Wellness Tourism
¿What is it?
Wellness tourism is a travel segment focused on journeys designed to maintain or enhance people’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being. It seeks to provide experiences that promote holistic health, encompassing physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects.
🌴Among the main characteristics of wellness tourism are:
- Activities and treatments that promote relaxation and health, such as spas, yoga, meditation, thermal baths, hot springs, hiking, temazcal, and healthy eating.
- Holistic experiences that integrate mind, body, and spirit, with alternative therapies such as Pilates, Shiatsu, and traditional massages.
- Connection with nature, which helps reduce stress and improve mental health by disconnecting from the daily routine.
- Personalized programs and specialized destinations that offer services tailored to the individual needs of travelers.
This type of tourism is growing, driven by the search for healthy lifestyles and the prevention of stress- and sedentary-related conditions. It may also include medical and therapeutic tourism, but it stands apart in that its primary focus is well-being and prevention, not just curative treatment.
In summary, wellness tourism is a transformative experience that combines rest, healthy activities, and therapies to enhance the physical, mental, and spiritual quality of life of travelers.
🫂 How does Gerson’s Massage contribute to wellness tourism in Palomino?
🧘🏽♀️ When practicing yoga or surfing, what should you keep in mind? 🏄🏼♂️
In Palomino, the practice of yoga and surfing is very popular, but it is important to keep in mind the stability generated by the core in daily practice. It should be emphasized that flexibility, breathing, and coordination are essential for a good yoga practice, as well as for any other type of sports training.
Imagine your core not just as your abs, but as a smart, three-dimensional support that embraces your torso, from the diaphragm to the pelvic floor, including your deep lumbar muscles and glutes. It is your center of power, the conductor of your stability..
Inside the abdomen, intra-abdominal pressures are managed, which are vital for metabolic activities and the protection of structures such as the spine and pelvic floor. These pressures are coordinated by the harmonious balance of muscle chains, breathing, body fluids, and posture.
When disharmony occurs, pain from overloads and injuries becomes more frequent. At Gerson’s Massage, through Integrative Osteopathy, we correct core imbalances by harmonizing natural breathing and muscle chains.

🧑🏻💻 More than 8 hours in front of the computer?
Nowadays, work is in most cases associated with the computer. Eye strain is very common, but it doesn’t end there. Neck and back pain are also frequent, and often active routines and sports activities can help improve the symptoms.
But in other cases, they do not. The reason is deeper and relates to the fact that the eyes are an integral part of the neurocoordination that manages balance and spatial awareness.
The eyes are equipped with small muscles that allow movement. Fatigue from so many hours of fixed gaze reduces their focusing ability (lazy eye), which forces the neck and back to compensate for the focus through poor posture, causing overloads and muscle pain that do not improve with massages.
At Gerson’s Massage, we assess and treat lazy eye as part of Integrative Osteopathy and Sports Therapeutic Massage. If sports are your passion, this treatment will give you a competitive edge.
