“…The growing acceptance of this multidimensional approach to wellness has been tied to a change in the popular conception of health and wellness (Medina-Mun ˜oz and Medina-Mun ˜oz, 2013), the stressful nature of modern society (Frow and Payne, 2009), the prospects of social tourism (Diekmann and McCabe, 2016;Morgan et al, 2015;McCabe et al, 2010), the relationship between co-creation and well-being (Dekhili and Hallem, 2020) and to the well-being of workers through tourism experience (Lee et al, 2018). As the conceptual paradigm of wellness tourism is gradually being modified, the concept is evolving from a traditional view of health (Kamassi et al, 2020;Heung and Kucukusta, 2013;Smith and Puczk o, 2008) to a holistic wellness orientation (Kazakov and Oyner, 2020;Dillette et al, 2020;GWI, 2018;Star a and Peterson, 2017;Pyke et al, 2016;Smith and Kelly, 2006).…”
