How does inpatient (IPD) admission work?

  • After hours: Initial assessment by resident doctor / RMO, then similar steps follow.
What about emergencies or medico-legal cases?

Emergencies are treated immediately. For medico-legal cases, police are informed, and documentation (MLC register) is maintained. Unidentified patients are labelled “UNKNOWN” and treated, with identity updated later.

What if there is no bed available?

A waiting list is maintained, and you are called when a bed is free.

Treatment & Packages

Do I need prior tests before Ayurvedic treatment?

In many cases, yes. We may recommend blood tests, imaging, or other modern diagnostics for safety and to guide therapy.

Can I customize a retreat package or combination of therapies?

Yes. All our Panchakarma and specialty packages are flexible. After a consultation, our doctors can tailor the schedule to your needs.

How long before I see results?

Every individual’s response is different. Some may notice improvements in days or weeks, while chronic conditions may require longer duration and sustained follow-up.

Are Ayurvedic therapies safe to use with my existing conventional medicines?

In most cases yes. But it is crucial you share full medical history and current medications so our doctors can plan therapies safely and avoid interactions.

What kind of diet is recommended during treatment?

A light, easily digestible, sattvic (pure) diet is generally advised. We avoid heavy, spicy, oily foods. Specific diet regimens are part of your treatment package depending on condition and dosha balance.

Can I continue yoga or strenuous exercise during treatment?

We discourage heavy physical activity during therapy. Gentle yoga, meditation, and slow walking are often recommended. Our doctors will advise what is safe for your condition.

Specific Programs & Logistics

What packages do you offer?

We offer Panchakarma retreats (for mental health, skin rejuvenation, hair regrowth, pre-conception, etc.) and disease-specific packages like Vaman, Virechan, and Shodhan Basti.

How many days should the retreat be?

Many programs begin with a 3-day / 2-night format. Longer programs may be recommended depending on condition severity.

Do you provide room types and facilities?
