Expert guide to treatment couches: Gharieni Group

Gharieni Group

An international leader in wellness technology, Gharieni Group is a German-based manufacturer of high-end spa furniture and medical equipment, with products sold in more than 120 countries

What makes Gharieni Group unique in the spa market?

Our product segmentation has evolved considerably over the years. What many people don’t know is that Gharieni started out manufacturing treatment beds for the medical industry. As the spa industry evolved, Gharieni’s medical treatment beds also underwent a transformation. The distinctive elements that made them so sought after in medicine gradually transformed into our premium spa and wellness beds.

Today, both the comfort of the guest and the ergonomic needs of the service provider shape our design. Around eight years ago, we embarked on a significant shift that has become one of the industry’s great disruptions. We pioneered the integration of advanced mind-body wellness technologies into treatment beds, establishing ourselves as thoughtleaders in this segment.

From far infrared and binaural vibroacoustics to haptic technologies and cutting-edge augmented reality, Gharieni is now leading the pack in the creation and execution of the hybrid spa and wellness experience. Our product range is founded on evidence-based benefits that deliver a multi-layered value proposition to the end consumer, resulting in great ROI for owners and operators.

How do your products help to enhance the overall guest experience?

High-tech, high-touch is here to stay. Gharieni harnesses the power of technology to accelerate, enhance and augment the touch experience, while always preserving the essential human element of wellness.

Our treatment bed technologies enable spas to provide personalised, efficient and immersive experiences.

By blending technology with human expertise, spas can create those vital transformative moments; it’s these that leave a lasting impression, fostering guest loyalty and satisfaction. Our approach empowers spas to improve their existing offerings and revolutionise their menus, all while staying true to their USP. We prioritise evidence-based wellness benefits over quick fixes or bio-hacks. Our products range from the MLX i³Dome, featuring far infrared technology for detox and sports recovery to the RLX Satori Wellness Lounger, which harnesses targeted vibroacoustics to support behavioural change through

brain entrainment. The immersive MLX Quartz experience enhances the immune system, induces deep relaxation and alleviates pain, while Welnamis synchronises the body with an effect similar to meditation.

What trends do you see shaping the future of spa treatment delivery?

As we all know, the acceleration of AI in every sphere of life is set to dramatically impact everything from the built environment, spa programming and operations to the guest experience. We must remember when designing products and services going forwards the need to consider the best use of this new technology in reality. AI will continue to morph and accelerate the way in which the end consumer will experience wellness. To keep pace with these changes we must be nimble, designing products and offerings that have flexibility and high rates of adaptability.

Gharieni’s pipeline is increasingly set up to meet this need. The ability to continuously innovate is deeply embedded in our DNA and will continue to be part of what drives our business as we create new products and experiences that serve guests while addressing the very bespoke needs of our clients.
