Every individual is inherently characterized by their Doshas, a fundamental concept in Ayurveda. These doshas determine a person's 'Prakrithi' or constitutional type, and there are seven distinct categories based on dosha dominance: Vata Prakrithi (Vata type), Pitta Prakrithi (Pitta type), Kapha Prakrithi (Kapha type), Vata-Kapha Prakrithi, Vata-Pitta Prakrithi, Pitta-Kapha Prakrithi, and Tridosha Prakrithi (Vata-Pitta-Kapha type).
Numerous factors, including lifestyle and adverse climatic conditions, can disrupt the doshic balance, leading to various health issues.
In Ayurveda, the foundation of wellness lies in understanding one's unique body constitution (Dosha), preferences, and overall health. This approach personalizes dietary regimens to harmonize with each guest's distinctive needs. Experienced Ayurvedic doctors craft individual diet charts. The hospital boasts an in-house restaurant with a skilled chef who, guided by Dr. Franklin's Panchakarma Institute medical experts, prepares and serves food. The hospital's dietary offerings strictly adhere to a vegetarian ethos, ensuring a balanced and wholesome experience.
