Restoring body and mind: the Wellness Tourism




Trapped in monotonous but very hurried processes, the contemporary man has lost his self-awareness and the awareness of a correct management of his own energies. Anxiety, emotional stress, physical tiredness and psychosomatic problems are symptoms of a wide malaise, deep-rooted in modern society, that involves an individual’s quality of life. The search of a correct way of management and planning of normal daily activities, from study to work, from family to social relations, underlines the need of a healthy and regular lifestyle. Most times, nevertheless, it is difficult, or even impossible, combine correct habits with the present ruling frenzied rhythms of life.
Wellness, and the necessary search of it, far from being a mere fashion, a temporary trend, become a solution for the modern man’s disease, frenzied life. Even though the sentence “mens sana in corpore sano” does not belong to a slogan of advertisement of a beauty centre but to Juvenal, to underline that the close connection between physical and mental wellness is fundamental for man since ancient times.
In the present panorama, the supply of wellness industry involves any commercial sector, from the alimentary one, to that of services, from the pharmaceutical one to that of travels and of amusement. As an evidence of this, the dizzy increase of consumptions related to the wellness sector in a substantially still and stagnant economy. The beauty supply has been, in fact, in the last few years, the sheet anchor of the sector of tourism, which also was crossing a moment of manifest difficulty.
Wellness Tourism, a typology of tjourney which was not provided for until few years ago, becomes today a hinge of tourist supply. And it proposes a wide range of choice for an ideal Wellness Holiday. Facilities, destinations and solutions of wellness holidays thought to offer an added value to the user. A traveller tired out by the city routine who has as a main desire the evasion from daily reality and the regaining possession of that only luxury which has no price nor time: the time to feel at the centre of the world. Leaving. Discovering charming towns, wonderful lands, places to relax body and mind.
Marvellous holidays. Time for oneself and care of one’s own body. Immersed, maybe, in unique and characteristic atmospheres which only few places can give. This is the luxury that more and more travellers are in search of; they try to combine to the pleasure of the five senses, a sixth one, the psychological one. Affording a luxury which doest not communicate a social status but can increase one’s own personal pleasure. A holiday to enjoy places and landscapes but also dedicated to the search of wellness. A mixing between spirit and body to forget frenzied rhythms and recover from the labours of daily life.
Fortifying oneself by hoarding those natural medicaments, such as sea, crystal-clear waters and sun. Combining a holiday with a stay dedicated to wellness and relaxation. And why not, keeping on recovering in exclusive and elegant ambiences, like the spas and the wellness centres more and more hotels are endowed with. Exclusive hotels with wellness centres and beauty farms inside them, able to provide treatments specific for any kind of need. The modern wellness centres of hotels help us keep stress, labour and tiredness far from us. A relaxing holiday, or even only a weekend dedicated to wellness, to regain possession of the energies necessary to confront challenges on one’s own way. The right moment to dedicate time to that massage desired for a long time throughout the year, to a stirring hammam, and to a specific treatment for the beauty and the wellness of face and body. Gommage, purifying treatments, draining showers, hammams to be renewed and find one’s own vital energy again.

Our proposal

Wellness holiday



Merano (German: Meran) is famous for being the place where the famous "grape cure" was invented, in the XIX century. This cure is a still considered a very good remedy to purify the whole body. This autumn fruit, beyond being consumed, is also used in many wellness treatments in all its parts and by-products: grapes, seeds, oil…and also wine! Beyond being a gourmet product and preserving the heart health, wine is also a very effective ingredient for many wellness treatments, thanks to its antiviral and antibacterial effects. The antioxidants contained in grapes (fat acids, vitamin E, zinc and selenium) and in its by-products (cold-pressed juice, grapeseed oil, and so on) contrast the ski ageing process very well.
with no senses of guilt
Many wellness treatments to be experimented during a wellness holiday in South Tyrol are based on chocolate: chocolate baths, chocolate massages, chocolate- based creams to fight cellulite and to regenerate your skin against wrinkles. Chocolate-based creams are also effective to cure sun erythemas and body stretchmarks, because cocoa butter has very good regenerating and moisturizing virtues. The good effects of (dark) chocolate don´t end here: its consumption blocks the platelets production in blood, which cause the formation of emboluses in blood. Dark chocolate also favours blood vases elasticity, beyond skin elasticity. Other good news regarding dark chocolate is that inhibits dental caries, as it´s rich in anti-bacterial elements which contrast the formation of acid substances in your mouth.

Wellness Spa Holidays in Estonia







Estonia has been a popular spa and wellness holiday destination since 1820 when the therapeutic values of mud from different Estonian Spa regions were discovered.
Seaside resorts and inland spas offer a wide range of relaxation, recreational and medical procedures such as mud wraps, chocolate massages and salt treatments.
The most popular Spa and wellness resorts are located in Parnu, Haapsalu, Kuressaare, Narva-Joesuu, Tallinn and Varska (a town known for its mineral rich water).
All offer accommodation, catering, health care procedures, saunas, training, various water activities and, naturally, luxury spa treatments. Dentists, dermatologists and rehabilitation specialists are employed at many of the spas.
Spa and wellness resorts are a fun way to make the most of your holiday in Estonia: they treat not only the body but also the soul and can be easily combined with city-breaks, active holidays, beach holidays and winter sports.
There is nothing quite as relaxing as taking a trip to the countryside, on foot, by bike or on skis, and having a hot sauna and full body massage followed by a gourmet dinner.
You can imagine – many couples fly over to Estonia for a romantic break in a luxury spa. Try it yourself.
Taking a spa break is also fun for families with children: aqua parks or swimming pools are present in most spas and some have playgrounds and child daycare facilities too. There are special fun procedures available for kids: special pearl bubble baths, fun massages, more adventurous salt and cold chambers and more. Ask when you book.
