Healing powers and people of Boquete featured in new event

I just read that Boquete is hosting health and Wellness Week coming up soon and I have been talking about why people gravitate to our little town. 

JUNE 20 – 26: BOQUETE HEALTH AND WELLNESS WEEK

The spring-like climate of the town of Boquete in the Chiriquí province has been attracting people in search of better health for many years. In more recent years, several health practitioners have been attracted to Boquete and the town now boasts world-class venues where people can receive treatments and learn about improving their health while enjoying the benefits of the ideal environment.

This trend has given birth to a new event, the Boquete Health and Wellness Week. The event commences on June 20 with activities at different venues in and around Boquete through June 26. There will be health talks, presentations and activities including alternative health, spiritual wellbeing, anti-aging, skincare, yoga and tai chi among other subjects.
