Transform Your Relationship With Food & Discover a More Sustainable Approach to Weight Loss
It is estimated that around 67% of Australian adults are struggling with their weight (AIHW), being either overweight or obese. So, if you are frustrated with the whole weight loss process, have tried multiple diets with limited success and find weight loss a constant uphill battle then you are not alone.
Why Choose Ayurvedic Weight Loss?
At Ayurveda Village, we understand that the constant cycle of dieting, exercising and not seeing lasting results can eat away at your self-confidence and leave you feeling disheartened and hopeless. So, we invite you to try a more natural and holistic approach to weight loss which works in harmony with your body.
Going Beyond Diet & Excercise
Ayurveda is based on ancient wisdom and takes a holistic approach to health and wellbeing. Most modern diets and weight loss programs do not address the root causes of weight gain and rely heavily on willpower and determination – which is why they fail to produce lasting results.
Ayurveda addresses the root causes of weight gain and the mental/emotional aspects of weight loss. It goes beyond the physical to treat the mind, body and spirit to cultivate a sense of wellbeing that radiates from within and allows lasting transformation.
Holistic Weight Loss Without Extreme Diets or Rigorous Gym Workouts
With a holistic approach to weight loss, there’s no need to flog your body in the gym or follow extreme diets. Ayurveda will show you how to understand and work with your unique body type, identify what foods and nutrients work best for your constitution and provides treatment and lifestyle guidance on how to detox the body, shed the pounds and create a healthier, happier you!
Transformative Ayurvedic Weight Loss Retreat & Program
Our 30-day weight loss program includes an initial consultation with an Ayurvedic Doctor and a 5-day weight loss retreat with custom meals, daily detox massages and personalised Ayurvedic treatments. This is then followed by a 25-day personalised diet and lifestyle plan with expert guidance and support throughout, so you can experience sustainable weight loss and reclaim your confidence and vitality.

Ayurveda Village’s 30 Day-Weight Loss Program & Retreat Overview
Pre-Program Ayurvedic Consultation
Our 30-day weight loss program starts 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 weight loss program complete with customised food, Ayurvedic treatments and a lifestyle plan.
Find out more about the Ayurvedic Consultation & Lifestyle plan
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 unique 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 your treatment, food and lifestyle plan.
Your Ayurvedic treatment and lifestyle plan details your unique dosha (constitution type), specific treatments to be given during the retreat, recommended daily routines, recommended additional supplements and self-care practices along with a detailed meal plan for the remainder of the 30 day program. It also provides food and lifestyle recommendations so you can continue to maintain your weight loss journey long after the program is complete.
5-Day Weight Loss Retreat
To kickstart your weight loss, detox and purify the body, the first 5 days of the 30-day weight loss program are spent on retreat here in the serene environment at the Ayurveda Village. Your comprehensive weight loss retreat program includes the following daily Ayurvedic treatments with custom herbal formulations.
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.
Udwartana
Udwartana is a specialised Ayurvedic treatment that massages dry herbal powder into the skin against the direction of the hair. The rapid upward strokes of the massage and dry herbal powders create heat in the body and help to reduce cellulite and excess fat accumulated under the skin, stimulate fat metabolism, promote detoxification and balance out Kapha dominant doshas.
Face Marma Massage
Our facial marma massage is a gentle treatment that helps to dissolve stress, tension and headaches. Warm herbal oils are tenderly massaged into the skin and a light touch is used to stimulate specific energy points (marma) in the face. The therapeutic oil, combined with gentle manipulation of the marma (acupressure) points, helps to release energetic and emotional blockages, stimulate the lymph nodes (immunity) and increase blood flow whilst nourishing and hydrating the skin.
Ayurvedic Steam Bath
Enjoy our relaxing Ayurvedic steam bath which circulates steam around the body below the head. Steam induces sweat and opens the pores, allowing herbal preparations to deeply penetrate the skin and be absorbed directly into the bloodstream and tissues for maximum detoxification, whilst helping to relieve muscle tension, stiffness and joint pain.
Nasaya
Nasaya involves introducing herbal oils or preparations into the nostrils to help eliminate toxins. It is great for clearing the nasal passages, improving respiratory health and helping balance the doshas, particularly excess Kapha which is associated with weight gain and sluggish metabolism.
Oil & Herbal Enemas (Optional Extra)
Stress and hormonal imbalances can cause abnormal weight gain and digestive issues such as bloating, constipation and abdominal pain. Oil and herbal enemas can help to cleanse the colon by flushing out accumulated fecal matter, toxins and other waste products to improve digestive function. Oil and herbal enemas can also help soothe irritated or inflamed tissues, promote fat metabolism and hydrate and lubricate the colon making it easier to eliminate waste.
Ayurvedic Cooking Lessons
Our Ayurveda Cooking Lessons are designed to equip you with the skills and knowledge needed to cook delicious and nutritious Ayurvedic meals throughout the weight loss program and beyond. You’ll learn about the healing properties of spices, different types of foods (Sattvic, Tamasic and Rajasic) and how to combine and adapt recipes to promote digestion, balance your doshas and optimise metabolism for sustainable weight loss. No cooking lesson is complete without hands-on experience so you will prepare and cook a variety of different ayurvedic spice mixes, meals and infusions to nourish your body.
Accommodation, Meals, Drinks & Specified Treatments
The retreat element of the weight loss plan includes 5 nights of accommodation at the Ayurveda Village in a single or twin room, daily breakfast, morning tea, lunch and dinner, plus unlimited tea and herbal infusions. All treatments mentioned above are included, with the exception of enemas. Enema and other additional treatments may be recommended by our doctors, these are optional and incur additional fees. Pricing for the retreat will include a full cost breakdown of all the included treatments and any optional extras or supplements.
25-Day Meal & Lifestyle Plan
Receive a comprehensive meal and lifestyle plan tailored to your unique needs and goals, guiding you through each day following the retreat. Your guide includes detailed meal plans, shopping lists, practical tips and routines to create habits to support your weight loss journey and promote long-term wellness.
