Find Relief & Renewal at Our 5-day Ayurvedic Pain Management Retreat
With approximately one in five adults over 45 in Australia living with chronic and persistent pain (AIHW), Ayurveda Village knows the profound impact pain can have on your life. Being in constant pain can disrupt mobility, hinder work and relationships, affect income, and diminish independence, leaving you feeling anxious and uncertain about the future. Painkillers could just temporarily mask the pain but they are needed at times. However if the root cause is not addressed, the pain would keep coming back. Understanding the root cause of the pain and removal of that cause is the first step in Ayurvedic pain management. So we invite you to try a comprehensive, holistic approach to pain management, drawing from the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda.
Transformative Ayurvedic Pain Management Retreat
Our 5-day Pain Management Retreat is designed to help detoxify your body, reduce pain and inflammation, and provide you with an Ayurvedic lifestyle plan that details diet, lifestyle and self-care routines to help create a healthier, happier you.
The retreat includes daily consultations with an Ayurvedic Doctor, daily detox massages and custom Ayurvedic treatments designed to address the root cause of your pain, delicious custom meals, yoga, meditation and educational workshops to help you start the journey to reclaim your health & wellbeing.

Why Ayurvedic Pain Management?
Ayurveda goes beyond just pain relief which temporarily masks your symptoms, and seeks to find the root cause of pain. Ayurveda understands that everyone is unique and there is no one size fits all, which is why we create a custom treatment, diet and lifestyle plan to suit your unique healing goals.
Ayurveda addresses physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing, and offers a comprehensive journey back to health to help you transcend the limitations of your condition and step into a future filled with hope, healing and transformation.
Detoxification & Pain Management
Detoxification is one of the foundational principles in Ayurveda, and it plays a significant role in pain relief by helping to eliminate toxins that cause inflammation and discomfort in the body. Ayurveda provides custom detox treatments like Abhyanga massage, steam, enemas and herbal formulas. These aid in ridding the body of harmful substances, help optimise liver and kidney function, enhance pain management and promote overall health and wellbeing.
Pain Management Through Diet
Reducing inflammation is a key strategy for pain management. When tissues are inflamed, they release chemicals that stimulate nerve endings and increase pain sensitivity. Ayurveda will create a custom diet and lifestyle plan that emphasises anti-inflammatory foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, to help reduce inflammation and chronic pain conditions such as arthritis or muscle soreness.
Non-Pharmacological Pain Relief – Natural Herbal Formulations
Ayurvedic herbal formulations have been used for centuries to provide natural pain relief. Ayurveda uses herbal blends known for their potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic and adaptogenic properties, which can soothe and relieve pain, manage stress and reduce pain perception naturally. Ayurveda Village only uses organic, TGA approved herbs that work in harmony with your existing medication.

Pain Management Retreat – Ayurvedic Treatment Program
Pre-Retreat Ayurvedic Consultation
Your pain management retreat will start with an initial consultation with one of our experienced Ayurvedic doctors. We ask that all participants attend an initial consultation (either in person or online or over the phone) at least one week before the retreat so we can create a fully personalised pain program complete with customised food, Ayurvedic treatments and a lifestyle plan.
All our doctors and therapists are qualified, accredited practitioners offering authentic, classical Ayurveda treatments. During the consultation, the doctor will ask you a series of questions about your health and lifestyle and then examine your tongue and check your pulse to help determine your dosha (constitution) type. We are all made up of a mix of the three doshas (Pitta, Vata and Kapha), but one will often dominate, and this will determine the best treatment program and herbal formulations to suit your unique situation.
Follow-up Consultations With The Ayurvedic Doctor
To ensure fully personalised service and closely monitor your progress, our Ayurvedic Doctors will consult with you daily to provide ongoing support and adjustments to your treatment plan as required.
Abhyanga Massage
Our signature Abhyanga massage is designed to detoxify and renew the body. This blissful massage uses warm herbal oils and focuses on the acupressure points (marma) to increase circulation, release energetic blockages, stimulate the lymphatic system (immunity), enhance digestive efficiency and create a beautiful sense of nurturing and wellbeing.
Pinda Sweda
Pinda Sweda is a targeted massage involving the application of heated boluses (bundles) filled with herbal concoctions that are gently massaged into the joints or specific parts of the body. The heat combined with the custom herbal formulation helps to soothe and relieve muscle and joint pain and nourish and rejuvenate the skin and tissues.
Oil & Herbal Enemas (Optional Extra)
Oil and herbal enemas can help detoxify the body and relieve pain and discomfort caused by digestive issues. Enemas cleanse the colon by flushing out accumulated fecal matter, toxins and other waste products to improve digestive function and help soothe irritated or inflamed tissue.
