About Heal & Rest
A specialist for thoughtful wellness journeys
We bring wellness research and complete travel planning together: helping you understand the options, choose a stay that fits and arrange the journey around it — never to diagnose, prescribe or replace medical advice.
Why this exists
Wellness travel can be difficult to compare. The same programme name may describe a restorative spa stay at one property and a highly structured, practitioner-led course at another.
That difference affects almost every part of the trip: the ideal length, the daily routine, the food, the level of supervision, what a travelling companion can do and even the best season to arrive.
Heal & Rest exists to make those distinctions clear. We compare published programme details, the setting, professional standards and the practical journey, then help you decide what belongs on your shortlist.
You can enquire about every house on this site through us. Whatever you choose, our expertise is travel: planning the stay, route, transfers and time around the programme.

How we research
Clear sourcing, confirmed before you book.
Every profile is built from the property’s own published information, official registers and accreditation records, and everything is confirmed with the property when we prepare your quote.
- 01What the regulator says
Whether the discipline is licensed in that country and by whom, and whether the property holds anything beyond a tourism grade — a hospital accreditation, a pharmacy licence, a spring certification. Where a discipline is unregulated, its page says so.
- 02What published evidence says
Discipline pages distinguish established evidence, mixed findings and traditional use. They are editorial travel guides, not medical assessments.
- 03What the programme contains
Daily structure, programme length, a starting price where one is published, inclusions and important suitability considerations, drawn from published details and confirmed at quotation.
- 04What we confirm for you
Before you commit, we confirm the current programme, room, rate and booking terms with the property in writing.
The other half
We are the wellness travel agency within TripClub
That connection lets us plan more than the stay. Our team can coordinate the route, transfers, accommodation and well-timed extensions as one complete journey.
- 1
Flights ticketed on our own desk, held with the programme rather than bought separately weeks later
- 2
Airport transfers, drivers and internal connections arranged by people who run them daily
- 3
Leisure and touring either side of the stay, in the same booking and on one invoice
- 4
One travel team to support the whole journey, from the first conversation to the journey home
Flights, ticketed by us
On our own desk rather than a link to somebody else's. That means the fare is held alongside the programme rather than bought weeks later at whatever is left, the routing is chosen for the transfer at the other end, and when weather closes Paro or Dehradun there is somebody whose job it is to rebook you.
How the flight desk worksLeisure, on request, correctly timed
Every destination page carries what there is to see — and, more usefully, whether it belongs before the programme, after it, or on a rest day. Booking a temple tour for day nine of a Panchakarma is how people quietly ruin a Panchakarma, and it is the one thing an excursions list never tells you.

6 multi-night add-ons — the Golden Triangle after Kerala, Corbett and the Kumaon hills after Rishikesh. Same booking, same reference, same phone number.

How pricing works
The initial planning call is complimentary. Your proposal then itemises the programme, accommodation and any travel arrangements you ask us to include.
| The question | The answer |
|---|---|
| Is it cheaper direct? | Rates and offers can vary by date and availability. We will confirm the current like-for-like programme and room price in writing before you pay. |
| Is the planning call free? | Yes. The thirty-minute call helps us understand your travel goals and decide what should go into a useful shortlist. Nothing is booked or paid during the call. |
| Do you charge a booking fee? | Any applicable fee will be shown in your written proposal before you confirm. Property, airline and supplier change or cancellation terms will also be provided. |
| Can a property pay to appear here? | No. Properties cannot buy a listing or a higher position on this site. Profiles are editorial. |
| What about flights and extensions? | Quoted separately and itemised — you see the fare, the transfer and the extension as their own lines rather than folded into one number. You can take the programme without them if you would rather book flights yourself. |
| When is the price fixed? | Your written quote confirms the current rate, inclusions and booking terms. It will also state how long the offer is valid, since airline and property deadlines can differ. |
With preferred travel seasons for each.
