Ayurveda, an evolving body of wisdom, stands as a champion of positive health, natural beauty, and longevity. What distinguishes Ayurveda from other medical systems is its unique approach to treatment. Embracing a holistic perspective, Ayurvedic practitioners focus on treating the individual – encompassing body, mind, and soul – rather than merely addressing the disease. The goal is to restore the natural harmony and balance within the person. Ayurvedic care involves a comprehensive package, incorporating herbal remedies, external therapies, diet control, yoga, meditation, and lifestyle adjustments.
At the heart of Ayurveda lies the recognition of the vitiation of Vatha, Pitha, and Kapha doshas as the fundamental cause of various ailments. According to Ayurveda, the sole effective treatment involves restoring the balance of these doshas. To maintain optimal body function and sustain health, Ayurveda emphasizes the necessity of eliminating toxins that accumulate due to diverse metabolic activities. This detoxification process, known as Panchakarma, plays a crucial role in preserving the proper functioning of the body's various systems.
Embark on a transformative journey into traditional Ayurvedic treatments and clinics at ShinShiva, where the focus is on refreshing, re-energizing, and rejuvenating. Guided by the expertise of Dr. V. Franklin, a seasoned Ayurvedic practitioner, and supported by qualified doctors and masseurs, ShinShiva offers effective treatments for an extensive range of ailments.

Description
In contemporary times, prevalent illnesses often stem from lifestyle choices, termed "lifestyle diseases." These ailments arise from daily habits, encompassing routines, dietary preferences, physical activity levels, and sleep patterns.
Ayurveda offers comprehensive guidance on leading a healthy lifestyle, aiming to both prevent and address these lifestyle-related diseases. While modern medicine primarily targets symptom reduction post-disease onset, Ayurveda takes a different approach. It focuses on healing by addressing the root cause and emphasizes the importance of lifestyle in disease prevention. Ayurveda's teachings highlight how one's lifestyle choices can aid in averting these diseases altogether. -

I just returned from a 27day stay at Shinshiva. It was a wonderful experience overall. There were always doctors there for consultation, and the wonderful friendly staff from the therapists to the dining room staff, housekeeping and grounds staff. The resort overlooks the Arabian Sea, a perfect place to view the early morning fishermen as they send out their nets. The grounds are immaculately kept as are the rooms. The dining area is open-air covered with a thatched roof which I felt added to the ambience of the resort . The first priority of Shinshiva is Ayurveda, and treatments are planned for your specific needs with Dr. Franklin overseeing your special needs, implemented by the doctors on staff, from type of treatments daily to Ayurvedic medicines that they administer, again to your specific case. Mine is Rheumatoid Arthritis, so the my treatments were specific to that. From my arrival until my departure I have to say that I experienced a tremendous improvement. I found I was able to walk 2km wheras when I arrived I would be hard-pressed to achieve 200 metres. The pain level of my arthritis was extremely reduced. I have returned home with a supply of Ayurvedic medicines and a new love for south Indian cuisine. I've been scouring the local shops for ingredients to try and recreate some of the delicious foods that were served at Shinshiva. It was fascinating to learn what it takes to become an Ayurvedic doctor, and some background about what it takes in terms of study and practical applications. Dr. Arya is a beautiful young doctor with high ideals and a gorgeous smile, and totally approachable. All of the doctors there are highly dedicated. I am now back home with wonderfully fond memories, a much 'lighter' body in terms of the arthritis, and looking forward to relieving my body of the final issues with this horrid disease. If all works well, I would love to return again next year for a follow-up. In every way, physically and mentally, it has been an amazing journey. If anyone would like to talk to me or contact me about my stay, I have instructed the manager and head doctor that I would be pleased to talk to anyone. Shinshiva has my personal email address which they will share with you.

Rooms are neat and clean. There is room cleaning every day. Food is included : breakfast , lunch , and dinner. Massages are amazing. The view is pleasant and calming. This seems less like a hospital and more like a resort. If you can imagine a place that's a good balance between a hospital and a resort, Shinshiva would be it. We took the 14 day stay and we could already feel the difference.

I was only able to stay for 8 days, meaning I couldn't do the entire detox procedures. However, these 8 days were just fantastic! The treatments were very, very professional, and my therapists Mina and Athina had magic hands. After this week, I already felt so relaxed and calm. The food also was just incredible. They have a big variety and make everything fresh according to your taste. Meena and the entire kitchen and service team are so welcoming. Meena always had the best tips for us, what to eat but also where to go, etc. I'm very grateful to the entire team for making it such a special stay.

My partner and I have been going to Shinshiva every couple of years since 2005. Why? .. because Shinshiva is a very special place. The care provided, by all including the doctors, therapists, restaurant staff, cleaners and management is beyond wonderful. The location and views, perched on a cliff overlooking a fishing village and the Arabian sea is peaceful and magical. This is not some fancy resort, but a traditional and authentic haven of peace and healing.
