Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Wellness Holidays
What is a Wellness Tour / Wellness Holiday / Wellness Vacation / Health Holiday?
A Wellness holiday is a travel undertaken with the primary objective of improving one's health. It is a
much-needed break you take, for health and well-being as top priority. Nestled in the lap of nature, it
usually includes stay in a Wellness or Health Retreat, away from hustle bustle of city. A wellness
vacation will usually involve Yoga, Ayurveda, Spa, Naturopathy or a combination of all these and
more to achieve the maximum health benefits.
A health holiday can be undertaken to prevent illnesses or can also be a treatment focused holiday
(diabetes, weight loss, hypertension, chronic back pain, faster recovery post cancer treatment etc.).
Why take a Wellness Holiday?
Due to our lifestyle and eating habits, we have started experiencing an early onset of diseases like
hypertension, diabetes, back problems etc. at a very young age. However, the largely practiced
conventional treatments suppress the symptoms but do not treat the problem. The only solution
therefore, is to go for Alternative Healing Options like Ayurveda, Yoga, and Naturopathy etc.
Wellness resorts offer a well-crafted, personalized experience which focuses on you getting back to
the pink of your physical and mental health. Whether your objective is health maintenance by Yoga
or Detox or anti-ageing or you are looking for disease specific treatment customized for you, a
wellness holiday heals you from within and can benefit you in more ways than you can think of.
Sometimes Wellness Holidays are just a way to unwind and get spend some quality time with
yourself.
What is a Wellness Retreat / Wellness Resort / What does a Wellness Retreat look like?
A resort with picturesque locations, diverse landscapes, itinerary full of activities and down time for
reflection coupled with pranic food and service beyond excellence-this is what a Wellness Retreat is.
It usually has a Wellness Physician for consultation, Wellness Centre, Yoga hall, Swimming pool,
trained therapists and many recreational activities. Please see this video of one of the Wellness
