Beyond Travel
- Situated in the foothills of the Himalayas in Rishikesh, this five-day detox and Ayurveda retreat at Veda5 Wellness Center is a comprehensive luxury program designed to cleanse, restore, and reinvigorate the body from the inside out. The facility is one of the most well-appointed in the region, featuring 22 beautifully designed rooms and two mud huts, six dedicated Ayurveda treatment rooms, two yoga pavilions, a meditation cave, a swimming pool, and an acclaimed organic vegetarian restaurant. Each guest begins with a thorough consultation with an in-house Ayurvedic physician who creates a personalized detox and treatment protocol tailored specifically to their current health status and wellness goals.

From the moment guests arrive, they are enveloped in a sense of calm that is both immediate and profound, setting the tone for the entire experience ahead.
- Daily one-hour Ayurveda treatment sessions may include Panchakarma therapies, Shirodhara, herbal massage, or other classical treatments depending on individual prescription.
