Six Senses offers a range of Female Wellness programmes, focusing on perimenopause, menopause, and holistic female well-being. These programmes are designed to empower women with insights and tools to maintain hormonal balance during transitions and their monthly cycles.

 

The programme includes support on female hormone cycles, fasting, blood sugar science, body composition changes, and sexual wellness. A non-invasive Wellness Screening measures key biometric markers, followed by Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) to track blood sugar levels.

 

Five properties have already offered these programmes, with other Six Senses properties expected to follow suit in the coming months.

 

Anna Bjurstam, Six Senses Wellness Pioneer, says: “Women have an immense power within themselves. The Six Senses Female Wellness journey is designed to equip guests with the tools and techniques to regain ownership of their body’s natural rhythms through times of change. The programmes create space over a few days or even a whole week for women to introduce these principles to their way of life. It’s about unlocking the untapped potential within us to enable women to thrive wherever they are in their cycle or life stage. Tuning in to the body’s language and adapting eating behaviors and movement patterns can help women navigate symptoms of the menopause such as mood swings, weight problems, and brain fog. Dr. Mindy is a fountain of female knowledge. Working together, we hope to bring our shared expertise to more and more women around the world. Particularly as the data shows how information on the menopause isn’t reaching women.”

 

The World Economic Forum recognises the gender health gap, with one key area being the lack of persistent data on female hormones and health.

 

Six Senses Female Wellness programmes aim to inform and empower women, specifically around key issues of nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, mindset, and lifestyle.

 

Guided by the Six Senses mission to help guests reconnect with themselves, others, and the world around them, Female Wellness programmes are an invitation to women to tune into what their body is telling them. They harness the knowledge of Dr Mindy Pelz, a bestselling author and advocate of holistic wellness approaches.

 

Dr Pelz says: “All that I do is about giving women the power back when it comes to their health. There are lifechanging tools within us that are massively underutilised. Often, we take our well-being for granted until we find ourselves in a state of discomfort or imbalance, such as when approaching or going through the menopause. But when we bring our bodies back into alignment with our own biology, we can unlock all that our body is capable of. It’s a joy to be able to work together with Six Senses to help women increase their confidence and outlook during this turbulent life stage. It’s about enabling women to thrive not just survive.”

 

Integrated Wellness Practitioners at each Six Senses property devise a unique plan for each guest, informed by their Wellness Screening at the beginning of their stay.

 

A combination of holistic and locally inspired treatments, therapies, and activities aim to relax the nervous system and support the oxytocin boost stimulated by fasting.

 

programmes adopt the Six Senses high-tech, high-touch approach to wellness, with Sleep With Six Senses and Eat With Six Senses principles incorporated into the stay.

 

Guests will follow a fasting programme in sync with their cycle, cycling between fasting, ketosis, and hormone-stimulating foods with a focus on healthy carbohydrates and fibers.

 

All foods follow the three guiding principles of Eat With Six Senses: natural ingredients, local and sustainable, and less is more. Menus take a cleaner and simpler approach to preparation, focusing on quality, balance, and fresh whole food made from scratch.

 

The three-day programme explores the foundations of hormonal and metabolic health, while the extended five-day programme allows for deeper exploration of key factors influencing hormonal balance, mood, cravings, sleep, weight, and mental clarity.

 

The seven-day programme aims to forge longstanding connections between fasting, food, exercise, self-care, and hormonal balance, emphasising weight release, metabolic flexibility, and detox principles. -TradeArabia News Service
