Five of the hottest health and wellness opportunities in 2023:

 

​1. Sleep! Who doesn’t need more and better quality of this essential life element? Sleep tourism is where it's at in 2023. This growing health trend offers a unique opportunity to prioritize your rest and relaxation and to improve your overall health and well-being with the added bonus of going someplace dreamy. Imagine traveling to a destination specifically designed to help you improve your sleep quality, surrounded by peaceful natural settings and a range of activities and amenities to promote relaxation. By taking a break from the demands of daily life and focusing on improving your sleep, you can experience reduced stress, improved mood, increased energy levels, and even weight loss.

​

Better sleep can start with offerings from sleep destination resorts with practices such as Shankara-–an ancient essential oil and copper bowl treatment designed for mental and physical rejuvenation. Special-blend tea, a selection of pillows and sheets to encourage more shut-eye, and spa treatments such as hot stone massage, dry flotation, Chakra balancing, and meditation are more options many locations are offering to weary travelers.

 

2. Bring some spice into your life–literally! Nutritionists and naturopathic doctors already see a rise in people finding tasty ways to boost their diet and immune system. Spinach, kale, carrots, and other powerhouse veggies aren’t the only way to eat better. Spices such as Tumeric to reduce inflammation and Ginger to soothe digestion and the nervous system are easy ways to make food even more delicious as well as beneficial. There are hundreds of spices and herbs to add to the pantry that makes a tremendous difference on their own, as well as enticing the palate. Starting with a small herb garden, too, even if it’s only on a sunny kitchen counter–instantly cleans the air and lifts the mood, as well as makes it easy to pop truly fresh herbs into any meal. 

 

3. IV Therapy has gone mainstream and provides an instant way to restore, refresh, and renew. 

In a clinical setting, IVs are now the hot way to make sure your body has all of the nutrients essential for good health. Eating the right on a consistent basis can be challenging in a busy schedule; fast choices seldom fuel the body with proper sustenance.

​

However, IV Nutritional Therapy infuses amino acids, vitamins, and minerals directly into the bloodstream — efficiently delivering these nutrients into the cellular space and bypassing the digestive tract, where much of the nutritional value of foods and supplements can be lost. Plus, IV nutrient therapy provides higher therapeutic doses as compared to oral supplementation to increase energy, improve athletic performance, and look and feel healthier overall.

​4. Being healthy together is where it’s at in 2023. After so much separation in previous years, it makes sense that people want to spend time together again. Studies show that those who start health, wellness, and fitness programs together tend to stay on track and make significant life transformations more than those who go it alone. Look for packages and discounts at local gyms and spas for groups and the entire family. 

 

5. Telehealth has become a boon for those who want personal medical care without the hassle of driving or spending time in crowded waiting rooms. With the ability to provide numerous health services by video and phone, the options are plentiful. Telehealth allows patients and providers to build wellness around the patient in the way that works best for them so that medical and mindfulness care doesn’t get put on the back burner. Telehealth also offers greater access to healthcare services, particularly for those living in remote areas or with mobility issues. With telehealth, individuals can receive timely and efficient care, without compromising on quality. This technology has made healthcare more accessible and convenient than ever before, empowering individuals to take control of their health and well-being from the comfort of their own homes.
