Harmony of body, mind and soul
Ayurveda evolved around 600 BC in India. This system of medicine
stresses on the prevention of body ailments in addition to
curing them. Today, it's a unique, indispensable branch of
medicine -a complete natural healing system that depends on
the diagnosis of your body's humours -vata, pitta and kapha
-to achieve the right balance. Ayurveda believes in the treatment
of not just the affected part, but the individual as a whole.
Making it the natural way to refresh yourself, eliminate all
toxic imbalances from the body and thus regain resistance
and good health.
Kerala, the land of Ayurveda
Kerala's equable climate, natural abundance of forests (with
a wealth of herbs and medicinal plants) and the cool monsoon
season (June- November) are best suited for Ayurveda's curative
and restorative packages. In fact, today, Kerala is the only
State in India which practises this system of medicine with
absolute dedication.
Monsoon, the ideal time for rejuvenation
Traditional texts reveal that the monsoon is the best season
for rejuvenation programmes. The atmosphere remains dust-free
and cool, opening the pores of the body to the maximum, making
It most receptive to herbal oils and therapy.
