Europe’s best weight loss retreats

Achieve a fitter and healthier lifestyle with a luxury weight-loss programme from one of the world’s leading health and wellness hotels.

As I write this post we have been in Coronavirus lockdown for over 100 days. That’s 100 days of possibly snacking a little too much and doing a little less exercise than we normally would. Think about how much you would move around in a normal 100 days. You might be going to business meetings, socialising with friends and family, going to the gym, shopping, exploring… That’s a lot of movement to lose all of a sudden.

Add to that, it is an unusual situation we find ourselves in. Lockdown is not a natural state for many of us. This can cause additional mental stresses we are not used to. Additional stress can often lead to comfort eating. This period has not been easy for maintaining a healthy weight.

Many of us can’t wait to get back out into the world and travel again. We want to see the mountains, walk on the beaches and breath fresh air. What better way to restart your travel, than with a healthy, luxury weight-loss retreat?

Why do we at Health Travel believe that a weight-loss retreat is an ideal trip to take right now?
