Home is where the wellness retreat is — with today’s home gyms being converted into dedicated wellness spaces bespoke to their unique occupant’s personal practices.

As we continue to dedicate more and more time to our wellbeing practices, it’s little wonder that we’re also creating spaces in our homes for wellness sanctuaries of our very own. Whether it’s a dedicated, spa-like oasis, complete with an infrared sauna and temperature-controlled ice bath for daily contrast therapy, or a chic home gym conceived with your particular preferences in mind — from a Pilates reformer to a fully-equipped Technogym to a tech-led fitness mirror, the choice, ultimately, is yours, and the possibilities are endless.

Contrast therapy has quickly risen through the echelons as the incredible benefits of hot-cold exposure become more widely known. And, as more people cotton on to the impact a daily contrast practice can have on both physical and mental health, so too has there been advanced development in sleek and efficacious saunas and ice baths for at-home use.

A far cry from the lowly garage gyms of times gone by, today’s at-home gyms are sanctuary-like spaces, making breaking a sweat all the more appealing. From Celine’s monogrammed Pilates reformer and weights sets to Technogym’s elevated and cleverly-designed benches to Nordictrack’s Vault Training System — offering a virtual, at-home personal trainer, the options are endless, turning a once purely functional corner of your home into a striking focal point.
