Defined as the state of being in good health as an actively pursued goal, the concept of wellness has grown in recent years, with a huge emphasis being in the home. We’ve gone from at home pools, gyms and saunas, right the way to a new world of devices such as hyperbaric oxygen chambers, light therapy panels and sunlight rooms. According to the National Centre for Atmospheric Science, we now spend nearly 90% of our time indoors. This eye-opening figure cements that at-home wellness has never been more of a focal point than it is now. In fact, some would say it’s instrumental to modern living. More and more people are turning to holistic wellbeing and there is now the possibility to create the same ambient wellness spaces at home that could, once-upon-a-time, only be found in the world’s most exclusive health clubs and retreats.

The last six years have seen a sharp increase in the amount of time we spend at home, so why wouldn’t we make it as close to a sanctuary as we possibly can? Anything and everything from the walls that surround us, to the surfaces we encounter and the equipment we install in our home gym, plays a part in how we feel. You may be surprised and somewhat sceptical to read this, however, science backs it up and many of the world’s most prominent figures in the worlds of sports, media and entertainment are seeking to ensure their space is cloaked in wellness.
Renowned leader in interior design and Home Therapist Michelle Ogundehin is so passionate about creating a healthy home, that she has even collaborated with Graphenstone, the world’s most certified green brand, providing paints that don’t destroy air quality and, can even enhance it. Michelle’s signature method of working is ‘Home Therapy: Creating a Home That Heals’ and she discusses it further in the interview we feature on here.
The world is so much busier than it was once upon a time and there is a collective longing to retreat in to a wonderful bubble of calm when we return home. It’s a longing to be surrounded by all the things that contribute to a calm nervous system, a clear mind and a bolstered immune system. We now have access to a wealth of knowledge that empowers us to make healthier choices and balances out life’s stressors.

Once upon a time, if you wanted to spend the day at a spa, indulge in a sauna session or enhance cellular health with some LED light therapy, you’d have no choice but to visit your preferred members club. Now though, there are countless companies manufacturing a multitude of at-home wellness tools fit for the world’s finest facilities. Pure Wellness Co provide high-quality wellness solutions for both commercial and residential spaces.
Dry Flotation Therapy
Traditional flotation therapies have existed for a while now, but dry flotation therapy is a recent wellness addition that offers a more convenient option without the need to get wet. Lying on a flotation bed provides support to the body that leads to benefits such as nervous system relaxation, recovery support and muscle tension relief.
LED Light Therapy
At home LED face masks and even those that wrap around the scalp are not hard to come by, but discerning home owners are increasingly turning to professional-grade machines that provide enhanced results. The benefits are huge; a boost to energy and circulation, assistance with muscle recovery and better skin health to name a few. Different colour lights and wavelengths provide different benefits, but on a whole, LED light therapy, particularly full bodied treatment, is beneficial to health in many ways.

“We are seeing a significant rise in demand for at-home wellness spaces, particularly in the premium residential market. Homeowners are increasingly looking to integrate facilities such as saunas, steam rooms, cold plunges and advanced light therapy systems into their properties, not only for lifestyle and wellbeing benefits, but also to enhance the overall value and appeal of the home. What was once considered a luxury reserved for high-end spas and hotels is now becoming a key feature in modern residential design. Clients are prioritising recovery, relaxation and long-term health, and are investing in high-quality, commercial-grade equipment to bring that experience into their own homes.” – Todd Durrell, Founder of Pure Wellness Co
Sauna
One of the wellness tools that’s been around the longest, the sauna has ample health benefits and adds an element of relaxation to every wellness routine. The Far Infra-Red Sauna however, is slightly newer to the circuit, providing arguably more enhanced results to the traditional sauna, all with lower heat. Whichever avenue you choose, the health optimisation that comes from sauna usage is long proven.
Graphenstone
Graphenstone is a brand of breathable, mineral-based paint that purifies the air inside your home by absorbing CO2 as it cures. Gone are the days of escaping your home while the decorators are in – this is paint that quite literally cleans the air, all with virtually no smell. This, combined with the fact it’s manufactured using renewable energy, puts this in the category of eco-paints. What’s not to love?

Whole Home Water Filtration
Back in the 90s, a Brita water filter was seen as a symbol of advanced knowledge when it came to health. Fast forward to 2026 and things have moved on to say the least. Now, it’s possible to purify pretty much every bit of water in your home from the taps to the showers. Whole home filtration systems have numerous benefits, from cleaner tap water (thanks to the elimination of several contaminants) to healthier hair and skin.
Somavedic
The Somavedic devices naturally assist in restructuring water and harmonizing EMFs. The latter has become more important than ever in a world where wireless technology is often found in every corner, and Somavedic devices assist in mitigating the negative health effects that come with this.
What was once considered a luxury addition in a home has now become an integral part of modern living. Today’s homeowner is no longer simply investing in square footage or location, but in a lifestyle that prioritises balance, longevity and everyday wellbeing. With thoughtfully designed spaces that invite calm and restoration, wellness is now firmly embedded in the fabric of the home; not a passing trend, but a lasting expectation.
