Four Seasons Resorts Maldives celebrates Global Wellness Day in Maldivian style

Published

on

Maldives.net.mv – In celebration of Global Wellness Day (Saturday, June 11, 2016) Four Seasons Resorts Maldives are once again pushing out the boat – and kayaks – to encourage guests and staff alike to celebrate and connect in style.

Joining more than 3,000 wellness initiatives in 100 countries across the globe, the festivities will form part of one of 2016’s longest celebrations of the year – which last year panned all time zones, from sunrise in Fiji to sunset in Hawaii.

At Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru, the celebratory wellness day starts at 7:00 am with an hour of Tai-chi Chuan and Qigong. Guests will then be encouraged to spend the day exploring the island’s complimentary natural wellness activities: from swimming, kayaking and snorkelling in the lagoon and Coral Gardens to connecting with self and surroundings on the Yoga Energy Trail.

At 5:30 pm, a group run is planned – beginning at Blu and continuing around the entire island – to promote change and unity, health, exploration and wellbeing. The day will end with Wellness Blooming Yoga at 9:00 pm to relax and rejuvenate body and mind.

Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa will be celebrating the day with a complimentary wellness itinerary for staff and guests of all ages, starting with two yoga sessions: 7:00 am at the Pool Deck for adults, followed by 10:30 am in Kids Club.

Next, there’s the chance to learn about juice blends and super food salads during a Healthy Food Cooking Class at Baraabaru, before heading to Turtle Beach for Laughter Yoga at 5:30 pm. As the day winds down, the Marine Discovery Centre will host a Pranic Healing / Vedanta talk at 6:15 pm before starlit meditation at 9:30 pm at Turtle Beach.

Commenting on the Resorts’ events, Sandie Johannessen – Director of Landaa’s Spa and Ayurvedic Retreat – commented, “Global Wellness Day is such a fantastic initiative and something we are extremely proud to be a part of.  Wellness is integral to the ethos and offerings at Four Seasons Resorts Maldives, from powerful treatments and therapies to simply getting active – or being still – in nature.  It’s about living well and continually moving forward on a journey of physical, emotional and spiritual transformation. We hope we inspire and re-inspire everyone taking part with us this Saturday.”

Happy Global Wellness Day to all from Four Seasons Resorts Maldives!

Milaidhoo Maldives has announced the launch of its new Serenity Spa menu, introducing a collection of therapies designed to support physical and mental wellbeing. The refreshed menu encourages guests to relax, reconnect and experience moments of calm on the boutique island.

Set above the turquoise waters of the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Serenity Spa offers an elevated setting for rest and renewal. With four overwater treatment suites and an oceanfront yoga pavilion, the spa provides an environment where guests can slow down and unwind.

Wellbeing at Milaidhoo follows a holistic philosophy, drawing on natural elements and time-honoured healing traditions. The new therapies reflect this approach, offering intuitive, personalised care that aims to restore balance. Each treatment is designed with the understanding that wellness is individual, and the spa team tailors every session to meet the guest’s specific needs.

A highlight of the new menu is the LYMA Laser, a skin treatment available exclusively at Milaidhoo in the Maldives. Using advanced technology, the LYMA Laser promotes skin regeneration, reduces fine lines and improves overall tone, providing visible results without invasive procedures. Guests can enjoy the treatment while taking in the soothing atmosphere of the island.

The updated spa menu also features treatments using premium products from Natura Bissé, Aromatherapy Associates and Obsidian Skincare for Men, selected for their quality and effectiveness. Locally inspired remedies, informed by island traditions, complement the offering, bringing together authenticity and contemporary wellbeing. Milaidhoo has also partnered with Margaret Dabbs London to introduce its globally recognised nail and grooming services to the resort.

Personalisation remains central to Milaidhoo’s approach to wellbeing. This extends beyond the spa to include nourishing cuisine and opportunities for digital disconnection, encouraging guests to experience the island at an unhurried pace. The aim is to create an atmosphere where relaxation emerges naturally.

Serenity Spa is positioned not only as a place for pampering but as a refuge for reflection and reconnection. It offers guests the chance to engage with the island’s calming environment and rediscover a sense of equilibrium.

His specialities include Chakra Inner Energy Balancing, Ayurveda Deep Fusion Therapy, Visceral Manipulation, Maderotherapy, and Mind-Body Healing.
