Abstract(s)
Na atualidade, existe uma crescente tendência para que o turista procure novas
experiências durante as suas viagens em lazer ou férias. Cada vez mais essas
experiências encontram eco em locais aprazíveis de relaxamento. No entanto, uma
atividade turística clássica continua a ser muito procurada – o termalismo – o qual já
não oferece apenas os habituais e tradicionais tratamentos com água, mas também
outras alternativas, reunindo um complexo de propostas um pouco para todos os gostos
e todas as bolsas. A viagem, a estadia, a gastronomia, o disfrute das paisagens e dos
locais históricos e culturais são hoje adicionados de lugares onde a saúde e o bem-estar
complementam de forma muito compensadora os turistas que a procuram. Porém,
escolher onde dormir, o que comer e o que visitar, é diferente de decidir que tratamentos
de saúde e bem-estar pode e deve obter e quais os que serão benéficos e não
prejudiciais às necessidades de cada um. A questão de investigação é, portanto,
percecionar se Literacia em Saúde do turista influencia as suas escolhas de saúde e
bem-estar. Através da realização de um estudo empírico, tendo por base um inquérito
por questionário, foram obtidas algumas respostas às questões levantadas no trabalho
e conclui-se que alguns resultados em termos de Literacia em Saúde, divergem
ligeiramente de estudos anteriores
Currently, there is a growing tendency for tourists to look for new experiences during their leisure or vacation trips. Increasingly, these experiences are echoed in pleasant places of relaxation. However, a classic tourist activity continues to be in high demand – thermalism – which no longer offers only the usual and traditional treatments with water, but also other alternatives, bringing together a complex of proposals for all tastes and all budgets. Travel, stay, gastronomy, enjoy the landscapes and historical and cultural sites are today added to places where health and well-being complement tourists who seek it in a very rewarding way. However, choosing where to sleep, what to eat and what to visit is different from deciding which health and wellness treatments you can and should get and which ones will be beneficial and not harmful to your needs. The research question is, therefore, to understand if the health and wellness tourist influences his choices of health and wellbeing. What is the Health Literacy level of our health and wellness tourists? By carrying out an empirical study, based on a questionnaire survey, some answers were obtained to the questions raised by the work and them conclusion shows that some results in terms of Health Literacy, differ slightly from previous studies.
