TESTIMONIALS 2025
January 1, 2025
Dear Vaidyagrama family,
It has been a privilege to spend Christmas community lunch and New Year with you. The Christmas community lunch, the singing, and especially the cake were so touching. Dr. Om has been available to us for the silliest of issues as well. His open and friendly demeanor allows one to relax and share one's woes. The powerful chanting, morning and evening, has been an amazing experience. The treatments are undertaken with a lot of sacredness, which never failed to touch me. Special thanks to Vincy, who looked after me as if I were a baby. So much love and joy poured out throughout the process. For me, food and water were difficult to get used to, though I understand the thought behind the preparations. The ambience, the community spirit, and the sustainability Vision surpass all other such establishments that I have seen thus far. I pray that this model flourishes and is replicated all over the world. Kudos to these knowledgeable yogis, healing the world and all of you. Deep gratitude for what you bring.
Warm regards,

My treatment had many positives and one negative, unfortunately. The issue of chronic pain prevented me from making the most of it and completing in the time I had predicted. I will take care of all the learning I gained here. Thank you to everyone who welcomed me so warmly.

Dear Vaidyagrama staff,
Thank you for a great healing experience. Overall, my experience was very positive. The entire staff was friendly. They really care about the patients and treat them with a lot of care. Their care for customers shines through. The dining staff were also great. I especially liked that they were strict with the diet, and I enjoyed a friendly back-and-forth when I asked for extra food and they denied. Overall, the atmosphere and calmness were a great catalyst for both mental and physical healing.
The doctors were extremely knowledgeable and provided great care. The Satsangs and other activities were good to keep me from being too homesick. I made great friends whom I hope to stay in touch with. Finally, as this establishment looks to continuously grow, I would like to offer a thought to make this place even better. On the administrative side, it would be great to have formal acknowledgments. There were a couple of instances where I thought my requests would be taken care of, but I had to follow up multiple times for certain actions to be taken. There should be a system to track, acknowledge, and fulfill the requests.

I feel physically, mentally, spiritually refreshed. Big gratitude to Vaidya Dr. Ramanandan, who is an excellent doctor and understood my needs deeply and gave me inspiration. Big thank you to all the other doctors (Dr. Aparna), therapists, house cleaners and staff. My greatest respect for this healing village and its founders. I pray that your life is blessed!

Over the past few years, we were told by our friends to join vaidyagrama. Now being there, we understand why they were too enthusiastic about it. We feel the same. It's not only the excellent care by Dr. Ramanandan, the daily visits by Dr. Sajna with her sweet smile and the therapists’ good hands, but it’s also the quiet atmosphere of Vaidyagrama village which is healing. Thank you all.

This is my 4th visit to Vaidyagrama. I am always amazed at the love shown through all the staff’s actions …from the kitchen staff, doctors, treatment girls and room cleaners. They truly help make this a healing place and he lp me. I'm happy to call some of these wonderful people, friends.

This is my first time visiting Vaidyagrama. I didn’t know what to expect. I was immersed in a very caring bubble that I will truly miss when I leave. My healing includes my body, mind and spirit. After my husband died in 2024, Vaidyagrama was the warm hug that I needed. The staff, from doctors, the treatment girls, to cleaners and gardeners, were all so caring. I hope to return.

OM NAMAH SHIVAAY!
Today is the time to check out. We enjoyed our stay at Vaidyagrama. With this second visit, we have made many more friends, not to mention last year’s friends. Our group is becoming a livelier core group, and we hope to remain loyal. People do complain, but they should not compare this to a 5-star hotel. Everybody does their best, and most importantly, they are here for your health. I would like to see some inclusion of North Indian food. Everybody here is great, and you can see that in people’s smiles. See you in December 2025. Kudos to Dr. Ramkumar!

What an incredibly healing and deeply transformative 3 weeks I've had here at Vaidyagrama. I arrived with a wild & stressed pulse, full of anxiety and confusion about my life and my health. I fell into trust with the deeply healing process of all the doctors who gently led me through. The care, the attention and guidance were everything I needed and even more than I expected. As my body healed and I lost 9kg – my mind also healed, being able to listen to the wisdom of the doctors, especially the discussions with Dr Ramkumar, have changed the way I think. All diseases start in the mind, and my mind finally understands how to be healthy and my body follows. I will return next year. Thank you to every single person here for the health and love.

Being cared for by such giving, warm and caring people has been so nurturing through my time at Vaidyagrama. It has been a wonderful, calm place to come to from the general business and demands of day-to-day living. It has been just great to stop, reflect, be still, while undergoing such a deeply healing process. But mostly, it is the people I have come into contact with while being here, that I will take home in my heart, while appreciating the deeper principles of this space, Vaidyagrama. Punarnava is what that stands for with practice. It restores my faith in humanity – Now isn’t that something that’s deeply precious and healing! Thank you to the Vaidyagrama community.

To the extraordinary vaidyagrama family team,
My deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for making my stay in your unique village of healing, such a wholesome and enjoyable experience, rejuvenating my body, revitalising my mind and inspiring my soul. My special thanks to Dr Ramkumar for the benevolent and enlightening interactions, to Geetha Mohandas for her carrying commitment and enduring personality, and Aparna for a most cordial welcome.
I was equally impressed by the medical knowledge and practical wisdom of Dr Harikrishnan and also the professionalism of Dr Sajna, Dr Anagha and Dr Dhanya. The holistic treatment given by all the charming therapists contributes to my healing process. All my needs were taken care of, optimally by the staff (administrative, cleaning, laundry, etc). The culture of empathy and loving is so infectious that it melts the hearts of patients from across the globe, with very interesting biographies, but all sharing a deep interest and love for India. In a nutshell, my vaidyagrama experience was truly heartwarming. I shall certainly recommend it to my friends in India and abroad. May you continue to flourish…

What a great place to see in the new year and start changing the way I live! Vaidyagrama is truly an inspiration and it restores my faith in humanity. The care that goes to the patients, staff, animals, and the land is outstanding, with everything working in harmony. This is an amazing and massive achievement, and I feel privileged to have been able to come here. Many, many thanks to all the staff for taking care of me. Loved the food, loved the treatments, loved all the talks and activities, and loved the calm and peace of this place. Special thanks to the wonderful therapists and my main doctors, the beautiful Dr. Pavithra and Dr. Harikumar. Wishing Vaidyagrama all the best for the future. May you continue to flourish and keep living the dream.

An immense feeling of gratitude towards all who cared for me during the last 3 weeks. Dr Ramadas, Dr Aparna, Dr Sajna, Dr Ardent, thank you for your care and support. Of course, to all the therapists in my illam, Vishnupriya, Athira. I have been especially grateful to have been in such an uplifting and sattvic environment, and have felt nourished not only on a physical, but more importantly on a spiritual level. Thank you to Dr Ramkumar for the deeply inspiring Satsangs in particular, but to all those who spoke at Satsangs, I gained some insight. The chanting was a blessing. I hope to return. Many blessings to you all for your service.

Coming back to Vaidyagrama for the second time is like coming home, here it is not just about herbs and detoxification to heal the body but about reconnecting with our soul, guiding our minds, and resetting our natural clocks to the rhythm of Nature. Vaidyagrama is a true healing sanctuary in pursuit of a Vedic cause. A place to heal heart, body, mind and soul. I loved the daily poojas, Homas, where we can gather to experience one of the ancient Vedic cultures. I always tell my friends about this place and will come back again and again. Thank you for creating and maintaining this Vedic space and may you blossom and flourish more! Thank you to Dr. Ramadas and all the treating doctors.

Thank you to the wonderful team of doctors who looked after me during my 3-week visit. The amazing doctors who attended to every one of my needs were Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Anupama, Dr. Pavithra, Dr. Mojin and Dr. Adarsha. This is my 4th visit, and it will not be forgotten. The doctors were tremendously kind and thoughtful, which helped brighten my days. They constantly reassured me through challenging moments and patiently and attentively answered every one of my questions, no matter how mundane. The therapists were highly skilled, and the treatments were extremely beneficial. Every encounter with the people here always brought a smile and they checked on my well-being. What stands out most is that there are no egos here. Everyone acts in a selfless way. There is purity and innocence here that you rarely see in our modern, busy, hectic lives. My health issues are already showing much improvement, and as with my previous visits, the healing will continue when I return home. Thank you.

Dear Vaidyagrama team,
Thank you so much for all the care and support you have shown me during my time here. I learned so much during my stay about trust, surrender, adaptability and faith. Everyone adapted to the ups and downs with much care and attention, and I am deeply grateful. I had a wonderful experience in treatments with Nimi, Krishnapriya, Greeshma, Princy, Vincy, and Bindu. They all did fantastic jobs with the treatments as well as with food preparation and other services. Chembakavalli was a beautiful ray of sunshine each time she came and cleaned my room. She made my day every time she came, especially when I was sick with fever. Dr. Om Prakash, Dr. Ramanandan and Dr. Vinod were all phenomenal in my care. Dr. Prateek was also a wonderful support. He had great communication, would check in regularly, gave helpful information, and made sure things got done when requested.
A few pieces of feedback: When I arrived, I did not get an orientation, and then I got sick, so I didn’t know how things were supposed to go or where things were on the property. It would be good to make sure everyone gets a tour some time and a chance to learn the procedures when they arrive. (The whiteboards were very helpful.)
Reception appears to have a lot on their plate and would often forget to make important requests because of that. Maybe more people at the front with specific jobs—room requests/ calls/ tours /orientation, tech /Wi-Fi, etc.
Communication was sometimes lacking with doctors, therapists, and staff. It is fine for things to be delayed, but it would be helpful if we were notified about it as much as possible. I am so grateful for this opportunity and to have met all of you. Overall, my stay was beautiful, and I felt lucky to have been under all your care. Thank you for all that you do for this community.
With gratitude,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
Happy today and thank you once again for a wonderful experience, rich in many ways. It was my 6th
Time; even though you may feel like a regular, you always learn something new about life and yourself. Thank you to all the people involved in making the stay special. Dr Ramadas, Dr Anagha and Dr Sajna for looking after me so well. I am so in awe of how the Centre is evolving, planting vegetables, forest, etc. End of December or by January is a very busy time of the year with many people and this is difficult to manage. I found at times there was too much noise. There is a bench next to room 305 and people come to chat here and use their phones. I love music, but every evening from 7:30 to 8:30, there is a very loud singing and chanting in Brahma Kamalam when you are trying to calm down in the evening. It is very disturbing. The internet in the rooms was very poor and slow. At 1000 Rupees per day you need a constant flow. People gathering and talking in the workplace is disturbing too. Thank you for the special time and I look forward to next year. All affections!

Dear Vaidyagrama team,
A heartfelt thank you for your care and support. It was my first visit and felt so peaceful during my 21-day stay here. Nature, serenity, humility, purity, everything touched my heart. I liked the morning prayers, Satsangs the most. Although my illness recovery will take more time, I am hopeful. A special thanks to Dr Aparna who was taking care of me to ensure nothing wrong can happen.
I am grateful to Dr Ramanandan and Dr Ardent not only for looking after my health issues, but also the mental/ personal relationship to ensure the overall healing of mind, body and soul is maintained. My only request to the Management would be to retain the authenticity and serenity of the place. Keeping the big trees and greeneries as much as possible, so with growing members of houses for the community people do not lose the originality and authenticity of the place. Again, many thanks to all the concerned doctors and supporting staff. I would like to come back here again.

Had a very pleasant experience and would love to be back. Dr Ramadas, Dr Aparna, Dr Sajna and Dr Ardent were very helpful. Thank you, Dr Ramadas, for everything. Loved the food, the activities, etc. My only complaint would be how the booking was handled. I was guaranteed to get a room at the time of booking, and got here to something opposite. They said the reason was that the other patients had prior bookings, and in conversation with 4 – 5 other patients, I was told they got here in lesser time than me. Just a bit more professionalism with the booking is needed. Maybe assign more than one person for this. I would have postponed my treatment had I known. So this was the only hiccup. So please don’t assure anything which is not fulfilled later. Highly non-professional. Therapists Athira and Vishnupriya were amazing too. Except for the rooms, my experience here was good. Thank you.

Dear Vaidyagrama team,
It has been such a pleasure for me to meet so many of you, spend time here, and be treated so wonderfully! I have heard of you for years, and now I know and appreciate so many of you that I interacted with. Thank you to so many – including buggy drivers, food delivery and management. A special thank you to Dr. Om Prakash my doctor, and Sindhu my massage therapist. I loved my time here and expect to return for more treatment.

Dear Everyone at Vaidyagrama,
Thank you for a very special experience, my first in the Ayurveda philosophy. I think I have benefited enormously from the treatment, the silence, and the enforced inactivity— all of which I found difficult to begin with but grew to appreciate due to the thought and care that went into it. All the staff were a delight, and the rooms in Cluster 5 were spacious and comfortable. It was great to have the choice of eating alone in the dining room. The question now is - Will I be disciplined enough to continue with the treatments at home in France, where the temptations of food and wine are great? We’ll see…
PS: I reorganized the library into sections and languages. It would be good if it continued. Perhaps a note asking people to replace books where they found them? Thank you all again.

Dear team,
What a great experience for me with so many results! I didn’t expect anything specific, so I am really surprised and happy. The kindness of the entire team is fantastic. The room is comfortable. The most difficult for me was the lights everywhere, which were painful for my migraines, and second, the noise at night—dogs, phones, music... I hope I can come back soon. Thanks a lot!

Gratitude to all the gardeners, cooks, housekeepers, therapists, secretaries, receptionists and doctors. Thank you for this exceptional healing place. The only problem is there is no translation for an existing conference! I hope in French one day this will be possible because I couldn't understand the essence of the healing. Indian English is different. I miss you all very much and take care of yourselves. A special thanks to Dr. Harikumar and Dr. Mojin Mathew.

Dear Vaidyagrama,
Wow! What can I say? This is my first trip to India, and I came here! Although the Panchakarma (PK) I planned for did not happen, my intentions to surrender to my time here did. I planned to do a 30-day PK, but on my fourth day here, I got a nasty ear infection that required multiple trips to the hospital in town. That, along with a couple of other personal things that came up in the first week, threw a wrench in my plan to do PK. But I surrendered! And did the best I could to navigate these unforeseen obstacles. Now, I will be returning home after only being here for 13 days (yes, my ear is well enough for me to fly). However, I would not have managed any of these incidents without the love, compassion, and grace of everyone at Vaidyagrama. I feel beyond blessed for every moment spent here and am so grateful for the care I received. I felt like everyone here was genuinely looking out for me. Thank you, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Sajna, and especially Dr. Vishaga Lakshmi. Thank you to all the other doctors who checked in on me, followed up on my well-being, and cared for my ear. I am also grateful to everyone behind the scenes who makes it possible for the doctors and therapists to take care of us—housekeeping, laundry, IT, cooks, taxi drivers, reception, the financial office... the list goes on. Everyone I interacted with was so precious. Thank you. I could go on and on about my time here. It was splendid, minus the ear infection and other things that came up. I am grateful for the friends I met here and am in awe of how small this world really is.
Thank you, Vaidyagrama, for being at the center of this Ayurvedic healing village and for healing and touching lives across the globe. I look forward to returning in the future and successfully completing PK here, and hopefully many more to come.
In love and gratitude,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
It is hardly believable that 3 weeks have gone by, flown by, filled with love and kindness. The support through the healing process has been as always generous and kind. I am sad to leave and even sadder having been told to only come back in 2 years unless I do some mischief. I might just have to do that to be able to come back earlier. Thank you all at Vaidyagrama for another special and healing time here at this magical place. With love and gratitude

This is our second visit to Vaidyagrama; we gladly decided to come again for numerous reasons – all of which have been justified on this visit. We are very impressed with the quality of care and warmth that is now a hallmark of Vaidyagrama. The role of Dr Ramanandan is truly impressive. The professional quality of care and attention from Dr Ardent, Dr Aparna, Dr Sajna made our stay memorable. We look forward to our next visit and our return to the Vaidyagrama community.

Namaskar! This was our first experience of Panchakarma and it was such an experience! This sanctuary is not only healing our bodies, but also our minds and our souls. We had an incredible experience here, not always easy, but we are fully thankful for the kindness and comprehension of all the staff. Special thanks to our Illam 2 therapists during our stay. Their smiles and kindness were so helpful when we were struggling with our emotions. This place is unique, and we hope it will remain as such. Thank you to all the staff in vaidyagrama for the care. Dr. Ramadas for his wisdom. Thank you for all the kindness and powerful poojas! This place is never forgotten in our bodies/minds and hearts and souls.

Vaidyagrama is a place for healing the body and mind. I feel rejuvenated and peaceful towards the end of my treatment. It happens every time I come here. The serene atmosphere, friendly staff and especially the kind, caring, efficient therapists make this place a Home. Temples, prayer sessions, special pujas and celebration of festivals and Cow puja make me feel like I’m in a spiritual abode. The doctors are knowledgeable and full of humility. They have satisfactory answers to all questions related to treatment, spirituality and any other. Satsangs with Dr Ramkumar are a treat. I'm grateful to Dr Ramadas for his kindness and extraordinary skill of explaining anything in simple and practical terms. He is very unique and special thanks to him. He is very gentle, knowledgeable and answers all my questions and concerns with patience. Thanks to Dr Om Prakash for spending his valuable time with me to address some specific issues. Finally, I'm happy to meet and interact with people from all over the globe. I feel inspired with the dedication, devotion, and commitment here.

This human being is a guest house. Every morning, a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness of the camera as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they are a crowd of sorrows who violently sweep your house empty of all its furniture, still treat each guest honorably. He may be bringing you out for the same new delight. The dance of thought, the shame, the malice met them at the door laughing and invited them in. Be grateful for whoever comes because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.
Deepest gratitude for the original Vision of Vaidyagrama to support and heal so many through the gift of Ayurveda. To each staff member who breathes life and love into this land, all who came bravely for treatments to honour their “guest house”—these bodies we are all so lucky to have! Thank you, Dr. Mojin and Dr. Anupama for your gentle care, and of course Dr. Ramanandan for the birds-eye macro chanting all the way! Sandhya, Kesiya, Athira, Aparna, Krishna Priya, Keerthi, and the whole VG family—Thank you for all you do! Blessings to all for a wonderful and happy 2025. See you back in Cluster 4 next year!

Dear VG Team,
This is my 4th stay here. My first was in 2018, and I missed a couple of years due to COVID. Each time I leave, I feel incredible. This was my first stay in the new block, and I found it very enjoyable. The rooms are spacious, and the therapists and doctors were friendly and helpful. It felt like our own little world within the VG grounds. Durga Leela always helps us get here and keeps us informed, which makes everything easier. As always, the staff was incredibly kind, thoughtful and patient. The only challenge was the noise in the dining room. It got rather loud with the dishwashing, making it difficult to hear anything. However, the staff in the dining hall was efficient. What a wonderful experience once again. I thank all my therapists for their kindness and patience, and my doctors for their expertise and care. So much growth, and more to come! Yet, you still maintain your clean ecological standards and Vision. It’s an honor to have such an experience. Thank you and keep up the amazing work of changing lives.

Dear VG,
This is my 5th visit here, coming from the USA. I have been shown a new way to help the body stay strong. As someone in the health field, I have not only felt better and more balanced in both mind and body, but I have also learned what might help others. The staff was the kindest, most compassionate, and intelligent group of doctors and treatment workers. I hope to take home some of their calm! I am grateful for the new block and appreciate the cleanliness and openness to native practices. People who care while curing is an unbelievable combination. I wish you all the health and kindness you have given me.

I have felt so much care during my 3.5 weeks of stay. So many kind and loving healers and caregivers. I loved it so much about myself—body, mind, emotions, and spirit. I am inspired by you all and integrate so much of what I have learned into my daily life back in the US. Gratitude for your patience, love and dedication to helping us all to be balanced and healed.
Much love,

Dear Vaidyagrama,
This is my third stay here with Durga Leela for Panchakarma. I haven’t been here for 8 years and was amazed to see the growth and how it has been done so beautifully. The staff are professional and kind. I am deeply touched by the kindness, gentleness and efficiency in responding to requests. I love the food, the walking paths, the cows, the cow pooja, and the Satsang and prayers. In the United States, I had a career working to protect the environment. To see your care for the land, animals, plants, trees, and how you practice the principles of sustainability makes my heart so happy. We in the United States could learn from you, as we have so much plastic and waste. My team of doctors and therapists were great. It didn’t matter who checked in with me or treated me; I was very well cared for. During my tour, I found that every day you feed people who are homeless. I love this gesture of kindness and compassion. I stayed in Cluster 5 and loved it. I preferred to eat meals in my room, and the staff was very accommodating. I found the dining room a bit noisy. My body, mind, and spirit leave happy and refreshed.
Namaste, thank you.

Now I have been here for the second time, and I go with tears in my eyes. I'm so thankful for this wonderful time here in Vaidyagrama. Everybody is doing an amazing job. When I came, it was like I’m coming home. The treatments, prayers, pujas, Satsang are nourishment for mind and body and spiritual growth. Special thanks to Dr Ramadas, Dr Aparna and also to Ivy for the wonderful Vedic Chant Satsang. I am filled with love and gratitude.

Dear Beloved Ones,
Heartfelt gratitude to all Vaidyagrama staff and Dr. Ramkumar. During the last three weeks of treatment, I felt completely taken care of, not only physically and emotionally but also spiritually. Thank you. As a patient in Block 5, I was under the care of extremely qualified doctors and therapists. Every detail was covered to my complete satisfaction. The maintenance staff were also very attentive, as were the reception staff. It will be a pleasure to return to Vaidyagrama when the time is right—I am already dreaming of my next visit. I plan to recommend this wholesome way of healing to everyone who is interested. It was wonderful to also discover how Vaidyagrama supports its local community. Keep up the great work. You are truly making a difference in the lives of many and positively affecting future generations. Cheers and congratulations.
Namaste,

Thank you all so much, such a healing, restorative time here. I feel better than when I arrived not only in body, but in mind and spirit. I look forward to bringing the many practices I have cultivated back home. Thank you for this beautiful gift and service you provide to all who come to Vaidyagrama.
With abundant gratitude,

My visit was hindered by my severe cough plus my buddy Mark couldn’t make it. But I met a couple of nice people and got some great treatments that made me feel wonderful.
Thank you!

This is my 5th or 6th visit. Sometimes I wonder why! The questions I ask in different ways, and I find, despite the language difficulties of the general staff, we communicate, and I end up with a soothing life-enhancing experience, and I return. The holistic healing offered the ecological statement made in this world of wasted dirt – an immaculately clean place where I find new energy. At the age of almost 80, that means a lot. There are so many and so much to be grateful for. My positive energy and wishes as you provide a very special healing place.

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
It has been a privilege to spend Christmas community lunch and New Year with you. The Christmas community lunch, the singing, and especially the cake were so touching. Dr. Om has been available to us for the silliest of issues as well. His open and friendly demeanor allows one to relax and share one's woes. The powerful chanting, morning and evening, has been an amazing experience. The treatments are undertaken with a lot of sacredness, which never failed to touch me. Special thanks to Vincy, who looked after me as if I were a baby. So much love and joy poured out throughout the process. For me, food and water were difficult to get used to, though I understand the thought behind the preparations. The ambience, the community spirit, and the sustainability Vision surpass all other such establishments that I have seen thus far. I pray that this model flourishes and is replicated all over the world. Kudos to these knowledgeable yogis, healing the world and all of you. Deep gratitude for what you bring.
Warm regards,

My treatment had many positives and one negative, unfortunately. The issue of chronic pain prevented me from making the most of it and completing in the time I had predicted. I will take care of all the learning I gained here. Thank you to everyone who welcomed me so warmly.

Dear Vaidyagrama staff,
Thank you for a great healing experience. Overall, my experience was very positive. The entire staff was friendly. They really care about the patients and treat them with a lot of care. Their care for customers shines through. The dining staff were also great. I especially liked that they were strict with the diet, and I enjoyed a friendly back-and-forth when I asked for extra food and they denied. Overall, the atmosphere and calmness were a great catalyst for both mental and physical healing.
The doctors were extremely knowledgeable and provided great care. The Satsangs and other activities were good to keep me from being too homesick. I made great friends whom I hope to stay in touch with. Finally, as this establishment looks to continuously grow, I would like to offer a thought to make this place even better. On the administrative side, it would be great to have formal acknowledgments. There were a couple of instances where I thought my requests would be taken care of, but I had to follow up multiple times for certain actions to be taken. There should be a system to track, acknowledge, and fulfill the requests.

I feel physically, mentally, spiritually refreshed. Big gratitude to Vaidya Dr. Ramanandan, who is an excellent doctor and understood my needs deeply and gave me inspiration. Big thank you to all the other doctors (Dr. Aparna), therapists, house cleaners and staff. My greatest respect for this healing village and its founders. I pray that your life is blessed!

Over the past few years, we were told by our friends to join vaidyagrama. Now being there, we understand why they were too enthusiastic about it. We feel the same. It's not only the excellent care by Dr. Ramanandan, the daily visits by Dr. Sajna with her sweet smile and the therapists’ good hands, but it’s also the quiet atmosphere of Vaidyagrama village which is healing. Thank you all.

This is my first time visiting Vaidyagrama. I didn’t know what to expect. I was immersed in a very caring bubble that I will truly miss when I leave. My healing includes my body, mind and spirit. After my husband died in 2024, Vaidyagrama was the warm hug that I needed. The staff, from doctors, the treatment girls, to cleaners and gardeners, were all so caring. I hope to return.

OM NAMAH SHIVAAY!
Today is the time to check out. We enjoyed our stay at Vaidyagrama. With this second visit, we have made many more friends, not to mention last year’s friends. Our group is becoming a livelier core group, and we hope to remain loyal. People do complain, but they should not compare this to a 5-star hotel. Everybody does their best, and most importantly, they are here for your health. I would like to see some inclusion of North Indian food. Everybody here is great, and you can see that in people’s smiles. See you in December 2025. Kudos to Dr. Ramkumar!

What an incredibly healing and deeply transformative 3 weeks I've had here at Vaidyagrama. I arrived with a wild & stressed pulse, full of anxiety and confusion about my life and my health. I fell into trust with the deeply healing process of all the doctors who gently led me through. The care, the attention and guidance were everything I needed and even more than I expected. As my body healed and I lost 9kg – my mind also healed, being able to listen to the wisdom of the doctors, especially the discussions with Dr Ramkumar, have changed the way I think. All diseases start in the mind, and my mind finally understands how to be healthy and my body follows. I will return next year. Thank you to every single person here for the health and love.

Being cared for by such giving, warm and caring people has been so nurturing through my time at Vaidyagrama. It has been a wonderful, calm place to come to from the general business and demands of day-to-day living. It has been just great to stop, reflect, be still, while undergoing such a deeply healing process. But mostly, it is the people I have come into contact with while being here, that I will take home in my heart, while appreciating the deeper principles of this space, Vaidyagrama. Punarnava is what that stands for with practice. It restores my faith in humanity – Now isn’t that something that’s deeply precious and healing! Thank you to the Vaidyagrama community.

To the extraordinary vaidyagrama family team,
My deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for making my stay in your unique village of healing, such a wholesome and enjoyable experience, rejuvenating my body, revitalising my mind and inspiring my soul. My special thanks to Dr Ramkumar for the benevolent and enlightening interactions, to Geetha Mohandas for her carrying commitment and enduring personality, and Aparna for a most cordial welcome.
I was equally impressed by the medical knowledge and practical wisdom of Dr Harikrishnan and also the professionalism of Dr Sajna, Dr Anagha and Dr Dhanya. The holistic treatment given by all the charming therapists contributes to my healing process. All my needs were taken care of, optimally by the staff (administrative, cleaning, laundry, etc). The culture of empathy and loving is so infectious that it melts the hearts of patients from across the globe, with very interesting biographies, but all sharing a deep interest and love for India. In a nutshell, my vaidyagrama experience was truly heartwarming. I shall certainly recommend it to my friends in India and abroad. May you continue to flourish…

What a great place to see in the new year and start changing the way I live! Vaidyagrama is truly an inspiration and it restores my faith in humanity. The care that goes to the patients, staff, animals, and the land is outstanding, with everything working in harmony. This is an amazing and massive achievement, and I feel privileged to have been able to come here. Many, many thanks to all the staff for taking care of me. Loved the food, loved the treatments, loved all the talks and activities, and loved the calm and peace of this place. Special thanks to the wonderful therapists and my main doctors, the beautiful Dr. Pavithra and Dr. Harikumar. Wishing Vaidyagrama all the best for the future. May you continue to flourish and keep living the dream.

An immense feeling of gratitude towards all who cared for me during the last 3 weeks. Dr Ramadas, Dr Aparna, Dr Sajna, Dr Ardent, thank you for your care and support. Of course, to all the therapists in my illam, Vishnupriya, Athira. I have been especially grateful to have been in such an uplifting and sattvic environment, and have felt nourished not only on a physical, but more importantly on a spiritual level. Thank you to Dr Ramkumar for the deeply inspiring Satsangs in particular, but to all those who spoke at Satsangs, I gained some insight. The chanting was a blessing. I hope to return. Many blessings to you all for your service.

Coming back to Vaidyagrama for the second time is like coming home, here it is not just about herbs and detoxification to heal the body but about reconnecting with our soul, guiding our minds, and resetting our natural clocks to the rhythm of Nature. Vaidyagrama is a true healing sanctuary in pursuit of a Vedic cause. A place to heal heart, body, mind and soul. I loved the daily poojas, Homas, where we can gather to experience one of the ancient Vedic cultures. I always tell my friends about this place and will come back again and again. Thank you for creating and maintaining this Vedic space and may you blossom and flourish more! Thank you to Dr. Ramadas and all the treating doctors.

Thank you to the wonderful team of doctors who looked after me during my 3-week visit. The amazing doctors who attended to every one of my needs were Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Anupama, Dr. Pavithra, Dr. Mojin and Dr. Adarsha. This is my 4th visit, and it will not be forgotten. The doctors were tremendously kind and thoughtful, which helped brighten my days. They constantly reassured me through challenging moments and patiently and attentively answered every one of my questions, no matter how mundane. The therapists were highly skilled, and the treatments were extremely beneficial. Every encounter with the people here always brought a smile and they checked on my well-being. What stands out most is that there are no egos here. Everyone acts in a selfless way. There is purity and innocence here that you rarely see in our modern, busy, hectic lives. My health issues are already showing much improvement, and as with my previous visits, the healing will continue when I return home. Thank you.

Dear Vaidyagrama team,
Thank you so much for all the care and support you have shown me during my time here. I learned so much during my stay about trust, surrender, adaptability and faith. Everyone adapted to the ups and downs with much care and attention, and I am deeply grateful. I had a wonderful experience in treatments with Nimi, Krishnapriya, Greeshma, Princy, Vincy, and Bindu. They all did fantastic jobs with the treatments as well as with food preparation and other services. Chembakavalli was a beautiful ray of sunshine each time she came and cleaned my room. She made my day every time she came, especially when I was sick with fever. Dr. Om Prakash, Dr. Ramanandan and Dr. Vinod were all phenomenal in my care. Dr. Prateek was also a wonderful support. He had great communication, would check in regularly, gave helpful information, and made sure things got done when requested.
A few pieces of feedback: When I arrived, I did not get an orientation, and then I got sick, so I didn’t know how things were supposed to go or where things were on the property. It would be good to make sure everyone gets a tour some time and a chance to learn the procedures when they arrive. (The whiteboards were very helpful.)
Reception appears to have a lot on their plate and would often forget to make important requests because of that. Maybe more people at the front with specific jobs—room requests/ calls/ tours /orientation, tech /Wi-Fi, etc.
Communication was sometimes lacking with doctors, therapists, and staff. It is fine for things to be delayed, but it would be helpful if we were notified about it as much as possible. I am so grateful for this opportunity and to have met all of you. Overall, my stay was beautiful, and I felt lucky to have been under all your care. Thank you for all that you do for this community.
With gratitude,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
Happy today and thank you once again for a wonderful experience, rich in many ways. It was my 6th
Time; even though you may feel like a regular, you always learn something new about life and yourself. Thank you to all the people involved in making the stay special. Dr Ramadas, Dr Anagha and Dr Sajna for looking after me so well. I am so in awe of how the Centre is evolving, planting vegetables, forest, etc. End of December or by January is a very busy time of the year with many people and this is difficult to manage. I found at times there was too much noise. There is a bench next to room 305 and people come to chat here and use their phones. I love music, but every evening from 7:30 to 8:30, there is a very loud singing and chanting in Brahma Kamalam when you are trying to calm down in the evening. It is very disturbing. The internet in the rooms was very poor and slow. At 1000 Rupees per day you need a constant flow. People gathering and talking in the workplace is disturbing too. Thank you for the special time and I look forward to next year. All affections!

Dear Vaidyagrama team,
A heartfelt thank you for your care and support. It was my first visit and felt so peaceful during my 21-day stay here. Nature, serenity, humility, purity, everything touched my heart. I liked the morning prayers, Satsangs the most. Although my illness recovery will take more time, I am hopeful. A special thanks to Dr Aparna who was taking care of me to ensure nothing wrong can happen.
I am grateful to Dr Ramanandan and Dr Ardent not only for looking after my health issues, but also the mental/ personal relationship to ensure the overall healing of mind, body and soul is maintained. My only request to the Management would be to retain the authenticity and serenity of the place. Keeping the big trees and greeneries as much as possible, so with growing members of houses for the community people do not lose the originality and authenticity of the place. Again, many thanks to all the concerned doctors and supporting staff. I would like to come back here again.

Had a very pleasant experience and would love to be back. Dr Ramadas, Dr Aparna, Dr Sajna and Dr Ardent were very helpful. Thank you, Dr Ramadas, for everything. Loved the food, the activities, etc. My only complaint would be how the booking was handled. I was guaranteed to get a room at the time of booking, and got here to something opposite. They said the reason was that the other patients had prior bookings, and in conversation with 4 – 5 other patients, I was told they got here in lesser time than me. Just a bit more professionalism with the booking is needed. Maybe assign more than one person for this. I would have postponed my treatment had I known. So this was the only hiccup. So please don’t assure anything which is not fulfilled later. Highly non-professional. Therapists Athira and Vishnupriya were amazing too. Except for the rooms, my experience here was good. Thank you.

I have heard of you for years, and now I know and appreciate so many of you that I interacted with. Thank you to so many – including buggy drivers, food delivery and management. A special thank you to Dr. Om Prakash my doctor, and Sindhu my massage therapist. I loved my time here and expect to return for more treatment.

Dear Everyone at Vaidyagrama,
Thank you for a very special experience, my first in the Ayurveda philosophy. I think I have benefited enormously from the treatment, the silence, and the enforced inactivity— all of which I found difficult to begin with but grew to appreciate due to the thought and care that went into it. All the staff were a delight, and the rooms in Cluster 5 were spacious and comfortable. It was great to have the choice of eating alone in the dining room. The question now is - Will I be disciplined enough to continue with the treatments at home in France, where the temptations of food and wine are great? We’ll see…
PS: I reorganized the library into sections and languages. It would be good if it continued. Perhaps a note asking people to replace books where they found them? Thank you all again.

Dear team,
What a great experience for me with so many results! I didn’t expect anything specific, so I am really surprised and happy. The kindness of the entire team is fantastic. The room is comfortable. The most difficult for me was the lights everywhere, which were painful for my migraines, and second, the noise at night—dogs, phones, music... I hope I can come back soon. Thanks a lot!

Gratitude to all the gardeners, cooks, housekeepers, therapists, secretaries, receptionists and doctors. Thank you for this exceptional healing place. The only problem is there is no translation for an existing conference! I hope in French one day this will be possible because I couldn't understand the essence of the healing. Indian English is different. I miss you all very much and take care of yourselves. A special thanks to Dr. Harikumar and Dr. Mojin Mathew.

Dear Vaidyagrama,
Wow! What can I say? This is my first trip to India, and I came here! Although the Panchakarma (PK) I planned for did not happen, my intentions to surrender to my time here did. I planned to do a 30-day PK, but on my fourth day here, I got a nasty ear infection that required multiple trips to the hospital in town. That, along with a couple of other personal things that came up in the first week, threw a wrench in my plan to do PK. But I surrendered! And did the best I could to navigate these unforeseen obstacles. Now, I will be returning home after only being here for 13 days (yes, my ear is well enough for me to fly). However, I would not have managed any of these incidents without the love, compassion, and grace of everyone at Vaidyagrama. I feel beyond blessed for every moment spent here and am so grateful for the care I received. I felt like everyone here was genuinely looking out for me. Thank you, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Sajna, and especially Dr. Vishaga Lakshmi. Thank you to all the other doctors who checked in on me, followed up on my well-being, and cared for my ear. I am also grateful to everyone behind the scenes who makes it possible for the doctors and therapists to take care of us—housekeeping, laundry, IT, cooks, taxi drivers, reception, the financial office... the list goes on. Everyone I interacted with was so precious. Thank you. I could go on and on about my time here. It was splendid, minus the ear infection and other things that came up. I am grateful for the friends I met here and am in awe of how small this world really is.
Thank you, Vaidyagrama, for being at the center of this Ayurvedic healing village and for healing and touching lives across the globe. I look forward to returning in the future and successfully completing PK here, and hopefully many more to come.
In love and gratitude,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
It is hardly believable that 3 weeks have gone by, flown by, filled with love and kindness. The support through the healing process has been as always generous and kind. I am sad to leave and even sadder having been told to only come back in 2 years unless I do some mischief. I might just have to do that to be able to come back earlier. Thank you all at Vaidyagrama for another special and healing time here at this magical place. With love and gratitude

We are very impressed with the quality of care and warmth that is now a hallmark of Vaidyagrama. The role of Dr Ramanandan is truly impressive. The professional quality of care and attention from Dr Ardent, Dr Aparna, Dr Sajna made our stay memorable. We look forward to our next visit and our return to the Vaidyagrama community.

Namaskar! This was our first experience of Panchakarma and it was such an experience! This sanctuary is not only healing our bodies, but also our minds and our souls. We had an incredible experience here, not always easy, but we are fully thankful for the kindness and comprehension of all the staff. Special thanks to our Illam 2 therapists during our stay. Their smiles and kindness were so helpful when we were struggling with our emotions. This place is unique, and we hope it will remain as such. Thank you to all the staff in vaidyagrama for the care. Dr. Ramadas for his wisdom. Thank you for all the kindness and powerful poojas! This place is never forgotten in our bodies/minds and hearts and souls.

Vaidyagrama is a place for healing the body and mind. I feel rejuvenated and peaceful towards the end of my treatment. It happens every time I come here. The serene atmosphere, friendly staff and especially the kind, caring, efficient therapists make this place a Home. Temples, prayer sessions, special pujas and celebration of festivals and Cow puja make me feel like I’m in a spiritual abode. The doctors are knowledgeable and full of humility. They have satisfactory answers to all questions related to treatment, spirituality and any other. Satsangs with Dr Ramkumar are a treat. I'm grateful to Dr Ramadas for his kindness and extraordinary skill of explaining anything in simple and practical terms. He is very unique and special thanks to him. He is very gentle, knowledgeable and answers all my questions and concerns with patience. Thanks to Dr Om Prakash for spending his valuable time with me to address some specific issues. Finally, I'm happy to meet and interact with people from all over the globe. I feel inspired with the dedication, devotion, and commitment here.

This human being is a guest house. Every morning, a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness of the camera as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they are a crowd of sorrows who violently sweep your house empty of all its furniture, still treat each guest honorably. He may be bringing you out for the same new delight. The dance of thought, the shame, the malice met them at the door laughing and invited them in. Be grateful for whoever comes because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.
Deepest gratitude for the original Vision of Vaidyagrama to support and heal so many through the gift of Ayurveda. To each staff member who breathes life and love into this land, all who came bravely for treatments to honour their “guest house”—these bodies we are all so lucky to have! Thank you, Dr. Mojin and Dr. Anupama for your gentle care, and of course Dr. Ramanandan for the birds-eye macro chanting all the way! Sandhya, Kesiya, Athira, Aparna, Krishna Priya, Keerthi, and the whole VG family—Thank you for all you do! Blessings to all for a wonderful and happy 2025. See you back in Cluster 4 next year!

Dear VG Team,
This is my 4th stay here. My first was in 2018, and I missed a couple of years due to COVID. Each time I leave, I feel incredible. This was my first stay in the new block, and I found it very enjoyable. The rooms are spacious, and the therapists and doctors were friendly and helpful. It felt like our own little world within the VG grounds. Durga Leela always helps us get here and keeps us informed, which makes everything easier. As always, the staff was incredibly kind, thoughtful and patient. The only challenge was the noise in the dining room. It got rather loud with the dishwashing, making it difficult to hear anything. However, the staff in the dining hall was efficient. What a wonderful experience once again. I thank all my therapists for their kindness and patience, and my doctors for their expertise and care. So much growth, and more to come! Yet, you still maintain your clean ecological standards and Vision. It’s an honor to have such an experience. Thank you and keep up the amazing work of changing lives.

Dear VG,
This is my 5th visit here, coming from the USA. I have been shown a new way to help the body stay strong. As someone in the health field, I have not only felt better and more balanced in both mind and body, but I have also learned what might help others. The staff was the kindest, most compassionate, and intelligent group of doctors and treatment workers. I hope to take home some of their calm! I am grateful for the new block and appreciate the cleanliness and openness to native practices. People who care while curing is an unbelievable combination. I wish you all the health and kindness you have given me.

I have felt so much care during my 3.5 weeks of stay. So many kind and loving healers and caregivers. I loved it so much about myself—body, mind, emotions, and spirit.

Dear Vaidyagrama,
This is my third stay here with Durga Leela for Panchakarma. I haven’t been here for 8 years and was amazed to see the growth and how it has been done so beautifully. The staff are professional and kind. I am deeply touched by the kindness, gentleness and efficiency in responding to requests. I love the food, the walking paths, the cows, the cow pooja, and the Satsang and prayers. In the United States, I had a career working to protect the environment. To see your care for the land, animals, plants, trees, and how you practice the principles of sustainability makes my heart so happy. We in the United States could learn from you, as we have so much plastic and waste. My team of doctors and therapists were great. It didn’t matter who checked in with me or treated me; I was very well cared for. During my tour, I found that every day you feed people who are homeless. I love this gesture of kindness and compassion. I stayed in Cluster 5 and loved it. I preferred to eat meals in my room, and the staff was very accommodating. I found the dining room a bit noisy. My body, mind, and spirit leave happy and refreshed.
Namaste, thank you.

Now I have been here for the second time, and I go with tears in my eyes. I'm so thankful for this wonderful time here in Vaidyagrama. Everybody is doing an amazing job. When I came, it was like I’m coming home. The treatments, prayers, pujas, Satsang are nourishment for mind and body and spiritual growth. Special thanks to Dr Ramadas, Dr Aparna and also to Ivy for the wonderful Vedic Chant Satsang. I am filled with love and gratitude.

Dear Beloved Ones,
Heartfelt gratitude to all Vaidyagrama staff and Dr. Ramkumar. During the last three weeks of treatment, I felt completely taken care of, not only physically and emotionally but also spiritually. Thank you. As a patient in Block 5, I was under the care of extremely qualified doctors and therapists. Every detail was covered to my complete satisfaction. The maintenance staff were also very attentive, as were the reception staff. It will be a pleasure to return to Vaidyagrama when the time is right—I am already dreaming of my next visit. I plan to recommend this wholesome way of healing to everyone who is interested. It was wonderful to also discover how Vaidyagrama supports its local community. Keep up the great work. You are truly making a difference in the lives of many and positively affecting future generations. Cheers and congratulations.
Namaste,

This is my 5th or 6th visit. Sometimes I wonder why! The questions I ask in different ways, and I find, despite the language difficulties of the general staff, we communicate, and I end up with a soothing life-enhancing experience, and I return. The holistic healing offered the ecological statement made in this world of wasted dirt – an immaculately clean place where I find new energy. At the age of almost 80, that means a lot. There are so many and so much to be grateful for. My positive energy and wishes as you provide a very special healing place.

This is my second time here, and God willing, it won't be the last. I can only thank you from the bottom of my heart for the love and care you all have given me, both last year and this time. I arrived feeling very unwell, and I am leaving feeling renewed, knowing I am and will stay well in body, mind, and spirit. Thank you for everything you have done for me. I am sad to be leaving, but I feel stronger and ready to go back into the world.Thank you!

March 02, 2024A beautiful and healing experience, thanks to the amazing doctors and team who so lovingly cared for me. At the start, there were some hard days, but everyone remained with me, caring for and meeting my needs. The devotion of the team towards the patients is something I have never seen before. Vaidyagrama is truly a healing village. The prayers, the people, the land, the water, the cows, the location -all create a space for magical healing moments. Professional services, clean hot food, and joy! I feel amazing, so much better. My life has changed in ways that will unravel before me. With deep gratitude, trust, friendship, and love.

My third visit to Vaidyagrama comes to an end. Each of my journeys here has been different. This one has been the most difficult and demanding, both for my body and mind. I cannot find words to express my gratitude towards the whole team. Without their support and understanding, I might have quit.
Skills, experience, and kindness are the keywords that come to mind and apply to everyone, from the senior doctors to the therapists and service staff. I am leaving Vaidyagrama with a clear mind and cleansed body, ready and prepared for whatever comes next. I feel like I am leaving my family behind, whom I will gladly meet again next time. Take good care. Thanks, thanks, thanks, and thanks,

I am grateful for the time at Vaidyagrama. It allowed me the opportunity to experience Panchakarma for the first time, and the possibility to heal the mind, heart and body with the intelligence of Ayurveda and the precious guidance and kindness of Drs. Om Prakash and Anjali. Their deep care and mindfulness throughout the day made my stay enlightening. I am happy that I came. The therapists and staff were excellent. I will surely try to come again. Thank you Dr. Sajna for everything.

My time at Vaidyagrama was enlightening. I have been studying Ayurveda in the US for several years, but never had the opportunity to do a full Panchakarma. I feel that the Ayurvedic experience at Vaidyagrama is authentic. Everyone goes out of their way to make you feel at home.
Thank you, Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Suvedha, for providing me with the insight and treatment to hopefully avoid the diseases that run in my family. I learned so much from them, and the therapists, about Ayurvedic practices to maintain wellness. It is not the kind of knowledge and insight that can be learned from a textbook but must be directly transmitted. I will use this knowledge to help myself and others in my community. I look forward to returning next year.

You came and made us well—what greater gift could there be? Thank you, Keziya and Jithina, for looking after us like family. We will remember your smiling faces. Vaishnavi, Shiny, Sandhyaand all others, you gave us your love and care with the daily treatments. It is you who made us well. God bless you. To the housekeeping and kitchen staff, thank you for taking care of us, especially Jagadeeswari, who is so delicate. The admin staff Keerthi & KrishnaKumar, you have been incredibly helpful and kind.

I appreciate the philosophical foundation and guiding principles that allow for holistic care of the individual, community and the planet! This was my first Panchakarma treatment, and I found it to be very rejuvenating in the short 10-day span I was here. The setting is very peaceful and conducive to mind-body healing. I appreciate the expertise of my physicians and the staff here at Vaidyagrama. I hope this practice will be repeated around the globe.

This is my second visit to Vaidyagrama. My first visit was in July 2019 when I was fully cured of urticaria, which is often considered incurable and can only be suppressed with antihistamines. Once again, I am here to address a persistent inflammation in my arm. I am glad that I was introduced to Vaidyagrama during my first visit. I have recommended this place to many of my friends and family members, all of whom have tremendously benefited from their stay here. The highly dedicated team of very capable doctors and support staff is unparalleled. The focus on holistic healing, both physical and spiritual, has been the most differentiating experience. My good wishes are with the Vaidyagrama team. Keep serving humanity and the environment with the same zeal and dedication. You are a wonderful team!

I am satisfied with the treatment, diagnostics and the warm welcome. The staff were charming and very attentive. I must request chocolate ice cream and more fruits, but it seems they are not Ayurvedic! One area for improvement is the training of therapists. It's not enough to know the protocol; they need to understand our care. I understand this job is hard each day, but in this case, more therapists are necessary.
Some suggestions: teach us the meaning of prayers and ceremonies, as we understand nothing. I really miss the yoga sessions in the garden, and I miss your WhatsApp messages with dosa and other recipes. I don't know what I must do to improve the effectiveness of the medicine. Thank you.

Dear Vaidyagrama,
I came here with no expectation of any improvement. This place was highly recommended by many people I know. I came here with a chronic back issue and was able to maintain a level 5/10 of pain by taking 1800 mg of ibuprofen and 900 mg of gabapentin. My doctor designed a great treatment plan, and now I can leave Vaidyagrama with a pain level of 4/10 and 200 mg of ibuprofen and 300 mg of gabapentin.
I would like to take a minute to express my gratitude to the people who made this miracle happen, who prepared the kashayam, who cleaned the place morning and night, the amazing therapists I had, and anyone else behind the scenes whom I missed. I would like to especially thank Keerthi Vinod for helping me with an issue I had. And most of all, my two junior doctors. A special thanks to Dr. Aparna, who was an amazing support, confidant, and friend to me today. Thank you to Dr. Ramanandan; I am doing much better than when I arrived.
Sincerely,
Priyanka Mahesh,

I’m so glad that I came here. I have always believed in Ayurveda and have been trying to follow it in my own way, but coming here gave it more definition and inspired me to fulfil the mission I have, which is similar to what they have already accomplished. I’m sure it’s not easy to achieve the level of service they provide with so much love and care.
It feels like I’m leaving my home today. Even when I arrived, the centre felt like home because of the energy it has, which is extremely pure and healing. The name justifies it all: “The Healing Village.” I will be back and will spread the word for sure. This place is heaven for people looking to heal inside and out. The calming energy can heal anyone.
Thank you for a wonderful experience; the care and love really moved me. A BIG THANK YOU AND HUGE HUG FOR CREATING THIS COMMUNITY!!

To our very dear Vaidyagrama family,
Our deepest gratitude for the beautiful two weeks spent here. For us, it is a great blessing full of auspicious moments of self-discovery, healing, and community – to be here under the care of the most amazing team of doctors. I cannot express in words the extraordinary and loving care lavished on my mother by the entire team of doctors and therapists. I am certain it is unique in the world. It is the manifestation of a beautiful Vision of mutual caring, affection, love and healing.
Since my mother is now facing many challenges with mobility and independence, she has a few suggestions for the creators of Vaidyagrama to ease the stay of elderly and handicapped patients:
- Perhaps dedicate one block to the care of patients with special physical challenges.
- Bathrooms should be fitted according to international guidelines:
- Toilet height: 18 inches
- Grab bars within easy reach of the toilet on a side wall
- If there is no wall, then a frame with support bars on each side
- Bidet with a jet of water for easy cleansing
- A wide sliding door for easy access with a wheelchair or walker
- If a special block is created, perhaps one extra staff member can be added to the therapy team, and some extra charges can be made for this help.

My wife and I came to Vaidyagrama for a three-week detox and rejuvenation. Being my first ever visit to an Ayurveda centre, I did not know what to expect. But the team at Vaidyagrama made all the difference for us, providing a wonderful experience. What caught my attention was that everyone at Vaidyagrama, regardless of rank or position, was courteous, helpful, and had a remarkable sense of service. It can only come with pride of ownership, and that is rare to find in everyone.
Kudos to Dr. Ramkumar for building such a wonderful culture across such a big team! You mentioned that you are not perfect, but everyone wearing a Vaidyagrama uniform and the Doctors make up for all the imperfections to create a great experience.
Special thanks to the team that took care of us in room 208, led by Dr. Ramanandan, with Dr. Sisira and Dr. Ardent, and therapists Vinod, Santosh, Kavita, Arya, and Bhagya. The laundry team was exceptional. We loved the prayer sessions every morning and evening, especially led in the booming voice of Dr. Ramadas. We enjoyed walking around the campus, listening to bird songs, and admiring the plants you are growing here, although some of them look a bit wilted and in need of water. We were blessed to have the ability to walk over and visit the Dhanvantari temple each morning.
In the spirit of continuous improvement, a few things you can consider:
- We know that we are in Nature and expect to see a few visitors such as bats, cats, and peacocks. However, we did not expect cockroaches in the healthcare facility. Please do something to get rid of them. They are in many places around the campus.
- At times, we felt there was a break in the information flow from the doctors to the therapists, especially when the doctor assigned to the illam was on leave.

I have no words to praise you all. From the doctors, therapists, staff in front office, back office, finance office, housekeeping, security, kitchen department, and all those who relate to the village, you make us feel at home. You treat us as one of your family members and are always ready to help and guide us 24 hours a day. I salute you all. A big thank you. Please continue the good work. Wishing you all the very best, and tons of love. This was my second trip and many more to come.

I strongly believe that people with chronic issues should give Vaidyagrama a shot. The doctors are knowledgeable and everyone from top to bottom is humble and helpful. Vaidyagrama is doing great work with their goshala, farming, and creating herbal products using cow dung. My sincere good wishes to them, and I hope they continue their good work helping villages and improving their systems and facilities. Again, my gratitude to the whole Vaidyagrama family. Special gratitude to the kitchen crew for providing nutritious and delicious food three times a day. All gratitude to the cleaning staff working day in and day out! Namaste!

They are kind and helpful. Overall, my experience has been very positive, as I had no prior experience with Ayurveda. Continued use and asking questions were necessary. Dr. Harikumar spent much time explaining the philosophy of the practice, and Dr. Renjisha was wonderful in answering my questions daily. I look forward to an ongoing relationship with this wonderful tradition. Much gratitude.

My first visit to an Ayurveda hospital for treatment. It was a short stay for a week, but it was a very calm and peaceful place, more connected to the earth and nature.

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
My husband and I came here with our health issues, and tomorrow we are going back feeling much healthier, happier and more energetic. All the doctors and therapists are very caring. I would like to mention Dr. Ramanandan and Dr. Pavithra, whose cheerful dispositions helped us throughout our stay. Dr. Pavithra was always there with a ready smile to help us. Within a week, we started feeling at home.
The Satsangs in the afternoon helped us learn a lot. We especially looked forward to Dr. Ramkumar’s lectures. The group lunches helped us get to know our family here and enjoy singing with them.
Staying in this pristine environment, waking up to the chirping of the birds, and breathing fresh air has helped us heal better. We are carrying home a lot of learning with us. We loved the morning and evening prayers, poojas, and Agnihotra. Our deep-felt gratitude to the entire Vaidyagrama family. May the Almighty bless you all for healing so many lives!

We are going back with full confidence in Dr. Pavithra, Dr. Ramadas and the whole Vaidyagrama family, who are truly dedicated to their work and Indian culture. All the workers are very loving and careful. We feel a great sense of gratitude towards all of you and feel the aura of Shiva is everywhere, protecting us.

I deeply believe that this is the medicine that can address the different bodies in such a balanced way. The body, the ethereal body, the astral body and the organization (ego) are considered individually. What an amazing stay it has been! All the treatments were kindly explained and nicely given. Thank you for offering such quality care in such a defined time. Please come to France often. Blessings to all. I will miss you. Much love,

My stay in Vaidyagrama has overall been amazing. The doctors have been so good, and the staff has been so warm and welcoming.

That's very good. Thank you.

Our experience and stay has been great. I had come here with cramps and other issues, but they have all been resolved. My wife is having difficulty with the treatment, but hopefully 10 more days will help her tremendously. Dr. Hari Kumar and Dr. Nandana are very caring, understanding and knowledgeable.
The therapists and staff are great. The treatment tables are very hard; I wish they were padded to make it easier on the body. Overall, it has been a good experience.
We take the prayer before starting the treatment, and the result is in the hands of God. Thank you all and hope to see you again. It would be nice if the same therapist worked on your body during the treatment; in 12 days I had five different therapists. It is just my suggestion.

I have enjoyed my time here at Vaidyagrama very much. The dynamic campus is ideal for fully immersing in the deep traditional Ayurveda. I have found that the more I surrender to the treatment plan and flow, the better my experience. While communicating my needs didn't always yield results the first time because of the language barrier, everyone generally wants to make you comfortable, so I found it special.
It's a great privilege to receive this type of round-the-clock care, and I feel it is something that one cannot take for granted. There's an incredible amount of coordination behind the scenes. Dr. Sajna also provided very sharp and extra support when I needed it. I will miss all the sweetness that I have experienced with the staff; there's such a positive energy here.
My biggest suggestion is that some of the most senior doctors, especially Dr. Harikumar, learn to be better listeners and not make so many assumptions about a patient. Lots can be learned from the patient. Some housekeeping suggestions: an alarm next to the bed with dim and dimmer light would be nice at night; towels would be nice in the room for stretching; a hammock would be nice. Overall suggestion: a map in the room of the campus would be nice; it would be helpful to orient oneself better. Better communication when one is trying to come to Vaidyagrama. I was communicating with Aparnaji, and sometimes she would not get back to me. It was unclear how to get in touch. It would be better to have my questions answered. Thank you, I will be back.

Dear all, This is my second visit (the first time I visited for my son and stayed for 4 days). When I reached here, I was very disturbed in my mind, but my visit was with great confidence. The treatment started, and after one week, I did not feel any fast improvement, but slowly my problem improved and is now fully gone.
The doctors who attended me were very kind and courteous and listened to my problems with the utmost care. Further treatment was also very nice. The paramedical junior staff was also kind to me, and I am very pleased. The catering service people also nicely planned all things. The atmosphere maintained here is very conducive for people residing here for treatment. The spiritual activities also motivated me and provided good relief for my mental peace. Totally I have enjoyed this atmosphere and feel good about any type of health problems. I wish all the best to all the staff. My special thanks to Dr. Ramadas and the junior doctors who have taken care of me. Thank you.

It's a lovely place to come and get what we are expecting at the right time of the year, not in the hot months. Every therapy and lecture was clear to me. English was used where necessary, and in a slow voice. Many thanks to all for their friendliness, helpfulness and kindness!

I am deeply grateful to the team at Vaidyagrama for taking care of me and healing me. The staff and doctors were nice. The Satsangs were nice. If you add more activities in the future, it will be entertaining for us patients. Thank you.

One thing I have noticed most here is the dignity and respect of everyone in service. The care, dignity, and respect are blended with kindness, making it a joy to live here. Observing Nature over time shows the beauty and order of Vaidyagrama. The human connections and care are comforting. Thank you for the effort to make me feel welcomed and cared for. Your belief in the possibility of my healing has been inspiring. Each person here has contributed to my well-being. I will be forever grateful and will apply what I have learned here. I plan to return and contribute to the future.
It's been a very nice experience, physically, mentally and socially. The staff are super nice and helpful. I came with many physical issues, and while I understand it will take some time to heal, I am confident I will get better.
The living spaces are very comfortable, clean and airy, with lots of trees and gardens that make you feel good inside and out.
The staff is very helpful, and my doctors visit 2-3 times daily to explain things, which I appreciate. I will continue my treatment at home and plan to visit again. Thank you so much, everyone, with my deepest gratitude, care, and love. One suggestion: please consider getting dishwashers. The one big issue is the Wi-Fi/internet connectivity. Thanks.

My time at Vaidyagrama has been a journey full of ups and downs. I came to heal my body from cancer and to learn all the ways of Ayurveda to understand the wisdom and knowledge of this science. I take home much knowledge I can share with the world. I believe this has taught me patience and understanding of the body and what it takes to heal physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Super special thanks to my main doctor Sisira, Dr. Sreeji, therapists Kavitha, Abhirami, Nimmy, and Devayani, who have been so caring and welcoming from the moment I arrived. Grateful for my time here. It was challenging, but also very healing. See you soon. Namaste.

Thank you everyone in Vaidyagrama for being so caring and good. Therapists are good and know their job. A special thanks to the laundry staff, they were good and sweet, truly trained for hospitality. A big thanks to Dr. Abhiram, who for everything said - Don't worry, this is my job, and it will be done.
Thank you everyone!

I am very grateful for having the opportunity to experience healing at Vaidyagrama. It provides an environment conducive for personal growth and reflection.
Love the attention to details given by the doctors, my therapists Bindu and Shilpa. Absolutely love Dr. Vishaga Lakshmi. She has that reassuring attitude that is so humane and essential in-patient care. Enjoyed my spiritual talks with Dr. Ramadas and enjoyed the morning prayers too.
There were a few hiccups which I feel could have been prevented if assumptions were not made about me being sensitive to the heat. I knew my skin reaction was not the typical reaction that, get to the seen. It did not help when it got worse with each day. I feel therapist Sameena was a god send when she recognized that my skin reaction looked like an allergic reaction and stopped the green gram powder bath wash. I will be ever grateful as my last two days were pleasant as the itching and spreading stopped.
Overall, a beautiful experience & I would recommend this place to family and friends happily.

I came to Vaidyagrama, recommended by one of my very good friend and well-wisher. I am extremely grateful to them for sending me here.
I came here with severe knee pain, not able to walk. Now after 21 days, I am going back with minimal pain. The swelling of my knees has completely gone.
I am extremely grateful to all the doctors who attended to me, especially Dr. Om Prakash and Dr. Vishaga Lakshmi, Dr. Rose was also good. All of them made me feel very good, comfortable, and homely.
The serene positive atmosphere, the sattvic food and Satsangs added to the great positive atmosphere here. My therapists Bindu, Nisha, Arya, Silpa and others who came for a few sessions were also extremely kind and co-operative and very concerned.
I am very happy that I came here. I will try my best to spread this message to my friends and relatives. My heartfelt thanks and best wishes to one and all here. I forgot to mention the back-office staff, particularly Sandhya. She was very helpful and kind.
Thank you all once again!

I had heard of Ayurveda treatments, but never thought I would do them personally. My father was a surgeon in the army, so we have always had doses of allopathy medicines for any ailments, but I wanted to give Ayurveda medicine and treatment a try. After coming to Vaidyagrama, I truly understood what Ayurveda stands for and all about diet, body, and mind.
Getting up early and attending Dr. Ramadas' pooja is so mind blowing, you can feel vibrations from his voice, and it energizes you. As my doctor, he has explained the whole concept of my ailments so thoroughly that it has left me with no doubt that our body will get well if we just follow all the principles.
The housekeeping staff, the therapists and all the members of Vaidyagrama have been very dedicated to their work and make you feel like it’s an extended family. Also, a big thank you to Dr. Abhiram who came in daily to find out how we were doing facing any problems. A big thank you to the team of doctors, therapists, and staff of Vaidyagrama.

I have seen a Vision of commitment that is very inspiring. The treatment has benefited us, but I feel that there are other things I have learnt that will guide us in the future.

Feeling very blessed to have been receiving panchakarma in such a warm, comforting, and
professional environment like Vaidyagrama. After being here for 6 weeks doing an internship and 3
weeks of full body detox, I feel I have experienced a state of peace that is difficult to find back at home.
The benefits are slowly showing but I have no doubt that they will come.
I truly like to Thank Dr. Vinod and the therapists for this great experience and learning of ayurveda in practice while working so hard for my health. In addition, I am also very grateful for all the mantra singing, lectures and Yoga Nidra that benefit the healing on other levels, and lastly but certainly not the least, thanks to all the cooking staff dears for the delicious meals and clean rooms.
Vaidyagrama is a Special place with a beautiful Vision, and I wish everyone including staff & patients the best possible healing experience in the future.

Dear Illam 6 Doctors, Therapists and staff of Vaidyagrama!
It was like “Coming Home" 2 weeks ago as I entered VG. A lovely welcome by familiar faces and new ones that continue the warmth of this healing village. Had the privilege of being treated by Dr Om Prakash who was standing in for Dr Ramanandan who was away for a while.
My conversations with Dr Om Prakash were good, so much knowledge, practicality, logic and most attractive was his smile, positive and pleasant disposition. He led the able team of Dr Abhiram, Dr. Ardent and Dr. Sisira towards assessment to treatment after fusing my mental and physical condition. Ever grateful for all your timely care and treatment.
I cannot be grateful enough to my therapists Kavita, Seema, Arya, Aditya Bala, Bhavya, Devi, Sindhu, and Vishnu Priya, for their service with a smile, devotion, and healing vibes in all their interactions. A big God blesses! To the laundry staff and kitchen staff, many thanks for the feasts especially on Wednesdays and Easter Sunday! Thanks for the yummy cake especially!
I was lucky that Dr Ramanandan was back and even though he was away had left instructions about me and was here to see my progress in these 14 days. It was unfortunate to cut my stay short due to a family emergency, but the love and care from all departments was phenomenal.
Love to see the ambience in VG and so much more greenery and flowers. I was happy to plant a Jasmine, as a thanksgiving for my beautiful time here. Giving back to Nature what Nature gives to me is why I stay here.
I was so happy to see the prompt service by the front office in all communications… God bless Aparna ji & Sandhya ji.
Thanks, and not a word that can do justice to what I feel! Better ways to look after oneself and live life to the fullest in moderation, prayers and service is what I am taking back with me!
My Love and best wishes!

What a remarkable organization! They have created a wonderful healing sanctuary, where every detail has been conceived with your health and wellbeing in mind. The doctors and staff are all kind and compassionate and every need or request is met with a smile.
The doctors treat you not just with their brain, but also with their heart. I would like to extend a special thank you to Dr. Rose and Dr. Mojin; Dr. Rose came for the consultation almost every day I was here. Dr. Mojin is also a wonderful person. Both are perfect representations of what a doctor should be. Lastly a heartfelt thank you to all the therapists, cleaning staff, cooks, helpers, and administrators. You’re all fabulous!

I have come to the end of 22 days of stay at Vaidyagrama and have undertaken the panchakarma
treatment. I feel like I am leaving as a new person with a better understanding and compassion for
the world we live in. This is all thanks to Vaidyagrama ethos and amazing doctors, therapists,
cleaning staff, cooks, gardeners, office staff - just about everyone I can thank of.
I came with a heavy head and heart and feel lighter and clearer than I have ever done before. I don’t think there is another place like this special space that has been created by a true visionary. Thank you, Dr. Ramkumar, we are all blessed to have chosen a path with you.
Despite the extreme weather and not being able to sleep, I have enjoyed every minute of my stay and cannot wait to come back.
After doing tour of the whole campus, I could see it reflected the ethos of sharing knowledge, caring for Mother Earth, caring for the community and those who enter its space - a truly special place.
I enjoyed every Satsang and learnt so much and was excited to continue the learning process. Inspiring doctors and visiting Swamis - I am in awe of them all. Thank you for all the care, support, guidance, and knowledge.
And a special thanks to Therapists Unnimaya, Sruthi, Lakshmi and especially Aneesha. Your care, kindness and concern was very touching and appreciated. You went above and beyond with your mighty massages which helped me sleep. A special thank you to Dr. Aparna for your expertise.
Thank you everyone at Vaidyagrama and see you soon.

I came here for an authentic panchakarma stay with Nature. All the Satsangs, professional teachings and spirituality (morning and evening prayers, poojas, talks with Swamiji). How I should explain I was at the right time, in the right place. I got all that was needed for my healing processes. Physically and mentally, I feel the love and compassion from all the staff and Vaidyagrama is much more than a big family now with patients included. I thank every doctor, therapist, housekeeping staff and so on.
My special thanks go to my doctors and therapists in Ilam 3, Dr. Aparna, Dr. Hima, Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramanandan, Sruti, Aneesha, Seema, Lakshmi.
Thank you all for the love, & I will come back soon. It is a magical place. Thank you Dr. Ramkumar, I am very blessed that I am now also a part of this wonderful family. If I forgot any name, please forgive me.

Dearest Vaidyagrama Family,
Thank you so much for all your service, dedication, care, compassion, and smiles!!
I came here as a student last year and what I saw here impressed me a lot, so I came here this year just for an 8- day treatment. We started the treatments because of the immediate consultation of Dr. Om Prakash, and I was very satisfied with his knowledge, dedication to this profession, careful care of me and his intimate knowledge about life, spirit, and lifestyle. I would like to thank him very much.
I would also like to thank Dr Subbalakshmi for her daily morning consultations, patiently informing me about my treatments and always making me feel good with her smiling face. I would also like to thank the staff in the treatment room for their kindness and helpfulness.
The knowledge and experience of doctors and nurses made me feel safe. I am grateful for the care and attention shown to me throughout my treatment process. Also, the cleanliness and order of your center was admirable.
Thank you again and I wish you continued success!

I have been visiting Vaidyagrama, though since after it opened in 2009, there was a large gap with years; but it's good to be home!
I first heard of Dr Ramkumar’s Vision in 2006. And it impressed me deeply.
Over the years She grows. It just gets Better and better!
Two words sum it up - Integrity & Authenticity.
Truly a community has been created and everybody cares, from gardeners cleaners therapists doctors; The meals have been fantastic - Simple, yet tasty & simple servings – I never felt any lack of anything during my stay.
Namaste… Shanti Shanti!

Dear Vaidyagrama team, My friend said to me the day before I came here, ‘if you don’t like it you can leave’. Her comment was in response to the many questions I had about being in an unfamiliar environment by myself for almost 3 weeks. I wrote to her the day I arrived and said there will be no problem for me here. Everyone has welcomed me warmly. I feel confident that my time here will heal.
I would like to thank all the doctors besides Dr. Aparna and Dr. Ramanandan who were my primary care givers. I also appreciate Doctors Hima, Pavithra, and Vinod who filled in as needed. And all those who facilitated the Satsangs every day, led prayers and Yoga Nidra, cooking classes etc.
The therapists are also amazing, all caring and kind. I spent a lot of time with Aneesh and Sruthi and will miss them very much. Also, Bindu and the others always give a kind smile and guide what to do. Also, many thanks to the housekeeping staff in illam 3 and all around keeping the pathways clean and the leaves cleared so trees can grow. And the laundry team too.
I have met or seen the above-named staff, but I want to thank the kitchen staff whom I didn’t meet, for the amazing food every day. The time went by very fast with so many poojas. I met many other patients, and we became friends, bonding over this special place.
Many blessings to you all. Now let the healing begin. Love!

Came here with a confused mind and leaving with a clear mind. Stayed here for almost 3 weeks and
during the initial day lots of questions ran there like, will I be healed? Will I become better? But as
days progressed with the help of the knowledgeable doctors, I gained my confidence upon
treatment. Dr. Om Prakash and Dr. Vinod are my doctors. They attended to me with utmost care.
and answered all my crazy questions with lots of patience, shared the knowledge about my health.
and provided a proper treatment plan. Manju and Shyni my therapists are worth to be mentioned as they put me in a comfort zone during my treatment despite me having to wear the clothing, which I was not at all comfortable initially. Apart from doctors and therapists there are tons of good things to be listed about Vaidyagrama.
Witnessing sunrise along with birds chirping, whole walking area, morning prayer, beautiful flowers that have been bloomed everywhere. We saw colorful peacock with its dazzling feathers, Dhanwantari temple with divine and positive vibrations, sprinkler system which mimics rain, cool Breeze during the sunset when reading for evening prayer, my own little group of friends here who became an integral part are all done of evergreen memories that I would carry for life.
Standards here at Vaidyagrama are high with very well-maintained rooms, programs like Satsang, cooking class, cow pooja, group lunch, just to name a few. Would like to take a moment to thank the entire Vaidyagrama family for the care and service they had provided. Will be visiting frequently for health maintenance.

I came to Vaidyagrama recommended by my sister, & did not know what really to expect. The first few days were challenging with heat and food. But I don't know when Vaidyagrama became my home and the staff my family. I cannot express my gratitude to the doctors, therapists, housekeepers, and the kitchen staff for making my stay here so wonderfully pleasant. You get full circle treatment here, physical and spiritual. Everyone is extremely kind, caring for your well-being so genuinely and accommodating your every need.
Thank you for giving me an extraordinary experience, making my stay so comfortable. I met so many beautiful souls, created wonderful memories for a lifetime. Salute to all the doctors for their incredible knowledge and always eager to answer all your questions. I will miss Satsang. Special thanks to Dr. Harikrishnan, Dr. Anjali and Dr. Rose. Hope to see you all one day again.

From my heart, big thanks to Dr. Vinod. Amazing experience, away from my routine fast life,
understood to take care of my body and health and to slow down. It is not going to be easy but practice will make me perfect, hoping so. I can’t stop talking about the therapists’ motherly care and attention, & made my lifetime memorable feelings that I am going to carry in my life. Overall the
treatments went well and am slowly recovering, and the doctors and therapists took proper care for
my healing. I will surely come back for my second stay sooner. Life lessons are learnt with prayers and
Satsangs and can be followed calmly. Mostly making new friends and experiences, sharing with them was another exposure to us.
Thankful to the entire team Vaidyagrama family for their care and guidance.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Dr. Harikrishnan for consultation regarding my cervical neck pain. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the hospital facilities. They took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, treatment options and answered all my questions with patience and clarity. Dr. Rose, who is taking care of my treatment processes, remains accessible and proactive in managing my care. The therapist was equally attentive and compassionate, making me feel well cared for during my therapy. Thanks for the quality of care provided. I have seen significant improvements in my health. I would highly recommend Vaidyagrama Ayurveda. Will miss you all!

This was my 3rd time in Vaidyagrama. I recommend this fantastic healing village where you will feel part of a family (doctors, therapists, cooking staff, and all the people who are taking care of this place). Everyone is truly caring about you, to help you reach better health. I will come back as regularly as possible to maintain good health. All my deep gratitude to the entire team! Love you all.

The takeaway from Vaidyagrama stay is huge. Of course, big case of take-home medicines too - but I'm not talking about that! Giving an experience on how our ancestors would have led their life.
More than healing, being disciplined - I liked a lot. I'm happy that my kids got a chance to spend some time without Wi-Fi, made new friends, many chit-chats on the stone bench with the good breeze, is going to be a lifetime memorable experience.
Finally, I'm returning with a belief that my issue will be solved once and for all. That's because of Dr. Vinod Govind and the excellent hospitalization by Dr. Rose and her crew. Appreciate all your help!

This journey was serendipitous, my dear Vaidyagrama family! I wouldn't have believed it if someone had told me that such profound changes could occur in just 13 days.
From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank all the doctors, physicians, cooks, and every living being in this community. You all have opened your hearts to me and reminded me that we all are 're-members' of the universe. You have consistently shown love and healed us with your hands, your hearts, and through God. We are one.
Every single experience has deeply inspired me day by day. Dealing with healing has been a journey for my mind and soul. Thanks to this journey, I had the chance to hear the music of my inner soul. Mother India always accepts and heals, and during this time, I have learned to accept myself and let go of what no longer serves me.
One key aspect addressed here was digestion. All the treatments here have helped me digest not only physically, but also mentally and spiritually. I am leaving here with a bigger heart, and all of you will always be in my prayers. Until we meet again, thank you!

Coming to Vaidyagrama was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I have had Panchakarma treatment before at other hospitals, but coming here was the best thing that ever happened to me. I enjoyed every moment of my stay here, and if the Lord permits, I would like to come back again sometime in the future.
I have made so many amazing friends from all around the globe. No matter how many times I say thank you to everyone here at Vaidyagrama, it is not enough. To my two doctors, Dr. Harikumar and Dr. Nandana, and all the other doctors who helped me improve my health, thank you a million times. To the therapists, you guys are great; you all are God-sent people. Many times, I felt as though my mother was massaging my body. Even to the housekeeping team and laundry team, I say thank you a lot. And thank you all for the beautiful surprise party on my birthday. This will be very memorable.

I was advised by my school buddy Vikram to visit this place for the past few years. I have never thought that enrolling in a 14-day treatment program would change my life so much, especially regarding getting off my BP medication, which I have been taking for the past 10 years, and the medication for cholesterol for the past 14 months. I am happy to mention that I can slowly taper my anxiety medication too after the 14 days of treatment at Vaidyagrama. I didn’t expect this to happen; I wish I had done this much earlier. Like they say, better late than never. I am leaving so happy that I don't have to depend on these medications anymore.
The concoctions they formulate to heal are all herbal and safe to consume. The supporting staff, whether it’s the duty doctor, the pantry attendants, or the masseurs, is so oriented in what they do here. Everyone here in this village is so calm and composed.
I would like to thank my consultant Dr. Om Prakash, duty doctor Sajna S, Dr. Sajna, the masseurs, and the pantry attendants for taking care of me during my stay here. Last but not least, I wholeheartedly would like to thank Dr. Ramkumar for setting up this village, which is a boon for many. Keep it up!

Me (Businessman) and my wife (Academician) are based in Karur, Tamil Nadu, and did a 15-day treatment with Vaidyagrama. This period turned out to be deeply rejuvenating, inside and outside. The facility and its infrastructure set the right tones for a relaxing and soothing atmosphere. The fresh breeze, rains, and warm welcome from everyone in the staff made it a very comfortable stay.
Dr. Vinod Govind did a wonderful job with us right from diagnosis, treatments, and counselling. We felt safe with his guidance. The therapists Manju, Karthika, and Prasad cared for all our needs during our time here and also gave us the best attention during treatment sessions. This entire experience has been very unique to us but very much rooted in the Ayurveda traditions. It has certainly widened our mental and physical bandwidth for the days to come.
A suggestion would be to include a menu that can cater to the palate of the variety of visitors - including Tamil. May God bless abundantly the entire Vaidyagrama family!!! With lots of thanks.

Late to visit Vaidyagrama! Earlier, my friend Vikram Ramakrishnan was insisting for the last few years, and I finally made it this year. Only after reaching Vaidyagrama did I realize I should have been here much before. It is such a good place to rejuvenate your entire system. It's not just the medicines and therapy that made me happy; it’s the doctors, therapists, and everyone here who is so connected and committed to the institution. I wish them all very good luck!

Thanks and gratitude to Dr. Vinod, Dr. Aparna, and the supporting vaidyas for spending so much time with me, listening closely to every detail I was talking about, answering all my questions, making sure that everything happens properly in the background, and doing it all joyfully and with a sense of true care and compassion.
Thanks to all vaidyas and Medical Directors for giving us very insightful, authentic knowledge from the true ancient Ayurvedic teachings through the daily talks and Satsang. It was a big pleasure to be able to get to know all doctors more closely during these Satsangs as well.
I really enjoy and appreciate that I am constantly surrounded by beautiful Nature and that I could spend these 7 weeks in a quite joyful, open-minded atmosphere amongst staff and therapists who obviously love and enjoy their work.
I found the spiritual side of Vaidyagrama wonderful and important especially the morning and evening prayers as well as the many festival and spiritual events and poojas, which occurred regularly and help in mental healing as well. There are probably only a few places in the world of this quality and authenticity. May Vaidyagrama, the doctors, and staff thrive and help many more people to heal!!

Dear Vaidyagrama family, I return to Vaidyagrama after 10 long years. The trees have grown, and the place is thriving, yet it remains unwavering in its dedication towards authentic Ayurvedic care. Special thanks to my team at Illam 3: Dr. Aparna ji, Dr. Vinod ji, Sruthi ji, Bindu ji, Aneesha ji, and Arunima ji for your breadth of knowledge, your attentiveness, your kindness, as well as to the myriad network of seen and unseen staff working together to make this place what it is today. While occasionally the delivery and consistency of services don't quite hit the mark, I do believe the intention is pure and there is a commitment towards continual improvement. Notwithstanding the physical and emotional challenges that come with Panchakarma, I have no doubt that yet again this experience will transform me.
It's not easy to stay true to a vision rooted in integrity and ethos when the world around us is going in a different direction. Congratulations to you all; may the Vaidyagrama vision continue to flourish. With love and thanks to you all!

To Vaidyagrama and anyone else who may be reading this, I have been looking for a cleanse and reset opportunity for many years. I knew if I could just get a month in a place that offers a restricted and scheduled environment with the proper guidance and nutrition, I could get the flush and restart I had been yearning for. Thanks to the advice and guidance of my wife,
I came to Vaidyagrama on 5/05/24 and 29 days later, I am literally a new man. I am the cleanest and clearest version of myself that I can remember, and I know it will only continue to get better from here. My deepest and most sincere gratitude and appreciation to this faculty and all who work here and make this opportunity possible! Special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Aparna, Dr. Om Prakash, Dr. Vinod, Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Ramkumar, Lalu, and many others. This marks the beginning of a completely new narrative in my life, and I could not be more thankful or feel more blessed.
With great love,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
If I combine 3 emotions "peace, love, and care," then it becomes Vaidyagrama. My first visit, but as of now Vaidyagrama is the biggest hope for a tough phase my family is going through. I admire the attention and care provided to Ojas (my son) by Dr. Rose, Dr. Anjali, and Dr. Harikrishnan.
We will be coming again here, but I want to see a day when I visit here just to spend time with nice people staying here, rather than coming here for health issues.
Thank you, doctor, for the color pencils!

Dear Team, I would like to share my treatment experience at Vaidyagrama Hospital. I wish to thank everyone who helped me throughout my healing journey, especially the doctors and therapists. It was my first time undergoing an Ayurvedic treatment and now I am so happy to say that my health has never been this good. My body pain has been cured and also I lost my weight. I am so grateful to Dr. Ramanandan Sir and Dr. Aruna and am so happy with the treatments. My prayers and well wishes will be with you. Vaidyagrama team, I will be forever thankful to everyone and will never forget my Vaidya family. Thank you!

I can only say thank you… for building an institution with a soul, where care and nurture are inherent and natural in the DNA of the place. It’s rare to feel this in every individual, in the brick and mortar, and in the Nature around us. I have enjoyed the feeling of peace, almost reconnecting with the fundamentals of life. And witnessing the larger Vision unfold through community activities has been so satisfying. It's a community where I met so many doctors, staff, patients, and even peacocks, cats, and lizards! With every good wish for turning dreams into real actions, a very special shout out to Dr. Sajna for her sensitivity and understanding, to Dr. Harikumar for teaching me about "Ananda", to Sandhya for being meticulous and a great therapist, along with Praveena, Femila, Jyothika, Vijitha, and Saroja for treating & cleaning like worship.

Kudos to the entire team and my blessings to the wellness for Vaidyagrama to continue their service and growing. A special thanks to Dr. Om, Dr. Aparna, Dr. Vinod, and Dr. Mojin.

There is deep expertise in Ayurveda, and I sincerely hope the long-term effects on me are positive. Special thanks to Doctor Anjali, Doctor Rose, and Doctor Ramanandan.

I am deeply grateful to everyone at Vaidyagrama who took such good care of me and showed me so much love during my stay here. It is because of their affection and genuine concern that I responded so positively to the excellent treatment. The team of senior doctors and the doctors in charge, as well as the wonderful girls who provided my treatments, are all highly competent with years of experience. I can easily say that my stay here has been the highlight of my life in recent years, as Vaidyagrama has allowed me to slow down, reflect, and connect with my inner self.
My very special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Renjisha, Dr. Sajna, Dr. Rose, Greeshma, Shiny, Vincy, Sandhya and all the other wonderful young girls for their love and warmth. Simply put, Vaidyagrama embraces you. It’s a home that heals both body and soul.

Thank you to everyone at Vaidyagrama for creating such a beautiful experience. My name is Shivani Awasthi. I stayed in Illam 10 for about 2 weeks. Being here is like staying in a little village where everyone feels like family. I have felt so cared for and listened to during my stay. There is no need to advocate for your care; care, kindness, and a desire to help are built into the way of life here. Everyone always has the loveliest smile and demeanour; even when passing by, everyone greets you with a smile and respect. My massage therapists and the girls who work in my Illam are some of the nicest people who love to share joy. The food we received, especially buttermilk (which is my favorite), is made with love and care. The people who set up the room every morning and evening go above and beyond. The doctors are very diligent and intelligent, working to find solutions for all ailments until one works. Thank you so much, Vaidyagrama, for building a beautiful community with enriching activities and beautiful, kind and loving people.
Till next time!

To the dear Vaidyagrama family,
I would like to thank from the bottom of my heart. I am highly impressed with your overall service and especially your hospitality. Me being a student I was introduced to Ayurveda for the very first time. I had a wonderful experience with learning and healing with Ayurveda. The only discomfort I felt was with the food. People are coming here from different parts of the world, so it will be great if the food is served with common interest. I will be visiting next time for the ambience that has helped my mental wellbeing.
Thank you so much once again & see you soon!

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
I visited Vaidyagrama in Jan 24 to see if this is a good place for my family, especially my daughter who is not used to the Ayurvedic system but was open to trying it. I connected with the place immediately and spent the next 3 months planning a trip. I was still nervous when I landed on June 17, but everything I have experienced has exceeded my expectations. The willingness of Dr. Om to work with a neurosurgeon to care for his team of doctors, the patience of the dining staff, and the courtesy of every support staff has been amazing. The morning chants, the beautiful temple, the goshala, the wonderful flora and fauna, the lovely peacocks, and the afternoon Satsang made every day meaningful and wholesome. The best part of the experience is the normality of every doctor and therapist in depth with the patients. I feel blessed to be part of the Vaidyagrama family for 2 weeks and I look forward to future visits.
Thank you!

Dear Vaidyagrama,
Thanks once again for providing us with a unique experience here. Last year we were here in August. So, within a year we are here again. The place is a spot that always heals your body, thoughts and mind in extraordinary ways.
In the age of modern medicine which only manages the disease, Ayurveda goes into the root cause of disease and cures the cause. The Nadi Pariksha is a unique diagnosis to find the dosa within our body.
Here Ayurveda along with Nature, prayer and Satvik food provide us a beautiful opportunity to be Punarnava (Be New Again)!

The lofty vision and mission of Dr. Ramkumar and his very efficient team of doctors have been quite an eye-opener for me. Everyone feels very welcome in this beautiful place reverberating with divine energy, love, friendliness and happiness even though people come here with their own set of physical and mental issues. Enjoyed the hospitality shown by the support staff - Sumathi and all the therapists especially, Bindu, Shruthi, and Shiny. Therapists Hema and Lakshmi too attended to me once. Every therapist is very courteous, and they follow instructions very well. I would also like to thank Anisha, Nisha, Manisha and Devayani for all their support. Dr.Ramanandan made both of us feel at ease and addressed every issue of ours without showing any signs of irritation despite us asking him the same question a couple of times. D.Aparna is a big source of support to us. They also addressed all our issues with a smiling face and with lots of patience. Would like to end with a huge feeling of gratitude for all the love and care showered upon us by every member of Vaidyagrama. Thank you, thank you, and once again thank you.

Vaidyagrama is a healing Village for physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. I am a post-cancer treatment patient with very low immunity and metabolism with loads of side effects in my body like severe body pain, always feverish and inflammation too. I got relieved from my body pain within a week of treatments, which made me believe the treatment. Here in Vaidyagrama the doctors and team customized the treatments and therapies as per my body needs. My doctors Dr. Ramadas’ and Dr. Vinod’s guidance for my well-being is commendable. My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Vinod for his patience in listening to all my queries and giving me clarity to my doubts. Dr. Hima supported me when I was not well without even looking at the time frame of duty. Every time I needed a doctor or therapist, I had the freedom to be with the team at any time. My gratitude to all doctors and therapists, staff and the special space around me.

Our experience at Vaidyagrama over the past 28 days has been nothing short of transformative. Nestled amidst serene natural surroundings, this Ayurvedic healing center exudes a profound sense of peace and healing from the moment you arrive. The staff here are not just friendly, but incredibly knowledgeable—a sanctuary where each day brings a deeper connection with Nature and a renewed sense of well-being. Prayers, Satsangs, meals and pujas—every aspect of our stay has contributed to our overall health and happiness.
We are truly grateful for the opportunity to embark on this healing journey at Vaidyagrama. It is more than a place of recovery; it's a haven where ancient wisdom meets modern care, creating a space where healing feels natural and profound. Thank you to the entire team at VG for their dedication and warmth. We leave here feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and eager to continue our journey toward optimal health.

After significant research, I chose to come to Vaidyagrama for a short 7-day visit as an introduction to Ayurveda and for general detox. I felt connected from being picked up at the airport to the warm welcome at Vaidyagrama. The staff, the accommodation and the treatments are authentic, and the ambience is calming. Life feels real here. I loved the morning and evening prayers, the Satsangs, the gardeners and the wildlife, especially the beautiful peacocks. A most rejuvenating experience that I would recommend to others. Many thanks to Dr. Harikumar.

I came to Vaidyagrama on the recommendation of our well-wisher Geetha Mohandas. I arrived with left shoulder and knee pain. My shoulder pain has significantly reduced within three days of treatments. The treatment is good and the doctors are well-experienced. Dr. Abhiram is very caring and knowledgeable, and Dr. Harikrishnan provided insight into the causes of my pain, as well as spiritual and bodily connections. Dr. Abhiram has consistently followed up on my details.
Cons: Therapy service could be improved. I felt that there was some hesitation to make extra efforts to ensure comfort. A little more kindness would add more value to the service.
I will recommend this place to my friends and family.

The staff go out of their way to help and accommodate, the daily pujas are divine, and the environment is sublime. My doctors Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Vishaga are the best. The way they took care of me daily was splendid. I’m going to miss them. There is no place on Earth like Vaidyagrama! Must visit. I will be back again and again. Thank you for everything.

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
Healing is a deeply intuitive process – one that requires nourishment and taking responsibility. Thank you to every single person here. All of you collectively create the magic that is Vaidyagrama – a place where love and service triumph overall. To my dear Dr. Omprakash – who is the personification of joy and strength – for always sharing a smile and wisdom. To Dr. Sisira – for showing us what silent dedication is. To Dr. Mojin – for showing us what care and tenderness are. To all the therapists – who take care of us as if we are their own children. Cluster 5 is unlike anything I expected. Then again, I barely knew what healing was. Thank you for helping us understand how to listen to our bodies. This place is truly remarkable, and its magic comes from the sincerity of every person, plant and brick that lives here.
Love,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
When I arrived here, I was thinking of an ayurvedic center in a village – & it’s a village in an ayurvedic center! I didn’t notice any flowers amidst all the greenery, only to realize on day 2 that there are 250 roses blooming each day with a smile – it’s 250 employees! Great energy all day! Competency cures, but it’s the total environment that makes the treatment here holistic. My special gratitude to Dr. Omprakash and Dr. Mojin for their tireless dedication and focus on each stage of my treatment over 19 days. Everyone here, including the patients, make you feel like part of a family. Grateful always.
God bless,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
I must admit that I didn’t come here thinking it was a magical place that would heal or renew me. But to my surprise, it did work magic in a different aspect of my life. I’m not exactly sure if it is the ambience or the warm, welcoming people who surrounded me that caused this magic. However, as time went by, I realized that the Nature around here and the members of the Vaidyagrama family (be it housekeeping staff or doctors) work together in this healing process. It is all one big unit; every single person here does their part to the best of their ability to make sure the guest has the best memories to take home along with healing. I must thank Dr. Omprakash and Dr. Sreeji and all the duty doctors and therapists for their care and sensible approach. The experience was unlike anything I have come across before. I am so glad I spent a few days here. Thank you again!

Thank you so much for a divine healing experience. Waking up to prayers, followed by daily check-ins with doctors, loving treatment by therapists, and ending the day with prayers made my trip enjoyable. The expert Ayurvedic Vaidyas' Satsangs and tips provided the much-needed education. Even the housekeeping and kitchen staff were always kind and responsive. Thank you, and many thanks to Dr. Visagha for the graceful presence and proper care. Miss you, Vaidyagrama, and thank you.

My stay is coming to an end. I'm not sure if my English will be good enough to express what I'd like to, but I will do my best. I have been thinking of experimenting and discovering Ayurveda through Panchakarma treatment for several years, and I'm very glad I finally decided to do it. I'm very grateful to have done it here. As a patient, I deeply appreciate the natural, calm, and away-from-traffic environment. The caring staff (the physicians and therapists, as well as the room cleaners and all staff in general) were wonderful. I wasn’t expecting Satsangs, and that was a great surprise! I didn’t always feel the energy to attend them, but perhaps I will return to gain more knowledge of Ayurveda. I also liked starting my day with the morning prayers and poojas and finishing it with chanting. Overall, I feel very inspired by the spirit of Vaidyagrama—the will to achieve a paradigm shift where we change our views on the universe, Nature, and fellow beings.
Living a simple, good, healthy, and happy life with a strong sense of community extended to nearby villages is definitely what we need! With much love and appreciation. Special thanks to the Illam 2 team, except for some neighbor patients who didn’t realize the noise they were making.

It was an absolutely amazing experience staying here. I am deeply touched by everyone’s love, care and humility here. This place has taught me patience and discipline and, more importantly, to value everything we take for granted back home. It is commendable how you strive to truly stay in tune with Nature, grow your own food, medicines, recycle and reuse. I loved the Satsangs and gained so much knowledge, thanks to all the wonderful healers and teachers here. A big shout-out to Dr. Ram Kumar. Please start a YouTube channel - Your talks are amazing, and you have a wealth of knowledge. I truly felt in the presence of greatness around you.
I truly appreciate all the workers, cleaners, and kitchen staff who always go about their duties with a cheerful smile. God bless you all. I do hope to visit this beautiful place again with my family. You all are providing an invaluable service to your community. I am also very impressed by the community outreach programs and the charity you do. May God truly bless all of you, your families and all your endeavors. Much love to my family away from family!

I learned about Vaidyagrama through my friend Geetha Mohandas. She brought us friends here one day and showed us around. I decided to come and stay for treatment. I arrived on July 1st for a 21-days stay, and it was a fantastic experience. The greenery all around, the quiet surroundings, and the lovely bird songs made it more enjoyable. The doctors and therapists were very kind and caring. The food was very sattvic and good for the stomach. The prayers in the morning and evening were very soothing to the mind and soul. The temples are beautiful, and the daily poojas provide immense peace and solace. The entire staff is excellent—always polite and smiling. My special thanks to Dr. Harikrishnan, Dr. Abhiram, Dr. Renjisha and Dr. Anjali. My knee and back pain have considerably reduced, and I feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Thank you, Vaidyagrama!

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
Thank you so much for the great care and attention given to me during my three-week stay. All the therapists made me feel at home with their cheerful smiles and by always checking whether I was comfortable. Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Sreeji, Dr. Nandana and Dr. Prateek - all took very good care of me and explained every step of the treatment clearly. I also greatly appreciate the service provided by Hema Chechi, Greeshma, Arya and Lijiya. I will miss you all. God bless you all, and I hope to see you next year.

My problem is cured by 80%. This was a completely different experience of healing. If you love yourself, this place is a must-visit. I certainly recommend it to others. Thank you so much to Dr. Harikrishnan, Dr. Renjisha, Dr. Anjali and all the other doctors, as well as all the therapists and supporting team. I am looking forward to visiting this place again.

This is a wonderful, healing environment powered by a terrific, caring staff—from the excellent Doctors and massage specialists to the Reception and Accounting staff. It is impossible to say enough or to praise them highly enough. We had very restful, relaxed days and felt physically better within a short span of three days. We are quite sure that a longer stay would be even more beneficial. The food was exactly what we expected and just what we needed to make a lifestyle change. However, it would be nice if it tasted like traditional South Indian cuisine occasionally.
Thank you.

We can clearly see that every person here is committed to providing an authentic healing experience, and that is very much a part of the culture here.
With all the hustle in our work lives, our time at Vaidyagrama gave us an opportunity to appreciate and respect our own minds and bodies, eventually experiencing an environment that is conducive to the healing process. In the last couple of weeks we spent here, we are delighted to be leaving feeling light, cleansed, and in a happy mind space, with lots of learning. Our special thanks to Dr. Ramkumar, Dr. Hari Kumar, Dr. Pavithra and Dr. Arun for giving us a personalized treatment plan and very good care.

I have spent six of the most challenging yet empowering weeks here, sometimes against my will, but all the while feeling the immense support of the Doctors, Directors, staff and therapists. I arrived at Vaidyagrama as a patient with no hope and as a victim of my condition, and after my extensive stay here, I am leaving with renewed faith in my healing and the knowledge of an entirely new paradigm of healthcare. From the caring and loving junior doctors and therapists who tolerated and even encouraged my pitiful attempts at conversing in Tamil, to the communal ambience of the dining hall, every aspect of Cluster 5 was a transformative experience. The people (and animals) are truly what make the place, not just the treatment. The special bonds I formed with other patients and therapists will always hold a place in my heart, along with the lessons each interaction taught me. To share our mutual suffering in an environment of hope and healing was such an honor, and I am forever indebted to the care I received at the hands of my therapists Greeshma akka, Kavitha akka, chechi and all the other lovely therapists. Dr. Om served as a constant beacon of hope, with his contagious joy and confidence and abundance of wisdom. The lectures from Dr. Ramkumar were fascinating and mind-expanding. Overall, while initially reluctant to philosophy, I am extremely happy and content with the lessons I learned and the treatment I received. See you next year.

Dear VG family,
I truly enjoyed my stay here. You have created a healing village complete with positive temples, a goshala, communal kitchen, healing illams, beautiful gardens with dancing peacocks, and a spectacular view of the Western Ghats mountains. Waking up to the morning chants and prayers at Dhanwanthari Temple and Brahma Kamalam gave a blissful start to the day.
I am very grateful to the wonderful team that took care of me during my entire stay here. Thanks to the ever-cheerful, positive Dr. Omprakash, who has a great sense of humor and knowledge of Ayurveda. His daily visits combined spiritual wisdom with his diagnosis and gave us the assurance that we all could heal ourselves. The therapists are exceptionally kind, professional, and sincere, and kudos to VG for selecting the best and training them well. Dr. Ramkumar’s Satsangs and talks have been truly inspiring, and his message will stay with us forever. Thanks to the wonderful junior doctors Dr. Mojin, Dr. Sisira, Dr. Shyam, Dr. Dhanya, and Dr. Ardent. We leave VG with a lot of hope and belief that we can truly heal ourselves.

Vaidyagrama is a super special, sacred, healing Ayurvedic place set in an authentic natural setting with lush green foliage. It is also home to thousands of birds such as peacocks, who all reside in harmony. It has been a wonderful place to heal and detox my mind, body, and soul, and to recharge my batteries. Words cannot express my gratitude and appreciation for all the sincere care that I received during my long stay at Vaidyagrama.
I am very thankful to my Vaidyas, especially Dr. Ramanandan and Dr. Aparna, as well as Dr. Rose, Dr. Hima, Dr. Ardent, Dr. Sreeji, and Dr. Anjali, for their dedication and support toward my recovery. Many thanks to all my cheerful therapists at Illam 4—Kalpana, Athira, Bindu, Vishnu Priya, and others—for their great attention and care.
I am so grateful and glad that I was able to stay here for 43 days to recover and heal a few months after my recent back surgery this year. I felt so at home with my new Vaidyagrama family, who I have become very fond of and consider like my own. Every day, I looked forward to the healthy, organic, delicious food and my herbal tea. I truly enjoyed Satsangs every day with some of the wise and knowledgeable Vaidyas, like Dr. Ramkumar, Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikumar, and Dr. Om Prakash. Thank you!
Many thanks to Dr. Ramadas for the beautiful morning and evening chants and prayers every day. It was such a pleasure to wake up to the sounds of birds chirping and prayer bells every day. After returning home, I feel more confident and positive about handling my healing journey wisely. Thank you, Vaidyagrama team, for all your affection and support towards my health. I intend to return sometime next year and continue my healing journey. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Namaskaram!
Vaidyagrama is a healing village for physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. I am a post-cancer treatment patient with very low immunity and metabolism, experiencing severe body pain, frequent fever, and inflammation. I found relief from my body pain within a week of treatment, which made me believe in the efficacy of the treatment. Here at Vaidyagrama, the doctors, team, and therapists tailor their care to my needs. My doctors, Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Vinod, provided commendable guidance for my well-being. My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Vinod for his patience in addressing all my queries and providing clarity on my doubts. Dr. Hima supported me when I was unwell, regardless of duty hours. Whenever I needed a doctor or therapist, I had the freedom to access the team at any time. My gratitude extends to all doctors, staff, therapists, and the special space around me. I pray for more Vaidyagrama-like places around me. Thank you.

My doctor Harikrishnan and the team, including Dr. Anjali and Dr. Renjisha, have been thoroughly responsive with continuous monitoring of my health and well-being. The team of therapists transformed my daily treatments into supreme healing rituals. Thank you all. The daily Satsangs have been extremely informative. This is my first experience with Ayurveda, and I feel I have begun my journey to well-being in the most beautiful place. Thank you.

Our experience at Vaidyagrama over the past 28 days has been nothing short of transformative. Nestled amidst serene natural surroundings, this Ayurvedic healing center exudes a profound sense of peace and healing from the moment you arrive. The staff here are not just friendly, but incredibly knowledgeable—a sanctuary where each day brings a deeper connection with Nature and a renewed sense of well-being. Prayers, Satsangs, meals and pujas—every aspect of our stay has contributed to our overall health and happiness.
We are truly grateful for the opportunity to embark on this healing journey at Vaidyagrama. It is more than a place of recovery; it's a haven where ancient wisdom meets modern care, creating a space where healing feels natural and profound. Thank you to the entire team at VG for their dedication and warmth. We leave here feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and eager to continue our journey toward optimal health.

After significant research, I chose to come to Vaidyagrama for a short 7-day visit as an introduction to Ayurveda and for general detox. I felt connected from being picked up at the airport to the warm welcome at Vaidyagrama. The staff, the accommodation and the treatments are authentic, and the ambience is calming. Life feels real here. I loved the morning and evening prayers, the Satsangs, the gardeners and the wildlife, especially the beautiful peacocks. A most rejuvenating experience that I would recommend to others. Many thanks to Dr. Harikumar.

I came to Vaidyagrama on the recommendation of our well-wisher Geetha Mohandas. I arrived with left shoulder and knee pain. My shoulder pain has significantly reduced within three days of treatments. The treatment is good and the doctors are well-experienced. Dr. Abhiram is very caring and knowledgeable, and Dr. Harikrishnan provided insight into the causes of my pain, as well as spiritual and bodily connections. Dr. Abhiram has consistently followed up on my details.
Cons: Therapy service could be improved. I felt that there was some hesitation to make extra efforts to ensure comfort. A little more kindness would add more value to the service.
I will recommend this place to my friends and family.

The staff go out of their way to help and accommodate, the daily pujas are divine, and the environment is sublime. My doctors Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Vishaga are the best. The way they took care of me daily was splendid. I’m going to miss them. There is no place on Earth like Vaidyagrama! Must visit. I will be back again and again. Thank you for everything.

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
Healing is a deeply intuitive process – one that requires nourishment and taking responsibility. Thank you to every single person here. All of you collectively create the magic that is Vaidyagrama – a place where love and service triumph overall. To my dear Dr. Omprakash – who is the personification of joy and strength – for always sharing a smile and wisdom. To Dr. Sisira – for showing us what silent dedication is. To Dr. Mojin – for showing us what care and tenderness are. To all the therapists – who take care of us as if we are their own children. Cluster 5 is unlike anything I expected. Then again, I barely knew what healing was. Thank you for helping us understand how to listen to our bodies. This place is truly remarkable, and its magic comes from the sincerity of every person, plant and brick that lives here.

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
When I arrived here, I was thinking of an ayurvedic center in a village – & it’s a village in an ayurvedic center! I didn’t notice any flowers amidst all the greenery, only to realize on day 2 that there are 250 roses blooming each day with a smile – it’s 250 employees! Great energy all day! Competency cures, but it’s the total environment that makes the treatment here holistic. My special gratitude to Dr. Omprakash and Dr. Mojin for their tireless dedication and focus on each stage of my treatment over 19 days. Everyone here, including the patients, make you feel like part of a family. Grateful always.
God bless,

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
I must admit that I didn’t come here thinking it was a magical place that would heal or renew me. But to my surprise, it did work magic in a different aspect of my life. I’m not exactly sure if it is the ambience or the warm, welcoming people who surrounded me that caused this magic. However, as time went by, I realized that the Nature around here and the members of the Vaidyagrama family (be it housekeeping staff or doctors) work together in this healing process. It is all one big unit; every single person here does their part to the best of their ability to make sure the guest has the best memories to take home along with healing. I must thank Dr. Omprakash and Dr. Sreeji and all the duty doctors and therapists for their care and sensible approach. The experience was unlike anything I have come across before. I am so glad I spent a few days here. Thank you again!

Vaidyagrama has given a lot to us. It is a very special place. All the doctors, therapists, and staff were helpful and supportive. This place is a real blessing. We are planning to keep coming. The care of Dr Vishagalakshmi was excellent and warm at the same time. We felt we were so blessed to have her as our doctor, she took care of every need, and she was 100 percent committed to her duties. We felt so grateful to Dr. Ramanandan. All the vaidyas we felt, put all their hearts into their commitment to educate us during Satsang. And the doctors and junior doctors as well. The prayer is also a consecrated time for the Vaidyagrama family life. It adds to the healing process making it even more wholesome. We are going home with our hearts open, filled with love and gratitude. So grateful to be part of this family. Love and blessings.

Dear Vaidyagrama doctors and therapists,
I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the unwavering support and exceptional care you have provided us. Your dedication and commitment to our well-being have made a profound impact on our journey towards healing and restoration. The environment you have created, harmoniously integrating the basic five elements, offers a sanctuary of healing for our minds and souls. It is truly a remarkable space that fosters an atmosphere of serenity and rejuvenation.
After undergoing Panchakarma treatment, I have experienced significant detoxification, with symptoms such as itchiness and breathing irregularities indicating that my body is expelling toxins and utilizing its own natural intelligence to heal. I am sincerely grateful for the invaluable support provided by the doctors during night calls. Your readiness to assist, even at the most inconvenient times, speaks volumes about your dedication and compassion.
The Satsang sessions and activities you conducted have been immensely beneficial, offering us valuable information on how to better care for our bodies and minds, while also fostering a sense of community and shared purpose. I am looking forward to the positive impact of the three-month medication or new lifestyle you have recommended. I believe that following your guidance will lead to continued health and revitalization as if we are starting anew.
Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your exceptional care and support. Your efforts have not only facilitated our physical healing but also given us the tools to maintain balance and health in our lives.
With heartfelt gratitude,

I had a very good experience here. They treated us very well. I came and was admitted to the hospital on an emergency basis. They started the treatment and explained about the medicines which they are getting for the same as awesome. Dr. Vinod is such a nice person to explain our disease and the root cause for the same. Dr. Nandana was very good at explaining our doubts about the treatment. Dr. Vishaga was another nice person who always filled the space in the team. A very big thanks to Dr. Ramadas. He is such a nice person. I have not seen anything like this as a doctor. And I very much appreciate each and every therapist for their wonderful patience while doing treatment.

I am filled with immense gratitude for this place and the entire team who work so hard and are so kind to everyone. I am deeply thankful to the doctors and the team, including the lovely ladies who clean my room. I will return and stay 3 weeks, very shortly.

One month in this serene and nourishing paradise can bring so much calmness and peace to one’s body and mind. Not to forget the spiritually uplifting talks by all the doctors. Dr. Ramanandan, I owe a ton of sincere gratitude for caring for me so selflessly and dedicatedly. Dr. Sreeji, Dr. Vishaga, Dr. Nandana – Thank you for keeping a close watch on me, even late into the night. Prateek, Binil, and Vinod were all dedicated therapists and doctors who took a keen interest in my well-being. Thanks a ton. I could write pages about the virtues of vaidyagrama, but I have a plan to catch up soon.

Vaidyagrama's approach to service and giving should be out for me. My days just flew by. There are lots of things to do alongside, giving our body rest. Vaidyas feel like they are magicians and can understand much deeper issues than what might be only visible on the surface. I enjoyed my stay and am very grateful for what I have received.
Dr. Ardent, Dr. Hima, and Dr. Ramanandan were all excellent and gave as much time. I needed to discuss my health issues. My 13-year-old son was equally given treatment and well advised on what to do and don't.
Thank you very much. Best wishes.

Therapists Shiny and Aneesha did everything possible to make me comfortable with their treatment and procedures. The moment I met Dr. Ramadas, I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Dhanya and Dr. Abhiram were very patient and attentive throughout my stay, answering all my questions with a smile. Special thanks to Dr. Anjali for her care during the Vasti procedure. I hope to return many more times to heal my mind and body. I pray that the Vaidyagrama doctors and team remain happy and healthy and continue to serve many more. God bless. I also want to thank the housekeeping staff, who worked tirelessly round the clock to keep Vaidyagrama in impeccable condition, and the kitchen staff for serving nutritious food delivered to the room.

Dear Vaidyagrama team,
I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional care and support I received during my stay at Vaidyagrama. The dedication and professionalism demonstrated by every one of you—doctors, therapists, and support staff—have been truly remarkable. The personalized attention, holistic treatment, and genuine concern for my well-being have contributed significantly to the recovery of my body and mind. Your unwavering commitment to the healing process is commendable, and I am incredibly grateful for the warm and nurturing environment you provided.
I especially enjoyed participating in the Satsang and interacting with doctors and like-minded individuals every afternoon. The flow of spirituality and detoxification through daily rituals at the temple provided much-needed relief for my mind and body. I thoroughly enjoyed the daily morning and evening prayers as well as the Vasti treatments. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to my healing team led by Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Pavithra, Dr. Arun, and Dr. Sajna S., for their outstanding work. I would also like to especially mention the priest at the temple, Rajnish, for his excellent work. Additionally, my extreme gratitude goes to therapists Sajith and Biju, as well as the housekeeping staff in my block. Thank you once again for all your hard work and attention. I am leaving Vaidyagrama not just with improved health but with fond memories and a sense of care and compassion.

Thank you all so much for such a wonderful, nurturing, and rejuvenating experience. The wildlife, lush nature, prayers, rituals, vibrant culture, and people will be deeply missed. Although my stay here has ended, I will take with me memories and connections that will serve me for life.

Dear Vaidyagrama Family,
A very big, big thanks for everything you have done for me. Though my stay was short and a roller coaster ride, I want to express my gratitude and share warmth and hugs with everyone. You addressed every single issue as much as you could and as quickly as possible.
Special mention to Dr. Nandana, Dr. Vishakha, Dr. Vinod, Dr. Sreeji, and Dr. Ramadas. All of them took good care of me, were very sweet, and understood me, guiding me through this short process of my healing journey. Thank you so much, doctors. My meeting with Dr. Ramaprasad was exceptionally amazing, with so much to learn from and enjoy in life. Thank you, sir. Dr. Poorna was very kind, understanding, and helpful. My special and important mention is about the therapists here—they are extremely sweet, and without them, the treatment wouldn’t have ever been complete. I wish all the Vaidyagrama family love, peace, and health.
With lots of love,

This is my 3rd time here at Vaidyagrama. Dr Rose's smile and care put me at ease from day one. Her attention to detail is something I admire. She answered all my questions patiently, even the quirky ones. This time my treatments were changed a few times as my body could not accept the first set of treatments. Dr. Rose came and checked on me multiple times and made sure that the new treatment was something my body accepted. The young ladies at the therapy sessions were just amazing. Indu, Bala, Karthika, Hema, Kalpana, and others who stepped in, all had a pleasant smile and were super professional. They were gentle and yet firm in their grip and took care of me like I was their very own. I have a better understanding of my body and hope to come back better soon.

I have the deepest gratitude and respect for every single person on the Vaidyagrama team.
Every single effort for the attention to my care was way beyond what I could have imagined, every day I discouraged something new about myself and others and our collective resilience for healing and growing. And with the kind of nurturing support offered here, I have felt I have been able to level up to a greater sense of awareness and presence. I feel divinely guided to have found my way here. Part of the journey I was meant to have. I expect the impact of my 28 days here will continue to be revealed and experienced in the next few months.
I look forward to seeing that.
My deepest thank you to all who serve here!!

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
Thank you for looking after us so well over the last 21 days. When we arrived, we were unsure if we would complete 21 days without our usual communication devices. Today, we are leaving fully rejuvenated and with a positive mindset for a better life ahead. I would like to thank Dr. Ramanand, Dr. Sajna C., and Dr. Sajna S. for their personal attention during our stay. The therapists Sandhya and Vaishnavi treated us like family, and their healing hands helped us recover faster. Jothika, Jithina, Abhirami, and Lince brightened our mornings and nights with their smiles and soothing foot massages. All the therapists, including Bindhu Mol, Hema, Abhirami, Srishma, and the wonderful supervisor trainee, made every effort to ensure we received the treatment we needed. The pooja and rituals added to the spirituality of the place. All in all, the smiling faces of everyone here are the perfect remedy for any ailment. I wish you all the best. Thank you.

This is our first visit to Vaidyagrama. It was totally good. The method of diagnosis without any scan and other tests. The way doctors get the inputs and their method of analysis and patience in hearing the patient's complaints. The doctor and patient ratio. A doctor is attached to a very small number of patients. Follow-up after and before treatments. Satvik food. Clean environment without air pollution and dust pollution. The rainwater harvesting system is good. Solar panels for energy are good. Nourishing green energy is good. -For nourishment to the mind, a lot of spiritual programs and Satsang are very useful.
The simplicity of doctors and their soft nature. Behaviours of subordinate staff are very good. Goshala needs some improvement. We are satisfied with the treatment; we feel we got a 70% cure and hope it will be 100% when we complete the dose of medicines.

This is the 2nd time we came to Vaidyagrama. We had a good time. The Doctors took good care of us. We are thankful and feel blessed. The staff that served us in therapy, treatment, food, medication, housekeeping of the room, etc., have been kind to us. We are blessed. We are taking medicine for 90 days. It is kind of overwhelming. Hope we can manage. Thanks again to Dr. Vinod, Dr. Nandana and big thanks to Dr. Ramadas.

I am writing with great joy in my heart. Coming here was the best decision I could make for my health, heart, and soul. Before arriving, I had high expectations about my time here and the transformation I would undergo. To my delight, my journey exceeded any expectations I had. I loved your holistic approach with a focus on the soul and the genuine care of the therapists. I am leaving as a wiser woman, at peace and free of joint pain, and I do not doubt that soon I will welcome new cartilage as well. With deep gratitude and appreciation.

This is my second visit to Vaidyagrama, and it has been a short visit, but it has given me the importance to consider taking greater care of my body, mind, and spirit. The peaceful and calm environment here soothes the soul and forces us to slow down and escape from the business of our lives. I am filled with immense gratitude for this place and the entire team who work so hard and are so kind to everyone. I am deeply thankful to the doctors and the team, including the lovely ladies who clean my room. I will return and stay 3 weeks, very shortly.

Dear Vaidyagrama Community,
One month in this serene and nourishing paradise can bring so much calmness and peace to one’s body and mind. Not to forget the spiritually uplifting talks by all the doctors. Dr. Ramanandan, I owe a ton of sincere gratitude for caring for me so selflessly and dedicatedly. Dr. Sreeji, Dr. Vishaga, Dr. Nandana – Thank you for keeping a close watch on me, even late into the night. Prateek, Binil, and Vinod were all dedicated therapists and doctors who took a keen interest in my well-being. Thanks a ton. I could write pages about the virtues of vaidyagrama, but I have a plan to catch up soon.

This is my second visit to Vaidyagrama. Thank you to Dr. Ramanandan, who not only treats our illness but also gives life Advice and wisdom. Thank you to the smiling, bright Dr. Ardent, and the dedicated and hard-working Dr Hima for looking after them so well. The therapist continues to be caring and nurturing in the treatments, as are all the staff.

Vaidyagrama's approach to service and giving should be out for me. My days just flew by. There are lots of things to do alongside, giving our body rest. Vaidyas feel like they are magicians and can understand much deeper issues than what might be only visible on the surface. I enjoyed my stay and am very grateful for what I have received.
Dr. Ardent, Dr. Hima, and Dr. Ramanandan were all excellent and gave as much time. I needed to discuss my health issues. My 13-year-old son was equally given treatment and well advised on what to do and don't.
Thank you very much. Best wishes.

To each and every single creator of this place, who I knew, and whom I don’t know, I thank you more than I know of all the thanks that exist in this world. I have never felt this good in my head mentally. Because of this place and everyone here who contributed to make me feel great. Special thanks to the kirtan night that helped to overcome my depression and know what joy feels like. My doctor Dr. Vishaga and my therapist are all amazing.

My sincere thanks to the entire Vaidyagrama team. I am so glad to have spent 7 days here under the amazing care of Dr. Ramadas and his team. Therapists Shiny and Aneesha did everything possible to make me comfortable with their treatment and procedures. The moment I met Dr. Ramadas, I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Dhanya and Dr. Abhiram were very patient and attentive throughout my stay, answering all my questions with a smile. Special thanks to Dr. Anjali for her care during the Vasti procedure. I hope to return many more times to heal my mind and body. I pray that the Vaidyagrama doctors and team remain happy and healthy and continue to serve many more. God bless. I also want to thank the housekeeping staff, who worked tirelessly round the clock to keep Vaidyagrama in impeccable condition, and the kitchen staff for serving nutritious food delivered to the room.

I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of healing and mental strength gained. My gut feels lighter, I am less hungry, and my sleep has improved. This experience has shown me that there is a method to this Madness (Process).
Every staff member I interacted with was truly present in the conversation, very helpful and incredibly supportive. I hope to return if time persists and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a pause, reset and recharge!
Thank you to all doctors, therapists, and office staff for guiding me through this healing journey. Take care and good luck!

Dear Vaidyagrama team,
I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional care and support I received during my stay at Vaidyagrama. The dedication and professionalism demonstrated by every one of you—doctors, therapists, and support staff—have been truly remarkable. The personalized attention, holistic treatment, and genuine concern for my well-being have contributed significantly to the recovery of my body and mind. Your unwavering commitment to the healing process is commendable, and I am incredibly grateful for the warm and nurturing environment you provided.
I especially enjoyed participating in the Satsang and interacting with doctors and like-minded individuals every afternoon. The flow of spirituality and detoxification through daily rituals at the temple provided much-needed relief for my mind and body. I thoroughly enjoyed the daily morning and evening prayers as well as the Vasti treatments. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to my healing team led by Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Pavithra, Dr. Arun, and Dr. Sajna S., for their outstanding work. I would also like to especially mention the priest at the temple, Rajnish, for his excellent work. Additionally, my extreme gratitude goes to therapists Sajith and Biju, as well as the housekeeping staff in my block. Thank you once again for all your hard work and attention. I am leaving Vaidyagrama not just with improved health but with fond memories and a sense of care and compassion.
Warm regards,

My experience at Vaidyagrama has exceeded all the hopes and expectations I had before my arrival. Deep down, I knew this space was in alignment with me. I'm glad to have trusted my intuition. The level of compassion and professionalism here is unparalleled and, most importantly, genuine. I cannot imagine a more conducive space to heal. Thank you all so much for such a wonderful, nurturing, and rejuvenating experience. The wildlife, lush nature, prayers, rituals, vibrant culture, and people will be deeply missed. Although my stay here has ended, I will take with me memories and connections that will serve me for life. I now have a new perspective and appreciation for my body and mind, along with tools to maintain health. To all the staff and the holy land that is Vaidyagrama, thank you. I will be returning. Om Shanti.

Dear Vaidyagrama Family,
A very big, big thanks for everything you have done for me. Though my stay was short and a roller coaster ride, I want to express my gratitude and share warmth and hugs with everyone. You addressed every single issue as much as you could and as quickly as possible.
Special mention to Dr. Nandana, Dr. Vishakha, Dr. Vinod, Dr. Sreeji, and Dr. Ramadas. All of them took good care of me, were very sweet, and understood me, guiding me through this short process of my healing journey. Thank you so much, doctors. My meeting with Dr. Ramaprasad was exceptionally amazing, with so much to learn from and enjoy in life. Thank you, sir. Dr. Poorna was very kind, understanding, and helpful. My special and important mention is about the therapists here—they are extremely sweet, and without them, the treatment wouldn’t have ever been complete. I wish all the Vaidyagrama family love, peace, and health.
With lots of love,

The time here feels transformative. The care and focus on patients like me have been beyond. Care and love. People do what they love to do. And being with other patients from around the planet has been enlightening, to say the least.
I’m returning home to a place I love. But I love Vaidyagrama too. And India. Experiencing spiritual presence in everything. Please know that I now must call the beautiful people who weave together this healing village. Love and joy to Vaidyagrama. Next time? Perhaps.

This is my 3rd time here at Vaidyagrama. Dr Rose's smile and care put me at ease from day one. Her attention to detail is something I admire. She answered all my questions patiently, even the quirky ones. This time my treatments were changed a few times as my body could not accept the first set of treatments. Dr. Rose came and checked on me multiple times and made sure that the new treatment was something my body accepted. The young ladies at the therapy sessions were just amazing. Indu, Bala, Karthika, Hema, Kalpana, and others who stepped in, all had a pleasant smile and were super professional. They were gentle and yet firm in their grip and took care of me like I was their very own. I have a better understanding of my body and hope to come back better soon.

I have the deepest gratitude and respect for every single person on the Vaidyagrama team.
Every single effort for the attention to my care was way beyond what I could have imagined, every day I discouraged something new about myself and others and our collective resilience for healing and growing. And with the kind of nurturing support offered here, I have felt I have been able to level up to a greater sense of awareness and presence. I feel divinely guided to have found my way here. Part of the journey I was meant to have. I expect the impact of my 28 days here will continue to be revealed and experienced in the next few months.
I look forward to seeing that.
My deepest thank you to all who serve here!!

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
Thank you for looking after us so well over the last 21 days. When we arrived, we were unsure if we would complete 21 days without our usual communication devices. Today, we are leaving fully rejuvenated and with a positive mindset for a better life ahead. I would like to thank Dr. Ramanand, Dr. Sajna C., and Dr. Sajna S. for their personal attention during our stay. The therapists Sandhya and Vaishnavi treated us like family, and their healing hands helped us recover faster. Jothika, Jithina, Abhirami, and Lince brightened our mornings and nights with their smiles and soothing foot massages. All the therapists, including Bindhu Mol, Hema, Abhirami, Srishma, and the wonderful supervisor trainee, made every effort to ensure we received the treatment we needed. The pooja and rituals added to the spirituality of the place. All in all, the smiling faces of everyone here are the perfect remedy for any ailment. I wish you all the best. Thank you.

It's been an exceptional experience at Vaidyagrama. We were made to feel completely at home by the entire team of care given. Dr. Ramanandan's treatment and caring attitude is very enduring and nurturing. It is very comforting to have smiling, affectionate, energetic, patient, professional, and ever-obliging doctors like Dr Rose and Dr Ardent to take care of us. All the therapists and supporting staff made our stay very memorable.
We pray to the Almighty to bless all of them with health, happiness, well-being, and peace of mind.

This is our first visit to Vaidyagrama. It was totally good. The method of diagnosis without any scan and other tests. The way doctors get the inputs and their method of analysis and patience in hearing the patient's complaints. The doctor and patient ratio. A doctor is attached to a very small number of patients. Follow-up after and before treatments. Satvik food. Clean environment without air pollution and dust pollution. The rainwater harvesting system is good. Solar panels for energy are good. Nourishing green energy is good. -For nourishment to the mind, a lot of spiritual programs and Satsang are very useful.
The simplicity of doctors and their soft nature. Behaviours of subordinate staff are very good. Goshala needs some improvement. We are satisfied with the treatment; we feel we got a 70% cure and hope it will be 100% when we complete the dose of medicines.
With heartfelt prayers,
