Decide what you want: reset vs deep program

Some travelers want a full wellness-focused itinerary. Others just want a few treatments to feel fresh between sightseeing days.

Both can be great—the key is choosing the right hotel and not over-scheduling.

Where it fits best in an itinerary

Wellness works well after the cultural triangle and before the busiest travel days. A coastal finish can also be ideal if your beach region is in season.

Keep it simple and comfortable

Hydrate, sleep well, and keep a few slow mornings. Those habits do as much as any treatment.
