Redefining Wellness: Relaxacare’s Vision for an Inclusive Health and Wellness Industry

The wellness industry has been undergoing a seismic shift, with cutting-edge technology increasingly becoming integral to home wellness solutions. From high-tech fitness equipment that tracks our every move to sophisticated wellness apps that offer personalized health advice, technology is dramatically changing the landscape of personal health and well-being.

However, as these advancements continue to accelerate, a significant challenge emerges – how to make these innovative tools accessible and affordable for a broad audience. It’s an issue that requires careful navigation between technological sophistication and financial inclusivity.

It’s also a mission that Jason Perricone has been pursuing with his venture, Relaxacare. When he founded the company, Perricone’s overarching vision went beyond delivering top-notch products; it reflected a glaring gap he spotted in the wellness market while battling chronic Lyme disease.

Perricone reveals that, after diagnosis, he had to do all the research himself. A lack of empathy, a gap in reliable wellness products, an absence of communication with people who are in need of these products – these were the shortcomings he quickly identified and decided to correct.

“Millions suffer from chronic conditions around the world, yet most of us are either met with a lack of understanding, a lack of empathy, or we don’t always have access to reliable wellness solutions,” Perricone shares. “It’s not that the market isn’t already crowded – it is. But, in the quest to find something that would work for me, I realized very few solutions could cater to my distinct needs.”

Thus, Relaxacare was born. From state-of-the-art massage chairs—including the groundbreaking 3D and 4D chairs that add further motion and intensify massage experiences—and red light therapy to saunas and fitness equipment, among other things, Relaxacare appears to have struck that delicate balance between innovation and reliability.

But where does that leave accessibility, or, rather, affordability?

Perricone maintains that he is keenly aware of the varying budget options that his customers have at their disposal. He emphasizes that, when dealing with customers who suffer from health issues or disabilities, it’s crucial to understand what they truly need and tailor one’s services accordingly. However, many businesses don’t adopt such an approach.

“Some businesses might see a customer’s health issue as an opportunity to sell an expensive product, but our approach is different,” he states. “We focus on getting them the right chair for their needs and budget, so if their budget is, for example, $5000, we’ll work within that range to find the perfect solution for them.”

Yet, Relaxacare doesn’t just stop at adapting to the customers’ budgets. It also provides flexible financing options through companies like Paybright and Medicard. These allow people to spread the cost of their purchases into manageable monthly payments, making wellness items more accessible and affordable.

“Our goal with the financing option is to ensure financial constraints don’t prevent people from accessing the products they need,” Perricone explains. “We hope that this way, we can reach as many people as possible and help them on their wellness journeys.”

Relaxacare’s approach has far-reaching implications for the industry. By making wellness technology more accessible, it can reach a wider audience, thus potentially improving the health of a larger portion of the population.

Moreover, by remaining committed to quality, innovation, sustainability, and transparency, Relaxacare has set a brand-new standard that prioritizes the well-being and happiness of the people it serves instead of focusing on profit margins.

As Perricone says, “My team and I will remain dedicated to providing an empowering space for people to prioritize their well-being. I’m proud that we can be part of a positive change in the industry, and I hope we can lead to a future where no one has to face the challenges I did when seeking reliable wellness products.”
