WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Healthy body, Tranquil Mind

Therefore, along with a calm, stable mind, a fit and healthy body is essential – and this is what Shreyas strives to offer to all its guests.

Weight Management Packages at Shreyas include 14 and 21-night programs where one can reduce 7-8 pounds and 10-12 pounds respectively in a healthy manner, which can be maintained in the long run, and consist of actual fat loss along with an increase in muscle mass and metabolic rate. We achieve this by a combination of:

•  Customized low-calorie, balanced diet based on scientific indices such as BMI, Broca's Index, etc
•  A set of time tested traditional Ayurvedic treatments,
•  Yoga practices that include Asana, Pranayama, Kriyas, Yoga Nidra & Meditation and
•  Aerobic activities like brisk walks, swimming and gymnasium workouts.

• COUNSELING: Individual Counseling is essential to determine realistic goals of the guests & to initiate a dietary regimen that is appropriate for their food habits & lifestyle. Although motivation has to be intrinsic, our Wellness Consultant can be of help towards initiating this motivation & subsequently provide encouragement & guidance at frequent follow up visits. Periodic consultations with our experienced Ayurvedic doctor help in identifying the body types (Doshas), oils & massages best suited, which helps in determining a specific line of treatment for better results.
• YOGA: Yogic processes redirect our energy towrads healthy & creative outlets. They include physical postures, breathing & cleansing processes, meditation & relaxation techniques like yoga nidra. These processes tone the body, remove blockages and help in harmonizing the inner mechanisms of the body.
• HEALTHY CUISINE: After a detailed wellness consultation with the guest, a negative energy balance plan is made, which ensures the calorie intake is less than the ideal recommended daily allowance, and is low in carbohydrates and fats. Care is taken to provide a balanced diet, which is easy to follow on long term.
• SLIMMING AYURVEDIC THERAPIES: According to Ayurveda some of the therapies given for a specific period not only help to mobilize the excessive adipose tissue but detoxify the system. Medicated oils, which have weight loss properties are used during these treatments to enhance the weight loss. The therapies include:

  1. Synchronized Abhyanga

     This massage is done with warm cloth bags filled with herbal powder. This helps to mobilize the fat in our body.
