Introducing Dr. Marc Cohen – 2025 Spa and Wellness Industry Champion

Fresh from being awarded the 2025 Spa and Wellness Industry Champion, Dr. Marc Cohen continues to redefine global wellness through science, nature, and ancient wisdom. Known as one of Australia’s true pioneers of integrative and holistic medicine, Dr. Marc bridges the gap between evidence-based healthcare and traditional wellness practices, helping people unlock their body’s natural potential for healing and balance.

With over 30 years of experience in medicine, research, and education, Dr. Marc has guided thousands toward better health through his unique philosophy — The 5 B’s of Wellness. This practical framework offers a complete guide to detoxification, vitality, and longevity — all centered around Bladder, Bowel, Breath, Body, and Brain.

The 5 B’s of Wellness Explained

1. Bladder – Filter and FlushYour bladder is your body’s filtration system. Through hydration, herbal tonics, and mindful cleansing rituals, Dr. Marc teaches how to support this vital organ’s function to eliminate toxins and enhance cellular regeneration.
2. Bowel – Feast and FastDigestive health is at the heart of overall well-being. Alternating between mindful nourishment and strategic fasting, the bowel becomes a central focus for balance — allowing the gut to reset, absorb, and restore vitality.
3. Breath – Pant and HoldBreath is the bridge between mind and body. Dr. Marc’s breathwork practices combine traditional pranayama with modern physiological insights, helping participants enhance oxygenation, focus, and emotional stability.
4. Body – Hot and ColdThe physical body thrives under change. Alternating between heat and cold exposure — saunas, hydrotherapy, and mindful movement — Dr. Marc demonstrates how to awaken circulation, immunity, and resilience through temperature contrast and mindful activity.
5. Brain – Do Everything and Actively Do NothingIn our overstimulated world, true intelligence lies in stillness. Dr. Marc’s brain practices emphasize presence, meditation, and “active non-doing” — an invitation to clear mental clutter and access flow states.
