About the Centre:
AATMA stands for Approach of Ashtavaidyan Thaikkattu Mooss to Ayurveda. This centre for Ayurvedic healing was set up with a view to providing Ayurvedic treatment in the true Ashtavidya tradition, one that is fast gaining international recognition and reputation. Thus, preservation of health in the healthy and restoration of health to the diseased are our main objectives. It is solely health-focused, not a spa or a hotel. Hence, treatments are prescribed by the doctor(s), not ordered à-la-carte by patients. The same holds true for medicines and dietary prescriptions. Patients are closely monitored on a daily basis and treatment plans are sometimes changed to even more closely follow the patient’s unique response to treatment.
The Centre has been built keeping in mind the privacy of patients. It has individual cottages as well as single and double rooms, and patients can choose any of these depending on their needs. The centre is built in a coconut grove and the peaceful surroundings also contribute to the outcome of the treatment. We have also developed an organic herbal and vegetable garden, thereby reducing the use of chemicals and non-organic products. Since the primary object of the treatment is to heal, food provided to the patients are those that aid in this process as well.
We have a group of well-experienced technicians and caretakers who are equipped to cater to the needs of the patients. Healing and prevention of diseases are our objectives. Everyone at AATMA works together with one goal in mind- the healing of those who require it and making the process as comfortable as possible.
