2009 edition helps readers relieve stress with a spa makeover
LEXINGTON, KY (10/22/08) – It’s no secret people are finding it harder to make time for stress release and self care. Many are choosing to downgrade or skip their vacations entirely. But many health and wellness researchers say that’s a terrible idea – studies have shown time and again that people who take every day of their available vacation time are healthier, happier and more productive than those who don’t. Of course, this still leaves the challenge of finding the ideal destination for a truly relaxing, revitalizing getaway. Fortunately, the solution is coming to newsstands and bookstores November 1: Destination Spa Vacations magazine. This annual guide features 23 true Destination Spas – all-inclusive, health-focused havens 100 percent devoted to life enhancement and the spa lifestyle.
“Destination spas offer the most life-changing of all spa experiences,” says Liz Mazurski, spa expert and advisor to DSV. “And as a vacation, most people who’ve visited a Destination Spa once find time to visit one every year as their way to stay healthy, centered and positive.”
The travel section of the guide lays out every detail about these extraordinary retreats, making choosing a vacation destination stress-free. With more than 80 pages, it offers a comprehensive two-page description of each spa, including large color photographs, a summary of the facility, amenities and accommodations, an explanation of services and activities and 2009 rates. The highlighted services, maps and property information make it easy for even first-time spa-goers to choose the spa that’s right for them.
In the spa lifestyle section of the magazine, experts from these featured Destination Spas offer tips, tools, and ideas to help reduce stress and foster the spa lifestyle every day:
· Beauty & wellness experts bring the spa home with easy, luscious treatments such as the All-Over Honey Body Polish and Calming Breath and offer ideas for managing stress in two feature articles, “How to Detox” and “Peace of Mind & Body.”
· Fitness gurus share their most energizing workout music, discuss fitness trends such as Nordic walking and hydro-biking and share secrets for longevity and meaningful living in “Taking the Long View” and “Making the Life of Your Dreams”.
· Chefs and dietitians offer advice on stocking your kitchen with essential ingredients and tools and provide healthy, delicious recipes that anyone can prepare. “Flavor Fest” pulls Destination Spa recipes together into a complete day’s worth of menus so readers can enjoy incredible spa cuisine at home.
