We closed 2025 with gratitude. 🙏 First and foremost — for our patients.

Gratitude takes many forms. In 2025, our departments were filled with cards, flowers, and thoughtful gestures brought from your home countries. These moments matter to us. Deeply. 💙

Even when our native languages differ, we understand each other.
Through English ☺️
And through care, trust, and appreciation — languages that need no translation. 🫶

At Wellness Travels, we look ahead with confidence.
2026 will be another strong year — and this is only the beginning.

Very soon, we will share the first important updates in the joint replacement field, with more to follow as the year unfolds 🪄

Thank you for choosing us. 💙
Thank you for trusting us. 💙
In 2026, we will do even more — for YOU. 💙

A shoutout to our outstanding physiotherapy team, whose expertise helps patients return to a full, active life ❤️🫶

🌲 How do you say Christmas in Lithuanian? ⬇️ The word Kalėdos comes from ancient Baltic traditions and originally referred to the winter solstice — the return of light and a new cycle. Although it is associated with the celebration of Christ’s birth today, the word itself has remained unchanged through centuries of cultural and religious transformation.

🆕 Giant ventral hernia repair (bikini-line incision) is now available at Gijos Klinikos! Advanced abdominal wall reconstruction for large and complex hernias.

This is not routine hernia surgery.
It is a carefully planned reconstruction designed to return displaced organs, restore core function, and achieve a durable, tension-free repair — with a low, discreet incision placed along the bikini line when clinically appropriate. More:

A bikini-line incision allows for a durable, tension-free repair with minimal visible scarring. Our EU-licensed surgeons use advanced techniques to restore abdominal stability and prevent recurrence.
