However, we also offer an exclusive condensed wellness program with 75 to 90 minutes of Ayurvedic therapies per day. This shorter program provides significant cost savings, making Malika more affordable and accessible to a wider audience. In Ayurveda, more treatments are not necessarily “better” or more effective.
