Guests will start their wellness journey with a series of diagnostic tests designed to understand their individual needs, which will lead to the creation of an effective, personal program. The holistic diagnostics will assess an essential array of physiological parameters, known as Chenot Lifestyle Biomarkers®, that determine the impact of lifestyle on the vitality status and aging process. Biomarkers® range from vascular age (arterial stiffness assessment), intoxication (minerals and heavy metals analysis), and skin collagen thickness (ultrasound assessment) to body composition analysis, emotional stress (HRV analysis), and endurance performance (cardiorespiratory fitness assessment).

Each Chenot Program will create a sophisticated set of personal treatments and culinary plans for each individual following the diagnostics tests.

These programs will work in synergy, stimulate the body to eliminate toxins, increase vitality, activate energy channels, and rebalance the body’s physiology.

Guests can select individual treatments or engage in shorter experiences seamlessly incorporated into their overall holiday or choose to take a fully immersive one-week program.

The iconic and transformative one-week Advanced Detox program induces a deep purification and detoxification of the body and is a pillar of Chenot’s pioneering philosophy. The tailored program includes advanced diagnostic tests with Chenot Lifestyle Biomarkers®, medical and nutritional consultations, a plant-based nutritional plan, and targeted energetic massage, bio-energetic, hydro-aromatherapy, Phyto-mud hydro-jet treatments. Following the Advanced Detox, there is the follow-up Fundamental Detox, a one-week program that can be taken within six months to maintain the effect.
