Orion Healing Centre is a holistic wellness retreat on Koh Phangan in southern Thailand, located on the western coast of the island in Srithanu. Orion has been operating since the early 2000s and has grown into one of the substantial wellness destinations on the island, with detox programs, yoga, meditation, and a wide range of complementary therapies. Capacity is around fifty guests, supporting moderate-scale group programming. The setting is more accessible than off-grid properties on the eastern coast, with road access and proximity to the town facilities of Srithanu. Srithanu has emerged as the wellness village of Koh Phangan, distinct from the better-known full-moon party scene at Haad Rin or the busier Thong Sala area. Multiple wellness centers, healing practitioners, raw food restaurants, yoga studios, and complementary therapy practitioners operate in the Srithanu area, creating a small but substantial wellness ecosystem. Orion sits at the center of this ecosystem and draws on the broader scene while maintaining its own integrated programming. Programs at Orion include detox programs (juice fasting, water fasting, raw food protocols, colon hydrotherapy), yoga retreats with rotating teachers, meditation programs, women's retreats, intensive detox programs of varying lengths, breath workshops, and various complementary therapy options. The integration of detox with yoga, meditation, and broader wellness work distinguishes the property from purely yoga-focused retreats. Long-term wellness focus extends beyond single-program duration; many guests return for multiple programs over time. The retreat draws guests primarily from international wellness markets, with substantial European, Australian, North American, and Asian attendance. Pricing positions Orion in the moderate range of Asian wellness retreats, accessible relative to luxury properties while supporting professional programming and substantial included clinical and complementary therapy work.
Daily structure varies by program. Detox program guests follow fasting protocols with daily juices, supplements, colon hydrotherapy sessions as part of the protocol, and gentle yoga and meditation. Yoga and meditation retreat days follow a more typical retreat format with morning yoga, breakfast, mid-morning workshop, lunch, free time, afternoon practice, dinner, evening session. Yoga taught varies by visiting teacher across contemporary international styles. Meditation programming includes various contemporary approaches. Detox programs include daily one-on-one sessions with detox staff, group teaching, and substantial rest. The Srithanu wellness village context provides additional optional programming and practitioner access during free time. Phones are usable; the program structure encourages but does not enforce limited use.
Orion does not represent a single yoga or meditation lineage. Visiting teachers come from various contemporary international yoga traditions.

The retreat is best understood as integrative international wellness in the broader Koh Phangan wellness ecosystem rather than as carrying a specific transmission.
