Wellness as a holistic lifestyle
How we live, eat and work, the way we play, travel and maintain our vitality, our methods for dealing with stress and our response to illnesses: wellness has long since moved beyond being a feel-good programme – today it is part of an active and healthy experiential lifestyle. At FIBO 2020, new concepts and ideas for this trend are at home in Hall 8, where studio operators, physiotherapists, spas, hoteliers and occupational health management executives can discover how to align their business models at the interface between fitness, wellness and health so that they will be fit for the future.
