EUROPEAN AYURVEDA IN THE HEART OF THE ALPS – FOR A HEALING HOLIDAY WITH A DIFFERENCE

THE STORY

You sip your tea and look out towards the Alps, you’ve never breathed air this fresh or taken time to watch the shadows of trees dance in the cool mountain breeze. Here, you feel at ease, your spirit content. You stroll through the blooming rose garden, inhale the sweet scents and exhale your cares. You’re back at the resort and it’s time for Udvartana: a herbal powder massage, otherwise known as utter bliss.

Big, overindulgent meals are your vice, you’re apprehensive about trying new, healthy, vegetable-based dishes, but you’ve made it this far, so you give European Ayurveda cuisine a chance, and are pleasantly surprised! The creativity and care that has gone into preparing each meal is outstanding.

You retire to your suite, while away time on the balcony before succumbing to the Land of Nod. One blink, and the sun is shining, did morning really come around that quickly? You’re up, refreshed and ready for morning Yoga… Namaste!

CONSULTATION AND TREATMENT

Complementary medicine, Ayurvedic medicine and traditional Chinese medicine combined with diagnosis and cutting-edge treatments, all tailored to the Western world.

HEALING SPIRIT

MEDICAL CARE

Conventional medical diagnosis and treatment complement the Ayurveda services nicely. Medical check-ups, GP services, emergency medical care, non-invasive diagnostic measures and laboratory testing.

YOGA AND MEDITATION

Yoga harmonises mind, body and spirit as well as balancing the breath and body. Meditation brings about a clearer view of creation and existence – it guides us towards the true self and its needs. Specially developed Yoga techniques cater for European physical and emotional needs.

EXERCISE AND REGENERATION

The right level of tension and relaxation forms the basis for a life in balance and good physical health. The musculoskeletal system is a particular weak spot in Western society. Based on medical research, European Ayurveda® has developed a unique exercise and regeneration programme.
