imbalances. TAIM-inspired treatments, such as Al Ras, a therapeutic massage focussing on the head and abdomen using a warm jade stone to release energetic blockages and pent-up muscle tension. Longer stays include a Gyrotonic gym session under the guidance of a physiotherapist to reduce the effects of office syndrome by promoting postural alignment which is beneficial for those sitting at desks all day, acupuncture to boost energy flow, and a nourishing wrap to pamper and revive the body. All programmes are underpinned by the resort’s signature wellness cuisine, where mouthwatering, accomplished meals are created using the freshest of organic and therapeutic ingredients. The skilful culinary team employs techniques that ensure dishes are low in salt, sugar, and unhealthy seasonings while delivering flavour and nourishment to support the guest’s wellness journey. Herbal supplements may also be recommended in consultation with a TAIM specialist, as stress tends to wreak havoc with digestion, which can exacerbate anxiety, affect sleep quality, and worsen the sense of burnout. TAIM is a holistic healing system recorded in The Canon of Medicine, a medical encyclopaedia written in 1025 by the physician-philosopher Ibn Sina, whose writings influenced schools of medicine for centuries. It includes the use of medicinal herbs and therapies such as hijama cupping. The revival of this knowledge, reinterpreted for the 21st century by Zulal Wellness Resort, is a pioneering approach to reclaiming cultural heritage and redefining wellness. Heinrich Morio, General Manager of Zulal Wellness Resort by ChivaSom said: “The pressure that people experience in their day-today lives can be so overwhelming that it is no surprise stress and burnout is on the rise. We know that long-term stress can lead to chronic illnesses and we have created this retreat to support guests who choose to take a proactive approach to fulfilling their emotional health and wellbeing. Each of the treatments and therapies has been carefully selected for inclusion in our Stress Reset and Burnout Recovery retreat, and our goal is to provide our guests with the tools they need to live a longer, richer, and healthier life full of potential.” As with all retreats at Zulal Wellness Resort, guests pursuing the Stress Reset and Burnout Recovery Retreat undergo an individual consultation with a Health & Wellness Advisor on arrival, enjoy three wellness cuisine meals per night of stay, receive a personalised programme of treatments and activities, enjoy the daily group classes and evening ritual, and have full access to the extensive health and wellness facilities including separate male and female hydrothermal areas, sauna, steam room, arctic cave, outdoor and indoor pools, gymnasiums and group fitness classes.
