I'm on a pilgrimage to India to find out if it is possible for all my suffering (kg / fluctuating but generally high blood pressure / high cholesterol and probably more) are available in two weeks.
I've heard of Ayurvedic medicine and the excellent results that some people have experienced, so I'm here at Sagara Beach Resort, Kovalam in Kerala, my conversation with the doctor is waiting.

The resort is charming, though she herself is a work in progress. Apparently itIt all started with a few rooms and then the owner has built a little 'more, and so on, until it's here now, almost done! In fact, he has just completed a large swimming pool and all that remains is the tile, which should be completed during our stay. Workers (including workers in reality, because I do not think there is something like a female construction worker in India) are everywhere and it seems to work 24 hours shifts. They run around with towels wrapped intheir heads in baskets correspond to the top of the gravel driveway to the front, which is under construction. The work is cheap and expensive machinery, it is clear that this is the project more economical. But it is not easy in the midday sun!
We often see the owner of the place, a charming man, funny and tender who lives nearby and the staff tell me humble enough to remove any work that needs to be done. If a girl is sick, he starts happy, alwaysRoom ready itself for new arrivals. Similarly, he is happy to act as waiters and kitchen staff at the hotel restaurant. He is a very impressive man, who certainly deserves his success.
We have a beautiful suite with large bedroom, bathroom, where, living / dining room and balcony. Also included is a TV with cable connection, it is only as good as my understanding of Malayalum (local language) is equal to zero. We have a terrifying vision of Kovalam Beachand the lighthouse stands proud.
The second day I had my first appointment with the Ayurvedic doctor (Dr. Jayahari). He is young and very friendly, and absolutely passionate about Ayurveda. He spends a considerable amount of time, draw diagrams on a sheet of paper, explains the history of Ayurvedic medicine for us.
Immediately wins my heart - I asked for the body processes, which have long expired. I ask him how old I think and he says, an age20 years younger than I am. How good? If only my friends (and enemies) had listened to it! Damn!
He asks me of my dreams and I prefer the time. This is to get my body type. Can be one of three ways or a combination of the three. Are these types of doshas vata, pitta and kapha. They are Vata / Kapha dosha. Since Kapha is fat, I have too much kapha - to put it bluntly.
Weighs on me and takes my blood pressure - 130 over something orothers and then I feel my pulse (on my wrist). He told me that my cholesterol is increased by too much oil in my body and that his first plan of attack will be a foot massage. This will be the first step to losing a lot of weight!
He tells me that the next day will have a 14 day treatment plan for me.
Hmm, a foot massage ... how beautiful! This may not be so bad. I am totally fascinated by a foot massage that lifts the weight.
I go for my walk to 02:00Massage. I have a problem with massage massage touch, because some so strong that almost go through the roof, and mix with all the pressure they have. But a massage food should be quite bearable and I like the way my feet feel like it.
At the appointed time are shown in the treatment room. My first thought is I have a live episode of "Wire in the Blood." Hanging from the ceiling of the tiled room is a rope. I have visions of hanging, but I blink and lookaround me. There is also a massage table with a pot on a brass tripod.
The masseuse comes and asks me to take off all my clothes. All? Yes, all. Horror!
Well, because I have to be naked to get a foot massage? I knew several activities in this area. The rope is a sure sign.
Well, I tell the world about this experience, the most perverse, the more I expect that everyone loves to hear, so obedient hall clock,Sitting on a small stool and crossing his legs.
The treatment begins with a scalp massage. He anointed my head and shoulders, kneading and beating for five minutes. I am totally lulled into a state of false security.
Then it asks me to a gym is located under the mattress that lies rope. I lie on my stomach and began to massage (most powerful), my back and arms. But what has happened, my foot massage?
I look around and you're hanging on the ropeon the one hand and balancing on the wall with the other, as they have sent my body with a foot massage. And what a performance that has feet! I have to ask them to tone it down. He massaged from top to bottom, from back to front. I am totally covered with yellow thick oil. So that is a foot massage!
Now she asked me lying on the massage table. It is not simply negotiating room if fat, but are somehow managing. It 'too hard to shoot on the bed without climbingover the edge like a rocket greased up. Then he gives me a long massage - this time by hand.
They happily told me that when I melt the fat from my treatment every day.
This is the way to move without lifting a finger of grease! Oops, I meant without lifting a finger to my! I have often wondered whether it is possible to lose weight through massage. Seems like a very long and vigorous massage - every day of the week! But who can afford to usuallya luxury?
In any case, treatment is not over yet. Does the brass plate on the support and fill it with warm medicated oil. My head is placed under the pot and the oil slowly dripping through a hole in the bottom of the pot. This is Shirodhara - a treatment in the notice, the third eye. She moved around the pot and the oil drips into a stream on my forehead for 20 minutes. What bliss!
The whole exercise lasts two hours and as you can imagine, I amcompletely soaked in oil.
Meanwhile, I was on a rather worrying problem I see coming. Namely, that oily as they are now, I slip into my nice red caftan, when I returned to my room. But it opens my caftan in a bag and hands me a green hospital gown. She tells me to bring back and forth for the course of my treatment. Thank God
The therapist tells me to wait until an hour before showering, and why my hair is dripping with thickOil, I have to wash my hair. This has become a daily ritual. Personally I find the shampoo every day to be a bit 'boring for me to find out clock twice to make sure that there is no free shampoo or conditioner in the bathroom. Fortunately, for once in our lives we actually have with us a couple bottles of hotels we have been saved from previous holidays, but we are finding that there is no hotel (in our price range) in the whole of Kerala, which gives hair products. Biju (our driver)Later we are told that this is because only the people of Kerala coconut oil in your hair. (But that would clean the hair, I wonder?)
I was wondering if the same treatment that my mother would take me. However, it has a foot massage. Perhaps it is for fatties. The doctor then told us that because of my mother's advanced age (80) thought it was too hard for them.
