"I recently admitted my mother-in-law to Agasthya Ayurveda Medical Center for treatment of a C5–C6 disc bulge. She had been struggling with severe pain and numbness along the entire left side of her body, which had worsened over the past two months. After consulting the center online, the doctors recommended an 18-day therapy program. Though we were initially hesitant, we decided to proceed, and I stayed with her for the first three days. From the very first day, I felt reassured by the care and professionalism of the staff. My mother-in-law showed steady improvement throughout the treatment, and by the end of the 18 days, she had recovered nearly 95% from her pain. The doctors assured us that the remaining discomfort would subside with a month of rest. The facilities were excellent — clean rooms, healthy food, and a team of doctors and staff who were compassionate and attentive. Their dedication and holistic approach truly made a difference. I wholeheartedly recommend Agasthya Ayurveda Medical Center to anyone dealing with spine, knee, disc, sciatica, or related problems. Their expertise and care have been life-changing for my family."

"I underwent 17 days of treatment in this Hospital for disc bulge ,severe pain and shoulder pain. From the very first day, the staff welcomed me with warmth and genuine care, creating a peaceful and healing atmosphere.Their hospitality really stood out. The treatment was carefully guided by Dr.T D Bose, Dr. Sreeju Bose, Dr. Nishad, and Dr. Tessy, all of whom showed excellent knowledge, patience, and a positive approach while addressing my concerns. I was diagnosed with Kasheru Sthana Bramsham, and the therapies provided by therapists Teeja, Ganga, and Mini were extremely effective and supportive, helping me gradually rejuvenated in and out. Gradually my back pain and shoulder pain improved . The entire team works with compassion, dedication, and professionalism, proving that they truly heal with care. I felt feeling lighter, relieved, and highly satisfied, and I would definitely recommend this hospital to anyone seeking effective Ayurvedic treatment in a peaceful environment with compassionate services."

"I was treated at Agasthya Ayurvedic center for acute back pain following Inter Vertebral Disc Prolapse about 6 years back. I was admitted for 21 days and was given various Ayurvedic treatment procedures. Recovery was slow unlike other medical treatment but I was completely alright by about 6 months. I never had to look back after that. Thanks to Dr. Bose and team for their excellent ,dedicated work. I would not hesitate to recommend this center for others with this kind of medical problem at any time."

"It was a wonderful and rejuvenating experience at Agasthya Ayurvedic Medical centre, Ezhupunna during my stay and Treatment . A team of Doctors under Dr. Bose and staff members are doing wonders in ayurveda treatment there. It was really a homely atmosphere, a home away from home. Even though my treatment was for 18 days, I stayed back for 21 days, to be with my friends some more days there. Everybody in the hospital are friendly, loving and service oriented. Now my 18 days treatment is over and I am fully recovered from pain and stiffness. I am able to walk a long distance also. I was admitted in Agasthya Ayurvedic Medical Centre due to pain and stiffness in the left leg .As per the Ortho Surgeon, I was having Vertibral disc prolapse in L3. I have been suffering for the same continuously for two months, consulting allopathy doctors. After my check up by the chief Physician Dr.T.D.Bose, I was advised to under go 18 days' treatment there. The treatment in Agasthya is really a wonderful process; very systematic and in a well planned way. It includes, Oil massage and steam bath, Oil Dhara and finally Njavara kizhi. In addition to this, seperate ayurvedic medicines were also given. The doctors in the hospital Dr.T D Bose,the Chief physician, Dr.Sreedev and Dr.Mrs.Sreeju Bose are well experienced in their profession, and very dedicated in their service. So also their technical staff in massage and kizhi section like Mr.Sivan, Mr.Remesan, Mr. Bijeesh , Mr.Rajumon, Mr.Justine and Mr. Maniyappan in the male massage section. These people are also very experienced in their profession . There is seperate treatment section for ladies also, done by lady experts. In the office also a group of jovial, smart , energetic and service oriented youths are posted to attend all the patient/customer requirements. It will be an incomplete note, if I don't mention some of the few gentlemen in the office, like Mr.Vibheesh, Mr.Amosh and Mr.Arun. Rooms and surroundings are kept neet and cleen always by the cleaning staff. Brakefast and lunch are Kerala style as it is related to ayurveda, I feel. But for dinner it is chappatti and vegetable kurma and egg curry once in a week. I really enjoyed the food. I would suggest Agasthya Ayurvedic Medical Centre for those who are suffering from vertibral problems, arthritis, spondylosis, leg related problems etc. Before going for an operation you can definitely approach this centre . I am sure that you can avoid the operation and it's consequences. Thank you very much Agasthya family , Wish you all the best. P K Raju."

"I took 21 days of treatment in this hospital for my back pain due to disc bulge. My 21-day stay was truly transformative. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warmth and care, making me feel at home in a serene and healing environment. The doctors were highly knowledgeable, taking the time to understand my health concerns in detail. The food was a highlight—delicious, balanced, and thoughtfully prepared according to Ayurvedic principles. After three weeks, I felt rejuvenated—both physically and mentally. My back pain and shoulder pain improved significantly, and I left feeling lighter, more energized, and at peace. The entire team, from the doctors to the housekeeping staff, worked in harmony to ensure my stay was comfortable and fruitful. I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone seeking authentic Ayurvedic care in a nurturing environment. This experience has not only improved my health but also given me tools to maintain wellness for the long term"

"I was suffering from severe lower back pain with a shooting pain to my left leg and was diagnosed with dic prolapses in lower back L4, L5 discs. I live in Finland and doctors then prescribed me a lot of painkillers and suggested stretching exercises as the condition was not deemed bad enough to be operated immediately. Considering my pain gradually become worse and hearing extremely good reviews about Agasthya medical centre, I decided to give it a try. I was in Agasthya for a 17-days treatment (they have different treatment lengths depending on the severity of the condition). This included massages in the morning and medicines few times during the day. The staff was really friendly and the food provided was of really high quality. The hospital itself is rather remotely located; only a few minutes walk to the beautiful paddy fields of Kerala. The internet connection was poor (maybe it's better these days). In hindsight, it was indeed a positive aspect. I spent most of my time reading after the morning massage and did long walks in the evening. After these 17 days, pain in my left leg disappeard almost immediately. Over the next few months the lower back stiffness also improved considerably. Year from the treatment, I started playing football again. Life was finally normal. Although, I do have a stiff lower back and hamstrings these days, possibly due to the history of herniated discs and long hours of sitting at work, simple stretching helps relive it. Over all, I highly recommend Agasthya ayurvedic medical centre. I had my concerns of the science behind this ancient, unconventional treatment methodology at the beginning. Considering that my condition only improved, I guess I have to accept that the doctors and the staff in Agasthya really do know what they are doing."

"I was admitted here for 18 days and underwent treatment for disc bulge. After treatment my pain and numbness got reduced. Treatment was good. Staffs are also good. I will recommend Agasthya Ayurvedic Medical Centre if you have any disc issues. Thanks to Dr. Bose and other doctors and staff."

"I'm 63 years old, and I have a long history of slip discs. 26 years ago, when I had severe back pain, I did my treatment under Dr. Bose and his team. Recently, when my back pain returned slowly and started to give me sciatic pain, after much research, I decided to get treatment from Agasthya. Knowing Dr. Bose and his team gave me confidence. I did 21 days of treatment while staying there. It was a really amazing and rejuvenating experience with Agasthya. Dr. T.D. Bos and Dr. Sreedev were really supportive and were always available to address any doubts. My wife, who was my bystander, also got a 10-day treatment for her cervical spondylitis and leg pain. The root cause of her leg pain in the late nights was also diagnosed by them. Dr. Sreeja helped her and gave instructions that should be adapted to her lifestyle. The hospital management and the faculties were very friendly and helpful. I never felt like I was away from home. The food and atmosphere of the treatment centre were really good. I would recommend Agastya to anyone who is suffering from any sort of orthopaedic or muscular condition."

"For the past five years, I have been enduring the agony of a herniated disk. Seeking relief from the excruciating back pain, I sought consultation and treatment at the Agasthya Ayurvedic Medical Centre. After undergoing a seventeen-day treatment, I am now free from the burden of my back pain. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Bose, the other doctors, the treatment staff, and the supporting staff for their exceptional care. This center is truly a sanctuary of healing, offering a comfortable stay, delectable food, and a team of service-oriented individuals. I express my sincere thanks to all those involved in providing this remarkable healing service to those afflicted with various ailments. May God bless you all for your unwavering dedication."

"I have had this disc Bulge in L4, L5 & S1, I have consulted many Hospitals in Delhi where I live, Allopathy- They all told me it would need a Disc Replacement surgery to fix it and that too temporary. It may only last for 4-6 years. I also can't naulted ayurveda in Delhi with medicines and oils to. Apply, I did that too it didn't do much good for me.. Until I got referred by one of my friend in Kerala, to visit Agasthya Ayurvedic medical centre. Where I spoke to Dr Sreedev, what a fantastic person is he, very calm, friendly and A very good doctor. Whom I called and conaulted and fixed my treatment schedule in Kerala for 18 days. That process of Treatment was quite rejuvenating and little relaxing. In 18 days I was able to walk, air and Even work without pain. Post treatmwmt there is a Bed rest for 2 months post which you would be perfectly alright. As if there was no disc problems you ever had. The Hospital staffs specially Arun, Vibheesh, Amosh, Kannan, Prakashan, Ramesh, Avinash, and Housekeeping evry body was good. Also thr chief doctor Dr. Bose and Mrs Bose they were fabulous.. One thing you may find it difficult if you coming from North India is the food. I suggest carry an induction cooker to cook Rice of your choice. I was okay as I am a malayali, but my wise and mother innlaw they are punjabis and they could stand the rice.. Rest all is good. The Treatment is authentic and Feela like home there, I give 5 stars*****"

"(Translated by Google) I came here for treatment and I am leaving feeling very comfortable in my body and mind. Allopathic doctors said it was a bulging disc, they said I would have to have an operation and that I would fall down. But today I am sitting comfortably. The good behavior of the doctor and staff here also makes us happy. Thanks to Agastya hospital.
