HealingGuide. Your global source
Healing is not a label. It’s a lived experience. We don’t list hotels. We reveal sanctuaries.
In today’s wellness world, the term healing is used everywhere. Hotels add a massage room and call themselves healing retreats. Labels are handed out for a fee. But true healing cannot be bought, staged, or scripted.
At Healingguide, we don’t certify – we connect.
We seek places with presence. With resonance. With people who embody what they offer.
We believe healing is not a concept. It’s a frequency.
You can feel it when you enter a space that doesn’t try to impress you – but simply holds you.
That’s the kind of place we include.
Every property featured in Healingguide has been chosen not just for what it offers – but for how it feels. And that makes all the difference.

The Next Chapter of HealingGuide
By 2018, the Healingguide website had grown to represent over 1,000 resorts and was attracting thousands of visitors through organic search alone.
However, from 2018 to 2021, founder Thomas Zerlauth shifted his focus to other ventures, and the site entered a period of stagnation. As a result, it gradually lost relevance, no longer fulfilling its original purpose. During this time, the wellness industry experienced a surge in new providers eager to capitalize on the growing health trend. Many hotels jumped on the bandwagon, but often with superficial offerings and underdeveloped concepts.
As a seasoned brand developer — and passionate photographer — in the health and wellness space, Thomas had already helped shape the success of several internationally renowned brands. In early 2021, he returned to Healingguide with a renewed vision: to completely reimagine the platform and realign it with the needs of people seeking genuine, thoughtful, and trustworthy healing experiences.
Nearly all previous listings and pages were removed to create space for a clean, purposeful restart — one unburdened by outdated content or diluted direction. What you see now is the beginning of that transformation.
At Healingguide, our commitment is to continuous development and an uncompromising focus on quality — both in the partners we feature and the way we present them. This is just the start of a much deeper journey.
Why We Created the HealingGuide.
We believe everyone holds the power to heal. Some nurture it through personal growth, while others benefit from guidance — especially during times of illness, stress, or life changes.
HealingGuide was created to make that support accessible. Here you’ll find a curated collection of healing sanctuaries and wellness destinations, with flexible filters to match your health goals, interests, and budget.
Whether you seek relief from burnout, chronic pain, or emotional exhaustion — or simply wish to recharge, grow, and transform — HealingGuide connects you with meaningful options for your journey.
Each listing is handpicked by our experienced team, and we’re building a trusted network of healers, therapists, and teachers to support your next step. Subscribe to be among the first to explore them.
A Word of Clarity
Healing means something different to everyone. Our hope is to be a supportive resource — for those who enjoy good health and want to deepen it, and for those facing physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual challenges.
We do not offer guarantees. Healing is a personal journey, and we never want to exploit vulnerability. Instead, we aim to inspire new possibilities — options you can explore and discuss with your healthcare provider to see if they’re right for you.
We make every effort to offer honest, thoughtful recommendations. All partners featured in the Healing Guide have been thoroughly reviewed by our team. While we do receive payment from selected partners, inclusion is never automatic. Each listing is accepted only if we truly believe in its quality and value.
No guide is perfect, and not every place will be right for every person. So if something speaks to you, we encourage you to explore further on the partner’s own website. We recommend with care and integrity — only what we would consider for ourselves.
