SHA Spain

SHA Wellness Clinic is a medical wellness facility, not a spa. The clinic integrates Western medicine with complementary Eastern therapies under the supervision of medical specialists. Each program begins with comprehensive diagnostics including body composition analysis and medical assessments. Treatments are prescribed based on individual health data rather than general wellness packages. The facility focuses on measurable health outcomes (metabolic function, cellular health, and chronic condition management). SHA programs are designed to create lasting physiological changes.

First-time guests at SHA are required to book a health program. The clinic operates on an integrated treatment model where results come from coordinated medical oversight, nutrition planning, and therapeutic interventions. For guests seeking flexibility, SHA offers a "Stay Your Way" program that allows control over daily scheduling while still including medical consultations, prescribed meals, and facility access.

SHA's programs typically run 7-14 nights, and there are options for certain programs with 4 nights only. A 7-night stay provides time for initial detoxification and physiological adjustment. Guests frequently report improvements in sleep quality, energy levels, and mental clarity within the first week. For more complex health objectives (metabolic optimization, significant weight management, or chronic condition treatment), it is recommended to choose programs with durations between 10 and 14 days. Many guests return annually for follow-up programs.

Short answer: SHA food is delicious! SHA's menus are based on macrobiotic principles and prescribed according to each guest's health program. Meals are prepared by specialized chefs using mostly organic, locally sourced ingredients. The cuisine is designed to support detoxification, cellular function, and metabolic health while remaining satisfying. There are 3 menus typically, one with a calorie restriction, another one with less calorie restriction, and one without restriction. The clinic offers cooking classes for guests who want to learn the techniques at home.

Yes, absolutely! SHA specializes in medical wellness programs for specific health objectives. For example, the Advanced Longevity program includes genetic testing, biomarker analysis, and protocols focused on cellular health and biological aging. Weight management programs run 7-21 days and combine medical supervision, metabolic testing, and nutritional intervention. For stress-related conditions, SHA uses a combination of medical therapies, Eastern modalities, and cognitive techniques. Over the years, SHA developed dedicated programs and packages specifically designed for conditions including insomnia, metabolic dysfunction, and tobacco cessation. Treatment outcomes are monitored through medical assessments and follow-up protocols.

SHA is incredibly well designed for executive group experiences, in particular with the latest Villa Alma, opened very recently, just across the street of the main entrance of SHA. It offers 5 rooms, a private spa area, plenty of indoor and outdoor space, including a beautiful garden. SHA’s Villa Alma is the ultimate comfort and privacy. This is something which is quite rare in the medical wellness universe: Palazzo Fiuggi’s Villa Luisa is an equivalent, and the Presidential Suite at Buff Medical Resort as well, but these are the only structures designed for ultimate privacy of executive groups, with world-class health optimisation. More and more health-focused founders and investors take their executive team for a health and performance optimisation stay in such exceptional facilities.

No. Every health programme at SHA is residential, including the flexible "Stay Your Way" option. The stay is an integral part of the SHA Method: living on site is what allows the medical and therapeutic teams to follow your progress day by day, coordinate treatments and keep every element of the programme working together. SHA does not arrange non residential programmes with daily attendance only, so arriving each morning and leaving each evening is not possible, even for guests who already have a home or a hotel nearby on the Costa Blanca. If you cannot commit to a full programme, SHA will happily design a shorter residential stay around your dates and your goals, and our concierge can prepare that proposal with them.
