AI is Revolutionizing Wellness: How Smart Technology is Transforming Fitness, Skincare, and Mental Well-Being
AI is changing the way we approach life. 80% of Americans are now using AI products on a regular basis—and nearly one quarter of Americans wear AI-centered wellness devices to track their daily health data, giving consumers more transparency and frankly, power in overseeing their own daily health & wellness habits and progress.
So, how is AI impacting wellness, and what can we expect to see this year ahead? From skincare technology that provides instantaneous assessments of facial skin quality, to AI-powered gym equipment, shifts in this industry are happening faster than ever—and, at the helm is Tammy Pahel, vice president of spa & wellness operations at Carillon Miami Wellness Resort, a property that boasts over $3 million in tech-forward services and has quickly become the leader in innovative wellness. See below for three insights as predicted by her:
1. AI-centered gym equipment will become the norm. Just as smart devices have transformed our daily lives, AI is revolutionizing workouts. Long gone will be the days without smart machines as more AI-driven equipment, such as Technogym, emerge. Think: AI-designed workouts that equipment that tracks your movement to optimize your motions and results—and more joint-friendly programs with adjusting resistance bands.
2. In wellness, data driven scans are here to stay. From AI-driven body scans that will impact workout planning (i.e., scanning body fat and muscle mass), to even scanning the health of the skin on your face—every aspect of wellness will soon start with AI, and be used throughout the process to track results. For example, Carillon Miami provides a face skincare scan in its lobby via The Skincare Concierge by Skin Authority–this analyzes skin quality in real-time and even suggests a personalized regimen to improve skin health as based on results.
3. AI will go beyond the physical and be used to bolster mental wellness, too. A ripple effect of having a better understanding of one’s health from the above—and seeing results, is that it boosts one’s mental wellness. What’s more—technologies like Somadome at Carillon Miami combines color, sound, and energy therapies to create the physical space to go within and experience the many benefits of deep meditation. Expect for more of mental wellness-enhancing technologies to emerge.
