Experiences at Woom are designed to engage all of one's senses for healing. The space is set up in a similar way to a yoga studio with bolsters, blocks and mats, but it is enhanced with a 4D sound system, projection walls and diffusers that release scents. A few of the varieties offered at Woom include '[Sound Dive](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacesfm)' and 'Dance of Liberation.' As a companion to the [multi-sensory experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mega-experience-center) offered, Woom also features an on-site [vegan cafe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-health-cafe) with a seasonal menu that emphasizes the use of food as medicine. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Multi-sensory Experiences:** Exploring non-ordinary states of consciousness through engaging all senses in wellness centers. - **4D Sound System:** Enhancing wellness experiences with immersive sound technology in wellness centers. - **Food as Medicine:** Using seasonal vegan menus to promote healing and wellness in wellness centers. ### Where This Applies - **Wellness Centers:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrating multi-sensory experiences and immersive sound technology in wellness centers. - **Sound Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Advancing sound systems to create immersive 4D experience in various industries. - **Vegan Food Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Emphasizing the medicinal properties of plant-based food in the wellness and healthcare industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Multi-Sensory Spa Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/111skin-and-myndstream.md) - [Immersive Wellness Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/theatre-of-digital-art.md) - [Immersive Meditative Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sage-sound.md) - [Somatic Sound Wellness](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/immersive-sound.md) - [Moody Wellness Space Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aetherhaus.md) - [Immersive Wellness Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/othership.md) - [Immersive Wellness Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jpa-design.md) - [Mental Relaxation Destinations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mind-oasis.md) - [Aquatic Sound Meditation Programs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sound-meditation.md)
