Her acclaimed residency, Balance & Beyond, will return from 25 November to 3 December 2025 at the resort's award-winning Coqoon Spa.
Dr. Lim's transformative approach blends millennia-old TCM techniques with modern science and spiritual practice. Guests can expect a curated experience that integrates:

Her integrative practice bridges Eastern wisdom and Western understanding, encouraging deep transformation from within.
