Mitra Hermitage Ayurveda Hospital / 22 Day Panchakarma Detoxification Program

At Mitra Hermitage Ayurveda Hospital, leisure is thoughtfully interwoven into the healing experience, offering guests serene spaces to unwind, reconnect with nature, and reflect in tranquility. Nestled on the quiet banks of the Karamana River, the retreat provides a river-facing relaxation space located above the Vishnu and Siva cottages. This open, breezy area invites guests to step out of their rooms and into nature’s embrace, offering comfortable seating, board games, and an ideal ambiance for reading or meditation. Whether you're enjoying the sound of the flowing river or engaging in a quiet moment of reflection, this space enhances both relaxation and recovery.

The Sunflower Dining Area, set on the rooftop of the Middle Garden View Rooms, serves as a social yet peaceful space to enjoy freshly cooked meals prepared under doctor supervision. The small in-house library allows guests to explore books during their stay, promoting quiet engagement of the mind. Additionally, free WiFi connectivity is available in select common areas such as the waiting lounge, Trinity Cottages, and the riverfront space, allowing for occasional digital connection if needed. With a harmonious blend of comfort, calmness, and natural surroundings, leisure at Mitra Hermitage supports both mental rest and rejuvenation in the most organic way.

At Mitra Hermitage Ayurveda Hospital, the foundation of healing lies in authentic Ayurvedic practices that blend time-tested wisdom with personalized attention. With a philosophy centered on “Towards Holistic Health Care,” every treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation that evaluates the physical, mental, and social dimensions of each individual. The hospital is renowned for its expertise in Panchakarma therapy, which includes five core detoxification procedures: Vamana (emesis), Virechana (purgation), Snehavasthi (medicated oil enema), Kashayavasti (decoction enema), and Nasya (nasal administration). These therapies are performed strictly in accordance with classical Ayurvedic texts using high-quality, organically sourced medicines. This approach not only supports physical healing but also balances the Tridoshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—to restore overall well-being.

Mitra Hermitage also excels in treating chronic and complex conditions such as arthritis (including rheumatoid arthritis), spinal disorders, Hepatitis C (genotype 1 & 2), psoriasis, urinary incontinence in elderly women, stress-related disorders, and neurological issues like MS and spastic spinal paralysis. A special post-chemo detoxification programme is also available to remove residual toxins from chemotherapy, revitalizing the nervous system, enhancing immunity, and boosting vitality. The hospital relies on contamination-free, rigorously tested herbal formulations prepared by its parent institution, Sree Chithra Pharmacy, established in 1915. With meticulous quality control and patient safety protocols—including the world's first use of ETO-sterilized disposable vasti kits—Mitra Hermitage sets new standards in traditional Ayurvedic healthcare.

The dietary regimen at Mitra Hermitage is an integral part of treatment, supervised directly by Dr. Anitha Mahesh. Meals are curated to support the individual’s Prakriti (body constitution) and maintain Tridoshic balance. All ingredients are sourced from local farmers who follow organic practices, and many herbs, vegetables, and spices are grown within the hospital's own garden. The oils used for therapies and internal medicines undergo rigorous lab testing to ensure purity and freedom from heavy metals, pesticides, or contaminants. Embracing the Japanese philosophy of Kaizen (continuous improvement), Mitra Hermitage integrates Ayurvedic wisdom with modern safety, eco-conscious practices, and patient-centered care—making it not just a hospital, but a sanctuary of transformative healing
