PUNTARENAS, COSTA RICA, May 25, 2011 (Press-News.org) The award-winning Gaia Hotel & Reserve is proud to announce its All Inclusive Wellness Life Packages. Gaia is nestled in the spectacular rain forest of Costa Rica's central Pacific coast. It is a 5 star hotel, offering all the amenities to the discerning traveler, and a private nature reserve as well. Here you can see endangered species of animals.

Not only is the Gaia Hotel interested in preserving wild life and nature but also caters to your health and well-being. You can set your soul free from the stress and strain of everyday living at this Costa Rica wellness retreat and rejuvenate yourself both mentally and physically, while still enjoying the comforts of a 5 star resort.

There are 4 All Inclusive Wellness Life Packages being offered by Gaia Hotel & Reserve. They are holistic and help you to look at your overall mental and physical health. The packages combine massage, Aromatherapy and natural therapies that include yoga sessions, as well as a myriad of spa treatments and physical activities. The emphasis is on treating you in a natural way and making you feel better both mentally and physically. You will have a consultation with a trained nutritionist after your blood test to determine which gourmet menu is suited best for you.

The packages include a 7-day stay in a room, suite or villa and are geared towards adults only, luxury wellness holidays. You can go on a private tour for 2 in the nature reserve or just relax at the spa. You will get 3 meals a day plus snacks and smoothies. The packages also include a dental checkup and overall dental cleaning. It provides a Costa Rica yoga retreat for the guests.

The Gaia project did not start out as a hotel but rather as a reserve. Dario Castelfranco and his wife came to Costa Rica in 1989 to start a botanical garden to save endangered species of orchids. However they ended up founding the Jardin Gaia conservation center in 1991. This center was a veterinary clinic dedicated to rehabilitating wounded and endangered wildlife species and endangered species of orchids. Jardin Gaia maintained its protection of natural habitats until the Castelfrancos relocated in 2004 and the conservation concept was passed on to the current owners.

The new management team at Gaia Hotel & Reserve has created these unique Costa Rica wellness retreats with the idea of taking care of their guests' mental and physical wellness while still providing 5 star accommodations and amenities. To ensure a complete retreat, guests are encouraged to tour the 10 acre, private nature reserve where many precious species of wildlife take refuge.

Satisfied customers were heard to quote that "There is not a better place in the world." Many are returning guests and the common buzz words taken directly from them were "Fabulous," "Fantastic," "Incredible" and "Amazing."

Gaia Hotel & Reserve is an adults only luxury boutique 5 star hotel and resort and a member of "Small Luxury Hotels of the World". For further information, please contact us at: 1-800-226-2515 (Toll Free USA/CAN) or 011-506-2777-9797(Costa Rica Direct) or send us an e-mail to wellness@gaiahr.com.

Medical students have substantial exposure to pharmaceutical industry marketing

2011-05-25

Medical students in the United States are frequently exposed to pharmaceutical marketing, even in their preclinical years, and the extent of their contact with industry is associated with positive attitudes about marketing and skepticism towards any negative implications. These findings from research led by Kirsten Austad and Aaron S. Kesselheim from the Harvard Medical School in Boston, USA, published in this week's PLoS Medicine, suggest that strategies to educate students about interactions with the pharmaceutical industry should directly address widely-held misconceptions ...

Sleep deprivation in doctors

2011-05-25

Sleep deprivation is an issue that affects practising physicians and not only medical residents, and we need to establish standards for maximum work and minimum uninterrupted sleep to ensure patient safety, states an editorial in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/embargo/cmaj110402.pdf.

Migration an overlooked health policy issue: New series

2011-05-25

If internal and international migrants comprised a nation, it would be the third most populous country in the world, just after China and India. Thus, there can be little doubt that population mobility is among the leading policy issues of the 21st century. However, policies to protect migrants and global health have so far been hampered by inadequate policy attention and poor international coordination. This is the conclusion of a new article in PLoS Medicine arguing that current policy-making on migration and health has been conducted within sector silos, which frequently ...

Brisk walking could improve prostate cancer outcomes

2011-05-25

PHILADELPHIA — Men with prostate cancer can improve their outcomes if they walk briskly for at least three hours a week following their diagnosis, according to a recent study in Cancer Research, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research. "It appears that men who walk briskly after their diagnosis may delay or even prevent progression of their disease," said lead researcher Erin Richman, Sc.D., a research associate at the University of California, San Francisco. Richman said the evidence adds to the growing body of literature that suggests walking regularly ...
