Wellness & Travel

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]There’s a continuous build-up of buzz around wellness retreats over the past few years: after all, most head out on vacation with the primary aim of escaping from the frenzy of modern living. Wellness however is not just about an escape or a one-size-fits all model – people have different needs, backgrounds, and concerns.

Set up by two best friends who were studying Chinese medicine in London, Escapada aims to combine the fun of an international holiday with their unique brand of holistic, customised wellness.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Even if you don’t know the first thing about modern wellness, Escapada does a fantastic job of simplifying things for their guests. Trips start with a thorough consultation with guests, after which the entire Escapada team – from a wide range of different medicinal disciplines – will come together to tailor-make a trip that’s beneficial for you.

“We wish to invite people to look at their holidays through a different lens, and start a conversation that matters,” says Escapada co-founder Maeve O’Sullivan. “We may know what is good for us, but struggle with the daily application of a healthy lifestyle.”

“Health is not just the absence of disease, but a feeling of wholeness, balance and resilience.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Nearby, guests can find quaint villages and quiet beaches.

Escapada also operates two other retreats: one set in the verdant hills of Kerry, Ireland, and another in a dream-like manor located in the lush countryside of Lauenburg, Germany. The two locations were chosen to pay homage to Maeve and Emilia’s home countries – a testament to their love of travel, and their desire to bring their concept of wellness close to home.
