What is a Check Up Journey?
I worked on this project for three years. I visited the places, I did the checkup myself, and I came home with a book full of my own lab results and a new chair for my back. That is a Check Up Journey: a week where real doctors look at your whole body, and the rest of the time is all about you. Spa, thermal waters, yoga, meals prepared for what your body needs. You go home rested, and you go home knowing.
“You cannot get more personalized than this program.”Cessy
What happens during the Italy week?
Seven days in Castrocaro Terme, in Emilia-Romagna, at the Lucia Magnani Health Clinic inside an all-inclusive spa resort famous for its thermal waters.

How does it work?

Tell me what you need.
The kind of care, where you would like to go and when.
- 2
I connect you.
I introduce you to the right facility, and the facility reviews your case directly with you.
- 3
I plan the journey.
Flights, hotel, transfers and a few beautiful days to rest, all arranged around your appointments.
Who plans your journey?
I came from Peru with one suitcase, and 42 years later I have traveled all seven continents. I spent three years building Check Up Journeys, and I do not send anyone where I have not been first. I did the labs, the posture class, the spa and the trainer, and I still use what I learned there every day. When I send you somewhere, I know where I am sending you; and I would love to go back with you.
