Everyone has their own idea of what constitutes health and wellness, and that’s perfectly acceptable. BodyHoliday is an all-inclusive resort in St. Lucia that places an emphasis on rest and rejuvenation, and where visitors are encouraged to take charge of their own health and wellness.

The blissful property’s signature wellness method is intended to restore equilibrium through routine treatments in the world-class Wellness Center, immersive fitness classes and activities, and considerate dining experiences, among other unique experiences like a Wellness Clinic (based on functional medicine) and an Ayurvedic temple.

Choose from a variety of therapeutic options supported by a highly trained staff and tailor your vacation experience to help you achieve your goals at this unique destination. As highlighted by AFAR, this island retreat has everything you need to design your ideal wellness vacation, whether you want to relax with a therapeutic Thai Shiatsu massage, hone your tennis skills with the help of a pro, or seek advice from experts as you start down the road to a better way of life.

The Wellness Center at BodyHoliday is the resort’s focal point, where guests come to relax and enjoy the center’s world-class treatments, which have earned the spa multiple votes as the best in the Caribbean. Fifty-minute treatments are available every day and include everything from Swedish and Balinese massages to soothing body wraps and purifying scrubs.

Along with a thalassotherapy pool, the Wellness Center is home to Pavitra, the only authentic Ayurvedic temple in the Caribbean. The skilled therapists and beauticians at BodyHoliday come from all over the world, and they each have extensive training in a particular modality, such as Reiki or Bhutanese massage, so that you can rest assured knowing that you will receive the highest quality of care.

Sailing, windsurfing, waterskiing, kayaking, an ultramodern fitness center, golf, tennis, archery, fencing, and many other sports are available for those who like to keep active while on vacation.

Scuba diving at colorful reefs, trekking through the rainforest, biking along the coast, and abseiling (rope-assisted rock climbing) down a river gorge are just some of the off-site activities that BodyHoliday can arrange for the more daring travelers. Learn from Olympic athletes and certified instructors as you strengthen your body and mind through the BodyYoga program.

To achieve optimal health in a way that considers modern life’s demands, BodyHoliday’s Wellness Clinic offers a more comprehensive approach to health and wellness. The idea is grounded in functional medicine, which integrates innovative Western diagnostics with time-honored Eastern techniques, including the use of physiological and biochemical data to evaluate such factors as nutritional status, hormonal balance, stress, and cardiovascular fitness. You will receive a customized program based on your results that may include dietary recommendations, an exercise plan, recommended therapies, yoga, and meditation.

Healthy eating is an integral part of the BodyHoliday philosophy of wellness. This is especially clear at I-TAL, a Rastafarian farm-to-table restaurant that uses ingredients straight from the resort’s organic garden.

This eco-friendly dining adventure begins with a guided tour to harvest ingredients which are afterwards prepared onsite, all in the spirit of the idea that a natural diet based primarily on the vitamins and minerals available in plants can improve health and energy. After gaining knowledge of some tricks of the trade from the I-TAL chef, sit back and enjoy a healthy and delicious meal with a view of the resort and Cariblue Bay while you enjoy dishes like pigeon peas cooked over an open flame and fresh coconut ice cream made from nut milk.

Our internal and external feelings are intimately connected. BodyHoliday’s Skin Care Clinic uses only state-of-the-art, premium formulas from around the world and offers a wide range of procedures intended to restore and enhance your natural beauty and sense of well-being.

Using tiny electrical impulses to tighten facial muscles, a CACI non-surgical face lift can revitalize and film your skin. Use light therapy or a peel to bring back your skin’s radiance. Try a cold marine facial to strengthen and calm delicate, red skin while using plant extracts and a cool mint mask. It honestly sounds like you’ll be leaving paradise in the best possible physical and mental condition.
