Named the best wellness clinic in the world, SHA Wellness elevates beauty and well-being
Located in the Sierra Helada Natural Park, overlooking the Mediterranean coast, SHA Wellness Clinic has become a global leader in the enhancement of health and well-being through the provision of luxury experiences.
What began as a transformative personal journey for the Clinic’s founder, Alfredo Bataller Parietti, has become a worldwide health & wellness reference where excellence, scientific rigor, innovation, beauty and attention to detail, explain why more than half of guests repeat the experience.
Nearly 70,000 people from all continents, cultures, religions and ages—including heads of state, royalty, artists, athletes, models, businessmen and women, musicians, etc.—have entrusted their health to the specialists at SHA Wellness Clinic. Among those who publicly declare their loyalty to the project are Barbra Streisand, Donna Karan, Naomi Campbell, Kylie Minogue, and Monica Bellucci.
SHA Wellness Clinic’s current portfolio of treatments and therapies is one of the most comprehensive in the luxury wellness sector. Its range of services defines the standards of well-being and well-ageing medicine, understood as a way of life in which beauty is the result of harmony and balance between body and mind. We rely on advanced medical and dermo-aesthetic technologies that are minimally invasive and backed by solid scientific evidence, in combination with ancient treatments from Eastern medicine.
SHA Wellness Clinic’s portfolio of services includes the THERMAGE FLX elite radiofrequency treatment, which focuses on the fibroblast located deep within the dermis. Energy penetrates in a deep, uniform and precise way to more effectively stimulate collagen and elastin production. The results are natural and long lasting, requiring only a single session per year. It is an ideal treatment for those seeking a non-surgical and minimally invasive solution that improves the appearance of the body and face, and is highly recommended for women experiencing perimenopause or menopause, phases characterised by a noticeable decrease in collagen.
In dermocosmetics, we have incorporated the Advanced Bespoke Facial, a process that combines electrostimulation with Biologique Recherche products. This pairing oxygenates and revitalises the skin by stimulating the cells of the epidermis. It also reshapes the face, neck, and décolleté, reduces the appearance of dark circles, and tones the eyelids. This results in a veritable lifting effect that appears 100% natural.
We also offer the EMFACE Submentun treatment, the definitive, non-invasive solution to correct the double chin through the local application of EMFACE technology. A well-defined, taut facial oval is one of the defining features of a young face. Nearly 80% of people perceive sagging in the chin area as a sign of ageing they would like to correct.
Also in dermocosmetics, we use the very successful VELA SHAPE treatment, a procedure that combines radiofrequency and infrared rays to reduce localised fat deposits, and ICOONE therapy, which releases 1,180 micro simulations in specific areas of the skin to reduce fluid retention and combat cellulite.
SHA Wellness Clinic’s dental cleaning and aesthetic techniques rely on Japanese prophylaxis technology combined with ozone therapy, which is among the most cutting-edge and least invasive processes in modern dentistry.
Recently added to the range of treatments is Intermittent Hypoxia therapy, a well-ageing treatment backed by research associated with the 2019 Nobel Prize in Medicine that benefits every inch of the body, promotes greater muscle activity and efficiency, and improves cellular capacity for increased energy.
Another successful treatment is NAD & Mito-Rebalancing, a comprehensive well-ageing therapy that improves cardiometabolic health, reduces chronic inflammation, and combats cognitive decline.
SHA Wellness Clinic is also a place of serenity and tranquillity. We combine the latest science and ancient therapies with massage and relaxation techniques, yoga, nature walks, and breathing exercises.
In 2008, SHA Wellness Clinic created a transformative method that blends traditional Eastern medicine with the most advanced breakthroughs in Western medicine. One of the method’s most powerful therapeutic tools is nutrition, successfully tested over the last 15 years, during which time SHA Wellness Clinic has become a true laboratory of healthy cuisine, featuring unique recipes capable of satisfying the most demanding palates and enhancing nutritional balance to optimise good health. Learning and incorporating the principles of SHA nutrition into daily life is one of the most vital lessons offered at SHA.
SHA Wellness Clinic was named the best wellness clinic in the world in the latest edition of the World Spa Awards. It has received more than 100 international recognitions, the most recent being the Live your Best Life, awarded in 2024 by Condé Nast Traveller.
Lastly, SHA has been a standard-bearer in sustainability practically since day one. Its drive to innovate and use clean energy in order to protect the environment has been endorsed by the Green Globe Certificate.
SHA Wellness Clinic has recently announced the launch of SHA Residences Emirates, developed in partnership with IMKAN, an Abu Dhabi-based real estate developer.
