Wellness
6 days of traditional Ayurvedic therapies — herbal oil massage, Shirodhara, steam treatments, and personalized dietary consultation. SASANE's wellness facilitators understand restoration as necessity, not luxury. They trained in classical Ayurvedic practice alongside their rehabilitation, combining ancient Nepali healing traditions with professional hospitality skills. This programme supports SASANE's vision that survivors should lead premium experiences, not just survive — and that guests deserve depth, not performance.

What to Expect

Therapeutic wellness treatments at a Himalayan meditation retreat in Nepal

Therapeutic treatments

Each treatment is selected according to your personal constitution (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha dosha). Shirodhara — the steady stream of warm oil across the forehead — is profoundly calming.
Ayurvedic nutrition and herbal remedies prepared at a Nepal wellness retreat

Seasonal nourishment

Every meal is designed by an Ayurvedic chef to balance your dosha — seasonal vegetables, healing spices, and preparation methods that maximise nutrient absorption. Expect vibrant colours, complex flavours, and portions that leave you satisfied without heaviness.
Morning yoga

Morning yoga

Gentle morning yoga sessions take place on an open terrace with mountain views. Classes are small (maximum 6), personalised, and designed to complement your Ayurvedic treatments — not to exhaust you.

Guided by SASANE women

Your SASANE guides understand restoration as necessity, not luxury. Ayurvedic treatments are administered by qualified local practitioners, while your guide's warmth and lived wisdom transform the experience into something personal.

Restoration Is What We Do

Ayurveda means 'knowledge of life.' SASANE's work is the knowledge of second life — taking what was broken and making it whole. Your guides understand restoration not as luxury but as necessity — because they have lived it. The Sustainable Hospitality Alliance named SASANE the World's Leading Sustainable Female Empowerment Initiative. Read more in our blog
