Spafinder Wellness 365 publishes first Global Wellness Travel Guide

Spafinder Wellness 365 has published its first Global Wellness Travel Guide, a directory of international wellness properties designed to help travel professionals meet the demand for healthier travel options.

Mia Kyricos, chief brand officer of Spafinder Wellness, Inc., presented the Guide at the 2015 Well-Being Travel Symposium in Toronto yesterday.

“We are excited to debut the inaugural Global Wellness Travel Guide, which focuses on hundreds of curated destination spas, five-star resorts and hotels, yoga and fitness retreats and stay spas — and underscores our commitment to travel that leaves people feeling healthier when they checked out, than when they checked in,” said Kyricos.

The Guide offers resources to assist agents in booking wellness travel, and showcases profiles of featured properties, including travel offerings across 17 categories, from culinary and nutrition programs to adventure activities. A digital version is available at

www.spafinder.com/wtg

Featuring snapshots of international wellness properties, along with a “wellness spotlight” section and icons that represent the wellness offerings found at each location, the guide is organised by region. It also includes spa and wellness etiquette tips, wellness travel trends, a spa and wellness glossary, and a feature on the winners of the Spafinder Wellness 365 Wellness Travel Awards.

Kyricos said that travel agents should look for wellness travel opportunities in diverse industry segments such as cruise ships, airport spas, wellness-oriented family travel and hotels without spas.

“Wellness travel also applies to business clients who want to maintain their healthful lifestyle not just at home, but while they travel,” said Kyricos. “We anticipate that the demand for wellness offerings by elite travellers would be even more pronounced.”
