The Healing Heritage of Ayurveda at Kumarakom Lake Resort
Kumarakom Lake Resort is not any other luxurious hotel of Kerala, but an opportunity to catch a beautiful slice of mythic Kerala. One of the finest boutique resorts in India, this luxury resort has been impressively designed in exclusive traditional Kerala style, giving complete modern comfort to the guests. Central to the experience is Ayurmana—the resort's famous award-winning Ayurveda Spa—a testimony to the healing traditions of this ancient science.
Ayurmana: An Ayurvedic Spa
Ayurmana is no ordinary spa, but a 200-year-old nalukettu, which is a homestead of traditional Kerala. The same was moved and relocated with as much care as could be within the premises of the very resort. This heritage building belonged to the Chathamangalathu Mana and was a family home of great Ayurvedic physicians, and this very tradition is carried on at Ayurmana by providing an authentic Ayurvedic treatment steeped in ancient tradition for its guests.
Be it relaxation, rejuvenation, or even the cure of certain maladies, Ayurmana offers a whole menu of treatments to suit every demand.
The Essence of Ayurveda: Balancing the Tridosha
Ayurveda means "science of life." It is based on three basic energies or doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These doshas come from the five elements of nature and control all physical and mental activity in the body of a human being. When balanced, they maintain health and harmony in the body; when out of balance, disease, and discomfort.
At Ayurmana, experienced Ayurvedic practitioners assess each guest's unique constitution and design personalized treatments to re-balance the tridoshas. It may be Abhyangam—full body oil massage—which pacifies Vata dosha with its strokes, or detoxifying Udwarthanam herbal powder massage to bring balance to Kapha, or perhaps a cooling Takradhara medicated buttermilk therapy to soothe Pitta. Each treatment at Ayurmana is tailor-made to meet the individual's needs.
Rejuvenation Through Traditional Ayurveda Treatments
The Ayurveda Spa at Kumarakom Lake Resort offers a host of treatments, ranging from relaxing massages to therapeutic procedures for the rejuvenation of both body and mind. One of the most popular therapies practiced here is Panchakarma. This is an intensive detoxification program that purifies the body by removing the accumulated toxins. These five procedures combined are called Panchakarma: Vamana—therapeutic vomiting; Virechana—purgation; Snehavasthi—medicated oil enema; Kashayavasti—herbal decoction enema; and Nasyam—nasal.
These are treatments not only for the ill but also for the healthy who want to feel better. Panchakarma, when done at Ayurmana, would cleanse the body and refresh the mind and spirit. It is a deep rejuvenation process.
A Luxury Ayurvedic Experience
The very mention of Kumarakom Lake Resort has connotations associated with luxury, overflowing into the Ayurvedic experience. Ayurmana features heritage architecture and a tranquil setting that offers guests a luxurious backdrop in which to soak themselves in the healing traditions of Ayurveda. Treatments are carried out by a group of well-trained therapists who use only the best herbal oils, medicinal plants, and natural ingredients to ensure that every therapy is not only effective but also indulgent.
Besides these therapeutic treatments, various beauty care procedures are also offered by Ayurmana's Ayurveda Beauty Clinic, which was once patronized by the royal princesses of Kerala. Designed not only to enhance physical beauty but also for the promotion of overall well-being, herbal extracts, fresh fruits, and natural products were being used.
