Our Inspiration

Greetings Dear Readers,

We stumbled upon the idea of presenting "Bali as the world's largest Spa & Wellness Resort" after visiting many of the wellness venues and 'offerings' all over the island  for an international travel guide.We discovered Spas, Clinics, holistic Practitioners, Gurus, Yogis and health consultants.  The list of Bali's offerings was an amazing eye opener.  All are very affordable and,     "More than just a Spa" became our new mantra.

Around the same time,  I was accidentally introduced to western medicine and pharmaceuticals which was the very expensive 'status quo' approach to getting well. For example:  The hospital nutritionist dropped by bed-side for 10 minutes to tell me to stop coffee, salt, eggs and butter?  Duh !  I was prescribed a list of tablets pushed by "Big Pharma" as usual ... so the doctors and hospital could win FREE CASH n' PRIZES.      ( like a chat cam on doctor's PC clearly labeled "Plavix")

Simply stated, those 2 experiences inspired BaliWellnessJourneys.  We now have a passion to introduce fun, beautiful and interesting wellness offerings to people like me.  People who have enjoyed the occasional massage at a hotel or day spa but, may be intimidated by a yoga lesson with all those pretzel people in the same class.  Or, those who have yet to explore other beneficial offerings and the fun stuff on our journey towards wellness.  I love the felling of treating my body to an hour or two in a hydrotherapy pool or, a deep massage by a very intuitive Balinese therapist who knows where to find the little aches and pains. New treatment modalities open and invigorate my mind and body. Fresh healthy Asian food beats he heck out of the western diet we all know so well.  (who are we to frown on a health filled glass of red wine or Margarita... Not ! )

We want you !  The beginner or seeker of wellness to add wonderful additions to your holiday on Bali island.    We don't speak in mystical tongues.  We do know where to find all the best of the best of Bali's offerings... outside the confines of your Hotel n' Spa.   "It's all about YOU" with our list journeys or personalized journeys of wellness discoveries.

We truly hope you will  join us on a delight-filled journey to personal well-being which has changed MY lifestyle. We simply want to share the possibilities  ... which is not 'end of story'.

Stay tuned.
