Aging societies, a rising incidence of lifestyle diseases and a growing middle class are fueling fresh interest in health and wellness across the Asia Pacific region.
Yet amid rising consumer expectations, many countries still suffer a shortage of doctors and facilities, leading to long waits and a rural-urban divide. Now new players—multinational, tech-savvy and consumer-minded—are stepping in with goods and services that blur the line between lifestyle and professional healthcare, with hyper-personalized regimens to boot.
