Program
About the program
The term Ayurveda is derived from the ancient Sanskrit words ayur (life) and veda (science or knowledge). Therefore, Ayurveda translates to knowledge of life, with the goal of achieving inner strength, activating your self-healing powers, and bringing your entire being into balance.
After this intensive treatment, you’ll experience what can only be described as a rebirth.
From the Ayurvedic point of view, dosha kapha solidifies during the winter period and retains all impurities in the body, just as the blanket of snow falls from the sky and covers the landscapes in winter.
Spring dissolves these substances again, liquefying Kapha, just as in nature snow and ice melt and lead to floods. If the natural cleansing processes of the body can no longer cope with this flood, diseases are the result.
This cleansing treatment can be carried out all year round, but it is in spring that the body needs it most. In addition, the spring flows of energy favor the cleansing and regeneration processes in the body.
