As many of you know, we decided to change our location of our bi-annual trip to India, and we are conducting our two-week retreat at the Avn Arogya Ayurvedic Hospital, spa and resort in Madurai. This clinic was founded in 1930, and now under the leadership of Dr. Ramesh Varier.
Avn Arogya is a full-service Ayurvedic hospital, which caters to many people from every age group and from all over the world.
Dr. Varier and his team expertly help those who are sick and imbalanced become well. The hospital offers services ranging from children who are suffering from ADHD, autism and other disorders to adults who are experience degenerative imbalances to those who are at the end stages of their lives.
The facility also offers a full range of Pancha Karma therapies and treatments for those who are seeking balance.
