Resort description
SHA Wellness Clinic is a flagship medical wellness resort in Europe and one of the most recognised integrative longevity centres in the world. It is located on the Mediterranean coast of the Costa Blanca. The mild climate of this region has been recognised by the World Health Organisation as one of the most favourable for living and restoring health.
SHA Wellness Clinic opened in 2008 and immediately became a symbol of a new approach to preventive medicine and comprehensive wellness. The clinic’s work is based on the patented SHA Method — an integrative medical approach in which each programme is built not on a template, but on data from detailed diagnostics.
Doctors analyse the biological age of cells, hormonal status, inflammatory markers, autonomic nervous system function and genetic predispositions. Based on this data, a multidisciplinary team of doctors (therapists, endocrinologists, geneticists and dietitians) creates a personalised protocol that combines:
- nutriciology — dietary correction based on metabolic indicators and food intolerances;
- preventive and functional medicine — addressing the root cause, not the symptom;
- physical rehabilitation and neuromuscular training — tailored to each patient’s physiology;
- psycho-emotional support — cognitive practices, stress and anxiety management;
- natural and Eastern therapies — Ayurveda, acupuncture, phytotherapy as a complement to primary therapy.
SHA Wellness Clinic is suitable for those who feel accumulated fatigue, chronic stress or reduced vitality and want to understand their root causes, not just temporarily relieve symptoms. Patients with excess weight and metabolic disorders, hormonal imbalances, early signs of age-related changes, as well as executives and top managers with professional burnout syndrome undergo treatment here.

Frequently asked questions
The SHA Method is based on an integrative approach combining the latest advances in Western preventive medicine with proven effective Eastern natural therapies. The main difference of the method is its focus not on temporarily relieving symptoms, but on identifying their root causes through cellular diagnostics, macrobiotic nutrition, physical exercise and psycho-emotional reset.
Nutrition at SHA is based on the principles of modern macrobiotics and is individually adapted by doctors to each guest’s metabolic characteristics. The menu of the SHAMADI fine dining restaurant contains no meat, dairy products, refined sugar or artificial additives. The therapeutic diet is based on organic grains, vegetables, legumes, seaweed and fresh seafood.
SHA is an innovative medical wellness resort whose concept combines a rigorous clinical approach with the comfort of a luxury five-star hotel. Patients stay in elegant suites while undergoing in-depth medical diagnostics and treatment under the supervision of internationally renowned doctors. An important rule of the resort: it is impossible to book accommodation without undergoing a wellness programme.
The clinic has a multidisciplinary team combining experts in preventive medicine, genetics, endocrinology, cardiology and neuropsychology, as well as leading specialists in acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine. The doctors do not work in isolation but form a single council to create a personalised treatment protocol for each patient.
SHA Wellness Clinic is located in El Albir because of its unique microclimate, which the World Health Organisation (WHO) has officially recognised as one of the most favourable in the world. The mountains of the Sierra Helada Natural Park protect the coast from winds, providing over 330 sunny days a year and the cleanest air, ideal for respiratory and general recovery.
Visiting SHA Clinic is comfortable at any time of year, as the Costa Blanca coast maintains mild weather all 12 months (winter temperature is around 15—18°C). However, for intensive detox, weight correction and anti-ageing programmes, doctors often recommend spring or autumn, as the off-season is considered the optimal period for metabolic reset.
