From November 14 until November 20, 2019, Four Seasons Hotel Moscow will be hosting Dr. Shylesh Subramanya, Director of The Spa & Ayurvedic Retreat at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru with his special Ayurvedic program.

Since earning a Bachelor of Ayurveda, Medicine and Surgery in 2003, Shylesh has been helping others achieve optimum health and wellness. In addition to administering Ayurvedic treatments and life-changing programs such as Panchakarma, he is a keen practitioner and teacher of yoga, Reiki, meditation, AntiGravity yoga and watsu. His goal is not to limit or restrict but to adopt and relate practices to each individual’s lifestyle, allowing his students to implement these new practices at a comfortable pace and to reach their aim step by step.

“‘Health and happiness’ is my motto. It’s what I want to experience and want to help others experience too, naturally and holistically,” says Shylesh. “Ayurveda is not about restriction but about collective knowledge of lifestyle modifications and herbal supplements that can help to cure ailments and support a healthy balanced life. It is a flexible system that can be personalised for each individual and lifestyle.”

In his special program, Shylesh will offer guests several rituals. Guests can start their retreat with a consultation and body type analysis to discover their unique body and mind constitution, work on a personalised diet, and discuss how to build a comfortable and balanced lifestyle. During the consultation guests can also get a chakra analysis.

  • Abhyanga – A classical full body massage with medicated herbal oils, performed by two specialists working simultaneously. It boosts immunity, energises and nourishes the body, and delays the signs of ageing.
  • Shirodhara – one of the Ayurvedic rituals that involves slowly pouring of a steady stream of warm herbal oil onto the “third eye” chakra on the forehead, followed by a gentle scalp massage. Performed in absolute silence, Shirodhara induces a blissful sense of inner stillness. It expands consciousness, relieves insomnia and stress, and deeply nourishes the hair and scalp.
  • Nasya – A ritual used to clear the airways by introducing small amounts of medicated oil into the nostrils. The treatment starts with a head, neck and face massage using herbal oils to stimulate the energy channels and clear any harmful blockages. Nasya is ideal for conditions including sinusitis, migraines, headaches and chronic colds.

Among other rituals of Shylesh’s special program, guests can find poultice massage for reducing body and joint pain, chakra healing massage, private yoga meditation session and a five-hour yoga therapy session.

During the doctor’s visit to Four Seasons Hotel Moscow, Bystro restaurant will offer an Ayurvedic breakfast corner with specials dishes from Shylesh to all guests.
