May 19, 2011: We look forward to working closely with EuroSpaClub International to foster the growth and development of inbound and outbound health and wellness services in these promising regions,” said Renée-Marie Stephano, President of the Medical Tourism Association™and Editor-in-Chief of Medical Tourism Magazine, Health Tourism Magazine and Healthcare Development Magazine. “Healthcare Prevention and Wellness Programs are essential to effectuate the continuum of care for traveling patients. These services complement the surgical procedures being sought by medical tourism patients and in many cases can provide people with the life style changing tools they need to produce long term positive outcomes for their medical procedures and their lives in general,” she added.

Education is a critical component of the relationship between these two organizations.  Some of the larger markets for such programs are found in the United States and Western Europe where the concept of wellness is taking a stronger foothold.  ”We are very excited about partnering with MTA and to continue to educate US consumers and partners on the value of Wellness Tourism programs and proven preventative protocols.  The American public is getting more anxious about the healthcare choices and we are firmly committed to developing new, flexible, cost effective and culturally rewarding wellness experiences for many consumer seeking options,” added Alex Romanovich, CMO and co-Founder of EuroSpaClub International.

Czech Republic is one of the leading Wellness Tourism destinations in Europe and is a home to many beautiful Spa Vacation destinations, such as Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad), Marianske Lazne (Marienbad), Frantiskovy Lazne, and many others.

Czech Republic began its expansion of the Spas in the 18^th Century and quickly became the leading European destination for therapeutic medical establishments based on natural curative resources available locally.

Unlike typical daily spa sessions, European Spa vacations offer extended programs, fully supervised by a licensed physician and well-trained staff. Any European spa connoisseur can not only enjoy a fully tailored program of curative and preventative treatments, well matched to diagnosed conditions, but also choose from an extensive list of available procedures focusing on anything from relaxation and cleansing to balneotherapy (also known as hydrotherapy or water related treatments) and comprehensive wellness programs.

“We are very interested in bringing new information to the American consumer via additional options, less known to the US based spa goers willing or interested in traveling to beautiful European destinations, such as Czech Republic,” stated Michelle Joni Lapidos, Social Media Editor for Spa Week Media Group. “We have an opportunity to help our readers discover new destinations, treatments and experiences.”

Smoking – The history of smoking dates back to as early as 5000 BC in shamanistic rituals. With the arrivals of the Europeans in the 16th century, the consumption, cultivation, and trading of tobacco quickly spread. With the modernization of farm equipment and manufacturing bore the cigarette following reconstruction in the United States. This method of consumption quickly expanded the scope of consumption, which grew until the scientific controversies of the 1960s, and condemnation in the 1980s. Today medical studies have proven that smoking tobacco is among the leading causes of many diseases such as lung cancer, heart attacks, COPD, erectile dysfunction and can also lead to birth defects. The inherent health hazards of smoking have caused many countries to institute high taxes on tobacco products and anti-smoking campaigns are launched every year in an attempt to curb tobacco smoking.

Obesity – Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases, particularly heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, certain types of cancer, and osteoarthritis.^[2] Obesity is most commonly caused by a combination of excessive food energy intake, lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders, medications or psychiatric illness. Evidence to support the view that some obese people eat little yet gain weight due to a slow metabolism is limited. From the early 1970s to the late 1990s the average calories available per person per day (the amount of food bought) increased in all parts of the world except Eastern Europe. The United States had the highest availability with 3,654 calories per person in 1996.^[68] This increased further in 2003 to 3,754.^[68] During the late 1990s Europeans had 3,394 calories per person, in the developing areas of Asia there were 2,648 calories per person, and in sub-Saharan Africa people had 2,176 calories per person.^[68][69] Total calorie consumption has been found to be related to obesity.^[70]

I understood that the Spa was all about drinking one of the 4 waters, I hadn’t realized that in the afternoon, only 1 was available (the others need to be consumed before breakfast). The spa is very picturesque. All of the spas are related to each other and you will only find a particular service at a particular spa (i.e. massage is only done at 1 of the several spa locations). The reception staff is very helpful at directing you through the locations and services
