1. Kerala Ayurveda
Kerala is the land of ayurveda, a 5000 year ancient Hindu traditional medical
practice that has its origins in the Vedic time and still remains one of the best
complementary and alternative medical practices in the world. Ancient
practitioners have developed preparations from natural ingredients for the
treatment of various ailments.
The basic principle of ayurveda rests on the perfect balance of the three
Dosha’s or elemental substances in a human body ie : Vata, Pitha & Kapha.
Diagnosis is an eight pronged approach and treatments are prescribed to bring
about a balance in the body. Medicines are generally plant based and few are
animal based. Some medicines contain minerals too. Use of oils & massages
with medicated oils are also prescribed.
People from all over the world come to Kerala to experience the power of
kerala ayurveda. Tourists visiting India and especially Kerala indulge in the
rejuvenation therapies available. Kerala is dotted with ayurvedic resorts, and
hospitals with a resort like ambience that offer therapies both long as well as
short term.
Ayurvedic treatments are generally performed on days in multiples of 3, ie:
either 3 days, 7 days, 21 days etc. Proper consultation is sought from an
ayurvedic doctor or practitioner, who prescribes the treatments, massages,

2. medicines, and an appropriate diet. Satvic food is generally advised, which is
mainly vegetarian with the avoidance of dairy too.
Abhayanga or oil massage is often prescribed. The patient is placed in an
ennathoni or wooden massage bed and masseurs apply medicated oils to the
body or poultices to the affected areas.
It is a ritual with traditional Indians to undergo a sukhachikilsa or rejuvenation
therapy for 7 days at the onset of the monsoons in June every year. The body is
said to be at its most tender condition and best to receive the medication it is
provided. This yearly ritual keeps the mind and body agile and pain free for
long periods.
Shirodhara for cooling the head is yet another therapy for cooling of the head,
relaxing the mind, sinusitis and various other ills. A continuous stream of
medicated oil is poured onto the forehead in a steady stream.

3. Most tours of India include Ayurveda as a must-do on their itineraries. Some
tours make ayurveda-centric itineraries that include long term treatments,
diets, yoga and relaxation sessions, rejuvenation therapies etc.
A visitor to India must enjoy the best India has to offer not only in terms of its
culture & heritage but also its ancient practices of healing and wellness.
