Our Vision
Al Shifa believes in Holistic approach. We consider the
whole human body as a whole entity rather than a
conglomerate of many organs and systems. In our Spa we
consider all aspects and traits of a guest before
imparting the suitable treatment to him. Keeping this in
mind a detailed history is taken regarding your health
condition by qualified Doctors who are experts in the
field of Ayurveda and Natural Medicine. Sometimes
adjuvant alternative therapies like Natur ecure, Yoga,
Acupuncture, Magneto therapy etc. also may be prescribed
to you to make the treatments more potent.
At the heart of The Al Shifa programs are the profound
treatment programs that help restore balance and
reawaken the body’s natural healing mechanisms. But the
treatments are only a part of a comprehensive approach
to creating health. Guests at Al Shifa also gain an
understanding of how all the various aspects of their
lives are interrelated and contribute either positively
or negatively to overall well being. Guests learn to
understand how individual factors in their make-up
affect physical tendencies, moods, cravings, motivation,
and behavior. And guests learn how simple shifts in
diet, exercise, and daily and seasonal routines can
enhance their progress toward increased strength,
stability and vitality.
