This study compared and analyzed the trends of wellness-related tourism polices in Japan, which have policy similarities with Korea, through related literature research and online interview surveys amid growing demand for wellness tourism in Korea's wellness tourism policy implications. According to the survey, wellness tourism-related concepts do not differ particularly between Korea and Japan, and the use of health tourism or wellness tourism concepts is more common in Japan than healing tourism. Wellness tourism policy is analyzed to be more systematic in Japan in the areas of policy principal agent's flexibility, policy efficiency, related certification, and human resource development, and Korea in the driving force and institutional maintenance of policy. It was judged that Korea needs to establish a wellness tourism consultative body, such as the case of Japan, and improve efficiency through systematic certification of wellness tourism and qualitative management of related manpower. In order to industrialize wellness tourism, it is necessary to increase the healing effectiveness and product value of wellness tourism by organically linking wellness resources specialized by region, and to conduct in-depth analysis of the direction and strategies of wellness tourism policies in preparation for the post-Corona(COVID-19) Era and an empirical study of tourism sites.

여가생활과 건강에 대한 관심이 증대함에 따라 웰니스와 휴양과 관련한 컨텐츠가 요구되면서 산림치유, 해양치유와 같은 헬스 투어리즘에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 산과 바다를 모두 갖고 있는 우리나라의 경우 치유산업의 발전가능성이 충분하고 치유자원 발굴, 효능에 관련된 연구도 진행되고 있다. 해양치유시설은 프로그램에 맞게 제어 가능한 실내에 비해 옥외활동에는 가능한 시간, 기후가 한정되어 있으며 지역특성에 따라 달리 적용되어야 함에도 불구하고 아직 명확한 기준이 미비하다. 이에 본 연구는 해양치유 옥외활동에 적합한 기후환경 가이드라인 개발을 위해 온열환경, 풍환경, 공기환경 및 체감온도, 불쾌지수와 같은 생활지수와 같은 항목을 정리하고 해당 데이터를 활용하여 옥외활동을 할 수 있는 시간, 기후 등 판단기준을 작성하고자 한다.
