Maharishi Ayurveda · Pokhara, Nepal
Multi-day Panchakarma programs in the foothills of the Annapurna range. A doctor-designed treatment sequence, two therapists, warm oils, and silence.
The Space
On Our Tradition
We practice Maharishi Ayurveda — the complete, unedited science of life restored by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi with the great vaidyas of India and Nepal.
Ayurveda is not a menu of remedies; it is an understanding of how the body, mind, and environment move together. At Ayurveda House a physician listens first — to pulse, to history, to the quality of the day — and only then designs a program. Treatments are sequenced. Meals are sattvic. The pace is slow.
Our method is preparatory, cleansing, and restorative in that order: oleation (sneha) to soften tissues, sudation (sveda) to open channels, and Panchakarma to release what the body is ready to release. Each evening at six the house gathers for silent meditation.
Movement, breath, nerve impulse. Grounded with warmth, oil, and rhythm.
Digestion, metabolism, clarity. Cooled by bitterness, ghee, and rest.
Structure, stability, memory. Enlivened by dryness, heat, and movement.
Multi-day Programs
Longer programs allow deeper cleansing and better results. Each day is three hours of treatment, inclusive of all physician and vaidya consultations.
Home Protocol · Guided by Zoom
Three mornings of warm medicated ghee, then one day of gentle laxative therapy — the classical preparation for Panchakarma, completed at home before you arrive.
Taken lukewarm, on an empty stomach, between 5 and 7 am.
If ghee is hard to swallow, mix with warm 2% milk. Sip hot water with lemon for any discomfort. Do not eat until natural hunger returns — one to five hours later.
For those who cannot take ghee.
A medicated alternative prescribed by the doctor during your Zoom intake when dairy or fats are contraindicated, while still achieving the softening action of oleation.
Castor oil (hexane-free) is the classical choice.
Senna tea is offered when castor is not desired — for instance, if weight loss is not a goal. Best taken 5–7 am after a hot bath; results follow in 3–6 hours.

"Very professional and great treatments offered which were carried out with care. I went to discuss ADHD and was given a very holistic array of treatment options, including lifestyle. The doctor followed up with me multiple times and answered all of my extra questions, which has been very helpful! Thank you for your thoroughness!"

"I had a wonderful experience at the Ayurveda House! I had a consultation with the Ayurvedic doctor followed by 3 days of treatments — oil massage, shirodhara and a steam. All of the treatments were excellent and the staff were very professional and kind. Highly recommend!"
"I have done a few treatments there — patra potali and another treatment for my knee. The technicians were really good and the place was so peaceful and nice. I really like the doctor. I would also suggest looking into Transcendental Meditation while you are there. It's easy, effortless, and effective."
"I completed a four-week Panchakarma program at the Ayurveda House in Pokhara. I felt very well cared for throughout.
