Wellness Tourism as an active Method for individual
Health Promotion. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, March 2009, Pages: 80
Wellness Tourism became an important part in today’s
society. Preventive actions and privately paid health
promotions are gaining more importance as people are
creating more self-awareness towards their health
status. Primarily, this book gives the reader an
insight on health, health promotion and wellness.
Further, it focuses on health prevention and gives a
short overview of what complimentary medicine means.
Moreover, the author Lucia Steppeler gives an
introduction to the spa industry with a special focus
on the Steirische Thermenland. In order to
investigate which role spas belonging to the
Steirische Thermenland are playing, an empirical
study has been conducted. The outcome of this study
presents a tendency of why Styrians visit a spa, how
they experience it, what expectations people have,
what treatments they are interested in and whether
they consciously chose a spa visit to support their
health status.
