We, Narda and Luc, have personally experienced how life-changing Ayurveda treatment can be. Our journey began when we traveled to India and underwent Ayurvedic therapies that profoundly improved our health and well-being. The results were so remarkable that it felt like a new chapter in our lives. Inspired by this transformative experience, we knew we wanted to share this gift with others.
However, traveling to India isn’t always possible for everyone. That’s why we decided to bring the wisdom and healing of Ayurveda to Spain, offering you the opportunity to experience these life-enhancing treatments without the need to travel to India.
When we acquired Torres de Selma and began transforming it into an eco-wellness resort, we realized this was the perfect opportunity to make our dream a reality. Through fate, we were fortunate to connect with incredible healers and therapists from India, including Guru Yogi Shivan, founder of the Indimasi Healing Village in Kerala. His kindness, wisdom, and experience have been a true source of inspiration in helping us bring this vision to life. Along with Guruji, we have also met other gifted Ayurvedic practitioners who will bring their expertise to our center. One of them will be the first to join us as a certified and experienced therapist from India, once the final permits and paperwork are completed.
We are thrilled to share with you the ancient knowledge of Ayurveda, and to help you experience its healing benefits right here at Torres de Selma.
Ayurveda, which originated in India over 5,000 years ago, is a natural system of medicine focused on preventive healthcare. The word “Ayurveda” comes from the Sanskrit words ayur (life) and veda (knowledge), meaning “the science of life.” Ayurveda is based on the idea that health is the result of harmony between body, mind, spirit, and the environment. When this balance is disrupted, disease and imbalance occur. Ayurvedic treatments aim to restore this equilibrium through personalized therapies, which often include lifestyle changes, herbal remedies, massage, yoga, and meditation.
The foundation of Ayurvedic medicine lies in the concepts of universal interconnectedness, the body’s constitution (prakriti), and life forces (doshas). Ayurvedic treatment often begins with an internal purification process, followed by a special diet, herbal remedies, massage therapy, and mind-body practices designed to detoxify the body and promote overall wellness. The goal is not only to treat symptoms, but also to enhance resilience, reduce stress, and bring harmony to every aspect of life.
In India, Ayurveda is recognized as a legitimate medical system, on par with Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, naturopathy, and homeopathy. It is widely used both as a standalone treatment and as a complementary therapy alongside conventional medical care. All of our Ayurvedic therapists at Torres de Selma are certified in the Indian system and have undergone extensive, state-recognized training.

At Torres de Selma, we offer four different Ayurveda treatment packages, each designed to address specific health needs and goals. These programs range in duration from 3 to 12 days, and to ensure that every guest receives personalized attention, we limit the number of participants in each program.
For those seeking the most comprehensive experience, we highly recommend our 12-day package. This will provide you with the full benefits of Ayurveda, allowing enough time for deep healing and transformation. For guests who have completed the 12-day program, our 3- or 5-day packages make excellent follow-up treatments to maintain your progress or refresh your wellness journey.
If you’re new to Ayurveda and unsure whether it’s the right choice for you, we invite you to join our Relaxation Weekend program. This short stay will give you a taste of Ayurvedic healing, allowing you to experience its gentle, restorative effects before committing to a longer treatment.
We look forward to welcoming you to Torres de Selma and offering you the opportunity to experience the ancient wisdom and profound healing of Ayurveda, right here in the heart of Spain.
Body Posture Correction treatment is a very powerful treatment for the physical body. The therapist will manually correct the posture due to manipulations of the skeleton. Pain due to misalignment of, for example, vertebrae, will be corrected. Pain relief can be felt immediately, flexibility gain is instant and energy can start flowing which results in a more energetic feeling of well-being. Together with the therapist, it is determined how many BPC treatments are needed to achieve the desired result.
Marma Points Therapy; We have 108 marma points and there are 27.000 channels of circulating life force, known as nadis, which flow into the physical body. The points at which Prana exits the nadis and enters the physical body are known as marma points. These points are found in tendons, muscles, joints and other tissue. When Prana can flow freely from the nadis into the marma points, there is health. When the flow is impaired, we feel tired, exhausted, stressed, low immunity, imbalances in body systems, sleeplessness…The therapist checks the marma points and when necessary will, with gentle touch, be able to open up the marma points and energy can flow freely again.
Elements of Panchakarma:
Dosha: The ancient health science of Ayurveda is built around the five elements of ether, air, fire, water, and earth. The unique combination of these elements come together to make up the doshas, or constitutions—vata, pitta, and kapha. Each dosha has a number of corresponding qualities that are expressed in the physical, emotional, and mental aspects of one’s being. All of us have some aspects of each dosha, but one or two doshas tend to dominate. During your stay, the therapist will work with you to identify your most prominent dosha. Balance is also the key word here. If your doshas are in balance, you will experience peace and well-being. If there is an imbalance, you can feel stress, reduced digestion, emotions that flare up and often a loss of energy. During your stay you will learn how to balance your doshas with nutrition, yoga, meditation and treatments.
Pooja is a Hindu ceremony. Indians perform Pooja as a loving offering of light, flowers, water, and food to their Gods and Goddess to grant their blessings in the course of life’s journey. At the end of your journey with us, we offer you a Pooja. This powerful ceremony ensures integration and provides blessings for the journey ahead.
The main aim of this programme is to correct problems related to posture. Examples include pain in the neck and shoulders, such as frozen shoulder, or pain in the lower back. Many people suffer from these kinds of problems due to sedentary work at a desk and behind a computer or using mobile phones. Other examples are problems in the knees, thumbs or hips.
The correction of posture aligns the body structures and therefore closer to their original positions, improving the physical function of the body and reducing pain.
The treatments are performed by a therapist who is specialised and highly experienced in this.
On a physical level, in addition to postural corrections, this 12-day programme hydrates, reduces inflammation, improves hormonal balance and relieves pain. It revitalises organs, balances the doshas and digestion, cleanses by removing toxins and relaxes muscles. It also has beneficial effects on the mind and soul.
