Bella Vita Retreat! New Health Resort

Charleston, SC, July 20, 2005 --(PR.com)-- Margot Rutigliano, owner of Bella Vita, has moved the concept of the health resort in a new direction. Shifting gears from the formerly termed “fat farm,” this is the updated, luxurious and sophisticated version. The newest in health resorts, Bella Vita travels to your home or vacation destination providing the best of both worlds, convenience and quality.

Featuring energizing morning workouts to fresh scents of aromatherapy candles, Bella Vita is more than just a health retreat. This unique wellness spa travels to the client bringing a full line of services including Personal Training, Nutrition, Personal Chef, Spa Services, Yoga, Pilates and Outdoor Fitness Activities. Providing clients with the health resort experience, Bella Vita gives clients the fresh perspective they need to adhere to a healthier lifestyle.

Hard work and dedication always pays off in the end, which has been proven by the success people have with this program. Bella Vita’s core is made up of a “Five Step Process” developed by Miss Rutigliano. During this process, individuals go through an extensive medical, fitness and nutrition history, establish goals and learn to implement healthy eating and nutrition regimens. Each program is highly personalized focusing on each unique individual. Clients workout twice daily and learn to plan and prepare exciting healthy meals. Margot helps client’s reorganize their kitchen pantries and refrigerators and takes a trip to the local supermarket with them to define the dos and don’ts of grocery shopping. Because many people dine outside of the home, she also joins clients while dining at a restaurant to guide them in proper menu selections. Margot believes it is important to give clients options including eating out because so many times we socialize around food and drinking.

While participants work very hard during their time spent with Bella Vita, they are rewarded with luxury. Everyone deserves to be pampered Bella Vita style, which offers a various menu of spa services. Gift bags complete with soft workout towels, aromatherapy candles and fitness gear are included as well.

Based on the concept that we live in a time-starved world, Bella Vita allows individuals to complete their experience from their preferred location with the highest quality service. Programs are offered for individuals, couples, and small groups and are 3 to 14 days in length. Bella Vita is currently services all of the US, but focuses on the South East.

Margot Rutigliano developed this program through experiences with her own clients and the need for luxury and convenience. With over seven years of experience in the fitness industry, she holds several national personal training certifications and is also a Zone Certified Nutrition Instructor. Honored for success at personal training, she was awarded Best Personal Trainer for Charleston, SC in 2002 and has been involved with local news media for fitness and makeover events. Margot recently appeared in the Moultrie News as well as Charleston Magazine and is currently involved with a make over series for Deep Magazine. She is also the creator/developer of local “Boot Camp” sports programs.

Bella Vita’s newest edition beginning in August 2005 is the addition of destination fitness workshops termed “Ultimate Retreat.” Rutigliano will travel with groups to predetermined destinations where a week in the sun will be filled with workshops and activities covering all aspects of fitness. The Ultimate Retreat will also dive into nutrition, supplementation and how to live a healthy lifestyle. It wouldn’t be the “Ultimate Retreat” without a half-day of spa services, which include massage, body wraps, facials and more. Participants also receive gift bags and fitness accessories to continue their success at home.

Bella Vita is centrally located on the East Coast in Charleston, SC and will travel to the client’s preferred destination including all of the US and the Caribbean. Schedules for the Ultimate Retreat are currently available.
