FOUR SEASONS RESORT SAYAN Authentic ayurvedic is just one of the treatments
to be experienced here. When I had a treatment recently, my brain turned
to jelly in under five minutes – a sure sign that something is
working well. Two hours later I emerged, all signs of stress dissolved
and the world looked wonderfully rosy. Highly recommended.
