The Kao Kamasa Spa at the Kimpton Grand Roatán Resort in Honduras has partnered with the Global Alliance for Regenerative Medicine Clinic, known as GARM.

The specialised medical clinic’s offering positions the resort as a player in Roatán’s medical tourism sector. The therapies include IV drips and aesthetic facial treatments.

In terms of operations, the clinic treatments take place within the spa’s existing treatment rooms and are administered by GARM’s medical team. The therapies are overseen by Glenn Terry, a US orthopaedic surgeon with over 40 years of experience.

Maureen Bankson, EVP for spa and wellness at Kimpton Grand Roatán Resort and Spa told Spa Business: "Our partnership with GARM represents a meaningful evolution of the wellness experience at Kimpton Grand Roatán and Spa. As a five-star resort, our guests are looking for personalised, holistic, immersive wellness experiences, transformative, results-driven treatments and restorative spa rituals. 

“Integrating GARM’s medical aesthetics and advanced therapies allows us to bridge holistic wellness with clinical excellence in a seamless, elevated way,” added Bankson. “This collaboration enhances the existing Kao Kamasa Spa offering by expanding into longevity, performance and aesthetic optimisation. With this partnership, we’re confident we will attract discerning travellers who prioritise proactive health, refinement and innovation as part of their luxury experience."
