Report, "U.S. Vacationers: Happiness, Health & Productivity - An Essential Report for Travel, Hospitality & Wellness Industries" Released by Wellness Tourism Worldwide

LOS ANGELES, June 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Wellness Tourism Worldwide, www.wellnesstourismworldwide.com, a leading wellness travel business, is pleased to announce the release of U.S. Vacationers: Happiness, Health & Productivity – An Essential Report for Travel, Hospitality & Wellness Industries.

The report provides unprecedented data on the role of vacations in health, happiness, productivity and personal transformation in the United States.

One of the great challenges in the U.S. workforce is the ability for employees to take a vacation.  As Americans have increasing challenges to stay healthy, the manner in which leisure time is used is critical to well-being. 

Wellness Tourism Worldwide Founder & CEO, Camille Hoheb, remarked, "Our survey respondents believe vacations are an important aspect of work/life balance – providing time for individuals, couples and friends and family to decompress, connect, explore, engage, learn, renew and transform.  Wellness Tourism Worldwide's mission is to improve well-being and economic growth through travel and we believe in promoting travel as both a personal strategy for wellness and as an economic strategy benefiting businesses and communities."

Offering a timely perspective on what today's American leisure travelers seek, desire and expect during a vacation, the report focuses on the underlying psychology of U.S. vacationers and their decisions related to trip planning, purchase preferences and spending patterns.  Concepts such as health vacations, wellness travel, wellness tourism, healthy hotels and digital detox are on the rise.

A culmination of consumer survey data, extensive literary research and in-depth interviews with key travel executives and thought leaders across hospitality, tourism and wellness sectors, the report is a resource used to aid in wellness promotion, travel marketing, and vacation policy development.  Over 60 tables and figures are contained in the report to assist with strategic planning.
