What our guests say  

 

This is a conversation we had with some of our guests during their Panchakarma course here.

In cheerful voices they described their experiences.

Please tell us how you heard about Maharishi Ayurveda?


Erika Esche:

I have been practising Yoga for 15 years and this led me to Ayurveda. I heard about the Clinic in Bad Ems through television and newspapers. This is my fourth visit here.

Anny Stier:

My daughter introduced me to Ayurveda. I was completely unbalanced and not at all well. I had information about Bad Ems sent to me. Quite by chance a friend of mine was also interested in Panchakarma and we decided to come here together.

Gabriele Mammitzsch:

I have always been interested in alternative medicine and had read about Ayurveda. I have wanted to take a course of treatment for years because I have been under immense pressure. I did not want to travel far and wanted to be in a nice area. So I decided on Bad Ems and have been here for four days.

Have you already had treatment?

Gabriele Mammitzsch:

Yes, my first treatment was Abhyanga. It was very nice.

Erika Esche
:

The treatments are very pleasant. At first I did not like the days taking ghee. But now the massages have started I feel really well. I feel lighter and have more energy. My body and soul feel lighter.

 

Which treatments did you like the most?


Erika Esche:

The whole body massage with flowing oil. Today I had Udvarthana and Svedana and I feel completely well and relaxed.

"There is no feeling of being rushed. It is always peaceful during the treatments and you are nicely spoken to."

Do you feel well treated in Bad Ems?

Anny Stier:

I enjoyed the consultation with the doctor. Very personal and attentive. Although I have only been here a few days, I really feel at home. Even though the hotel is very large I feel very safe. You are not a number here. The ladies treat me very well.


Erika Esche:

I have to say that even on the first day I arrived here, I could feel the relaxed atmosphere and I really enjoyed it. Even now it is the same. The Panchakarma therapists are really nice and Dr. Pirc is very open-minded and takes plenty of time with you.

Gabriele Mammitzsch
:

My doctor at home was very pleased that I decided to come here. He always takes time with a consultation, but here it is altogether different. There is no feeling of being rushed. It is always peaceful during the treatments and you are nicely spoken to.

What is also nice is that it is always possible to speak with a doctor. Even if you don't take the possibility, it is always good to know it is available when needed. What really impressed me at my first treatment was that I went down to the treatment room and two extremely nice ladies with beautiful smiling faces were there to greet me. That was just wonderful and the atmosphere was so peaceful. That is so pleasant. And there are so many little things that the assistants think about. They find my card even quicker than I can give them my name. It is obvious that they enjoy their work.


How do you find the vegetarian food?


Anny Stier:

The food has been a real surprise for me. You can tell it is prepared with much love and is varied, fresh and extremely delicious. It is really amazing. It is healthy to feel full and be in such a good mood after a meal.

 
Gabriele Mammitzsch
:

At home I eat a lot of fruit and try to have a healthy diet. But here you are constantly reminded to enjoy your meal, take time eating and be aware of your food. It helps that the food is varied, is wonderful to look at, like a small picture and is lovingly served.


Ladies, thank you for talking to us.
