The concept of health tourism is not new. The first recorded instance of health tourism dates back thousands of years to when Greek pilgrims travelled from all over the Mediterranean to a small territory in the Saronic Gulf called Epidauria. “The Asclepieion at Epidaurus was the most celebrated healing center of the classical world, the place where ill people went in the hope of being cured.
To find the right cure for their ailments, they spent a night in the enkoimitiria, a big sleeping hall. In their dreams, the god himself would advise them on what they had to do to regain their health. In the sanctuary, there was a guest house with 160 guestrooms. There were also mineral springs in the vicinity which may have been used for healing.”
