Big winners in wellness tourism amid the pandemic


If you’re thinking of going on a staycation, make sure to include a pampering session too. — WILLIAMS ADAMS/Pixabay

The global wellness tourism sector is beginning to see a bit of a resurgence these days. As many borders are still closed, people spend more time exploring their own cities and neighbourhoods, and pampering sessions at spas, retreats and wellness centres have become part of the local holiday experience.

Spa owners and operators are aware of the need to strictly follow all health and safety guidelines, not just because it is a requirement but also to instil confidence in their clients.
