My personal journey to a new frequency at Kintsugi Space Abu Dhabi
here are wellness experiences that relax the body, others that quiet the mind, and then, very occasionally, there are places that seem to transport you somewhere entirely different. My journey into Kintsugi Space began in the most unexpected place before I had even arrived.
There are wellness experiences that relax the body, others that quiet the mind, and then, very occasionally, there are places that seem to transport you somewhere entirely different. My journey into Kintsugi Space began in the most unexpected place before I had even arrived.
The driver was waiting outside my home. I stepped into the car and almost immediately felt myself relax. It sounds strange to say that the experience began there, but it did. The soothing music, the calm atmosphere, the feeling that everything had already been considered for me created a gentle separation from the world I was leaving behind.
When I arrived, I had the sensation of stepping into a wonderland, another space, another planet.
Following the Japanese-inspired ritual, I left my shoes at the entrance in one of the well-organized drawers. It was a small gesture, but somehow significant, as though I were being asked to leave the outside world there with them. I walked through the soaring entrance and was welcomed by graceful women dressed entirely in white, each carrying the most serene energy and a beautiful smile. As the hours passed, I began privately referring to them as my “white angels.”
Before beginning anything, I was shown around, and I wanted to absorb every corner. I moved between the different levels, discovering treatment rooms, terraces, outdoor areas, trees, loungers and equipment, noticing the views and even the names chosen for the different spaces.
Everything belonged together. The architecture, interiors, nature, light and landscape exist in complete harmony. Nothing feels random or unnecessary. Every floor offers another perspective and another detail that made me stop and look. I was already in awe, and my actual wellness journey had barely begun.
Then came my Nourishment Ritual, a consciously prepared plant-based lunch intended to nourish, restore and gently energize. Against the soft whites and beiges of the surroundings, the food itself looked almost like part of the design, beautifully arranged, fresh, colourful and full of flavour. I felt as time had temporarily disappeared. Kintsugi believes that all you need is a Love Affair with any nourishing food one chooses, beyond set rules, models, and millions of suggestions.
Between the dishes, I was given a beautiful book to read full of great ideas about how to approach wellness. There was nothing to rush towards, nothing demanding my attention. I could simply eat, read, observe and be present. Eventually, one of my white angels approached me.
“We think that freedom is an inside job and as well as happiness. We already have all we need within ourselves”.
IT IS TIME FOR YOUR PERSONAL FREQUENCY ASSESSMENT.
Until that moment, Kintsugi had been an experience of beauty, taste, scent, atmosphere and design. Now it was about to become something far more personal.
The Quantum Consultation is intended to bring awareness to spiritual, mental and physical pressures and challenges believed to exist within the quantum field, with the purpose of exploring what may be required to move towards a new frequency. For those who are unfamiliar with the meaning, the quantum field is an invisible ocean of energy that fills all of space.
During approximately an hour and a half with the doctor, we explored my general vitality and energetic state, areas considered to require greater support, self-limiting approaches, sources of inspiration, energetic points suggested for self-care and chakras believed to need additional attention. How did that happen?
The doctor used several different uber-technologies for it, my both hands placed on a plate for about 20 minutes, speaking into a high-end microphone for 9 minutes, to give just a glimpse of these technologies used at Kintsugi which determine your inner world.
Yet among everything we discussed, one deceptively simple question stayed in my mind:
Do you need to hydrate your life?
Of course, we can think of hydration literally. Are we drinking enough water? Are the foods we choose adequately nourishing us? But what if hydration also applies to life itself? Are our relationships nourishing us? Are we inspired by what we read? Do our actions energize or exhaust us? Are we connected to purpose? Are we giving ourselves enough of whatever makes us feel truly alive?
It turned hydration into a much larger question for me:
Where am I nourished, and where have I quietly become thirsty?
This is one of the most valuable aspects of an assessment like this. Beyond its technology and interpretations, it creates a space in which you begin asking yourself questions that ordinary life rarely gives you the stillness to consider.
Following the consultation, the doctor selected two experiences for me. The first was the Quantum Super Tuning Ritual, a focused energetic treatment designed to support recalibration, balance and energetic harmony through frequencies, light and sound. The frequencies my body needed were transferred into water and I was given a glass of it right after the treatment.
The ritual was followed by the Hormone Balance Treatment, created to support hormonal equilibrium through carefully selected techniques and applications while encouraging physical ease and internal balance. But the technical descriptions tell only a fraction of what I experienced.
WHAT I REMEMBER MOST IS SURRENDERING.
I genuinely cannot remember when I last felt so completely and beautifully taken care of. I felt the softness of the therapist’s hands and, at certain moments, two therapists working simultaneously, dry brushing, massaging. Gradually, the idea of “having a treatment” disappeared. I simply felt nurtured, held and pampered. There was nothing for me to achieve. Nothing to understand. Nothing to improve. I only had to receive.
The music made the experience even more immersive. Mantras, soft Oms and resonant sounds filled the treatment room, seemingly moving in harmony with the therapists’ hands. Sound and touch began to merge until I stopped paying attention to where one sensation ended and another began.
At some point, I also stopped looking at Kintsugi through the eyes of someone who had come there to write about it. I was simply a woman experiencing it. And that distinction matters.
The Hormone Balance Treatment deepened this feeling further. It reminded me how rarely women allow themselves to be cared for in this way, without guilt, without interruption, without having to think about what they need to do next.
EVERY WOMAN, AND I TRULY MEAN EVERY WOMAN, DESERVES TO EXPERIENCE THIS KIND OF NURTURING.
My entire journey lasted around six hours, but I never felt that I was moving through six hours of appointments or treatments. There was a natural flow from one experience to another, and throughout it all my senses were being quietly engaged. I remember the beautiful, luxurious changing rooms, the wonderfully arranged treatment spaces, the fabrics and light, but especially the scents enriched with Orange Blossom and Rose, that carry the warmth of the desert. Different rooms and floors seemed to carry different fragrances. In one of my special rituals the rich, unmistakable scent of frankincense filled the Japanese style room I was placed in.
I could search for elaborate words to describe those fragrances, but only one really captures how they felt to me ‘ Divine ‘. By the end of those six hours, one thought had become very clear.
KINTSUGI IS NOT A SPA. KINTSUGI IS A LIFESTYLE.
Its femininity is not simply found in beautiful interiors, fragrances or luxurious treatments. It is expressed through the experience of being allowed to soften. To turn inward and to listen. To receive instead of constantly giving and to allow someone else, for a few precious hours, to take care of you.
That is a form of luxury women do not always give themselves permission to experience. And perhaps that is exactly why every woman deserves a day like this. Eventually, of course, even this day had to end.
Before leaving, I turned to the women who had surrounded me with such extraordinary care and asked them:
“Are you from a different planet, or am I on a different planet now?”
They smiled. Something about their reaction made me suspect I might not have been the first woman to ask. After hours immersed in this atmosphere of softness, beauty, touch, scent and feminine energy, the world outside really did seem very far away. My surroundings felt different because something within me felt different.
My driver was waiting outside, just as he had been when the journey began. But this time I did not want to get into the car.
On the way home, I had only one wish:
I wanted this day never to end.
Even when I reached my house, the feeling stayed with me. I was back in my familiar surroundings, but somehow, I had not entirely returned. The music, the fragrances, the touch, the quietness and above all that profound sensation of having been cared for were still with me. And for me, that is the difference between a pleasant wellness treatment and an experience that truly stays with us.
It is not simply about feeling relaxed for several hours. Nor is it about escaping our lives. It is about remembering that another way of feeling within our lives is possible. That softness matters, receiving matters. That caring for ourselves is not merely an indulgence. And before we can continue giving our energy to everything and everyone around us, we need to allow ourselves to be replenished.
I arrived at Kintsugi Space expecting to discover a wellness experience. I came home on a different frequency.
