Six Senses brand ensures that treatments are top notch and this resort is no different. Six Senses philosophy don't follow fads. It is about using a smart technology to personalise your spa treatment or design programme for your particular needs. Available is wellness screening which is non-invasive analysis measuring your key biomarkers which are then discussed with the in-house expert. Another highlight is the movement efficiency test. This system integrates sports science and cutting-edge technology and helps a personal trainer look at your movement patterns and identify areas of strength and weakness. Afterwards, they design a workout plan that optimises your training performance and reduces the risk of injury, and ensures that your body is aligned.
