Each month, we feature Shore Local’s Top 5, highlighting the people and places that make our community thrive.
February invites us to slow down and be more intentional with our time, energy, and attention. While Valentine’s Day often focuses on romance, love takes many forms — & caring for ourselves is part of how we show up better for others. That’s why #1 on our spotlight list goes to Worlds of Wellness.
Founded by Ocean City native Monique Bottalico, Worlds of Wellness is built on experience, listening, and truly personalized care. It’s a trusted space where locals, athletes, and visitors come to reset, recover, and reconnect — without quick fixes or one-size-fits-all treatments.
“Wellness isn’t a luxury — it’s a relationship you build with yourself over time,” says Bottalico. Bottalico. “Our goal is to help people feel better in their bodies so they can live better in their lives.”
