Amrit Ocean Resort Unveils Florida’s Largest Spa, South Florida’s Premier Luxury Wellness Destination

PALM BEACH COUNTY, FL (September 27, 2024) – Following its grand opening in May, Amrit Ocean Resort, South Florida’s newest luxury beachfront wellness destination, proudly announces the official launch of Amrit Wellness & Spa, the largest spa in Florida. This four-story, 103,000-square-foot sanctuary of health, wellness and relaxation is located on over 300 feet of private beach of Palm Beach County’s Singer Island. Amrit Wellness & Spa is a transformative retreat that blends Eastern principles with Western luxury, offering unparalleled wellness services and therapies.

Meaning “elixir of life” in Sanskrit, Amrit (pronounced Ahm-rit) is founded on the belief that true well-being and longevity are achieved through the integration of the five pillars of wellness: mindfulness, nutrition, fitness, relaxation and sleep. These guiding principles are woven into every aspect of the property, including its 155 wellness-inspired guest rooms, five dining concepts, more than 10,000 square feet of meeting and event spaces, and the focal point, Amrit Wellness & Spa.

“Amrit is the only place in South Florida where the five pillars of wellness culminate into one transformative center, a true sanctuary where guests can discover inner peace and be guided toward a higher sense of well-being,” said Akram Alkawasmeh, executive director of wellness and spa at Amrit Ocean Resort. “Whether your path to improved wellness involves better nutrition, a new fitness regimen or learning how to meditate, we offer therapies and experiences rooted in ancient, proven techniques designed to nurture the mind, body and spirit.”

Amrit Wellness & Spa is anything but a typical hotel spa facility; it extends beyond traditional spa treatments to offer fully immersive and exclusive experiences designed to balance and enhance overall wellness. Highlights include the Aayush, Florida’s first and only indoor-outdoor hydrothermal water therapy circuit; the Personal Wellness Support System (PWSS), a proprietary web-based platform designed to further customize guests’ wellness journeys before, during and after their stay; and one of the few luxury hammams in South Florida. Additionally, Amrit has collaborated with board-certified physicians and medical practitioners to offer integrated health assessments and wellness services, including Hair Health Assessments in partnership with board-certified hair restoration physician and trichologist Dr. Alan J. Bauman and Infusion Therapy in partnership with functional sports medicine doctor Ara Suppiah, who specializes in performance and recovery.

“At Amrit Ocean Resort, we believe that caring for the mind, body and spirit is the ultimate luxury,” explained Reggie Cooper, general manager of Amrit Ocean Resort. “After years of thoughtful conceptualization, research and collaboration with the world’s leading experts in health and wellness, we are proud to be positioned among the world’s premier health and wellness destinations, offering a personalized experience for guests and visitors alike.”

Amrit Wellness & Spa, which uses a combination of European, Chinese and Indian wellness traditions and techniques, boasts 25 treatment rooms, 12 of which include in-room showers; two deluxe couples suites with private steam showers and ocean views; and a Thai massage room. All treatment rooms feature Lemi professional massage tables to ensure maximum comfort.

AAYUSH HYDROTHERMAL EXPERIENCE

At the heart of Amrit Wellness & Spa is the Aayush Hydrothermal Experience, a revolutionary facility designed to promote overall well-being and longevity through a guided circuit of experiential hydrothermal therapies. The only one of its kind in Florida, the 17,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor Aayush offers unrivaled rituals in heat therapy, cryotherapy, halotherapy and hydrotherapy in both coed and gender-specific areas. Named after the Sanskrit word for “life” or “longevity,” the Aayush is designed to energize, relax, detox and improve circulation while releasing the body’s feel-good hormones. The guided experience features a sequence of hot and cold replenishment pools, a hydro-reflexology path, an arctic chill fountain, an effusion shower, a salt inhalation chamber, sauna and steam rooms, and a lap pool. The Aayush is available to all guests who have booked an integrated wellness service, spa treatment or an all-inclusive wellness package.

HAMMAM RITUALS & BODY TREATMENTS

Amrit Wellness & Spa is home to one of the few hammams in South Florida. The 1,200-square-foot facility houses signature hammam rituals and body treatments that link ancient Moroccan bathing traditions with innovative, modern techniques. Inside the hammam are two additional private body scrub treatment rooms. Body treatments offered in the hammam include the Amrit Body Scrub, designed to improve the skin’s texture and appearance through scrubs that gently resurface the skin, followed by an emulsion that leaves skin soft and luminous; the Amrit Body Wrap, which involves exfoliation followed by a body wrap and a scalp and foot massage for noticeably softer, more hydrated skin; and the Amrit Signature Body Experience, designed to exfoliate, smooth and hydrate the skin through exfoliation, a hydrating body wrap, foot and scalp treatments, and a massage. Hammam rituals are available as an individual, couples or group experience.

PERSONAL WELLNESS SUPPORT SYSTEM (PWSS)

Amrit Ocean Resort’s PWSS is an innovative, proprietary web-based platform designed to customize and enhance guests’ wellness journeys before, during and after their stay. Exclusive to those who purchase an all-inclusive wellness package or attend a resort retreat (coming in 2025), the PWSS offers personalized wellness services, including virtual coaching, goal-setting tools and access to a vast content library.

INTEGRATED HEALTH ASSESSMENTS 

As part of Amrit’s integrated health services, Amrit Wellness & Spa offers comprehensive, targeted integrated health assessments conducted by on-site, certified experts. Assessments include the Personal Wellness Guide Assessment, an overall well-being evaluation with a focus on the five pillars; Nutrition Assessment, where a registered dietician reviews a guest’s dietary intake and identifies areas where change is needed; In-Body Evaluation that measures the body’s composition of muscle mass and fat mass; and Ayurvedic Assessment, where guests are examined through nadi pariksha (pulse examination), marma point assessment and several other diagnostic procedures.

INTEGRATED WELLNESS SERVICES

After an assessment, Personal Wellness Guides will recommend one or more of Amrit’s integrated wellness services to help guests meet their wellness and health goals. Services include Flotation Therapy, a dry float therapy system that involves the body floating over 106 gallons of warm water without the need to get undressed or wet, reducing stress and improving blood circulation, among other benefits; Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, a pressurized pod where guests breathe pure oxygen to increase the amount of oxygen in the blood and help the body fight infections; Acupuncture, the ancient art of healing used to correct imbalances of energy, or chi, in the body; Acupuncture Face-Lift, a nonsurgical procedure involving needles in the face to stimulate the body’s healing response and improve the skin’s appearance; Sound Bath Therapy, which uses Instruments, including signing bowls, chimes, tuning forks and gongs to promote relaxation; Red Light Therapy, which exposes the body to specific light wavelengths to encourage recovery and reduce inflammation and pain; Tibetan Sound Bowl Chakra Balancing, which uses metal bowls that produce vibrations and frequencies to help realign the chakras, or energy centers, within the body; and Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy, where electromagnetic fields are used to treat non-union fractures and depression.

Ayurvedic therapies at Amrit are recommended based on the results of the Ayurvedic Assessment, a 5,000-year-old medical system from India that uses natural and holistic approaches to keeping the mind, body and spirit healthy. After being examined through nadi pariksha (pulse examination), marma point assessment and several other gentle diagnostic procedures, Amrit’s Ayurvedic specialists will recommend the best Ayurvedic path through therapies such as Shirodhara, where a stream of warm, herbal-infused oils is continuously poured over the forehead to quiet the mind and calm the nervous system; and Abhyanga, a flowing rhythmic massage with dosha balancing oils to bring balance and harmony to all three doshas.

*Integrated Health Services and Ayurvedic therapies can be booked individually or may be included in one of Amrit’s all-inclusive wellness stay packages.
