Kerala is as much known for its Ayurvedic rejuvenation and therapeutic programmes as for its theme destinations. Today, there are government approved Ayurvedic health resorts, Ayurvedic centres and hotels that offer these programmes, across the length and breadth of the state. Set in natural locales, these resorts not only restore you to good health, but help you return with a glow that lasts all the year through.

Programmes include, in addition to therapies, herbal and oil massages, herbal/medicated steam baths, special diets, yoga and meditation. However, your schedule of programmes will be prescribed only after a physician examines you and studies your health history. Moreover, being rooted in nature, Ayurvedic regimes have no side effects.
