NYC is full of some pretty incredible speakeasies, but sometimes we’d like to swap out the tequila for something a bit more *healthy,* and this wellness speakeasy is making that possible.

Dubbed as a “social wellness” space, NYC’s Elahni is the first of its kind in the city.

Combining wellness with socialization, the space features signature Temperature Contrast sessions, an ancient Nordic practice that involves an intentional journey between deliberate heat and cold exposure. During the sessions members are guided through three alternating rounds of 185º Finnish sauna heat and 40º ice baths.

Co-founded by Keane Tan and Nick Rizk, Elahni sets the tone for an intimate experience that challenges traditional social norms around nightlife. How do they do that, you ask? Well, with their Adaptogenic Tonic Bar.

Here, guests can savor a range of wellness options that have been mindfully curated to provide intentional end states, such as “energized,” “ready to mingle,” and “grounded.” Contrary to your typical speakeasy, which mostly emphasize alcohol, the Adaptogenic Tonic Bar not only promotes healthier socializing but also nourishes the body and nurtures the mind.

Through the bar Elahni is able to set itself apart from traditional wellness centers and bathhouses and instead introduce a unique offering where members are encouraged to meet and connect in an intimate environment.

Tan and Rizk stated:

Elahni goes beyond just a relax-and-recharge option, it’s a place where wellness and social life
cohabitate.

At Elahni, Tan and Rizk are reimagining wellness and redefining the standards of socializing within the buzzing city lifestyle.
