Ayushi Ayurvedic Retreat - Alternative medicine practitioner in Varkala - Thiruvananthapuram, India

Wonderful doctor and helpful staff. Dr. Divya Prakash is amazing and great at healing the body, with her extensive knowledge of procedures and ayurvedic treatments. As well as which medicines best accompany the individual; you will get the best custom fit plan that meets your needs and situation to help aid in your recovery.

I went to Varkala primarily to do a panchakarma as I had broken my ankle the year before and it was still causing a lot of pain and I had gained a lot of weight from not being able to exercise. I actually had chosen an alternative panchakarma centre but after 10 days I was not happy with the service, treatments or food being offered there. I was recommended to have a consultation with the Ayurvedic doctor at Ayushi Ayurveda Centre and as soon as I met the doctor there I knew I wanted to complete my program there. I had already completed 10 days with the other centre, so I arranged to have a further 10 days at Ayushi. Doctor Diviya is such a warm, kind, knowledgeable, experienced Ayurvedic doctor and she advised me on which treatments to have to properly detox my body and to help to loose weight and she also suggested an amazing treatment especially to help my swollen ankle with healing the ligaments. She also went through my doshas and advised what food would be beneficial for me and which foods I should be cutting out from my diet. The food was very good, simple satwick/Ayurvedic food especially prepared and cooked by the cook, and it was prepared exactly for my dosa (kapha/pita). And Zubin the owner would always be explaining the ingredients and sending me the links of certain vegetables I was eating to know and understand the benefits of them. The treatments and therapies were of very high standard . The senior therapist working there has years of experience and puts 100% of her energy into every treatment she gives. The treatment room is very clean and kept well. All the Ayurvedic oils used are of high quality. I completed my 10 days but decided to get full benefits so I extended my treatments for another 4 days, as I was loosing weight and my ankle with the treatment being used daily, seemed to be helping a lot. I did not stay at their accommodation as I had already pre-booked an alternative guest house but I do recommend if you're doing the panchakarma treatments to stay there as the rooms are very nice and spacious with a lovely garden to relax. You can also just go to the centre to have daily Ayurvedic treatments without doing the actual panchakarma. Zubin and Sunil the owners, are both lovely helpful guys and will ensure your time and experience at their centre is an enjoyable one. I highly recommend this centre for your time spent in beautiful Varkala. .

This is the best place in Varkala to get proper professional ayurvedic treatments. After trying in a few other clinics different massages, I finally had the chance to be treated in Ayushi and I loved it. From the moment I arrived at the clinic I was impressed by the professional but warm attitude of the staff. Mr. Zubin, the manager and owner, is an expertise in consultation with many years of experience behind. He is also a professional in yoga therapy and ayurveda therapy and is a qualified TTC yoga instructor, so he could advise me properly about what I needed and for how long and discussed with the doctor the best options for me. Besides, there are excellent doctors in the property (female and male) and also very good therapists (female and male). I got an amazing massage by a lovely female therapist that left me like new. Moreover, the clinic is fully equipped and I had the opportunity to had a warm bath to remove all the oil before leaving the place (I really appreciated that).

Once again I had to come to India for treatment. I came from Canada with diagnose "frozen shoulders". It took a lot of doctor's time to figure it out how to release my shoulders, but miracle happened after all. I thank everybody in the clinic for treatment and care. It is not only doctor, but therapists, doctor's assistant and cooks. The food was delicious!

This was a wonderful, aligning experience! I learned a ton about Ayurvedic medicine and my doshas. I knew that I was a little misaligned and their recommendations were perfect! After a few hours of specialized massage and various treatments - I was a new woman!! My anxiety was waaaayyyyy less, my skin cleared up, my stomach felt better, my mind and nervous system were calm. It was AMAZING!! Just what I needed. I can't wait to go back and do multiple treatment days!
