May: Come Home to Yourself
A sanctuary for women where beauty, healing, and connection unfold, guiding us to live the life we have imagined
Sitting in the restaurant, the rays of the rising sun filter softly through the curtains. The atmosphere is light, calm, almost hushed. Beautiful Italian design catches the eye. The aroma of espresso drifts in from the kitchen as you savour homemade granola with coconut yogurt.
It is early morning at Kintsugi Space, seven floors of soft pink wellness in the heart of vibrant Abu Dhabi, offering a luxury wellness retreat experience that nurtures total wellbeing.
There are breaths that release, embraces that heal, and glances that connect. And there are places that become true sanctuaries, spaces where you can regenerate, challenge yourself, find your own rhythm, and simply be who you are.
Kintsugi Space is a soulful refuge within the bustle of life.
A peaceful pause, a step away from the pace of your busy days, where meaningful change can take root.
A place where the inner life is celebrated as much as the outer one.
An emotional haven for women to meet, to share, to cultivate joy and above all, to simply be.
Beauty in Wellness and Wellness in Beauty
Since ancient times, women have always been drawn to beauty. It is woven into their nature: their own beauty, the beauty that surrounds them, the beauty alive within life itself.
And the more we tend to beauty, the more we come to understand that true beauty is a force that flows from within. It blossoms with emotional truth. It awakens a spiritual homecoming. The A.R.T. of Beautiful Wellness is the signature approach to wellbeing at Kintsugi Space. Inspired by the Japanese art of kintsugi – the practice of repairing with gold – this philosophy embraces holistic wellness as a golden thread that soothes, enhances, restores, and reimagines life as a unique masterpiece.
Ancient healing modalities, next-generation technologies, scientific expertise, and globally inspired holistic therapies come together to guide women along their healing journey, toward happier, healthier, more intentional ways of being. It is a call to create nourishing rituals, to dissolve into stillness within a secluded space, to receive care that is both deep and tender, and to move from thinking to simply observing, from doing to feeling.
With women, for Women
Whether it is a day retreat or a transformational women’s retreat designed to support your personal self-discovery journey, the Wellness Ladies at Kintsugi Space are there to warmly guide every step of the journey. A team of holistic experts and dedicated professionals, from mindfulness practitioners, Ayurveda and naturopathic doctors, and Shiatsu masters, to physiotherapists and intuitive healers with a truly magical touch.
Your day begins with a broad-scope Quantum Assessment with Dr. Keerthana, to chart your potential and experience the deep connectedness of everything and everyone, setting the tone for your entire Kintsugi journey. It may continue with a Chi Nei Tsang session with Amonwan, a highly specialised therapist in this ancient Chinese practice, working with the Chi, our vital energy, to release deeply held emotions and address the root causes of many health concerns.
A fresh, healthy cocktail, prepared by the loving hands of Cristina, offers a nourishing pause along the way.
The day can then unfold into a powerful yoga session with Suparna and come to rest in a Sound Massage with Dr. Dhanya, a true quantum experience, holding you in a state of deep bliss as every cell of your body receives a harmonious and profoundly restorative vibrational treatment.
With the empathetic and intuitive wisdom that women carry within them by nature, the therapists at Kintsugi support each guest in designing a personal pathway. One that reconnects you to the deepest, most luminous version of yourself. One that reveals a vision toward your new frequency.
Quote of the Month
“As you start to walk on the way, the way appears”
– Rumi
A cosmic refugee
With the lightness of a beauty salon, the strength of a community, the wisdom of ancient practices, the innovation of modern technology, and the flair of Italian style, Kintsugi Space is a place for the body, and a place for the soul. A place where the spiritual and the sensory intertwine, and every gesture carries the quiet power to heal.
There comes a moment in life when you stop searching for what to do and begin to remember who you are.
You seek a place to pause, to breathe, to return. You make space for your natural language. You reposition yourself in the world. You realign with your gifts.
Because life does not happen by chance. It is not always meant to be understood. But it is meant to be felt and listened to. To resonate. To reach that something sacred within you.
As in timeless traditions, a spa is a place of ceremony and reverence, a space for renewal, a return to true ritual. It is where everything conspires to awaken something ancient within us.
Because a spa is not a place to stretch time. It is a place to deepen it.
We all seek one thing above all: peace.
A rest from all the noise.
A release, so that stuck energy may flow again.
A calm mind, one the universe quietly surrenders to.
Choose a time. Find your place.
And from there, awaken your desire to heal, to expand, to reclaim your own potential.
To return — finally, fully — to yourself.
