Almost every wellness centre's site is beautiful. That is the problem: photography is not information, and the differences that matter are usually two clicks deep or missing entirely.
What should the site tell me plainly?
Six things. Who is on staff, by name and qualification. What is measured, when, and what happens with the results. What a day looks like, hour by hour, on the programme you are considering. Who supervises anything medical — fasting, infusions, prescriptions. What the price includes, and what is billed on top. And what the policy is if you arrive unwell or need to leave early.
What are the warning signs?
Claims of curing named diseases. "Toxins" that are never named. A proprietary device whose mechanism is never explained. Diagnostics offered as a package with no doctor attached to interpret them. Testimonials doing the work that a described programme should do. And prices that appear only after a form — a directory listing that hides basic facts usually has a reason.
Does a "medical" label mean anything?
It means something when it is specific: a physician on site, a named specialty, a clinic licence, or a stated protocol. It means very little as a mood. The useful question is not "is this medical?" but "who is responsible for my care here, and what are they licensed to do?"
How do I compare places fairly?
Compare on programme, not on photography. Pick the two or three things you actually want — supervised fasting, a metabolic workup, a thermal cure, quiet — and check each candidate against them. This directory tags every centre by what it offers so the first pass can be done on facts: browse the catalogue, or start from the map if the trip is the constraint.
How reliable is the information in this directory?
Some of it is hand-checked and marked verified; the rest is imported from OpenStreetMap for coverage and clearly labelled as such, with a link to the source. We do not publish ratings or prices we cannot stand behind, and we do not invent facts — the data sources page explains exactly where each entry comes from.
Is this medical advice?
No. It is guidance on reading marketing. Any programme that touches medication, fasting or a diagnosed condition should be discussed with your own doctor first.
