If you want to improve a specific health condition on your trip, check out our page on all indications and treatments of illnesses. There you can find out which type of health programme is suitable as a treatment for which illness, how the programmes are run and where they take place.
Finally, if you are looking for a specific healing therapy, you can start your search with our encyclopaedia of remedies treated in our hotels. For example, if you have always wanted to take a mud bath, you can type this into the search bar and you will get results on how and where to get one!
How long should my healing holiday be?
If you already have an idea of the trip you'd like to do, then you just have to think about how long it makes sense to go for.
When simply maintaining or boosting general health, there is no fixed recommended duration. A typical healthy short break can be anything from 2 – 4 nights whereas longer healing getaways can last at least 3-4 weeks, so it’s up to you!
When treating specific health issues, such as psoriasis or arthritis, the spa doctors tend to recommend a specific length of time (usually at least 2 weeks) to see any long-lasting results. This will vary depending on the severity of the illness and the type of therapy. In these cases, we really recommend following the advised length of stay for positive results.
