I spent 24 days at the Tapasya Health and Wellness centre in February 2024 and had the most amazing stay. Doctors Amol and Ruchika Patil have established a beautiful haven of tranquility near Kolhapur where one can escape from day-to-day stresses and concentrate on maintaining or regaining good health. I followed their Panchakarma treatment, which is totally authentic, using natural Ayurvedic ingredients and traditional procedures, and which was personalised to my specific needs. The medical staff and therapists were all lovely, and really cared about how I felt during and after the treatments. They were professional and kind at the same time. I especially want to thank the wonderful female therapists - Gayatri, Jayashri, Savita, Shivani, Vidya, and Gautami, who have such big hearts and made me feel so special.
During my stay, I also received great yoga therapy, which really helped reduce my sciatica pain. Yoga therapist Sri Abhijit Bandgar also led each morning and evening’s beautiful yoga/meditation/pranayama sessions. All of this was supplemented by daily hand and feet acupressure massages, an unexpected treat!
And I have to mention the food …. Chef Nivas and his team do an amazing job in the kitchen, dealing expertly with each guest’s different requirements and making all the food utterly delicious and healthy.
The centre itself is set within beautifully tended gardens and the rooms, which have everything one needs for such a stay, are kept clean by the discreet and kind housekeeping staff. Good organisation is ensured by the friendly and helpful staff at reception. A huge THANK YOU to the whole team, for everything you do to create such a peaceful atmosphere that is wonderfully conducive to rest and recuperation.
I very much hope to return here on a regular basis and can thoroughly recommend Tapasya to anyone seeking authentic Ayurvedic healing and wellness.
