Discovering the Ayurvedic Center | Treatments | Ayurvedic Detox |

Ayurveda. An ancient healing art of India and Sri Lanka. Holistic experiences designed for lasting effects. A visit to the Ayurvedic Centre engages all of the senses - warm oil against skin, the scent of local herbs, the spicy flavours of local teas, a glimpse at local culture, the sound of a fragrant steam rising around the body.
Ayurvedic therapists tailor treatments to the individual, with techniques and herbal ingredients specifically chosen to meet each person's body and lifestyle. Amaya Hills offers a team of male and female spa therapists trained and led by our certified Ayurvedic specialist.
The Ayurvedic spa's most popular attraction is the Herbal Body Treatment - a combination of three Ayurvedic treatments: herbal oil body massage, herbal steam and herbal bath. These and other body treatments can be booked individually or enjoyed as part of a Wellness Programme, lasting from 3-21 days.
While Ayurveda is gaining in popularity around the world, Amaya Hills invites you to come and experience Ayurvedic treatments at their source, where they have been practiced for centuries. The Amaya experience is a reflection of Sri Lankan culture. As Ayurvedic treatments are an integral science and art form of Sri Lanka, they are also integral to Amaya. You are invited to discover Ayurvedic healing and relaxation at Amaya Hills.
