The wellness concept is transforming almost every aspect of the travel industry\u2014and wellness tourism will only grow faster in years ahead, as it lies at the powerful intersection of two massive, booming industries: the $2.6 trillion tourism industry and the $4.2 trillion wellness market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>KEY FINDINGS <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Global Picture: Recent Growth Everywhere<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>World travelers made 830 million wellness trips in 2017, 139 million more than in 2015, representing 17% of all tourism revenues (or 1 in 6 \u2018dollars spent\u2019).

In 2017, international wellness tourists on average spent $1,528 per trip, 53% more than the typical international tourist. The premium for domestic wellness tourists is even higher: at $609 per trip, they spend 178% more than your average domestic tourist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Secondary Wellness Travelers = Bulk of Trips and Spend<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The GWI identifies two types of wellness travelers<strong>. <\/strong>The \u201cprimary\u201d variety is a traveler whose trip\/destination choice is primarily motivated by wellness. The \u201csecondary\u201d is a traveler who participates in wellness experiences on any leisure or business trip. While there\u2019s a misconception that wellness travelers are a small, elite, rich group who visit destination spas or meditation retreats, it\u2019s actually the more mainstream secondary breed that comprises the dramatic bulk of the market: 89% of wellness trips and 86% of expenditures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More Countries Promoting Their Wellness \u2018Assets\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The number of countries actively marketing their wellness offerings at the national level has jumped from 65 in 2013 to over 100 in 2018. And in the US, while only eight of the fifty states marketed the sector in 2013, now over one-third promote some form of wellness tourism on their official state tourism website. What\u2019s crucial is that destinations are now developing far more authentic, place-based wellness tourism products and brands\u2014whether pioneers like Kerala, India which branded itself the \u201cLand of Ayurveda\u201d over two decades ago or Costa Rica\u2019s new \u201cWellness Pura Vida\u201d campaign.<\/p>\n<p><em>*Euromonitor data for tourism growth overall, 2015-2017 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information, or to speak to GWI researchers,<\/strong>\u00a0contact Beth McGroarty: beth.mcgroarty@globalwellnessinstitute.org or (+1) 213-300-0107<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Global Wellness Institute<\/strong>: The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/\">Global Wellness Institute<\/a>\u00a0(GWI), a nonprofit 501(c)(3), is considered the leading global research and educational resource for the global wellness industry\u00a0and is known for introducing major industry initiatives and regional events that bring together leaders to chart the future.
