I want to thank Vanessa for her exceptional skill and ability to release all my triggers points and contractures helping ease away the pain that was causing me migraines stemming from the cervical area, tension built in my lower back and around my shoulders. She is attentive and absolutely professional, she made me feel very comfortable and I couldn’t be happier with her. She’s so lovely and caring, a true dedicated physiotherapist. I highly recommend her. I’m truly grateful. Que dios te bendiga!
I just want to say a big thank you to Vanessa for the amazing job she did. Her expertise in phylogenetics is impressive, but what really stood out was how well she treated me professional, kind, and genuinely caring. The muscle massage session was incredibly effective and made a huge difference. I left feeling so much better. Truly grateful for her skill and dedication!
First time trying out sports massage here at reSTART & I had my session with Veronica. Let me begin by saying that from the moment I met with Veronica I instantly felt relaxed. She was extremely warm & friendly & made me feel comfortable from the start. She is absolutely amazing at what she does & was focused on helping me feel better. She was attentive & always made sure that I was feeling okay & always made sure that the pressure was suited to me & that it wasn’t a painful experience. The sports massage was the best I’ve done in Abu Dhabi. Veronica helped tackle & release my tension problems & made it extremely pleasant experience. I left the facility feeling 1000% better than when I walked in. Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Veronica & all that she did today. If you’re looking for the best sports massage I highly recommend Veronica. Her knowledge, experience, professionalism & warm personality is everything you could ask for. Again thank you reSTART for the space that is inviting & welcoming & to Veronica that has made my experience far more than I expected. I thought I would be in pain but she helped me feel better through her knowledge, experience & awareness of the body. Thank you so much I will see you next week!
Restart Center has been an incredible support on my healing journey. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, respected, and truly cared for. The environment is calm and professional, and the whole team works together to make sure you feel safe and understood. I especially want to mention my therapist, Micheal.She is really so professional and knows what to do. Highly recommended
I had a great experience at Restart Physiotherapy, especially thanks to Michael. She is extremely skilled, attentive, and truly cares about helping you improve. Her treatment and guidance made a noticeable difference, and the place is clean and welcoming. Highly recommend—ask for Michael! 🌟

reSTART's amenities & hours
Daily hours aren’t published on the venue’s Google profile. Send the venue a quick WhatsApp or give them a call to confirm today’s hours and availability.
Walkthrough
Your first visit to reSTART
Most neighbourhood spas keep the preamble short: check in at reception, change, and the therapist collects you shortly after. A 60-minute treatment generally runs to time, and most visitors are out 15–20 minutes after it ends. Ask reSTART on WhatsApp if you'd like time to relax afterwards.
Pre-treatment consultations are usually short but important. Confirm pressure (many visitors go for "firm but not painful"), flag any joint or back issues, mention oil allergies up front, and say whether you want to chat or sleep. Ask reSTART at booking which languages its team speaks.
Location
Where this is, how to get there
In Yas Island, Abu Dhabi: reSTART. Yas Island's resort spas (W Yas, Yas Hotel, Park Inn) cater to weekend visitors and Formula 1 / Yas Marina patrons. Recovery and sports massage are popular.
Yas Island has no Metro coverage — private car or taxi is the only practical access. Extra buffer time on weekend evenings is sensible. The venue itself sits at Villa 134 Yaw As Simaynah St - Al Muntazah - E48 - Abu Dhabi - United Arab Emirates (24.4308°N, 54.4428°E).
Hours vary. Same-day checks: WhatsApp. Weekend nights and couples bookings need lead time; weekday daytime is more open.
Booking notes
What to know before you book
Practical tips for booking a venue like this one.
- Skip the phone if you can. Most UAE spas handle bookings over WhatsApp; reply times vary, so message reSTART a day ahead for anything time-sensitive.
- Most reSTART bookings confirm same-day for weekday slots. For Saturday evening or Friday afternoon, send a WhatsApp 48 hours ahead.
- Confirm parking when you book — availability varies by yas-island block.
Practical guide
Practical guide to reSTART
What to prepare, what happens during, and how to recover — the practical pipeline.
Booking and check-in
Most people contact reSTART via WhatsApp; if you don't hear back within the hour, call the listed number instead. Plan to be on site 10 minutes early — that's the buffer for changing, a short consultation form and a chat with the therapist about pressure. Advance booking is the safer route here; walk-ins only sometimes work.
Settling the bill (and tip)
Cards and cash both work for payment (confirm Apple Pay specifics on WhatsApp). Tipping isn't required; the local convention is 10–15% in cash, handed to the therapist personally rather than processed through reception.
After the treatment
Hydrate well — both massage and hammam release fluids and minor toxins. Avoid intense exercise for 12 hours. If you had a facial, skip new skincare products that evening and let the skin breathe. Most visitors leave feeling looser; the full effect lands 12–24 hours later.
