In line with the Dubai Happiness Agenda under the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum that seeks to make Dubai the happiest city on earth, Rixos The Palm Dubai has just unveiled an all-new Wellness Drive program that seeks to foster happiness to all their guests throughout their stay at the luxury island resort.

Created with a holistic approach to wellbeing and serenity, this program combines a variety of wellness activities from sunrise to sunset with three main highlights – Wellness Energy & Chakra Analysis, The Miracle Zen Grass Walk and Meditation Hour all designed to elevate your overall happiness and gain full control over your stress and energy levels.  

The wellness experience commences with a hi-tech chakra analysis performed by wellness expert Dr. Smitha Prabhakar to evaluate stress index and body energy blockages and provide holistic solutions to restore balance to each guest’s chakra. Become one with the nature through The Miracle Zen Grass Walk, a harmonious 20-minute morning ritual that seeks to awaken your senses with the rising sun. The program is then followed by a collection of holistic activities that include the Nordic Walk, Yoga, Beach Volleyball, Water Gym, Water Polo, Kangoo Jump, Pilates and Football all done in the resort’s exquisite outdoors while the ocean breeze blows fresh air through the beautifully landscaped gardens and palm trees. The Rixos Wellness Drive caps off with a 40-minute stress-free meditation session at 5:30pm inside Anjana Spa’s meditation room just in time before sunset where Dr. Smitha talks you through the myths of meditation, lets you in on the wisdom of the science behind this ancient practice, followed by meditation & mindfulness.

What’s more, as part of the Rixos Wellness Drive, a new Oxygen Bar and Intravenous (IV) Nutritional Therapy have been introduced as additional wellbeing services guests can now avail either in the comfort of your room or while relaxing at the beach. Oxygen therapy, which has been in existence for over 4 decades and popularly known as a hangover cure, has significant benefits including increased energy, stamina and metabolism, faster muscle recovery time, relieve stress, and relieves allergy symptoms just to mention a few. IV nutritional therapy is a method of delivering organic vitamins, minerals and other vital nutrients to the body directly into the bloodstream with numerous health benefits such as improved healing and recovery of the body and skin, enhanced immune system, stress relief, improved sports performance, and many more.

Cenk Unverdi, the General Manager of Rixos The Palm Dubai commented, “It’s always been our goal to promote our guests’ wellbeing and happiness while staying with us and with this new initiative we have opened up a new gateway to a mind-body-spirit approach that motivates each individual to take an active role in creating a new lasting routine and lifestyle change that drives happiness and enhanced energy levels.”
