Tenerife adds health tourism to travel offering

Tenerife Tourism Corporation is gearing up for the launch of ‘Tenerife Medical Destination’, a new brand that will promote the island’s medical tourism offering.

Visitors to Tenerife can benefit from a range of top quality medical, surgical and wellbeing treatments at very competitive prices, due to the island’s tax incentives, while also enjoying the island’s stunning landscapes and all-year-round spring-like temperatures.

The new brand, Tenerife Medical Destination, which was designed to provide visitors to the island with access to trusted healthcare professionals and medical facilities, such as hospitals, spas and hotels, taps into the increase in demand for health tourism in Tenerife.

Alberto Bernabé, Tourism Minister for the Tenerife Island Government, said: “The number of tourists combining healthcare treatments with their holidays in Tenerife keeps increasing.”

In order to meet this demand, Tenerife Tourism Corporation has launched the new brand to offer visitors advice and help in finding top-quality services across the island.

Visitors looking to find out more about medical tourism can access this information through a specific section on the island’s tourist page, which receives more than four million visits per year: webtenerife.com/turismomedico.

It is translated into seven languages and provides users with a comprehensive overview of the island’s medical tourism offering, including what medical and wellness treatments are available and from which facilities.

Treatments available on the island include therapeutic recreation and rehabilitation, dentistry and cosmetic surgery, and aesthetic or cardiovascular treatments. Wellness treatments are also available, these include yoga and meditation, as well as beauty treatments.
