Heart of the Celebration: Wellness Teams
The achievement across all 10 spa locations celebrates the incredible therapists who develop and deliver these initiatives, bringing the expertise and energy of the treatment teams to residents and local communities in innovative formats.
#WorldWellnessWeekend sees therapists embrace the ethos by sharing their skills and knowledge beyond the treatment room, offering interactive sessions and activities
therapists offering a variety of free programmes, from breathwork, mindful movement classes and massage tuition to sharing ancient wisdom and alternative healing practices
Furthermore, colleagues are also doing their bit to run these programmes in inspiring settings to create an engaging environment for residents and locals to immerse themselves in the wellness activities
In keeping with the #WellnessForAll philosophy, these activities allow guests to experience accessible, authentic and inclusive wellness as a part of daily life
