Marbella and The Costa del Sol are well known as being a great destination for disconnecting and unwinding from your day to day life, a place to relax and enjoy wonderful surroundings. For many years due to its fantastic climate and the promise of a fantastic quality of life, a body and beauty cult began making sure you are able to live as long as possible and always look your best. In addition, health care and physical appearance are currently in high demand. Over the years health care specialists have brought new techniques and methods to Marbella, established their practices in the area and continue to attract people from around the globe.
Varied are the methods that people use to achieve these results by purifying the body and or going through physical change to achieve the unique look that they desire. This type of tourist who visits Marbella usually returns through the following years, continuing to improve themselves, and for this reason, many chose to move to Marbella for three or four months during the warmer periods to start their transformations then staying and enjoying our beautiful summers. This change/transformation can be achieved in various ways depending on the desired end result, by hard work and physical exercise or with specialized centres and clinics.
In the sports section as we have explained in depth on previous blogs, our great climate is fundamental and enables us to be able to offer a wide variety of options to satisfy all tastes. Water sports prevail in Marbella promoting the area, but also focus on physical change and improvement. For example we can find Cross fit centres or Functional training that will burn fat and tone your body through their high intensity workouts. Some of these workouts are enjoyed on our beaches, taking advantage of training on sand and the positive impact it has on joints. Pilates and Yoga are sought after on the Costa del Sol and it is common to see gyms where both activities are combined seeking a balance between body and mind, with the advantage that Pilates will provide everything necessary to tone the body through exercises specially developed to correct muscular weakness.
The second point that makes Marbella and the Costa del Sol unique to achieving this kind of change to our body are the clinics and centres that are provided and highly sought after by specific clients. We have a large variety of options including specialised dental clinics or surgery and facial aesthetics clinics with high qualified teams of surgeons and specialists. Some of the most well known locations for these types of treatments are the Hospiten or Método Rail.
Hospiten forms part of a group of clinics located in Spain, the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Jamaica. You can find sport study specialists who improve performance by using Lasik a laser technique, improving on your sight and enabling vision without the use of glasses or contact lenses with a quick and painless procedure, as well as cosmetic surgery treatments all performed at the Quirón Hospital in Marbella. In contrast, Método Rail with specialist Manuel Sánchez, can complete sessions in thirty minutes without the need of surgery. They achieve immediate results without bruising, inflammation and therefore without interrupting the social and work life of the patient. Techniques such as rhinoplasty, peeling and mesotherapy, tensioning threads or correction of bags under the eyes can be found in the Rail Method offer. A new approach to aesthetic care with less aggressive techniques and speedy processes.
Without a doubt, we must point out one of the pioneering clinics in aesthetic care that uses some of the most revolutionary methods. Yes, we are talking about the Buchinger clinic. It opened its doors in Marbella 1973, since then it follows its methods in accordance to the guidelines set by its founder Dr. Otto Buchinger with an integrative method to maintain, improve and heal the health of their patients while supporting them through the process of their personal development. Integrative medicine, as they like to call it, is a bridge between Western scientific medicine and natural methods. This world-known method is based on a water-based fast, vegetable juices and broths, homeopathy, exercises and walks. It does not focus on weight loss, weight loss is a secondary result to this method. The program takes 21 days of which are typically distributed in the following manner (2 warming up days, 16 days of treatment and 4 days reincorporating your usual habits) the program includes massage, yoga, tai-chi, acupuncture, colon hydrotherapy, meditation, exercise, going for walks in the fresh air, as well as incorporating diets with a low calorie count, starting from 200 calories per day. The merit however, was to discover that fasting achieves great results, both Hippocrates and Paracelsus were known by the name of archeus or primary force for using this system which in today’s world is referred to as self-healing or self-curing.
Unsurprisingly Marbella has become renowned for body and image improvements, to live a happy and fulfilled live both inside and out.
