Down 6kg and, more importantly, my labs improved
This is a medical programme wearing very few resort trappings. I lost weight, but the real result was my doctor's surprise at my blood work three months later.

The Story
Chertala Palm Grove was founded by a physician who spent a decade at a government Ayurveda college hospital before opening this ten-room center. It deliberately looks more like a clinic than a resort — the founder's view is that guests seeking genuine metabolic change are better served by clarity of purpose than spa aesthetics.
Wellness Philosophy
Classical Sthaulya-hara protocols — Udvartana dry massage, calibrated fasting windows, and metabolism-specific herbal formulations — under continuous physician supervision, with weekly measurements tracked against a written plan.
Who This Is For
Guests with a specific, doctor-discussed metabolic or weight goal who want measurable clinical structure over resort ambiance.
Rooms & Suites

A plain, well-ventilated room designed for undisturbed rest between treatments.

The Destination
Kerala Backwaters
The traditional home of Ayurveda — slow backwater mornings, centuries-old treatment protocols, and a kitchen built around what's actually in season.
Best time to visit: October to March, outside the monsoon. Many practitioners consider the monsoon months (June–August) ideal for Panchakarma specifically, since the cooler, humid air is believed to open the body's pores more readily — a handful of retreats specialize in exactly this window.
