Dr.Unni’s Agastyaa Heritage Ayurvedic Hospital & Prittwi Resort
Premium Ayurveda Hospital
India / Kerala / Kovalam
Ayurveda is a medical system of treatments applying a holistic approach to health and wellbeing. It works with personalized healthcare by evaluating both the body and the mind to diagnose and manage health issues.
Treatments are based on natural methods such as massage, diet, yoga and meditation in combination with herbal medicines. Symptoms of disease are relieved step by step through detoxification and then cured. The ingredients can be used on a long-term basis with no ill-effect. They also help to prevent illness by balancing a person’s physical, emotional and spiritual states.
The basis of this system originates 5,000 years ago in India where sages, or yogis, started to study immortality. Their learning’s were documented in classic Hindu scripts called “the Vedas” with the earliest written records dating back some 3,000 years. Agastyaa was one of these sages and often considered the father of Indian medicine.
Classical Ayurveda medicine was divided into eight branches:
Internal medicine and therapeutics Specific organ diseases – eyes, ear, nose, throat Surgery Toxicology
Psychiatry Paediatrics Rejuvenation Virilification – the use of aphrodisiacs and fertility boosting agents to improve sexual function and generative tissues
Traditionally the wisdom of the sages was transferred from generation to generation within families with the name Vaidya. Hence traditional medicine men in Indian villages were called vaidyas.
In today’s India, Ayurveda has evolved into a licensed form of science practiced by doctors with a university degree in medicine and government authorization. The first two years’ curriculum is focusing on basic human physiology and is the same for both Ayurveda and Allopathic medical degrees. The final three years of education is focused on treatment procedures. A qualified Ayurveda physician has the title BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurveda Medical System) and needs to annually register with the health authorities.
kalari & kathakali technique
We have developed a unique form of massage where the therapist uses his or her feet to provide for optimal stimulation of the patient’s inner biochemistry, supporting effective healing.
This technique is based on traditional wisdom deriving from Kalari and Kathakali.
Kalari is an ancient form of martial art, which originated in the south of India several thousands years ago. And, Kathakali – with its origins from some 1,500 years ago in Kerala – is a classical performance art with dance dramas that were traditionally conducted at night until early morning.
Practitioners of both disciplines needed strong flexibility and strength for their practice. When injured they healed themselves with techniques stimulating so called marma points (specific energy fields in a body and similar to acupuncture). This way they mobilized their bodies to self-heal.

Wonderful place!
Wonderful place! The clinic, procedures, food and staff everything is perfect. Dr. Unnis helped me feel young and healthy again. This is my second time coming and I don't want to leave. I will be back again!

It was the first time I visited an Ayurveda clinic. After three weeks, my physical complaints were almost gone. The result was more than convincing, as conventional medicine in Germany had no answers to my complaints. You have to keep in mind that it is a clinic and not a wellness resort. They work with you for up to 4 hours a day. The facility is only 1 minute away from the beach. I am sure that I will go to Dr. Unnis again. November 2022

This is one of the best choice clinic, maybe it's a little more $ then clinic around. However, it's very organized, everything work as a clock . Staff and location is excellent. Helped me with my condition, been there multiple times and come back again. One more thing, they have a high focus on cleanliness (very important in India)

I was the second time there in December 2023 (high season), first time low season in May 2023. If I had a free choice, I would go again in low season, much less people, the Doctor has more time to talk to you without stress, no waiting time etc. The weather might not be optimal in low season, but it is still enjoyable. It is quite hektic in high season with so many people, but actually all is well organized. Yes, there is a feeling that this is more commercialized (in comparison with low season time) but we are all working for makinig money, why should the others act differently? You get a good service, food, good treatments and short but enough attention from Dr. Unni and Dr. Sultana and other colleagues. The advantages of high season are: better weather, some additional offers and events as lecture by Dr. Unni about Ayurveda, Therapeutical Yoga from Vishnu (if you do it ask him for emotional training, might be very helpful), other things. When I was leaving, with most of people I talked to, we said we meed again there in one year. I feel that this treatment became a yearly must for me no matter what. I enjoy totally the friendliness of local people, I always come there with a smile, stay and leave with a smile and think about coming there with a smile. And of course this is a great thing I can do for my health. Dr. Unni offers a great Yoga class in the morning with Sajith. I would wish that in a very high season there should be offered 2 classes, maybe separately for the hotel guests and separately for clinic guests, because when we were almost 30 people in the class it was not really pleasant on a limited space. All in all I would very much recommend Ayurveda treatment at Dr. Unnis, also hotel itself. It is always clean, good insect protection (was totall important for me), very friendly personell, good food. Look forward to visit you again!

I was there in Dr Unni’s Agasthya heritage Ayurveda resort for 3 weeks.I went there with my husband’s ailments. I took him in a wheelchair. Glad and grateful to Dr Unni, Dr Sultana, and their other active doctors specially Aneesha, Darsana , Arya who took care of him so that he could recover hale and healthy and discharged by walking on his own feet.. This occurred only through the doctors ,therapist and all the others who were involved in his treatments . It was a wonderful experience staying in their resort enjoying the organic healthy food. It was soothing for the body and soul.. It was a real experience for us.. We felt as if we were at our home.. Even the reception staff like Tijeesh were making us comfortable by taking care of each and everything. We recommend this hospital to all our friends and well wishers.,

Not without good reason people call Kerala God's own country. Agastya Ayurveda Garden is definitely Paradise on Earth. Arriving there, the shade of the palm trees and the ocean breeze making for a pleasant temperature. Staying in the huts made traditionally out of local materials, allowing for a comfortable climate without being annoyed by the sound of airconditioning. Strolling about the gardens and the beach, enjoying gorgeous views from the cliffs and the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen. Agastya Garden has very friendly and helpful staff, who do their utmost to help you. Last but not least, food is great and the fruit platters they serve are awesome! Staying in Agastya Ayurveda Garden is a wonderful, inspriring and unforgettable experience!

Good day! It was my first time in India and in the clinic. The first 7 days were difficult for me, but when I saw the result of the procedures, it was a delight. For the first time in many years, the skin cleared of psoriasis. I am very grateful to everyone who works in the clinic, because there are so many positive and sunny smiles from them. My team of masseurs was very cool. Special thanks, of course, Dr.Unni!!! Good luck!!!

I have only positive things to say about my experience at the Centre. It was an uplifting and healing time thanks to the attentive, warm and hardworking staff, experienced and loving therapists and talented cooks. Everyone is welcoming, with a smile and a desire to help you fulfill any request. The environment is wholesome and rich with nature and beauty, and close to the beach (you can take a quick walk to Kovalam Beach from a quaint pathway that leads to the doors of Agastyaa). The views from the rooms are something to wake up too. They have a high focus on comfort and cleanliness. One of the more well established places in the area. I've left the centre feeling refreshed and revitalized. Not to mention, I feel apart of a new and loving community. I highly recommend Dr. Unni's Agastyaa.

I was recommended this clinic, but it was way below my expectations. Total waste of my money and my time....Doctors are very commercially minded, and do not really spend too much time with the patients. I also dont think they can really help most people with their health issues, as they are not that good at diagnosing what is the problem and the root of the problem. Food was also below average, in terms of being beneficial for the purging and detox process. It is a buffet offering rather than personalized. I slept really badly in the hotel, not sure whether from the treatments or the food. The staff in the hotel is lovely, that is why I gave it one more star.

Ayant passé deux semaines dans les environs de Chowara au sud de Kovalam, nous avons voulu visiter l'Agastya Garden dont nous recevons régulièrement en Suisse la publicité Avant d'aller en Inde, nous avions longtemps ésité à réserver ce centre et pour finir nous avions opté pour un autre dont nous étions moyennement satisfaits sur place. Nous avons donc marché le long de la mer pour grimper jusqu'à l'Agastya et sa réception. Nous avons demandé de pouvoir visiter et de voir une chambre. On a refusé car apparemment les chambres libres étaient dans des cottages où d'autres chambres étaient occupées. Cela aurait dérangé les autres clients. On nous a donc donné une carte postale avec l'adresse du site internet de l'hotel. Dommage. Ma soeur(qui était restée en Europe) depuis des annnées rêve de cet endroit. Nous sommes donc aussi venus pour pouvoir lui raconter à notre retour. Ce que nous avons vu ne nous a pas paru extraordinaire. Les chemins en terre battue doivent être terriblement glissants sous la pluie pendant la mousson.L'ensemble nous paraissait très sombre. Google Translation Having spent two weeks in the vicinity of Chowara to the south of Kovalam, we wanted to visit the Agastya Garden which we regularly receive advertising in Switzerland. Before going to India, we had hesitated for a long time to book this center and in the end we had opted for another with which we were moderately satisfied on site. So we walked along the sea to climb up to Agastya and its reception. We asked to be able to visit and see a room. We refused because apparently the free rooms were in cottages where other rooms were occupied. This would have disturbed other customers. So we were given a postcard with the address of the hotel's website. Damage. My sister (who had stayed in Europe) has been dreaming of this place for years. So we also came so that we could tell him when we returned. What we saw did not seem extraordinary to us. The dirt paths must be terribly slippery in the rain during the monsoon. The whole thing seemed very gloomy to us.
