Nearby Locations You Can Visit

Rishikesh is where the Ganga leaves the Himalayas, and most of what makes this town special sits within a short walk or ride of our school. Between sessions, students often make their way to Vashistha Cave, Kunjapuri Temple, Parmarth Niketan and Bhutnath Temple, or simply settle on the riverbank for the evening Ganga Aarti.

You are free to explore these nearby locations in your own time, on the days that suit you. Many students find that an unhurried morning at a temple or an hour beside the river deepens what they are learning in the Ayurveda and yoga classroom.

I joined the Ayurveda course with almost no background and left feeling completely transformed. The teachers explain every concept patiently and the practical marma sessions were the highlight for me. Rishikesh itself adds so much to the experience.

A genuinely authentic school. The daily routine is well balanced, the food is sattvic and fresh, and the panchakarma therapies were done with real care. I came for the certification and left with a new lifestyle.

The massage course was hands-on from day one. Small batch, so everyone got personal correction from the teachers. The theory on doshas finally made sense to me after years of reading about it.

Beautiful campus, warm staff and very knowledgeable faculty. The yoga philosophy classes were my favourite part. Accommodation was simple and clean, exactly what you want for a retreat like this.

I did the therapy course for my chronic back pain and the improvement was noticeable within the first week. The team builds a plan around you instead of a one-size-fits-all treatment.

Highly recommend Nighantu Ayurveda. The certification is recognised, the syllabus is thorough, and the excursions around Rishikesh made the whole month unforgettable. Thank you to the entire team.
