7 Day Ayurveda & Panchakarma Wellness Retreat in Goa, India

This retreat is for you if you want genuine Ayurvedic treatment rather than a spa break dressed up as wellness. Over seven days in Goa, the focus is on Panchakarma: daily consultations, prescribed therapies, and a diet matched to your condition. No particular fitness level is required, because the programme is built around treatment and rest rather than exertion. Whether you are managing a chronic condition or simply want a proper detox, the care is tailored to you.

The centre is run by Dr. Jijith C. Ravindran, who trained in Kerala and Goa and has over twelve years of practice. He works alongside a team of Ayurvedic doctors and therapists. What sets the clinic apart is that it is one of the few in Goa offering Panchabhautik Chikitsa, a traditional method based on the five elements. It involves percussion on the abdomen and pulse diagnosis, and it is very hands-on and very specific, not a generic spa massage. Each day you have a consultation with the doctor, who adjusts your therapy and diet to what is going on with you that day.

You stay in Nerul, Goa, at a beachside homestay called La Sea Vue Goa, about a ten-minute drive from the treatment center. The property sits around 100 meters from the beach and has a garden, a terrace, and free WiFi. Rooms are private, with ensuite bathrooms and air conditioning. There is a restaurant serving Indian and Vedic food prepared under the doctor's guidance, with a vegetarian buffet breakfast and the option of a child-friendly buffet if you are bringing children. It is a simple, comfortable base rather than a luxury resort, which suits the treatment-focused nature of the stay.

A typical day has a steady, healing rhythm. Mornings may begin at 07:00 with ghee intake for detox if it has been prescribed, otherwise with breakfast at 08:00. After a light vegetarian breakfast at the homestay, you are driven to the treatment center for your consultation with the doctor and a 90-minute therapy session, which might be Abhyanga, Shirodhara, or another prescribed treatment. Lunch is served at 13:00 in the homestay kitchen, and your afternoons are free, with optional cycling, swimming, or a beach walk. On your final day there is a last check-in with the doctor, breakfast, and check-out at 10:00 with your airport transfer arranged.

The food is a central part of the programme. All three meals are provided daily, and the diet is customised to your condition and the doctor's advice. The homestay kitchen prepares vegetarian meals, often in a Vedic style, including dishes like kitchari and other Ayurvedic preparations. The food is simple, healing, and designed to support the detox process, and there is a dedicated diet and lifestyle session as part of your stay.
