A stay designed around you
Ayurveda has long given attention to women’s health at different stages of life. Centres design stays around, for example, menstrual wellbeing, the months after childbirth — known in Ayurveda as sutika paricharya, traditional postnatal care — and the years around menopause.
A woman physician consults you first, then sets a plan of therapies, food, yoga and rest. We ask for women therapists for all hands-on therapies; at most Kerala centres this is already the norm.
What it can include

Abhyanga, Shirodhara and others chosen for you.
Gentle practice, breathing and yoga nidra, adapted to your stage of life.
Warm, nourishing meals from the centre’s kitchen.

Questions guests ask
Can I be sure of women-only therapists?
Yes. We confirm women therapists with the centre in writing before you book.
Is there a programme for pregnancy?
We do not arrange therapy programmes during pregnancy. Gentle prenatal yoga with a qualified teacher can be arranged, with your doctor’s agreement.
