Gharieni Group becomes official partner of FC Schalke 04

Gharieni supports the recovery & mental fitness of elite players within professional football.

The Gharieni Group GmbH, a global leader in wellness technologies, spa and medical equipment, is proud to announce its new partnership with FC Schalke 04, one of Germany’s most renowned football clubs. The collaboration brings together two strong brands united by a shared commitment to excellence, performance, and innovation.

As part of the partnership, Gharieni will equip Schalke’s elite performance center with five of its premium RLR relaxation loungers. These ergonomically shaped, softly upholstered loungers are designed to support optimal recovery after intense training sessions. Additionally, the club’s facility will feature the group’s Metawell RLX BrainGym, a zero-gravity mental fitness lounger that uses evidence-based technology to synchronize body and mind-enhancing focus, mental resilience and supporting optimal performance.

Johnny Gorter, Sales Director & Procurist at Gharieni Group, comments: “FC Schalke 04 is a club with tremendous heritage, passion, and performance culture. We are delighted about this partnership and the opportunity to integrate our expertise in recovery, longevity, and mental fitness into the club’s training environment. At Gharieni, we believe that true performance begins with recovery — and this collaboration allows us to demonstrate that philosophy at the highest level of sport.”

Dominik Durben, Director of Sales & Marketing at FC Schalke 04, adds: “The Gharieni Group stands for innovation, precision, and professionalism. We are gaining an ambitious partner that, just like Schalke, sets the highest standards in performance, reliability, and continuous development. Especially in the area of recovery, this collaboration will create real added value for our players.”

The partnership marks the beginning of a shared journey that bridges elite sports and cutting-edge wellness technology.

Gharieni’s Metawell rebrands RLX Satori as mental fitness lounger RLX BrainGym

Gharieni Group’s Metawell division for touchless treatment technology has rebranded its touchless vibroacoustic RLX Lounger, which will now be known as the RLX BrainGym.

The new name gives a clearer indication of the product’s technology and capabilities. 

“RLX BrainGym reflects where the world – and our industry – is going,” says Sammy Gharieni, CEO and founder, Gharieni Group. “Mental fitness is no longer optional; it’s a core pillar of wellbeing. We’re creating the tools to make it accessible, measurable and truly transformative.”

According to the group, the market has shifted and wellness is evolving from “feel good” experiences to functional, measurable outcomes. The rebrand now advertises what the group says the RLX BrainGym offers – evidence-based mental fitness programmes and a deep neural reset.

The lounger continues to provide a science-driven technology that assists with emotional regulation and mental performance. The system continues to offer 40 programmes that span meditation, sleep, stress regulation and emotional balance.

While the functionality, programme architecture and technology remain the same, the software interface has been updated to support the product’s new identity. 

The lounger is also now available in a larger selection of colours, materials and finishes.

Longevity through recovery
Longevity has fast become the ultimate aspiration in wellness. But living longer is only meaningful if we can live better. That’s why recovery is no longer a side note, it’s the foundation of a long, vital life. True resilience comes from giving the body and mind the space to restore, repair and renew.

Metawell is a portfolio of ten wellness technologies designed to address the growing demand for results-driven wellbeing and outcomes that are transformative, even after just one treatment.

From reducing inflammation and detoxification, to rebalancing the nervous system and supporting outcomes such as better sleep, these touchless, hybrid and evidence-based experiences provide a re-set that supports not just today’s wellbeing, but also tomorrow’s vitality.

Guests can experience the anti-inflammatory and detoxifying power of the MLX i3Dome far-infrared dome, the circulatory and lymphatic benefits of G-Vac’s intermittent Vacuum Therapy, or a profound mental reset through the powerful binaural-vibroacoustic technology behind Welnamis and the RLX Satori Mental Fitness Lounger, which activate the parasympathetic state in just 22 minutes.

Each modality is effortless, consistent, and designed to help people not only feel better, but also age better.

For operators, the question isn’t just “Does it work?” but “How does it work in my business?” Metawell answers both: its touchless technologies require no extra staffing, making them simple to run, easy to scale and highly profitable — all while meeting the rising demand for results-driven wellness.

Longevity isn’t about adding time at the end of life, it’s about living with clarity, energy and vitality every day. With Metawell, spas and wellness environments can offer recovery that restores the mind-body connection today and safeguards tomorrow.

Gharieni’s SpaFusion Flow redefines the treatment table
Forget what you thought you knew about spa beds with built-in pedicure tubs – Gharieni’s SpaFusion Flow raises the bar entirely.

As the first model in the new SpaFusion series, it reinvents the category with smarter engineering, seamless transitions, and next-level comfort for both guest and therapist.

A fully convertible spa table that doubles as a pedicure station, SpaFusion Flow combines luxury aesthetics with clever ergonomics. The removable insert reveals a sleek, built-in foot tub – no need to shuffle guests between rooms or compromise on ambiance.

From massages and facials to manicures, pedicures, and body rituals, it’s designed to do it all, with style and substance.

Highlights include:

• Heated upholstery throughout, including the footrest – a market first

• Ergonomic pedicure tub - with pipeless massage and handheld sprayer. No bulky base between the therapist’s legs, allowing close, comfortable positioning when working at the client’s feet

• Ultra-low ADA-compliant access (48cm/19 in)

• Adjustable backrest and seating angles, U-shaped face cradle, and swivel/removable armrests

• Fully customizable upholstery and base to suit your spa’s signature look

It’s not just multifunctional – it’s masterfully integrated.

And there’s more to come. The SpaFusion series will soon expand with a dedicated treatment bed and a surprise third release that’s still under wraps.

With SpaFusion Flow, Gharieni perfects the multifunction trend says Sammy Gharieni, founder & CEO, Gharieni Group, adding: “SpaFusion Flow was designed to streamline the workflow, enhance comfort and make each step feel effortless. Every detail helps deliver a better experience for everyone."

Craft amplified wellness journeys with Gharieni Group’s Metawell mind-body technology
Delivering impactful evidence-based wellness benefits is no longer optional in the spa and wellness space – it’s essential.

Traditional massages, typically lasting 50 to 90 minutes, ensure relaxation and tangible wellness outcomes. But as demands for time efficiency grow, integrating advanced wellness technologies can enhance these results in significantly shorter sessions.

By leveraging principles from traditional therapies, these innovations not only speed up treatment times but also intensify the benefits.

Accelerated results
Metawell’s mind-body technologies revolutionise wellness by delivering anti-inflammatory effects, improving mental fitness, promoting detox and lymph drainage, enhancing sleep and aiding recovery – all in a fraction of the time.

This is particularly appealing to time-starved customers and allows for flexible treatment options across various wellness settings, from day spas to fitness clubs, and even medical and resort destinations.

“Metawell’s Mind/Body technologies are paving the way for the acceleration and amplification of wellness through the innovation of wellness services and experiences – a major value proposition up and down the wellness delivery pipeline,” comments Sammy Gharieni, founder and CEO of Gharieni Group (Metawell’s parent company).

Amplified wellness
These technologies can be seamlessly integrated as standalone treatments with minimal contact or combined with existing spa services to amplify the overall experience. For wellness businesses, this means higher value offerings for clients and increased ROI for owners/operators.

The uniformity of tech-based treatments also ensures consistent quality and reduces therapist fatigue, a critical factor in managing staffing challenges.
