Nita Lake Lodge Welcomes The Opening Of Ashram Spa & Wellness

On August 15, the Nita Lake Lodge will welcome the opening of the new Ashram Spa & Wellness. One of Canada’s only authentic Ayurvedic spas, the Ashram Spa, with its in-house Ayurvedic doctor, will feature a comprehensive range of Ayurvedic therapies including massage, yoga, exercise, diet and nutrition to help guests and visitors reestablish health, harmony and balance.

Offering personalized and individualized treatments based on the clients’ body constitution, interest and needs, the spa will welcome guests with four treatment rooms, a consultation room, and a sun-drenched yoga studio featuring breathtaking views of Whistler Mountain. Whether it’s a relaxation massage or multi-day detoxification and rejuvenation program, the Ashram Spa will provide guided direction for guests under the supervised care of a certified Ayurvedic doctor using organic herbs, flower extracts, and infused oils brought in directly from India.

Ashram Spa & Yoga in Whistler will be Therapy Ayurveda International’s second destination spa in Canada with its first set on the grounds of Cable Cove Inn in Tofino, British Columbia. Formerly known as Ayurcare, Therapy Ayurveda also runs the Therapy Ayurveda Wellness Centre in Johannesburg, South Africa. Therapy Ayurveda India runs one of the country’s most respected and reputed Ayurvedic clinics operating the largest chain of Ayurvedic Wellness Centres in the country with fifty Wellness Centres and four destination resort spas from coast to coast.

Originating in India over 5,000 years ago, Ayurveda is the world’s oldest medical practice. A lifestyle practice that encompasses a path of wellness via empowerment and knowledge, Ayurveda is a holistic approach to health which incorporates diet, exercise, herbs and meditation along with science and medicine to achieve total well-being of mind and body. Translated as “the knowledge of life,” Ayurveda encompasses considerations of longevity, rejuvenation and self-realization. Preferring to focus on the unique nature and characteristics of the individual, Ayurveda is a patient-orientated system of healing. 

To complement Ashram Spa & Yoga’s menu of services, the Nita Lake Lodge will also offer more traditional spa treatments and amenities including pedicures and manicures, the new Fix deli offering vegan vegetarian, wheat-free and Ayurvedic cuisine and top-of-the-line fitness room with personalized training offered by Innovative Fitness.

Uniquely situated on the shores of Whistler’s Nita Lake, the small 77-suite lodge features spacious deluxe studios, one and two bedroom suites that reflect a discerning lifestyle.
