It’s a new year, and to make 2024 the healthiest for you yet—both physically and mentally—here are some of the top health and wellness spots in Philadelphia to get some me-time and start the new year off right.
Lumos Yoga & Barre
Later this month, Lumos will open its third location in the city (at 835-837 Corinthian Ave.), and in 2024, Philadelphians can take advantage of everything the new locale has to offer. The studio will exclusively offer pilates, spanning a few different styles like mat pilates and group reformer pilates, and other styles in the future to be added.
As the release notes, the all-levels-welcome, body-positive studio, Lumos (which is related to the Latin word for “light”) encourages people to feel vibrant and to be luminous. The Corinthian Street location comes one year after the Parrish Street location opened, and several months shy of Lumos’ sixth anniversary at its first Green Street location.

Reset by Therabody
What Reset offers is the option to recover like an athlete, even if you aren’t suiting up for a big game. With amenities normally only offered to the elite (although in the past few years they’ve been expanding their product offerings online), Reset by Therabody’s whole philosophy is that the power to heal ourselves is built into our biology — they just have the tools ready for us that will help speed along this process.
There’s a lymphatic massage, Theragun massage, PEMF therapy, cryotherapy, sound therapy, light therapy, Therabody retail, IV drips, enhancement boosters and more. Philadelphians can also buy specific packages that offer two or more services plus one of Reset’s products, like their Recover CBD Lotion or CBD Sleep Tincture.
Visitors can schedule a Theragun massage (using the percussive device, the Theragun, that Therabody is most known for) for $40 for 15 minutes, or Cryotherapy for $40 for 10 minutes, plus PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field therapy), Sound Therapy and more at around the same price range.

Let’s face it, sometimes the beauty industry and trying to juggle looking your best with self-care and taking time for yourself can be a challenge. Heyday wants to help, and they do so with a knowledgeable group of experts, affordable prices and accessibility to the best products on the market.
Heyday utilizes its top-of-the-line resources to give each and every person individualized care and personalized tips on how to get your skin to reach its full potential.

Joseph Anthony Retreat Spa
Joseph Anthony has everything you need and more when it comes to services and experiences. In fact, the facilities are so extensive, that they take up the entire fifth floor of the Loews boasting over 15,000 square feet. In addition to the signature a la carte services (including hair, face and body treatments) there have been some fairly new treatments added in recent years like the Hydrafacial and Soft Pack Dry Float.
The former deeply cleanses, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates the skin utilizing super serums filled with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. The latter, on the other hand, features a wrap treatment and float on the soft pack system in a pressure-free cushion of water. The Dry Float is so effective, that it’s said to have the same results as a few hour’s worth of sleep or of a normal massage experience in less than half of the time.
While “floating” guests will also receive a body scrub, scalp and facial massage, and a light application of cream or oil to their body to calm their mind and soothe their spirit. The atmosphere—which utilizes dim lights, and peaceful music followed by a warm shower—just sinks all of that ideology in more for visitors.
