Integrated wellness brand the Well has revealed plans to expand its global footprint and make its debut in Europe.

The first European location for the Well has been confirmed as Geneva, set to open in 2026.

The group will also grow its branded club, residential and hospitality concepts in 12 key markets including London, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Denver and Aspen over the next five years.

A socially driven wellness space, the Well first launched in New York City in 2019 by Sarrah Hallock, Rebecca Parekh and Kane Sarhan (pictured above), the Well currently has four locations globally. Billed as a one-stop shop for wellness, it provides a fully integrated wellness experience that blends eastern and western practices under one roof.

The Well Geneva

The first club of its kind in Geneva, the Well will be situated within a newly renovated hotel overlooking Lake Geneva.

The 2,800sqm space will include an indoor swimming pool, a state-of-the-art fitness facility and a private outdoor garden terrace. There will be social spaces, coworking areas and café service.

Programming will focus on physical recovery and cater to Switzerland’s ski culture with a dedicated ski injury clinic. There will be a membership model as well as drop-in experiences for hotel guests and local residents. Each member will be paired with a health coach.

The Well focuses on whole-person care, integrating modern medicine and ancient healing in its wellness services, classes and experiences.

Offerings vary by location but typically include healing modalities such as bodywork, massage and facials. There is also health coaching, mindful movement, Chinese medicine, acupuncture and IV vitamin therapy.
