AYURVEDA
Pavitra
Ayurveda has a 5000 year old tradition of cultivating health and wellness. Based on the principle that three natural forces reside in the human body: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. When these doshas are in balance, we enjoy health and harmony. Effective therapeutic treatments are employed to release blockages so that Qi – the basic energy of life – can flow freely again.
To offer guests a truly authentic experience, Ayurvedic treatments take place in the resort’s own Ayurvedic temple, designed and built by Indian craftsmen. Originating in Kerala, the ancient Indian philosophy and holistic approach of well-being known as Ayurveda means “the art of living wisely.” At BodyHoliday Saint Lucia, the art of Ayurvedic therapies – including a range of massages and facials using warm oils and time-honoured techniques – are offered to revive the body, calm the mind, bring balance, and are tailored to suit each guest’s individual needs.
