Medical Tourism is a rapidly growing trend and it is now expanding to include advancements in Chiropractic care such as spinal decompression therapy.

What is Medical Tourism?

Medical tourism is a term initially coined by travel agencies and the mass media to describe the practice of traveling across international borders to obtain health care.   The term has since been adapted to include the phenomenon of vacationing with one’s family while seeking medical treatment.  Typically, a resort that supports medical tourism operates under dual purposes of serving the needs of travelers as well as dedicating itself to the health and well-being of its patients.

Newer concepts in medical tourism offer alternative treatments for terminal diseases such as cancer as well as non-surgical treatments for less serious ailments like herniated and bulging spinal discs. Treatment and rehabilitation are conducted in a 5-star luxury resort style setting.  Patients can receive the highest quality treatments from the best physicians from around the world while their families enjoy vacationing at the resort.

I am currently working on a project to bring world-class medical tourism to Panama and Costa Rica.  Stay tuned for more information on this new endeavor.
