In the inclination to be a globetrotter and explore the world, we often forget to explore our inner selves. That is possibly the reason why it is peculiar to hear the two words “wellness” and “travelling” together. However, the changing times and the craving for a deeper realisation of one’s inner self has brought people to a platform where wellness travelling has become prominently well-recognised. The Wellness Tourism Association defines wellness travel as “travel that allows the traveller to maintain, enhance or kick-start a healthy lifestyle, and support or increase one’s sense of wellbeing.”

Whether the intention behind wellness travelling is to maintain a routine of fitness and healthy living away from the mundaneness of the regular life or to hunt for proactive betterment of health and getting rid of ailments, the visitors for these wellness vacations are increasing by the day and the health retreats are not complaining.
