14-Day Ayurvedic Detox & Stress Relief Retreat in Kerala, India

The retreat is hosted at Oluppuvila Veedu, a traditional Kerala heritage villa that combines natural tranquility with modern comforts. Located in the serene coastal village of Vellar, it's a short distance from Kovalam Beach and Vizhinjam Harbour, offering a peaceful escape while still being connected to Trivandrum's attractions. The property features a yoga shala, dedicated treatment rooms, an organic kitchen, and a terrace, with A/C and free wifi in the rooms.

Your days follow a rhythm designed around Ayurvedic principles. Mornings begin with yoga and meditation, followed by an Ayurvedic breakfast. The late morning and afternoon are dedicated to personalized treatments and therapies, which vary based on your dosha and health goals. These might include abhyanga (oil massage), shirodhara, or other Panchakarma detox therapies. After a leisurely Ayurvedic lunch, there's time for relaxation, a beach visit, or participating in a cooking class or excursion.

What sets this retreat apart is its medical focus. It's overseen by Dr. Anand, an Ayurvedic doctor with deep expertise in Panchakarma and therapeutic yoga. Every program is carefully crafted and supervised by experienced practitioners, ensuring both safety and effectiveness. The retreat also offers a more intensive Panchakarma detox program, which includes a personalized dosha assessment, detoxification therapies, herbal remedies, and a specialized diet.

Kerala's authentic Ayurvedic heritage is at the heart of this experience. The food is traditional Kerala Ayurvedic cuisine, emphasizing digestibility and balancing the six tastes. Meals are fresh, seasonal, and locally sourced, with a focus on vegetarian dishes like the famed 'sadya' served on a banana leaf. The retreat also provides pre and post-retreat support, cooking classes, and group excursions, alongside the core therapies.

The small group size, with a maximum of 8 participants, ensures that your treatment plan is truly personalized. Whether you're seeking stress relief, detoxification, help with joint pain, or skin health, the program is adapted to your needs.
