Recovery Retreats – spa days and breaks for anyone with, or recovering from, cancer, have been an intrinsic part of Spabreaks.com since they launched in 2012 and each year we are proud to say that the initiative is joined by even more superb spa destinations.
Carefully selected for their quality, when becoming a Recovery Retreat it is not simply a question of good will, but supporting a spa venue in having the right infrastructure to provide approved treatments and packages that are carefully considered for this time in one’s life.
The time and consideration a spa destination must take to offer the right service, and allow it to appear a seamless part of the rest of its spa experience is a commitment that informs their particular dedication to wellbeing, as Spabreaks.com works with them to create an offering that allows guests to enjoy a spa day like anyone else.
