I suffered from terrible migraine and died a little for 2-3 days every month. I had tried all possible remedies but with no results. I discovered Ayurveda and decided to give it a go. I have read many good reviews about Shymala Ayurveda Spa so I called and booked an Ayurvedic consultation with Dr Rohan. Dr Rohan checked my pulse, discussed my diet, gave me some herbs, a diet chart and booked for a treatment called Shirodhara. I was sceptical about the whole thing, especially that I was recommended to book a series of 6 treatments, so decided to start with 1 treatment first. I had another consultation few weeks later and signed up for a detox. Pricey, but it worked! I promised to spread the word! by Tam Tam, 10 May 2010

* No confidentiality while medical questions are asked prior to treatment (door was open, people were walking in and listening to personal details).

* The price quoted for treatments was doubled when it came time to pay - and since they only accept bookings with a confirmed credit/debit card, have taken the difference from my bank account without my permission.

A very disappointing experience, considering we'd gone there to de-stress and relax!
