COLD STOIC WATER IMMERSION TANK

Though it doesn’t exactly evoke images of classic spa-day bliss, cold water immersion therapy packs a panoply of benefits, from boosting circulation and reducing inflammation to jump-starting the immune system. There’s a reason athletes have long been dunking themselves in icy baths after a strenuous performance to spur the body’s natural healing process. Rather than fill your tub with ice, opt for Renu Therapy’s elegant immersion tank, featuring a waterproof bay topped with handsome natural wood. Suitable for indoor or outdoor use (users only need a 110V outlet), the tank maintains chilly waters between 39-55 degrees. $9,700

DRIFT KINETIC SAND TABLE 

An excellent conversation starter, statement centerpiece, and meditative device all wrapped in one dizzying package, this contemporary tabletop from wellness powerbrand Homedics features a metal sphere that, powered by magnetic technology, silently glides through sand to create soothing, intricate patterns. The motion is believed to offer a calming effect, boosting creativity and mindfulness while promoting R&R. Users can choose from hundreds of pre-set patterns and ambient lighting options via the corresponding app. $350

WITHINGS BODY COMP SCALE 

This innovative smart scale goes far beyond calculating weight alone to deliver a more comprehensive snapshot of overall health, providing a detailed breakdown on body composition that includes vascular age, fat and water percentage, standing heart rate, muscle and bone mass, and nerve and artery health. The sleek, Wi-Fi-con-nected device also comes with a subscription to Withing’s Health+ service, which includes personalized exercise and meal suggestions to help you advance your health and fitness goals. $210

NESS WELLNESS CREDIT CARD

From hotel status and shopping perks to airline clubs and flat-rate cash rewards, credit cards often boast a mountain of benefits, primarily in the travel and business space. This new sliver of metal from Ness is touted as the first wellness-centric credit card, offering carriers rewards that put health and well-being first. Cardmembers are treated to an array of special offers from fitness, beauty, and healthy eating nameplates like Sweetgreen, Parsley Health, Seed Health, HigherDOSE, Glamsquad, and Exhale Spa.

There’s a slate of guided meditation, breathwork, and mindful-ness training experiences to deepen the experience. $9,995+
