In 2005, Korn<\/a> founding member Brian \u201cHead\u201d Welch was in a dark place. He was worn out from years of touring, and struggling with addiction, depression and suicidal thoughts. He left the band and went through a long period of recovery, which was documented in the Showtime documentary Loud Krazy Love<\/a>.<\/em> He re-joined Korn in 2013.<\/p>\n

Now, Welch is trying to help others going through similar struggles. Wednesday, he launched Zivel, a performance and recovery suite \u201cin the interest of helping people function at their best.\u201d The facility was inspired by the constant fatigue touring musicians experience and will focus \u201con physical, mental, and emotional well-being,\u201d according to a statement. The spa-like center has opened its first locations<\/a> in Bakersfield, California, and Nashville, Tennessee, with more openings planned.<\/p>\n

\u201cI consider myself extremely blessed to have been made whole \u2014 body, mind and spirit \u2014 and I\u2019ve devoted my life to help others find the healing they deserve,\u201d Welch said in a statement. \u201cThe most exciting thing for me about Zivel is that our services can help revitalize every part of a person\u2019s life \u2014 body, mind and spirit \u2014 which again, is what I feel is my life\u2019s purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n

Welch formed the facility with Dr. Matt O\u2019Neill, a physical therapist who started working for Korn in 2017. O\u2019Neill saw the toll that touring takes on the body and introduced Welch to treatments that include saltwater floating, in which patients get into a saltwater-filled tank in an effort to relieve stress. Saltwater floating will be one of Zivel\u2019s services; others include \u201cCryotherapy, infrared sauna, oxygen therapy, and compression therapy,\u201d a statement reads.<\/p>\n

Zivel plans to expand in 2020, with locations in Melbourne, Florida, Macon, Georgia, Houston, Texas, Kearney, Nebraska, and Arizona. \u201cOur goal is to open locations in every state, and eventually around the world to help people young and old. Because ZIVEL is more than just another spa offering, it is a way of life, where we truly believe that everyone should be treated and feel like a rockstar,\u201d the duo said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Korn just announced a big summer tour<\/a> with Faith No More, beginning August 7th in Denver, Colorado.<\/p>\n
