The story emerging from the data: continued, accelerating growth. The wellness market has doubled since 2013, and grew 7.9% from 2023 to 2024, reaching a new peak of $6.8 trillion. The market is officially beyond \u201cpandemic recovery mode\u201d: all 11 wellness sectors now exceed their 2019 values, most by significant margins. By far the fastest growing segments are wellness estate and mental wellness, expanding at 19.5% and 12.4% annually, respectively, from 2019 to 2024. The only stagnant market: workplace wellness, with global spending shrinking by 1.5% from 2023 to 2024. Every regional wellness market has experienced major growth over the last five years, with North America (7.9%), Middle East-North Africa (7.2%) and Europe (6.3%) posting the biggest annual gains.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-49608 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2100\" height=\"1620\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1.jpg 2100w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1-1024x790.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1-768x592.jpg 768w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1-1536x1185.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1-2048x1580.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/2025-GWI-Figure-1.1-600x463.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2100px) 100vw, 2100px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Wellness, A Massive Economic Force: <\/strong>Wellness ($6.8T) now surpasses other global mega-industries, including sports ($2.7T), tourism ($5T), the green economy, ($5.1T), and IT ($5.3T).

These shifts are fueling growth across all wellness sectors\u2013\u2013from wellness real estate and mental wellness to hot springs and social bathing to more sophisticated preventative medical-wellness solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 140-page report is filled with new market data, sub-sector breakdowns and future projections for all 11 wellness sectors\u2013\u2013along with regional data and the top 20 national markets for each wellness sector.

The #2 growth star: mental wellness (12.4% annually), as people face increasingly immense stresses, and because for younger generations, mental wellbeing is non-negotiable. The US mental wellness market ($125 billion) dwarfs all other countries, with China a distant second at $16 billion. Mental wellness segments with powerful annual growth these last five years were cannabis products (26%), meditation and mindfulness (18.9%), and sleep (12.6%).<\/p>\n<p>Four markets fall into the \u201cmature and steady growth sectors\u201d: personal care and beauty; healthy eating, nutrition and weight loss; physical activity; and traditional and complementary medicine, all of which experienced strong (roughly 5%) annual growth from 2019 to 2024. The tourism-based wellness sectors were hit hard by the pandemic but roared back between 2023 and 2024: wellness tourism grew 13.8%, spas 14.6%, and thermal\/mineral springs 11.1%, making them three of the four largest year-over-year gainers, along with wellness real estate. Workplace wellness stands out for its lack of growth, as more employers move away from programmatic approaches to employee wellness and the surge in remote and \u201cgig\u201d work leaves more employees without access to such benefits.<\/p>\n<p>Per capita spending on wellness is dramatically higher in North America ($6,029) and Europe ($1,876) compared to other regions like Latin America-Caribbean ($607), Asia ($471) and the Middle East-North Africa ($339).<\/p>\n<p>The report is packed with sub-sector data, from the dramatic growth of the fitness tech market, which more than doubled in the last five years to reach $86 billion, to the contraction of the weight loss services market in 2024 (-1.1%) with the boom in GLP-1s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which Wellness Markets Will Grow Fastest? <\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-49606 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"609\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4.jpg 609w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4-300x296.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4-600x591.jpg 600w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/GWI-Chart-4-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 609px) 100vw, 609px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Wellness real estate will remain the #1 growth leader (15.2% annual growth), doubling in size in the next five years, just as it did in the last five. Notable: traditional and complementary medicine is projected as the #2 future gainer (10.8% annually), not only because Ayurveda, TCM and herbal medicines are getting infused in ever more supplements\/products, but because the category includes the spawning longevity and biohacking approaches\u2013\u2013from infrared light therapy to cryotherapy to IV drips\u2013\u2013now ubiquitous in fitness\/wellness centers, spas and resorts.<\/p>\n<p>Both mental wellness (10.1%) and wellness tourism (9.1%) will see powerful annual growth. The thermal\/mineral springs market will be a future standout (10% annual growth) as hundreds of springs-based destinations are in the global investment pipeline and social bathhouses and water-based destinations are a huge global trend. Also to watch: within the \u201cpublic health, prevention and personalized medicine\u201d segment, the now $147 billion personalized medicine market is expected to see a rapid 9.3% yearly growth through 2029, as longevity-seeking consumers rush to diagnostic services and personalized health optimization.<\/p>\n<p>By 2029, six wellness sectors\u2014personal care &amp; beauty; healthy eating, nutrition, &amp; weight loss; physical activity; wellness tourism; wellness real estate; and traditional &amp; complementary medicine\u2014will exceed $1 trillion in market size.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Research Sponsors: <\/strong>This research was made possible by these leading companies: Aldar Properties PJSC, Amway, Fountain Life, Sable Investments, Therme Group, Eywa by R Evolution, Hyatt, NADclinic, Carillon Miami Wellness Resort, Technogym, amp, KOHLER, Mather, Rancho la Puerta, Six Senses and Universal Companies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Global Wellness Institute: <\/strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/globalwellnessinstitute.org\/\">Global Wellness Institute<\/a>\u00a0(GWI), a nonprofit 501(c)(3), is considered the leading global research and educational resource for the global wellness industry and is known for introducing major industry initiatives and regional events that bring together leaders to chart the future.
