Auckland works long weeks and long commutes and has one of the largest Indian communities in the country, so a great many of the patients we plan trips for here are returning to a country they already know. What they usually want is the part that is hard to arrange from this far away: the right centre, a physician who treats their condition regularly, and an honest opinion about whether the programme will help. MyVaidyam reads your reports and gives you that before you commit to anything.
| Travel | Auckland: Singapore, Kuala Lumpur or a Gulf hub; Kerala is one more short flight. |
| Time difference | India is 6.5 hours behind Auckland in winter and 7.5 hours behind in summer. Late-afternoon calls in Auckland are morning in India, so the working day still overlaps. |
| Visa | New Zealand passport holders can apply online for India's e-Ayush Visa, made for Ayurveda treatment; a companion can apply for the e-Ayush Attendant Visa. |
| Typical stay | 14 days (detox / rejuvenation) · 21-28 days (chronic conditions). |
| Best season | October-March (dry, settled weather across South India) or June-August (Kerala's classical monsoon therapy season, which falls in the New Zealand winter). |
| What MyVaidyam does | Centre matching, report review, visa-letter support, pre-arrival planning, and follow-up after you return. |
In India, Ayurveda is a complete clinical programme — a doctor's assessment, a personalised diet, fresh medicines, and Panchakarma therapies given daily in a set sequence.
The physician reviews your progress daily and adjusts therapy, oils and diet as your body responds. You are a patient under supervision, not a guest booking treatments.
Auckland runs on long commutes, long weeks and screens. Two or three weeks in a quiet Kerala setting, with no commute and a fixed routine, gives the treatment room to work.
A two-to-three-week residential programme in India includes accommodation, meals, daily therapies and a doctor's care — often for less than a short private wellness stay closer to home.
Many established Kerala centres run their own pharmacies, so your oils and decoctions are prepared under your doctor's instruction, not shipped from a warehouse.
Classical Ayurveda, delivered by qualified Vaidyas in the country where it has been refined for more than 2,000 years.
Ayurveda works alongside your regular medical care. It is especially sought for long-standing, lifestyle-related problems.
| Programme | Typical duration | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Classical Panchakarma Detox | 14-21 days | Deep cleansing, reset, chronic imbalance |
| Stress & Sleep Recovery | 14 days | Burnout, anxiety, insomnia |
| Pain & Joint Care | 21-28 days | Back, neck, knee and arthritis pain |
| Rasayana (Rejuvenation) | 7-14 days | Energy, immunity, healthy ageing |
| Condition-Specific Treatment | 21-28 days | Skin, gut, metabolic and women's health |

Auckland reaches India through Singapore, Kuala Lumpur or a Gulf hub, and Kerala is one more short flight. Singapore and Kuala Lumpur are the other common routes, and both connect on to South India. Schedules change by season, so check current timetables when you book. We recommend 1-2 rest days before therapy begins.
October-March: dry and pleasant across South India — our most popular season. June-August: the monsoon season, considered ideal for Panchakarma, quieter and often better value.
At least 14 days for detox or rejuvenation; 21-28 days for a chronic condition. We'll always be honest about what a shorter stay can and cannot achieve.
