| DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Feb. 10, 2016 – Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection, the world’s most award-winning river cruise line, continues to innovate the river cruising experience with their multi-faceted Wellness Program. Recognizing that personal health is an important consideration for travelers, Uniworld provides a variety of services that treat the mind, body and spirit both onboard and onshore.
“Uniworld is committed to delivering a superior experience at every level,” said Guy Young, president, Uniworld. “We recognize that health and fitness are top priorities to our guests and we strive to provide our guests with a multitude of activities ranging from rejuvenating spa treatments to private TRX suspension workouts and onshore guided biking and hiking excursions.”
The Serenity River Spa® offers a wide selection of tranquil services, expertly designed to soothe and invigorate. Examples of available treatments include traditional Thai Foot and Hand Treatments, which incorporate elements of Shiatsu, reflexology, and Chinese massage and yoga; the Honey Body Beauty Treatment, which cleanses the body of toxins while delivering a rich supply of Vitamins C, B1 and B2; Hot Stone Treatments, which deeply relax the muscles and relieve stress using water-heated Basalt stones; and Women’s Facial Moments , which combines oils and plant extracts with individualized massage techniques to restore and recondition the skin. Each treatment uses only the finest products, made from premium natural and organic ingredients, to nourish the body and stimulate the senses.
Yoga and exercise classes are available for guests in addition to each ship’s well-equipped fitness center. Innovative activities include the Five Tibetan Rites, a system of exercises reported to be more than 2,500 years old, and TRX® suspension bodyweight training, where users leverage gravity and their own body weight to complete hundreds of exercises. Select ships also feature heated swimming pools, and guests staying in suites are treated to one complimentary personal training sessionand a meeting with an Onboard Wellness Coach.
Uniworld also offers a broad range of dynamic onshore experiences, including Go Active hiking and biking excursions led by local naturalists and sports guides. Guests can experience each destination from a unique angle – such as paddling a kayak under an ancient Roman aqueduct – or borrow one of Uniworld’s complimentary bicycles or Nordic walking sticks and explore on their own. Gentle Walking excursions are also active, but provide a more relaxed pace and plenty of time to enjoy the scenery.
Finally, Uniworld provides a “Traveling Lite” menu as well as vegetarian options, allowing guests to enjoy a sumptuous selection of meals without compromising their dietary needs. Working with a palette of the freshest and highest-quality local ingredients, sourced from farmers’ markets and artisanal producers, Uniworld’s chefs embody the unique character of each region and season while catering to guests’ individual preferences.
