Why Modern Wellness Travelers Are Flocking to Four Seasons Maldives

This summer, The Island Spa at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Kuda Huraa welcomes globally renowned integrative medicine practitioner Ada Ooi for a limited-time residency. Guests will have the opportunity to recalibrate the nervous system, address health issues, and discover skin that glows from the inside out.

From August 9 to 20, 2025, Ada will bring the expertise of her award-winning Harley Street clinic, 001 London, to the Maldives, offering a curated menu of diagnostic-led treatments that blend Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), neuropsychology, and holistic skincare. Designed for those seeking true, sustained wellbeing, the exclusive residency signals a bold step forward for The Island Spa as a destination for deeply personalized, results-driven wellness.

Revered for her precision diagnostics, Ada helps address the root causes of a wide range of conditions including male and female fertility issues, fatigue, hormonal imbalance, skin concerns, emotional stress, and digestive discomfort. Her integrative approach combines acupuncture, herbal pharmacology, tuina, and dietary therapy alongside modern neurobiological insights.

Against a glittering backdrop of Maldivian blues, Kuda Huraa guests can also discover Ada’s signature MicroSculpt facial technique. Described by Harper’s Bazaar as the “Red Carpet League” of skincare, her revolutionary holistic techniques are trusted by A-list celebrities and global wellness insiders alike.

“The modern guest is no longer content with surface-level wellness,” says Didier Jardin, General Manager at Four Seasons Kuda Huraa. “They’re looking for substance, science and soul. Ada brings all three. Her residency reflects our vision for The Island Spa as a sanctuary of transformation.”

Treatment highlights include:

  • TCM Discovery (15 minutes, Complimentary): A complimentary introduction to Traditional Chinese Medicine, ideal for curious first timers
  • INTEGRATV Health Consultation (30 minutes, USD$250): A comprehensive diagnostic session resulting in a personalized wellness roadmap across diet, mental health, movement and more

Led by in-depth diagnostics, each session is rooted in Ada’s belief that real transformation happens when the mind, body and skin are treated as one interconnected system.
