Zen Gurus will be present at the resorts to ensure that every client achieves their health and wellbeing goals. Their job is to help understand their clients’ reasons for wanting to embrace wellness, and then offer a fitting recommendation to service their health needs. “Quite simply we are living in a dangerous world where age longevity is increasing, health care costs are sky rocketing, stress is omnipresent, and antibiotic immunity is growing,” says founder and CEO George Morgan-Grenville. “People are beginning to wake up to the health time bomb that lies ahead. The angle we have taken at Red Savannah Zen is to provide a holistic approach that is geared towards total wellbeing covering the four key elements: Physical, Mental, Spiritual, and Emotional. This is not about vague pampering in hotel spas, it is about understanding and healing your body so it can best cope with whatever the future has in store. That said, we've reserved a small corner for the finest in pure hedonism, ideal for those who navigate life without worry.”
