The clinic will offer advanced medical technology across 32 different practices including cardiology, dermo-aesthetics, nutrition, dentistry, regenerative medicine and pain management.

A spokesperson for the clinic said: “Zem Spa will activate all guests’ senses and, above all, their basal metabolism through direct contact with all the elements of nature. This will greatly increase the effectiveness of any of our clinical programmes.

“Our USP, far from boasting the latest architectural innovations, is that we have succeeded in designing a space that facilitates reconnection with oneself and the natural environment.

“ZEM Wellness Clinic Altea is more than just a health programme. It is about reordering priorities, internalising prevention and forming healthy habits for the future. Guests learn to embrace, understand and positively accept the passage of time.”
