The new brand in the Gharieni Group portfolio – Metawell – is delivering what today’s wellness clients are seeking most – deep recovery and mind-body renewal
Recovery has become a front-and-centre topic across the wellness scene – from elite sporting facilities to corporate wellbeing, and from spas to wellness resorts.
In a world defined by speed and constant demands, the deepest luxury today goes beyond indulgence: it’s the ability to recover and reset both body and mind.
For spa operators, this rising demand is both a challenge and an opportunity. Guests expect more than relaxation; they want offerings that accelerate and amplify wellness outcomes in tangible ways. This is where Metawell steps in – a new brand from leading spa equipment manufacturer Gharieni, which is designed to deliver its mind-body wellness technologies exclusively to the global market.
With a portfolio of 10 cutting-edge technologies, Metawell delivers evidence-based, touchless and hybrid treatments designed to address recovery across body and mind — from calming the nervous system and reducing inflammation to boosting immunity and supporting mental fitness.
Metawell’s approach empowers operators to offer variety and measurable results. This not only satisfies the growing appetite for recovery but also enables operators to future-proof their businesses with scalable, ROI-driven wellness experiences.
Sammy Gharieni, founder and CEO of Gharieni Group, says: “True recovery addresses inflammation, improved immune function and the stress response – outcomes that matter deeply to today’s consumer.
“Metawell supports the delivery of these results consistently – and in ‘touchless’ formats, making it a big value proposition for customer wants and needs, while providing great returns.
“Recovery is not a trend – it’s a shift to the foundation of wellbeing, and Metawell is there to support and guide that shift,” he says.
Relaxation to recovery
Today’s consumers know that recovery is more than unwinding after a busy day and are seeking treatments to help them achieve a physiological and psychological reset.
Metawell’s mind-body wellness technologies are designed with this in mind. Touchless and fully-automated, they offer consistent experiences for guests while optimising staff resources. Some integrate seamlessly with traditional spa services, complementing the human touch and allowing operators to expand their menus with innovative, evidence-based options.
The physical benefits of recovery technologies are well-documented. Modalities such as far-infrared (MLX i3Dome), Intermittent Vacuum Therapy (G-Vac), and sound or hydrotherapy (Zestós DryFloat) can reduce muscular tension, support lymphatic drainage and assist detoxification. These processes are vital in lowering inflammation – a key contributor to fatigue, pain and accelerated ageing.
When inflammation is managed and circulation improves, the immune system is strengthened. People ‘bounce back’ faster, with more energy and resilience after stress, exercise or travel. By offering technologies that directly support immune function, spas align with one of today’s top wellness priorities.
Recovery requires shifting into the parasympathetic state, where the nervous system rests and restores balance. Binaural Vibroacoustic technologies, such as the RLX Satori Mental Fitness lounger or Welnamis, trigger this response in a single treatment.
Evidence and ROI
For operators, the key question is not “Does this work?” But “How does this work for my business?” Metawell’s touchless technologies require little additional staff time, enabling greater throughput and efficiency.
These automated experiences can be offered as standalone treatments, bundled with traditional spa services, or integrated into personalised journeys. Guests value the accessibility and their experience remains effortless: they simply relax into the technology and allow the reset to unfold. Meanwhile operators benefit from repeatable outcomes, reduced labour challenges and stronger profitability.
Metawell’s most powerful quality is its grounding in evidence. Spa professionals and their clients want assurance that technologies are effective. By emphasising the beneficial outcomes operators can confidently position these treatments as integral parts of wellness strategies.
