Six Senses Vana

Guided by senior Ayurvedic doctors, this programme realigns your energy and restores balance between body and mind. Vana's Ayurvedic team begins with a deep diagnostic consultation to determine your current imbalances, then designs a personalised protocol of treatments, herbs, and nutrition.

Treatments draw on the full scope of classical Ayurveda: Abhyanga, Shirodhara, Basti, Pinda Sweda, and more. Daily yoga, pranayama, and meditation practices complement the physical treatments. The minimum duration of 14 nights reflects the time Ayurveda genuinely requires to shift deep patterns.

Available as 14 or 17 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

The deepest and most transformative programme at Six Senses Vana. Panchakarma is Ayurveda's classical five-action detoxification and rejuvenation protocol, designed to purify the body at the cellular level. At Vana, it is offered only after careful diagnostic assessment by highly qualified Ayurvedic doctors, and followed in full over a minimum of 21 nights.

The process moves through preparatory phases (Poorvakarma), the main purification procedures (Panchakarma), and a carefully managed recovery phase (Paschatkarma). The experience is profound: guests describe it as a complete reset of the system, with lasting effects on energy, digestion, sleep, and mental clarity.

21 nights minimum. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire. This is the programme for those ready for a genuinely deep transformation.

An empowering programme for new mothers: designed to support recovery after childbirth and help women transition into their new role with strength, health, and peace of mind. Ayurveda has a deeply developed tradition of postnatal care (Sutika Paricharya) that addresses the depletion and recovery needs of the postpartum body.

The programme is tailored to each mother and her specific recovery needs: nourishing Ayurvedic treatments to rebuild strength and vitality, nutritional protocols to support healing and breastfeeding, gentle yoga and breathwork for the recovering body, and the restorative power of the Vana environment.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A nurturing programme for mothers-to-be: designed to prepare body and mind for childbirth through the wisdom of Ayurveda. The programme recognises the unique needs of each woman and addresses the aches, anxieties, and physical changes of pregnancy with personalised Ayurvedic care.

Gentle Ayurvedic treatments safe for pregnancy, toning of abdominal muscles, nourishing nutrition aligned with the trimester, and a cocoon of calm in the Himalayan foothills. Yoga practices adapted for pregnancy and meditation for emotional preparation are woven throughout.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A programme working with the body's energetic anatomy through yoga, meditation, and sound healing. The chakra system maps seven energy centres from the base of the spine to the crown, each associated with different physical, emotional, and psychological functions. When these centres are blocked or imbalanced, it manifests as stress, anxiety, disconnection, or physical symptoms.

The programme combines chakra-specific asana sequences, pranayama, guided meditation, singing bowl and sound healing sessions, and Ayurvedic treatments chosen for their energetic properties. The Himalayan setting carries its own energetic resonance that amplifies the practice.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A cleanse for body and mind. This programme shakes off fatigue, rebalances metabolism, and boosts the immune system through a curated detox meal plan, Ayurvedic treatments, therapies to slow the fight-or-flight response, and a digital detox.

The approach works on multiple levels: digestive cleansing through Ayurveda, nervous system reset through yoga and breathwork, and mental clarity through the digital detox and meditation. Energy levels reset; guests consistently report newfound clarity within days.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A programme built around hormonal intelligence: understanding and optimising the menstrual cycle to achieve greater physical and mental wellbeing. One of the key factors in overall health is understanding how to live in alignment with one's hormonal rhythm rather than against it.

The programme equips guests with tools and knowledge to address hormonal imbalances arising from lifestyle factors: Ayurvedic treatments and herbal protocols, nutritional guidance, yoga practices aligned with cycle phases, and mindfulness to support emotional regulation throughout the month.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A programme designed to support women through one of life's most significant transitions. The Mindful Menopause Journey brings together Ayurvedic medicine, yoga, nutritional medicine, and mindfulness practices to address the hormonal, physical, and emotional dimensions of menopause.

Ayurvedic doctors assess the individual's constitution and imbalances, then prescribe specific treatments, herbal protocols, and dietary guidance tailored to her stage and symptoms. Yoga nidra, restorative yoga, and meditation practices support the emotional dimension of the journey. The Himalayan setting and the complete removal from daily pressures amplify the healing.

Available as 7 or 14 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

If getting to sleep or staying asleep is a struggle, or you wake up feeling tired, this program addresses the reasons why. Experts track your sleep patterns and help you reset through a combination of sleep therapies, yoga nidra, holistic massages, nighttime soporific drinks, pranayama, and meditation.

The program includes a complimentary two-night sleep tracker and analysis, Ayurvedic treatments, Natural Healing and Tibetan Healing therapies, and personalised nutrition. The benefits compound: better sleep strengthens the immune system, slows ageing, improves memory, and reduces low-grade inflammation associated with chronic disease.

Available as 5, 7, or 14 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A programme that uses the Himalayan landscape as its primary therapeutic tool. Guided mindfulness hikes through the forests and foothills around Dehradun are combined with breathwork, meditation, Ayurvedic treatments, and natural healing therapies to create a stress reset grounded in movement and nature.

There is strong evidence that time in nature — particularly in forest environments — reduces cortisol, lowers blood pressure, and restores nervous system balance. The hikes are adapted to each guest's fitness level and the mindfulness component transforms the walk into a moving meditation practice.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

One of the most distinctive programmes in the world of luxury wellness: a dedicated programme in Traditional Tibetan Medicine (Sowa Rigpa), one of the oldest and most complete healing systems in existence. Vana's Tibetan doctors and practitioners are among the few outside Tibet offering this at a serious level.

The programme heals mind and emotions through ancient Tibetan diagnostics (pulse reading, urine analysis), herbal formulas, Ku Nye massage, Moxibustion, and mindfulness practices rooted in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. It is particularly effective for those dealing with stress, trauma, emotional imbalance, or those who feel conventional medicine has not fully addressed their condition.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A 14-night programme designed for sustainable weight management through a combination of personalised nutrition, physical activity, meditation, biohacking, and a curated daily meal plan designed around your body's specific needs.

Ayurvedic doctors and nutritionists work together to understand your metabolic type and design a protocol that addresses the root causes of weight imbalance rather than simply restricting calories. Daily activities, fitness, and body treatments complement the nutritional approach.

14 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A programme centred on yoga and meditation in the foothills of the Himalayas: one of the world's most powerful settings for this practice. Vana's yoga faculty draws on multiple traditions — Hatha, Iyengar, Kundalini, and restorative — and the programme is adapted to each guest's level and intention.

Daily private yoga sessions are complemented by pranayama, meditation, group classes, Ayurvedic treatments, and natural healing therapies. The setting amplifies the practice: early morning sessions in the sal forest, meditation in the Himalayan air, and the grounding influence of the land itself.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.

A cleanse that works through the yogic system rather than Ayurveda. The Yogic Detox combines asana (Hatha yogic postures) and Sat Kriya (Kundalini yoga), pranayama, and meditation with a nutritious, balanced diet to offer a profound purification experience.

The yogic approach to detox operates on the pranic body: using breath, movement, and specific kriyas to release toxins and stagnation held in the nervous system and organs. The effect is both physical and deeply psychological — many guests find this programme more emotionally liberating than a purely dietary approach.

Available as 5 or 7 nights. All inclusive: accommodation, full-board, daily treatments, group classes, wellness consultation, and retreat attire.
