| Description | In the Czech setting wellness is known as a synonym of spa facilities, but the former concept of wellness, as it evolved in USA in the 70´s, is a holistic model of health which serves as an alternative to traditional perception of human health. Knowledge of the origins, former theories and current application of wellness is necessary for healthy development of this industry, not only in the Czech Republic. |
