The approach at SHA Mexico

SHA Wellness Clinic Mexico brings the internationally acclaimed SHA Method® to the lush landscapes of the Riviera Maya.

The clinic’s approach to wellness is comprehensive, integrating Western and Eastern therapies to achieve optimal health. Born from a personal journey of healing, SHA Wellness Clinic was founded in 2008 by Alfredo Bataller Parietti. Inspired by his own recovery through healthy living and a blend of natural therapies and western medicine, SHA's mission is to empower people to live longer, healthier lives.

The SHA Method® focuses on rebalancing the body, mind, and spirit through personalized programs that include advanced medical treatments, holistic therapies, and nutrition. The clinic places a strong emphasis on preventive care, with programs designed to detoxify, reduce stress, and promote long-term well-being.

The tranquil setting in front of Isla Mujeres, combined with SHA’s expertise and Integrated Medicine approach, make the buzz among those seeking to rejuvenate and reset their health in the Americas.

The nutrition at SHA Mexico

SHA combines advanced nutrition science with gourmet dining to create a holistic approach to health.

The SHA nutrition is primarily plant-based, focusing on macrobiotic principles that support detox, weight loss, and longevity.

The diet emphasizes low-calorie, nutrient-dense foods that promote gut health and overall wellness. Meals are carefully designed to be both therapeutic and delicious, with options to customize calorie intake based on individual health goals.

In terms of calorie quantities, 3 different menus are available at SHA. Menus with higher calorie restrictions induce a stronger autophagy - a vital process in which the body's cells “clean out” any unnecessary or damaged components. At the beginning of their program, guests discuss with their doctors and nutritionists which menu best corresponds to their needs, depending on the intensity of the detoxification needed.

Good to know: the desserts are really remarkable. The Executive Chef Andres Moran is an outstanding pastry chef.
