Saks Fifth Avenue's flagship store in Manhattan has become, at least temporarily, a wellness paradise.
The store has dedicated an entire floor to athleisure-focused shops and offerings like workout classes, salt rooms, and even vitamin guru services. This collection of shops make up The Wellery, which will be open at Saks through October.
During your shopping experience, you can get your nails or eyebrows done, take an intense workout class, or find products that are tailored to a health-centric lifestyle. The opening is meant to fit in with shoppers' interests today — athleisure is now a $45.9 billion market, and self-care is a growing trend.
We got to visit in the hours before the store opened. Take a look at the options below.

The Wellery takes up more than 16,000 square feet of space on Saks Fifth Avenue's second floor.
One of the most intense activities at The Wellery is a prison-style boot camp run by the boutique fitness studio ConBody. The studio's founder, Coss Marte, developed the classes during his time in prison. The $30 classes include resistance exercises using body weight and are taught by formerly incarcerated trainers.
On a more relaxing note, the Breathe Salt Rooms provide a holistic treatment that claim to have a healing and detoxifying effect on respiratory conditions and the skin. Ten-minute sessions inside the room are $25 each.
