapy can be combined with aromatherapy through the scent of relaxing lavender or invigorating eucalyptus.
Simulating natural outdoor light, a safe source of light is delivered to your eyes during photoluminescence therapy, which aims to help manage circadian, mood, and sleep disorders, as well as jetlag.
