Across Portugal and the rest of Europe, the hospitality industry is shifting from traditional spa models to high-performance wellness experiences. Guests are no longer satisfied with simple massages, saunas or beauty treatments. They seek science-backed therapies that improve energy, recovery, sleep, stress levels and longevity — even during short stays.
This is where biohacking enters the hospitality world. Biohacking, once a niche movement, has become a global wellness strategy. Luxury hotels, boutique resorts and holistic retreats are now integrating biohacking equipment to differentiate themselves, increase guest satisfaction and stay relevant in an increasingly competitive market.
Portugal, known for wellness tourism and high-end hospitality, is rapidly embracing this shift — and Lumea Wellness is leading the way.
Why guests want biohacking during their stay
Modern travelers — especially wellness-oriented guests — want experiences that offer immediate, measurable benefits. Biohacking provides exactly that.
Guests now look for solutions that:
- Boost energy and reduce jet lag
- Improve sleep quality
- Enhance recovery after travel, workouts, or stress
- Support anti-aging and longevity goals
- Deliver relaxation faster than traditional treatments
- Provide a sense of exclusivity and innovation
Hotels that integrate these technologies not only meet rising expectations — they exceed them, often creating premium, high-revenue services.
The most popular biohacking technologies in Hotels
1. Red Light Therapy
Red light therapy has become one of the world’s most requested treatments due to its benefits:

Hotels are using red light therapy for:
- Wellness rooms

Lumea provides professional-grade red light systems that are safe, powerful and easy for hotels to integrate.
2. Compression Recovery
Guests love simple, relaxing treatments that deliver results in minutes. Compression therapy offers:

This is a high-ROI service because staff involvement is minimal and sessions are short, making it ideal for spas and hotel gyms.
