In Ayurveda, healing happens through herbal medicines, medicated ghee and other treatments, which are administered daily in different doses as prescribed by the doctor. Also, after the completion of the treatments, medications might be prescribed to be taken regularly to stay healthy.
Naturopathy is a drug-less system, which heals the body using its own innate healing power. Treatments are modalities used to activate the healing power within you. Scientific application of natural healing powers and of human touch awakens the ultimate healer - your Body. While Fasting - the supreme remedy - cleans you to cellular level, the natural diet nourishes and heals the physical body (‘Annamaya kosha'), Energy Medicine works inthe physiological level (‘Pranamaya kosha') and Yoga makes its impact in the mental layer (‘Manomaya kosha). The idea is to slowly heal the root causes of ailments - this is a gradual process and will also need changes in your lifestyle. You may be able to reduce or completely stop your existing medications as the body organs will restart working at their optimum.
There is nothing to worry about as there are no drugs or the usage of ghee in our treatments. Medical help is always available. All our doctors are well qualified in Naturopathy and monitor every patient very closely. We also have a tie-up with a good local hospital in case Allopathic attention is ever required.
You may travel light. You will be provided comfortable cotton, white pajama kurtas that are to be worn during your time at Prakriti Shakti. We also have excellent quality toiletries in every room. You may carry your personal toiletries only if you particularly wish to use them. Our doctors advise against deodorants, perfumes, creams and lotions while here. There will be just the correct use of coconut oil to keep your skin and hair moisturized.
Your schedule will be well planned. We have not experienced anyone - even very active people - complain of boredom while at Prakriti Shakti. Besides, the treatments work best when you let your mind, body and soul be relaxed. Your body will adjust beautifully to the early morning starts and sleeping early at nights to maximise the benefits. You may carry books if you so wish. We have a well-stocked library too. As for activities, there is a swimming pool you may use, a carrom board and nature walks under doctor’s supervision.
We are at a height of 2500 ft above sea level. This makes the air fresh and free of pollution.

No, the nature walks are very easy. Also, we will not push your body beyond its comfortable capacity. There will be a support vehicle accompanying the walks to help if required.
Yes, the swimming pool is suitable to use all through the year. Being in the open, the water temperature does drop during the nights but is extremely invigorating during early morning and through the day. It helps your body to swim in slightly cool water. You may be restricted from swimming by doctors, if medically indicated.
No. The juices and raw diet help the body to stay light and use the energy for healing. Digestive processes take up the majority of our body's energy. By keeping a light diet, the energy gets redirected to areas of the body that requires attention. The doctors will also monitor your body readings every morning and evening to ensure you stay well nourished all through.
Our Chef has had a long tenure of making delicious cooked food. Raw food is another expertise he has developed over the years. A very keen sense of good taste is retained to make the food attractive to look-at and delicious to eat. We are certain that you will change your mind about raw food offerings after this stay.
We are very strict about tea/coffee not being allowed. Our doctors have used acupressure very successfully in handling such situations. All the patients have very happily kicked their habit of tea/coffee as the first thing in the morning and even during the day and replaced it with juices and smoothies.
