Wellness Trend 2021
I love diving into wellness trends, reading what is popular and the rationale. There are a bunch of websites offering up their ideas and after reading a bunch of them I am predicting these three will be my wellness trends.
Tech Boundaries: As a pharmacist I am literally looking at a computer for 12-hours straight. I’ve often had struggles with sleeping until recently when I set an alarm on my phone for limiting my personal use & getting a good pair of blue light glasses. While I can’t change my work-computer relationship I can limit my own personal technology boundary.
Touchless Spa Services: I think 2020 has left everyone a little weary of touching each other. I have personally visited a salt spa, where you relax with salt diffusing in the air and left very relaxed afterwards. I foresee myself going to these types of spas in 2021. Other examples are infrared saunas, hyperbaric chambers, float tanks, compression therapy.
Virtual Workouts & Telehealth: I believe these virtual ways are here to stay. I’ve had so many patients tell me they never want to go into a doctor’s office again to have a checkup. It’s so easy to connect over zoom and avoid the lengthy waiting room. I love that I can be in the comfort of your own home.
