SOHUM Wellness Sanctuary offers a serene retreat and unrestricted relaxation in the heart of bustling Dubai.
In search of a mind, body and soul reset, I recently found myself at SOHUM Wellness Sanctuary. A complete wellness destination, the sprawling space with an clean decor offers a soothing escape, that instantly transports you into another world.
Rooted in ancient Ayurvedic wisdom at its core, SOHUM stays true to its traditional holistic healing roots and offers wellness treatments that leave you feeling rested and rejuvenated. They also have a curated selection of self-care products from powerful gemstones to spiritual tools like sage, that you can buy.
Once changed I headed to the softly lit therapy room where there was a calming scent of essential oils that instantly relaxed me. As I wanted complete top-to-toe pampering I picked the Swedish Massage. The treatment began with a foot cleansing ritual that involved plenty of rose petals infused in warm water. The 60-minute massage tackled my tight shoulders and stiff calves and really left me with relaxed muscles and a better posture.
I then headed over to the relaxation area which features a sauna, steam room, and both hot and cold plunge pools. I spent the next hour (or more) rotating between these facilities before retreating to the quiet zone where I sipped on fresh coconut water, feeling completely restored.
Having worked up an appetite I headed down to TAAMA, SOHUM’s signature plant-based restaurant focused on sustainability and locally-sourced products. Starting with a vibrant beetroot and shilajit elixir, next came the standout grilled cauliflower dish topped with basil tahini and pickled onions. The khichri was wholesome and comforting, and the lion’s mane steak hearty and filling. Other ingenious highlights included the earthy truffle pizza and the surprisingly indulgent vegan tiramisu.
SOHUM is a soulful sanctuary with nurturing therapies and calming holistic healing at its core. A place to pause, breathe, and reconnect, you can easily spend an entire day here, start with a sound meditation session, before retreating to a facial or massage (or both), then indulging in thermal experiences, and finally wrapping up with a leisurely, global-inspired meal.
SOHUM Wellness Sanctuary is located at First – 13 A Street – Sheikh Zayed Rd – Al QuozÂ
