Types and characteristics of health tourism in Asian countries: China, Japan and Thailand.

Health tourism and medical tourism are very popular tourism modes, which can enjoy a healthier and more comfortable experience during the tourism process. But Asian countries have different types of healthy tourism, so everyone has many choices. Let's take a look at the differences between China, Japan and Thailand.

China culture health

1, China has a long history of cultural health preservation.

From Laozi's Tao Te Ching to Zhuangzi's Neipian, from Zhouyi to Lushi Chunqiu, and from Huangdi Neijing.

China cultural health preservation takes the unique concept of TCM health preservation, China tea culture and Taiji culture as the core concept, inherits the ancient connotation of China health preservation culture, and takes tea health preservation, hydrotherapy and organic Chinese medicine treatment as the main health preservation means, and finally realizes all-round health preservation and heart-nourishing, which is the unique feature of China health tourism and an effective selling point that can form international competitiveness.

2. The concept and mode of cultural health preservation.

Cultural health preservation appears on the basis of modern people's knowledge, which combines physiology and spirit to achieve a unique health preservation method to prolong life and improve quality of life. Cultural health care is based on high-quality natural environment, high-level health care items, humanized whole-course health care service and harmonious health care atmosphere, and is based on profound health care cultural connotation, integrating contemporary advanced health care technology to create a first-class concept model for health care and vacation.

3. Where is the best area for health preservation in China?

According to the report, the top ten cities in the health index are Changchun, Qinhuangdao, Huizhou, Haikou, Dalian, Qingdao, Guilin, Kunming, Beihai and Chengdu. According to the statistical list, 50% cities in the north and 50% cities in the south are equally divided.

In this report, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Huizhou, Zhuhai and Dongguan are selected as the most economically developed cities in Guangdong for calculation and ranking. Huizhou is the only one of the top ten "health-preserving" cities in China in 20 13, with a health index of 2.36, making it the most "health-preserving" city in Guangdong. Changchun, a northern city, was chosen as the most suitable city for health preservation in China because of its strongest sense of happiness and livability.

Emei Mountain is located in Emei, Leshan City, Sichuan Province, and Wawu Mountain is located in Meishan City. The two mountains are not far apart. Su Dongpo once wrote a poem praising the beautiful snow scene of Wawu Mountain. When visiting Wawu Mountain, you can stop by Qiliping Hot Spring in Emei Mountain to relax, which is a very good choice. Wawushan, located in Hongya County, Meishan City, on the western edge of Sichuan Basin, is a famous historical and cultural mountain in China. Wawu Mountain described by Su Dongpo is known as the second best mountain in Sichuan since the Tang and Song Dynasties, and it was also called "the second best mountain in Sichuan" with Emei Mountain as early as the Tang and Song Dynasties. This is the birthplace of Taoism and the last place where the Qiang people settled in Qing Dynasty.

Japan-hot spring health care

1, differentiated embodiment

Hot springs in Japan have evolved from a simple bathing and sightseeing function to a medical function, and then into a leisure way. Many different types of hot spring reserves come from different development backgrounds, such as environmental characteristics and hot spring water quality.

Every hot spring in various regions of Japan has nothing in common, and it is truly "unique" and "unique". The specific differences are mainly reflected in architectural style, landscape, functional products, decoration, business philosophy, service model, cultural activities, theme marketing and so on.

2. Pay attention to the medical effect.

Many Japanese hot springs are famous for their remarkable medical effects: Cao Jin hot springs, alias "medicinal soup"; Zuodu Hot Spring and Yanming Decoction aim at protecting eyes; Moon Bay spring, beautiful magic soup. Moreover, the definition and classification of hot springs in Japan is based on the mineral content that has a healthy effect on the human body. Japan has a series of standards, such as "one thousand daughters must be stipulated". Those who meet these standards can be called hot springs.

3. Strong national characteristics

Japanese villagers used to celebrate by soaking in hot springs and holding traditional bathing festivals. Japanese hot spring hotel (Japanese hot spring hotel) or Japanese hot spring hotel (Japanese Spa) is a unique accommodation facility in Japan, which is generally located in hot spring towns or tourist attractions around the world.

4. Pay attention to value extension.

In addition to maintaining the original medical functions, Japanese hot spring maintenance places have also added many entertainment facilities and places, so that convalescent consumers can enjoy more leisure, extend their stay and create more added value.

Thailand-fitness

1, mainly Thai medicinal bath.

Thai body care refers to a unique Thai herbal steam bath with essential oil massage. Thai herbal steam bath combines the ancient European SPA philosophy with the traditional thai massage technology, which is a skin health and beauty therapy from the inside out.

2. Advocate the trinity of body, mind and spirit.

Thailand's health philosophy advocates physical and mental health, and holds that the overall health of the three is the key to personal achievement. Thailand's fitness program is centered on the human body, and consists of spiritual retreat, life yoga, art detoxification, fitness program customization and other modules from the inside out.

3. It is characterized by combined health care.

The biggest feature of Thai health care is combined health care, including extensive health consultation, beneficial treatment and exercise plan. Thailand's health concept is the integration of eastern and western health concepts, with traditional projects such as thai massage, whole body medicine wrapping, foot massage and more than 200 kinds of eastern and western hot spring therapies as the main body. The outstanding service project is to provide tailor-made private consultation on healthy lifestyle for tourists and create a healthy body and a happy life.
