In today’s fast-moving world, it is even more
important than ever to take care of our health. Too little attention is
paid to rest and complete relaxation – many people regard their holiday
not as a chance to recuperate, rest and contemplate, but spend it even
more hectically than their usual everyday life.
The idea of special health holiday is not a new
one. Spas have flourished since Greek and Roman times – and many of our
present-day spas date back to then and continue to operate on the exact
same spots. The Europeans have been taking their annual "week’s
cure" for many years – in many countries, the national health
service contributes toward the cost of the holiday.
The term ‘spa’ today is widely used to
describe a vast variety of health-orientated holiday destinations.
Spa holidays can be taken for many reasons. You
may want to relax and wind down; pamper yourself, lose weight; get fit; or
you may have a medical problem from which you want relief. Spas do not
claim to cure illnesses permanently, but they certainly alleviate pain and
visitors return in higher spirits, fitter and more relaxed.
In our brochure we feature a wide range of spas
from the more traditional in Hungary, to spas in Malta, Spain and the UK
concentrating on beauty and relaxation in luxurious surroundings. There
are thalassotherapy centres, specialising in seawater treatments in
France, Portugal and Ireland or you will find spas with healing thermal
waters in Germany, Austria and Italy. If you particularly want to unwind
and de-stress, spas in Jordan, Switzerland, and Italy, offer a relaxing
break in beautiful surroundings away from the madding crowd. If you would
like to lose a few inches then the spas in Italy, Austria, and France
offer comprehensive diet programmes. For some sunshine, why not try
Cyprus, Malta or Portugal, and for a more exotic destination, we offer an
exclusive spa in South Africa or a healthy retreat in Bali or Lombok. And
then again, there is the opportunity to have Ayruveda treatments in
Southern India. For a short break, The UK, Switzerland, France, Italy or
Spain are all ideal for pampering weekend away.
There are spas to suit all requirements as well
as all budgets. Whichever type of spa you choose, we are confident that
your holiday will be both health-restoring and enjoyable and that you will
return home full of energy and renewed vigour.
