Wellness tourism becomes even more important as it rejuvenates the body, mind and soul by detoxification provided by various healthcare therapies. India is perceived as one of the true spiritual homes of the modern wellness movement globally with its ancient practices of ayurveda, yoga, meditation, acupuncture, naturopathy, panchakarma and holistic health are among the experiences sought by wellness travellers in India.

Wellness Tourism has been an essential requirement of all those people who want to take a break from their busy lives and work schedule and relax at a place where they can feel more close to nature and improve their health and well being.

Wellness Tourism is not limited to these therapies only, its a sense of belongingness to an environment that is austere, free from stress, encourages positivity in attitude, focuses on balanced nutrition, restores balance and homeostasis of the body, and holistically heals the body. 

Ayurveda or ayurvedic medicine is a system of traditional medicine native to the Indian subcontinent and a form of alternative medicine. Ayurveda stands for “Science of life or age” and is the oldest form of complete medical system in the world and dates back to 5000 B.C. It’s roots lie in the ancient Indian Civilization and the Hindu Philosophy, and has been an important influence on the development of almost all other Easten Medical systems.

Over the years, India has grown to become a top-notch destination for medical value travel because it scores high over a range of factors that determines the overall quality of care.  The high-end healthcare system in India is as good as the best in the world.

Spirituality is entrenched into the very core of Indian culture. The country is the destination of choice for many who embark on a journey of spiritual growth and enlightenment. The Beatles put India on the world map when they ventured to Rishikesh to learn Transcendental Meditation at Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s ashram back in 1968.  It involves people traveling to places to find the meaning of life and attain inner peace through self-realisation and personal transformation; they may or may not follow a particular religion or faith.
