Ayurveda, the science of life, stems from the Vedic civilization of India and stands as the most ancient and comprehensive health system in the world. The term Ayurveda combines two Sanskrit words – ‘Ayus’ which means life, and ‘Veda’ which means knowledge or science.

“Ayurveda is eternal, without beginning and end, because the laws of life are universal and timeless ".              - Charak Samhita -

Ayurveda, based on the timeless knowledge for enlivening the unlimited inner intelligence of mind and body has been practiced in India since thousands of years; it has been passed on from generation to generation as an oral tradition and later also in the written form. Since in recent centuries the holistic approach of Ayurveda became lost, even in India mainly a fragmented form has been practiced in recent times.

At the end of the 1970s the Indian sage Maharishi Mahesh Yogi inspired and initiated the revival of Ayurveda. Under his guidance a number of India's most renowned and experienced Ayurvedic physicians came together to share their knowledge, to integrate the proven methods of the various family traditions and to restore the science of Ayurveda to its original wholeness.

In addition to this the guardians of long held secret formulas and procedures in many traditional Ayurvedic families were motivated by Maharishi to share their wisdom for the first time. By now Ayurveda has spread throughout the world and is recognized and practiced worldwide as a unique, holistic and most profound health system.

Ayurveda at Maitreyi starts with a personal consultation by a Vaidya (physician).
The Vaidya will assess your health requirements; will give personal recommendations and the specific treatments for the week. We are fortunate that the location of the Vedic Village is close to several of the most reputed and famous Ayurvedic centers of South India and we therefore will be able to provide authentic treatments in its traditionally pure form.
Ayurvedic treatments at Maitreyi focus mainly on preventive health care - for chronic and serious ailments we recommend Maharishi Ayurveda clinics or any of the reputed, traditional Ayurvedic Centers and hospitals. Moreover at Maitreyi, in order to be able to provide a holistic and complete experience for our guests we conduct treatments for only a limited number of persons at any one time, depending on how many sessions each individual is prescribed by the doctor. This allows the doctor and technicians to give exclusive attention and focus on each individual and thus the real benefit of the traditional approach is maximized.
