FOR AN AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCE PERUMBAYIL AYURVEDA MANA THRISSUR
Be prepared to let go of all worldly traps when you sign up for a detox programme here. This 20-room property prides itself on following the rules of ayurveda without exception. A team of senior vaidyas supervises your diagnosis, treatments and therapies, which may change depending on your reception and reaction to them. While the majority of patients come for treatment of serious conditions like arthritis, psoriasis, post-chemo and post-cancer care, the retreat also offers packages for weight loss and beauty. Guests can walk around the property and help in looking after the vechur cows that yield milk used in medication. The food is completely organic, with most of the vegetables grown on campus and served on copper, zinc and tin plates and bowls, which are believed to have medicinal value. And if you need more incentive, this is where South Indian cinema’s superstars, from Rajinikanth to Mammootty, come for their annual rejuvenation. CNT TIP: The retreat closes every summer for renovations, so plan your trip accordingly. (www. ayurvedamana.com; from 5,450 per person per night)
