The Nattika Beach Resort











Introduction:

In the world inspired by a rapid lifestyle, personalised treatment is no longer a luxury, but a necessity. Ayurveda follows a personalised holistic treatment method rather than a one fits all approach in treatments. In Natika Beach Ayurveda Resort, each wellness program is prepared with accuracy, which lies in the time-testing science of ayurveda.

Understanding the essence of Ayurveda

The foundation of Ayurveda lies in the understanding of three doshas - vata, pitha and kapha . Each person has a unique constitution (Prakriti) and specific imbalance (vikruti).The body constitution remains the same from birth to death whereas the imbalance gets changed according to lifestyle changes, seasonal variations etc. In Nattika, Ayurvedic doctors use this principle along with various examinations like pulse diagnosis,eye,tongue examination, etc to design appropriate treatment programs for each guest. It includes understanding your dosha imbalance, specific treatment plans, dietary recommendations, prakriti assessment, lifestyle modifications to be followed back in daily life.

Counseling: More than a diagnosis

Each retreat begins with a comprehensive first consultation, discussing your health history, lifestyle, mental welfare and even sleep patterns to understand your unique health condition.

Based on this, an analog program has been developed which includes:

  • Authentic ayurvedic therapies.
  • Individual ayurvedic diet plan
  • Yoga and meditation which is specific for your situation
  • Herbal medicines and lifestyle recommendations

Healing Therapy: Customised for your body type

Ayurveda treatments are mainly of two types: Shamana & Shodhana . Shamana includes pacification of doshas through external therapies as well as internal medications. Shodhana includes elimination or detoxification.Detoxification is attained by Panchakarma- five treatments which aid in detoxifying the body and restoring the balance in doshas. In the Natika Ayurveda Resort ,a leading Ayurveda resort Thrissur, every treatment is designed according to your imbalance. For example, if you are suffering from joint pain due to an imbalance in vatha, treatments such as Kizhi treatments ,oil application, etc are prescribed.If your goal is weight management or metabolic balance, special fasting treatments can be introduced under the doctor’s supervision. If your body needs rejuvenation, specific treatments and medications such as njavarakizhi, ksheeradhara, etc are prescribed along with internal ghee administration.

One of the biggest benefits of Natika's Ayurveda Retreat is the traditional Wellness Plan. On departing, the guests receive personal guidance to continue their Ayurvedic journey back at home. It includes recommended herbal medications, diet recommendations, daily yoga routine and stress management practices.

Diet as Medicine

In Ayurveda it is said that proper food can also act as a preventive & curative medicine. The diet doctor makes a customised diet plan after the first consultation and provides you dietary recommendations to be followed back home during final consultation. Food is prepared fresh using organic ingredients and is arranged according to the doshas vatha ,pitha & kapha in a buffet manner. Chefs works closely with Ayurvedic doctors to accommodate the changes based on the seasonal variations and treatment progresses.There are six tastes explained in ayurveda such as sweet, sour,salty,pungent, bitter & astringent. Sweet,sour & salty taste helps in balancing the vatha dosha; sweet,bitter & astringent helps in pitha balance; pungent, astringent & bitter helps in restoration of kapha imbalance.According to this principle food is being prepared and arranged according to the doshas.Thus you are not just eating for joy, whereas every bite supports your treatment.
