Why come with me?
I’ve been a yoga teacher for over 25 years, and completed my Ayurvedic training in 2016. These practices are something I've lived with and come back to over many years.
My Panchakarma connection comes from my own lived experience.
After a severe concussion, I worked with a western medical team for several months without getting the results I needed. It was through Panchakarma at our centre in Nepal that I experienced a profound shift, a full recovery and my health returned.
I also noticed that the Panchakarma relieved many of my perimenopause symptoms, and I felt a clear return to balance in my body and energy.
Because of this, I've worked closely with and carefully selected the center in Nepal where our retreat takes place, ensuring that it meets the highest standards of traditional Ayurvedic care and integrity. It is a place I trust deeply, a home from home.
This retreat is something I've personally experienced as genuinely supportive and transformative, and I now guide others through it with care so they feel safe and supported throughout.
Our Panchakarma Retreat: A Place of Healing
Over 14 days in the breathtaking Kathmandu Hills, you’ll be supported through a carefully guided Panchakarma process designed to help your body rest, reset and return to balance.
The centre is run by highly trained Ayurvedic doctors and therapists specialising in traditional Panchakarma care. They are also deeply kind and beautiful human beings who treat you as family.
Each guest is supported individually by their Ayurvedic doctor with treatments tailored specifically to their constitution and health needs.
Treatments include traditional Ayurvedic massage, herbal scrubs and steam therapies, and traditional cleansing therapies where appropriate. Everything is chosen to help your body gradually release stress, fatigue and accumulated imbalance.
Daily yoga, meditation, breathwork and yoga nidra support the system alongside the treatments, helping create a greater sense of calm and connection to yourself again.
Meals are freshly prepared according to Ayurvedic principles to support digestion, nourishment and the cleansing process.
"I had a wonderful experience. This is a peaceful place for real healing. The therapists and staff are highly skilled and genuinely care about their clients. The environment is peaceful and supportive, and their guidance is both professional and easy to follow. It’s rare to find such a caring and knowledgeable team, I’m truly grateful for the positive impact they’ve had on my well-being. "

What You'll Take Home
A body that feels lighter, clearer and more at ease.
Digestion, sleep and energy that has genuinely shifted, not just rested.
Hormonal balance and nervous system calm that extends well beyond the retreat itself.
Personalised guidance from your Ayurvedic doctor, including tailored recommendations for herbs, daily routines and nutrition to take home with you.
A deeper sense of knowing what your body needs, and how to support it.
And a feeling, for many women, of being more like yourself again.
Your Retreat Day
Every day follows a steady, supportive rhythm designed around your Panchakarma process.
Mornings begin with a personalised consultation. Your doctor reviews how you are and adjusts your treatments as needed. Nothing is fixed or formulaic. Everything responds to you.
Your treatments are spread thoughtfully throughout the day. Restorative bodywork, soothing therapies and traditional cleansing treatments work together to help the body release tension, clear accumulated imbalance and restore its natural rhythm. Everything is tailored to your individual needs and how your body is responding.
Panchakarma goes deeper than most wellness experiences. Alongside the nurturing and restorative treatments, it includes traditional cleansing therapies, including nasya and basti. These are guided entirely by your Ayurvedic doctor, personalised to your needs and carried out with complete care and privacy. They are time-honoured medical procedures that work at a level most wellness experiences never reach.
For many women, they are the part of the process that creates the most profound and lasting shift.
Panchakarma is also a powerful preventative therapy. As your body releases what it no longer needs, your digestion, energy and overall vitality are supported. Most women leave feeling clearer, lighter and more energised.
The centre itself holds you throughout. Lush forest views. Crisp cottons in your king-size ensuite bedroom. A serene yoga studio and tranquil gardens. Every detail is designed to support both comfort and deep restoration.

You're ready for a holistic approach to your health, one that works at the level of the nervous system, digestion and hormones

You are navigating a life transition, hormonal change, perimenopause or menopause and notice shifts in sleep, energy, mood or resilience

"The center is serene, the rooms and beds are so comfortable, the massages are superb, and the entire staff is top notch. I highly, highly recommend it. I asked the doctor on my first day what I would feel like after a Panchakarma. He said, “You will just feel happier and at peace.” And he was exactly right!"

What is Panchakarma?
Panchakarma is a traditional Ayurvedic process of cleansing and rejuvenation, designed to restore balance in the body and nervous system at a deep level.
Over time, stress, lifestyle and environmental toxins can build up in the body. This affects your digestion, energy and mental clarity. Panchakarma supports the gentle removal of these toxins, returning the body to a more balanced state
In Ayurveda, this process also supports ojas, the subtle essence associated with resilience, vitality and immunity
Over the 14-day retreat, this creates the conditions for a profound restoration. A space to settle, regain clarity and steadiness, and reconnect with yourself in a more grounded way.

"This was my first experience with an Ayurvedic retreat. I found it truly relaxing. And the location is beautiful. Many of the people I met have been to other centers over the years in India and elsewhere. They all said that the treatments here are the best they have experienced. I have to agree that all the treatments I got were top notch. The food is simple and delicious. Everyone was very kind."

FAQ
Questions you may have
Is Panchakarma safe - I've never done anything like this before?
Yes. Panchakarma has been practised for thousands of years as a time-tested process of restoration and balance. At this centre, every guest is assessed by experienced Ayurvedic doctors before treatments begin, and everything is tailored to your constitution and current state of health. You are never pushed beyond what your system can safely integrate. The intention is always deep, supported restoration. Not pressure. Not overwhelm.
Do I need experience with Ayurveda, yoga or detox retreats?
Not at all. Many guests arrive curious but new to Ayurveda and Panchakarma. You’ll be gently guided through each stage, with clear explanations and ongoing support from experienced practitioners. There will be yoga options to choose from. This retreat is designed for thoughtful people seeking depth and restoration, not experts.
Will it be intense or uncomfortable?
The process is deep, and also nurturing. This is not a spa retreat, and it is normal for the body to go through periods of adjustment as it begins to release and rebalance. You are fully supported throughout this process. Treatments are grounding and restorative, meals are carefully prepared, and rest is prioritised throughout the day. Some moments may feel unfamiliar as your system shifts, but you are held and guided at every stage. The intention is always to support the body’s natural capacity to restore, not overwhelm it.
What does Panchakarma help with?
Panchakarma supports deep restoration for those noticing shifts in energy, sleep, digestion, stress levels or emotional steadiness. It is especially supportive during times of hormonal transition, including perimenopause and menopause, when the body may feel less predictable than it once did. Many guests arrive feeling out of sync with themselves, more easily depleted, or simply aware that they need a deeper level of support than rest alone can offer.
What if I’ve never travelled to Nepal, and I'm travelling alone, will I feel safe?
Yes. We meet your flight and take you to the retreat centre. Many of our guests are travelling solo. The retreat centre is well established and experienced in welcoming international guests, and offers a warm and nourishing environment. Accommodation, meals, treatments, transfers and daily care are all organised for you so you can simply arrive and rest into the experience. Nepal is known for its warmth and hospitality, and many guests quickly feel at ease and at home.
What happens if I get sick or have a reaction?
You are in safe hands. You are being cared for by trained Ayurvedic doctors and therapists who are highly experienced in supporting the body through every stage of the Panchakarma process, including the moments of adjustment that can arise as the body begins to release and rebalance. My role is to make sure you feel safe and well looked after throughout. Your comfort and wellbeing is our highest priority at every stage.
Why are spaces limited?
Panchakarma is a deeply personalised process that requires individual attention and careful guidance throughout. By keeping numbers small, every guest receives the level of care this process genuinely requires. It also allows for a quieter, more contained experience — one that supports deeper rest and restoration.
Is there any support after I return home?
The care doesn't end at the airport. You'll be given recommendations from your consultants in terms of practical tools and adjustments to support you in the days and weeks following the retreat. I will also be checking in with you to make sure that your transition back home is smooth and easeful.
If you’ve read through and feel this may be something you’d like to explore, you’re very welcome to get in touch.
I can then send you a short application form so I can understand a little more about you, your health, what you’re currently experiencing and how best to support you.
If you'd prefer to talk things through first, you’re welcome to book a short call and we can talk through any questions and see if this feels like the right support for you at this time.
There is no pressure to decide. It’s simply an open first step if you’d like to explore further.
