PHUKET, Thailand and MIAMI, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Global Wellness Institute (GWI) today released its Global Wellness Economy Monitor 2026, providing all new data, insights and future projections for the global wellness market and for each of its 11 sectors. If the wellness market has surged since the pandemic, the new research shows that its growth is only accelerating. The wellness economy grew 8.9% from 2024 to 2025, reaching a new peak of $7.5 trillion. It's on a trajectory to reach $8.2 trillion by year-end 2026 and approach $11 trillion by 2030. Worldwide, people are spending 2.2 times more on wellness than they were in 2013, when GWI first measured the market.

Ten of 11 wellness sectors (excluding workplace wellness) clocked impressive gains since 2019 and also year-over-year. The explosive growth leaders are wellness real estate—which is an astounding 3.5 times larger market than in 2019—and mental wellness, which nearly doubled during the same time. The biggest YoY gainers (2024-2025) are: 1) wellness real estate (23.2%), spas (12.8%), wellness tourism (11.4%) and mental wellness (11%).
