Your stress should begin to dissolve as soon as you enter any of our resorts in Uttarakhand. How can it not? The crisp mountain air, the bluest skies you’ve ever seen, and the lush rolling hills and valleys are an effective stress relief combo. However, if you’re still carrying some stubborn stress in your back and shoulders, we suggest adding a Pahadi Massage to your list of things to do in Uttarakhand.

The Pahadi Massage also known as the Kumauni massage is a centuries old practice having its roots in Ayurvedic medicine. At Club Mahindra the pahadi massage is administered by a trained massage therapist using oils and other natural formulations prepared by the best vaidyas in the hills. The Pahadi Massage uses the healing power of herbs and other medicinal plants such as brahmi, ashwagandha, tulisi infused into walnut, almond or sesame oil. These have been used to alleviate stress, ease sore muscles and joints as well as bring ‘warmth’ to the body in the cold weather and balance the vata and kapha restoring bodily harmony. These formulations, when combined with the massage therapist’s healing hands as they knead stiff muscles, stretch sore joints and soothe the soul, will set the tone for the rest of your holiday in the hills.

We recommend getting a Pahadi Massage on your first day here, as the journey to drive to the resort can get a bit tiresome and sitting through it can wreak havoc on your knees, lower back and shoulders. You could also get the pahadi massage after a long day trekking through the hills before winding down with a comforting pahadi dinner and ultimately, a good night's sleep wrapped in cozy blankets.

With Club Mahindra, you can witness many such magnificent experiences across 100+ resorts in India and abroad! To know more about the Pahadi Massage, read the Club Mahindra member reviews.
