Take a Dose of Healthy Tourism 

Thailand
has become the fountainhead of the spa business in Southeast Asia.
Most of the countrys major hotels
have a spa, where you can opt for everything from facial treatments
to holistic treatments, based on traditional Asian methods of healing,
which strike a balance between the physical and spiritual. Many
of these spas are opulently appointed with art and antiques to help
rejuvenate all of your senses.
Whats more, plenty of people come to Thailand
to get their teeth done (yes, theres even a dental spa in
Bangkok, too) because, for the
fraction of the price in the West, they can enjoy quality dentistry
and then use the savings to bankroll the rest of their vacation.
As obesity, stress and a lack of physical exercise claim more and
more lives each year, good health has become a matter of life and
death. No wonder so many tourists are choosing health-conscious
holidays. These might entail a week-long fasting and colonics program
on a tropical island; or working in some spa treatments after doses
of sightseeing; or making sure your hotel has a decent gym and pool
to keep yourself in good shape.
These
days, holidays are not just exercises in gluttony and sloth. (Read
