Key Points
Opening in Fall 2025, Higher Order is launching South Florida’s first day-to-night social wellness club
Founders Ryan and Brittany Brown are bringing a new model of wellness combining clinical care, social connection, and cultural programming
Located in West Palm Beach’s Flamingo Park District, the club will feature functional medicine, recovery therapies, and nightlife-inspired wellness
A new wellness concept is coming to West Palm Beach in Fall 2025—and it’s not your average gym or spa. Higher Order is building a social wellness club that blends medicine, movement, and nightlife. Designed to operate from morning recovery to late-night community, it marks a shift in how wellness is being packaged and delivered.
What’s Being Built
Higher Order will offer a 360-degree experience that transitions from healing to high energy. The club includes multiple zones:
The Sanctuary: movement and mindfulness classes like yoga, meditation, and beat-driven sessions
The Recovery Room: cold plunges, infrared saunas, and functional medicine treatments
The Alchemy Bar & Lounge: non-alcoholic cocktails, ceremonial teas, and live DJ sets
The concept combines clinical wellness (vitamin IVs, hormone therapy, lab testing) with social programming, designed in elemental aesthetics like wood, stone, and fire.
Location and Market Fit
The project is landing in West Palm Beach’s Flamingo Park District, a walkable area seeing a surge in lifestyle-focused development. Higher Order taps into a growing South Florida market hungry for holistic living and high-end wellness. The move aligns with national trends where younger and high-income consumers are prioritizing experience, health, and community over traditional amenities.
The founders, formerly of San Francisco, bring a West Coast wellness sensibility to a region quickly becoming a magnet for migration, tourism, and high-spending clientele.
Investor and Developer Insights
Higher Order reflects a larger shift toward wellness real estate, where amenity spaces double as cultural and social experiences. For landlords, brokers, and developers, the model presents several opportunities:
Wellness-as-a-service could increase foot traffic and lease value in mixed-use or residential buildings
Programming flexibility—from workshops to nightlife—provides consistent user engagement and revenue streams
Its hybrid design requires more capex upfront (for clinical-grade equipment and ambiance), but the payoff may come through brand equity and long-term retention
The club’s positioning—half spa, half social club—could serve as a blueprint for future developments looking to appeal to the health-conscious luxury demographic.
A New Category of Luxury Wellness
Higher Order isn’t just offering yoga and juice—it’s building a new category of real estate experience that blends clinical health, cultural connection, and curated social energy. As lifestyle-driven amenities become critical to differentiation in real estate, West Palm Beach may be seeing the future of what luxury wellness looks like.
