"Very soul uplifting! Feeling a great metamorphosis from within and without. Excellent staff and environment. Thankyou Dr. Mathai for your nurturing."

"I am overwhelmed by the personal care taken by all the doctors, therapist and all the staff. Whether it’s the treatment centre, dinning, reception everywhere the care and support is from the heart. I Thank You for everything. The temple of Dr. Mathai for healing, coming here and staying is a wonderful experience. I will be eager to come here soon."

"I loved peace round the place here and people who work are friendly and warmth, especially doctors, girls, cook, and other boys. I love them all."

"To be honest I have been contemplating doing a similar package for about five years now. There never feel the right time or maybe I just did not get that 'feel good' feeling. 'SOUKYA' , It just happened and it changed a lot for me…….. and at the end of my stay I have this 'feel good' feeling that I have done something right after a long time even if it was for me and to have SOUKYA with me is added bonus to that feeling. The place is very soothing, the people are very caring. It is like a place in time."

"SOUKYA gave me a good "sense of belonging". I plan to be back soon! Harmony of mind, body and spirit doesn't sound to be an abstract term now!"

"Seek and ye shall find ! I read about Dr. Mathai in February 2003 in Hyderabad. It is pure destiny that I found him , this is a special experience. God willing I will keep coming back . Very kind and professional staff."

"I have been hearing Dr. Mathai speak about SOUKYA for years and now I have finally come. It is everything that he promised - an incredibly beautiful, serene oasis from my "real world" and a place that heals from the inside out. I am so glad I stayed three weeks - I can already feel the difference it has made. I have never been so pampered in my life - it took some getting used to the focus being on me - the staff couldn't be more attentive to my needs and desires. Superb staff!! And the food was not only nourishing but utterly tantalisingly delicious - my palate has been awakened as well as something deep inside. Thank you for all you do."

"It was a great stay. Very calming and learned a lot about myself. Lost weight and inches and hope to continue. The good work Dr. Mathai has started. God bless and wishing SOUKYA the very best."

"The word "holistic" is the appropriate word which indirectly means "Paradise On Earth". This is a centre for healing your mind, body and soul. It rejuvenates your whole body and gives you the serenity, peace of the mind and soul. This centre brings a close bondage between God and us either by nature, lovely people (Dr. Mathai) and to know yourself for what an individual you are today. Last but not the least "It's an experience beyond the common materialistic world". Thanks to every person who has looked after me and I am happy that you have kept alive our tradition and culture."

"SOUKYA means eternal peace on mind, body and soul. It was a wonderful experience in SOUKYA. People in SOUKYA are very hospitable and polite and very friendly too. In SOUKYA we learnt lots about life and about ourselves. Our stay in SOUKYA will be a very memorable one."

"Led by the charismatic Dr. Mathai, the SOUKYA team is rendering wonderful service to humanity! The place has been so thoughtfully planned that it couldn't be better. The commitment, warmth and sincerity of everyone, at every step can be touching. I feel bad for people who haven't seen or been to this place. I will do my best to get more people to visit and 'experience' the beauty of the rejuvenative nature of the place! Thanks for everything!"

"A very well maintained healing centre. Food is healthy and nutritious. The staff should be more forthcoming about the treatments and their costs so that we can plan treatments accordingly. All the same we would definitely like to visit the place again."

"It is a wonderful experience of getting a feel of integrated system of treatment making natural environment to ensure soothing of body and soul. This is a natural way of introducing what India and its heritage stands for. India's systems of medicine is our great incredible heritage. Thanks to Dr. Issac for having preserved and promoting it."

"SOUKYA is kindness and grace - it is the combined heart of all its doctors, therapists and staff. Here both serenity and wellness walk hand-in-hand. Thank you for a life-changing experience."

"SOUKYA is an oasis of serenity, beauty and spirituality. It has been a truly rejuvenating experience under the very efficient and sensitive care of the doctors and staff. Thank You for making our stay so memorable! Congratulation to Dr. Mathai and Suja for creating this sanctuary."

"SOUKYA was calling me back here. Here I can be myself - Thank You for creating a place where true healing takes place. I continually feel I want to be and stay a part of SOUKYA. I treasure your friendship, Suja and Issac and look forward to watching SOUKYA grow."

"A wonderful and unique experience. Excellent hospitality. Thanks to the warm care given by the Drs and therapists. All did a wonderful job. Keep it up! God willing will be back."

“Dear Suja and Dr. Mathai I would like to share few thoughts of mine during my stay of 8 days at SOUKYA. As a doctor myself I know how much difficult and stressful to run a medical establishment. Now one can imagine the mega establishment of yours. I am short of words to put it regarding your institution; starting from reception to treatment your staff has given the happiness and comfort of a house. Everyone has shown warm attitude when we meet them, they are your priceless asset. We all can imagine who is behind this magnificous show. It is none other than yourself and your wife. I have a simple and common word Thanks for what all I have received at SOUKYA. This Thanks has a special meaning here. I can do only one duty by praying God for the welfare of you, your family and children, your staff and patients for whom you have dedicated yourself day and night and for the wellbeing of your patient at physical and mental level . As a member of doctor fraternity, I congratulate your doctors for their kind and concern”

“Three days are not enough in this idyllic place. I will leave floating on a cloud of serenity. Many Thanks to Dr. Mathai and all your wonderful staff. I will spread the word about SOUKYA in the UK - and hope to return.”

“This was a wonderful experience. I am glad I came. I will be returning soon with more people. They all need some escape from their daily lives struggles.”

“The place, staff, medical treatments and advice have done wonders for me. Many thanks to you Dr. Mathai and every one at 'SOUKYA'.”

“Serene and tranquil environment at SOUKYA has brought a new vigour and liveliness in me. I would greatly recommend the experiences to any. Staff and administration is worthy of higher praise.”

“Idyllic, serene, peaceful and tranquil place. The staff, doctors and therapists have done wonders for me. An experience of a lifetime which I will never forget.”

“It has been an extremely relaxing time, far from the mad world ….. A unique experience where one can find oneself. Wonderful staff.”

Thank you SOUKYA for teaching me to respect my body, calm my mind, and elevate my spirit. My sincerest thanks to the doctors and staff and I wish you every success. God Bless."

"After nine weeks traveling in India on pilgrimage what better way to integrate my journey than to travel deeply into body, mind, spirit through SOUKYA treatments. Through this blessed purification and letting go of physical, emotional and mental toxins may I and all sentiment beings be healed and may we dwell together in peace, love, joy and happiness that is free from suffering and the causes of suffering. Gratitude to all."

"I have been a fan of Dr. Mathai since 1990, now I have became a fan of Mrs. Mathai too. I came here to get healed. I am going back healed, inspired and motivated. In addition to being a fantastic healing center, SOUKYA is a great example of professional and management excellence. It is people like Doctor and Mrs. Mathai who will make this century the century of India. SOUKYA has inspired me to go back into the "real" world and excel in everything I do - now this is true healing!! While Dr. Mathai's presence is obvious in Soukya, Mrs. Mathai is omnipresent. The gentle touch of a lovely hostess is present everywhere. What a great couple!"

"A different place, and an experience very different, yet had before. Wish the crew of ‘SOUKYA’ – all the very best for the future. The staff and crew have been great at their hospitality. Thanks a lot.”

"Logo saying fight it ! “Never let your mind down” Beautiful, peaceful environment. Extremely healthy, mind focusing, good healing process. Excellent staff very friendly.”Health is Wealth” SOUKYA like my second house – actually “first” surely come back very soon. I just have many more compliments – but, for now Goodbye ! Thank you for every thing.”

"A feast for the eyes. Nature in all it's glory. Dr. Mathai is a humane and sensitive doctor. Wish more doctors were like him. The staff – polite and yet very warm. One goes warm and happy in spirits. Thank you Dr. Mathai.”

"We are very very pleased with the treatment. All the doctors and staff are very good and co-operative. Food served for breakfast lunch and dinner was nice. Very nice and pleasant place for morning and evening walk 2.5km, track is nice.”

"Very pleasant staff my comments are just as positive as my last trip. Good doctors – Excellent staff – Good sense of humour. Every body all positive and smiling SOUKYA will always be a big part of my life. (Health is Wealth)”

"A pleasant surprise and even fun despite all my initial hesitation. Good food, great staff from top to bottom. I am actually feeling a little sad leaving. “Lekhana” and “Soukya” will always be on my mind and in my memories. Will be back!!”

"My mother and I just descended to this institution and are so glad that we did so. Every body is so professional and courteous and I am leaving with fond memories of this serene place. If my mother does get better than it will be an added bonus but am confidential that the team at SOUKYA will make my trip worthwhile. God bless all at Soukya.”

"Hey SOUKYA – “ give me back my belly”. Special thanks to Pradeep and kitchen staff for the unlimited supply of Dosas. I guess the highlight of my stay would be the excellent massages and the unforgettable Basti’s (don’t think I’ll be back for the same in the near future) Jokes apart – a long peaceful three weeks with friendly and knowledgeable doctors and staff made my stay an enjoyable one. Thank you doctor and Mrs. Mathai and wish SOUKYA and staff all the best.”

"It was unique and great days which I spent in Soukya. Every thing is excellent, staff, food, treatments and weather. Special thanks to Dr. Mathai for his great efforts to establish this center.”

"Heaven on earth ! The peaceful environment and the super friendly staff makes 'Soukya' and unforgettable experience. The treatments were amazing. Seven stars !”

"I glorify god, as he has given wonderful opportunity to stay in Soukya. I received good treatment and attained good relaxation to my mind, body and soul. I pray god to bless Dr. Mathai and family members and staff members of Soukya. Thank You.”

"Soukya" is a visionary's dream come true. To Dr. Issac Mathai the visionary goes the credit for realising his life's ambition to get up a truly Global Holistic Centre.

I wish Dr. Issac Mathai who is ably assisted by his charming wife Suja all the very best.”

But I celebrated with SOUKYA family which was indeed very touching for me. I pray for all of you and Love you."

"The place is beautiful!! The people are very friendly and warm and most of all the treatments are fabulous! Good Luck! Keep up the excellent work! Good Luck!!” - Sindoori Reddy (Chennai)

"When I got here, I was like Humpty – Dumpty – all in pieces ! My grateful thanks to Dr. Issac Mathai and his marvelous team, who very lovingly put me back together again – piece by piece! Excellent, very high quality treatment, lovely staff ! Super facility. “

"It’s been wonderful to know your family and to see you bring your dreams to fruition. Your facility is extra ordinary. World class, Thanks. It’s great knowing the Mathai family. A BIENTDT – To see you soon again!”

"The place is beautiful. All the doctors and staff are very good. In the morning just heaven! A great break away from Pune! In the afternoon and evening we feel just we are in the quiet place like jungle, there is only noise of birds and nature. People are very friendly. Treatments are very good, lovely staff. Thanks for all to Dr. Mathai! To see you soon again!”

"Well today is my last day here and I have a heavy heart! In the past three weeks you have taken me from a person in pain with no hope to pain free, healthy, energized, happy and ready to take on the world again. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! The care, love and attention to detail here is unlike any thing I have ever experienced. It has been a real Heaven on Earth! I look forward to returning.”

"Absolutely terrific experience. Incredible landscaping – a “true oasis” in the middle of madness. Superb doctors, therapists, staff – calm, serene, pleasant and effective. The atmosphere is heavenly. The food is good – effective for what one needs to achieve. “

"Fantastic time, that is the best way to describe this Heaven of Peace…. It’s been distressing, unwinding and one feels completely relaxed and peaceful. Everyone is so very helpful and caring. It is been a wonderful experience.”

"I was very apprehensive when I came nine days and as I had just quit smoking. From the first day the staff put me at ease with their wonderful demeanor. Dr. Mathai “Mabrook” on a great facility ! Loved the food and the massages. If there is one thing I would change it would probably be the decoration of the rooms - Natural fabrics like khadi and a lighter sofa finishing would be better. The interior of the rooms can be little putting off. All in all- a wonderful and healthy trip. More to send my husband here soon and be back myself. Thank you.”

"I feel like I have experienced ‘Rebirth’. I came here to quit smoking and relax and I am going back with both objectives 100% fulfilled. The only revelation has been the two main objectives that I had before I came are really fringe benefits. Soukya, has given me a new body, refreshed, recharged and rejuvenated my mind and body. The wonderful ambience, the great food, friendly staff and most importantly the entire experience will be relived, flavoured and revisited again ! Keep up the good work and thank you from the bottom of my heart”

"I just want to thank Soukya, that is Uncle, Aunty, Dr. Shubha and all the therapists for helping me achieve a part of my goal and also for the wonderful hospitality. God Bless !”

"Unfortunately I was only able to spend a short weekend here. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful, the staff caring and friendly, the treatments soothing yet invigorating. I hope to be able to return again for a longer stay.”

"Wow! We had a beautiful, rejuvenating weekend. The cool breeze, nature-blended environment, relaxing treatment and courteous staff make a magical effect. We did not realize that “relaxation” is such a serious affair. Thank you, Dr. Mathai.”

"We felt completely relaxed and rejuvenated at this Heavenly spa. The world at our doorstep! Kudos to the wonderfully trained staff. Thank you Dr. Shubha and Dr. Mathai."

"A retreat for mind, body and soul par excellence is SOUKYA with holistic approach in all respects – the ambience, treatment, food and the overall approach. Do keep it up and we do hope to be associated with it life long. Thank you. “

"Thanks to my wife I ended up here and now leave here with a very positive experience. Excellent staff and great facility. Compliments to Dr & Mrs.Mathai and every individuals at SOUKYA that makes this is a great experience ! Will hopefully be back – Insha – Allah.”

"Positive achievements are obtained through much effort and application. Unfortunately we tend to become complacent and paralysed at the very thought of an applicable process that could possibly heal and gave us. Issac, we’re known each other for almost twenty years and I am honored to be your friend. For you and Suja, SOUKYA has become a reality. For me SOUKYA has become a source of rejuvenation. Am I looking for a miracle or should I be satisfied with feeling great? I will take the later. Much love to you and the staff."

"If “faith can move mountains, so can Soukya!” And that is because the SOUKYA “theme”, the only one of its kind in the world, is backed by the SOUKYA “team” which perhaps is one of a one of kind found no where else. If your medicines worked like magic, Dr. Mathai and Suja, the love and compassion, the hospitality and grace, the friendliness and smiles and the sheer human touch of your fantastic team were truly the healing balm for the body and mind. And so clearly, this team is lead by two people, You, Dr. Mathai and Suja, who, by being who you all are making this world a more beautiful place. Equally remembering the love and warmth of Dr. Sudha, Dr. Shubha, Kala, the therapists and all the serving staff – you made us well, you made us well, you made us whole again – Thank you, over and over."

"Healthy ways” – Body, mind and soul – A unique experience just that subtle and still touching every part of your life on this lovely campus – that’s how I will rate the hospitality. For Dr. Mathai to have visualized this in his mind and then to have made in a reality – makes a very special person. This world needs more Mathais."

"I will take back with me memorable experiences of this place, the people and the wonderful friends. I made – that combined with the treatments – was an unforgettable experience. I will be back again. Inshaallh !”

"Pure place which reminds me that humans are part of nature. Curing means not just physical, but very much mental. Everything is so self - explanatory, landscaping, nutrition, flower basin, small God in the room, prayer in the Morning: Philosophy here is fusion of orientalism and Occidentalism "the port" is open to every thing. Wonderful moment is walk through the path around the domain. When sun goes down moon rises. The significance of day time activities is to get sound and deep sleep just like a baby."

"It is peaceful and nice place to stay and get quality treatment for whole body and sole. Dr. Mathai and his entire team is doing good for the society by importing good health services. Thanks to all the Doctor and Staff."

"Thanks very much for a relaxing and refreshing two days. We love the organic food and environmentally - friendly living. We made good use of the table tennis too! Best of luck and many thanks."

"Words are quite inadequate to convey our thanks to Issac and Suja for the welcome and hospitality they have showered upon us in this wonderful place they have created. While we now our love remains behind."

"I loved my stay here. This was just what I needed at this time. The calm, the peace, the pampering. I'll be back very often from now on. Thank you!"

"A great place for relaxation, rejuvenation and stress management. Certainly worth a longer visit."

"Thank you". I have had a wonderful experience with wonderful people around. What draws me to this place is the positivity around. When the life in city gets hell and you realize you cannot breath you know in your heart there is a place in the corner where you can relax your mind & heart. Of course a special thanks goes to the doctor. Who has taken care of every small bit in SOUKYA to make it look perfect and feel perfect. I hope to come again!"

"We enjoyed our stay very much. Everyone was very kind and did there best to look after us so well. We met very nice people here and we love India that much more. We look forward to our next visit soon. Thank you all."

"This is my first visit to SOUKYA. I thank God in the first place for using Dr. Mathai and Mrs. Suja Mathai in enabling her to set up this beautiful center. My congrats to you both. It's an asset to Bangalore and a great blessing too. I found every thing good here. All the treatments were excellent and suited me very well. My thanks to everyone in "SOUKYA". I also used my time well in being close to God, reading his word, praying and seeking his peace and thanking and praising his for this Brilliant Health Centre. Every day I prayed for Dr. & Mrs. Mathai and the fly and every one in SOUKYA May God bless and prospers you and the SOUKYA. Hope to be back soon."

"As I enter the beautiful environs of SOUKYA, I find myself tuning into the rhythm and harmony of nature. I get the strength to heal my mind and body with personalized treatments created to release the flow of energy. The tranquility of the place and the warm and friendly service of the staff is so enveloping that I leave the "real world" behind for a short time, and am once again nourished…. My late husband, Mathin and I were the first few patients in SOUKYA more than four years ago. It was often our heaven and Issac our doctor, counselor and friend. It is wonderful to see SOUKYA evolve onto a vibrant space and a joy to share the dream of Issac and Suja."

"These last couple of days has been really relaxing and pleasant!!! This place and staff are really great!! Will surely be back!!! Thank you and regards."

"The center is doing a yeomen to fulfill the felt needs of a certain class of humankind. It's been a professional eye-opener for me and hope to contribute my bit in bringing about policy initiatives to nurture one Indian system of medicine. Thank you for the experience."

"Heart felt thanks to all at SOUKYA for such a rewarding and rejuvenating 2 weeks. I wish you all the best, and look forward to again. (I'll bring my husband next time.)

"Superb lay out, peaceful, serene, healing. But can do with some fine - tuning. Had a very good stay. Results were good. Did not expect miracles - Ayurveda works slow and steady !! Will be back."

"The dusty roads, the winding ways Turn into a sphere of visual Treat Flowers, birds, trees and cobbed ways The intense greeting you Puts you at rest straight away He is Dr. Mathai The staff, the treatment, the holistic food And spiritual ambience render it the best food For the soul, Body, Heart and Mind. SOUKYA will always be "A Passage To Health"

"Thank you all ! It was perfect for me ! I can see only good in all that is here, so God bless this venture.

God Bless every one at SOUKYA."

"There are no words to define the wonderful time that I had at SOUKYA. Every thing just seemed perfect.. The staff were very kind and helpful and the overall atmosphere such that it made me feel comfortable and at home. Dr. Mathai has brought this wonderful place together for us to benefit. So I thank him for that. The weather was so perfect that it made me more active."

In everything connection to nature and its beauty - in colour, texture, air, fragrance, the ambience - sheer beauty has been woven in. To me the treatment, therapy and other inputs were a real bonus. Will for sure - carry the experience to my colleagues ."

"I was a bit nervous of bringing Manuela all the way from Mexico for her treatment, but I have been more than satisfied with the attention and care of Issac Mathai and his wife and team at SOUKYA. I wish the rest of India could work with such efficiency ! Thank you all."

"My stay at SOUKYA has been a wonderful experience for me - The ambience, conveniences and the people who run SOUKYA with meticulous care and attention.

Here the yoga and massages are relaxing, On the ‘Nada Padha' we go walking. The environment here is calm and quiet, And SOUKYA gives you a delicious vegetarian diet. Every one is surprised that a boy my age, Enjoys coming to such a place, But it's good to escape from the city cage, And watch nature move at its own real pace. SOUKYA is a really beautiful creation, Where I learnt about the local drip irrigation. This is my second trip here, And I hope to return year after year. Thank you Dr. Mathai and everyone !!!"

"The perfect place to be when life seems to dull and busy. I enjoyed the silence and serenity and also the food. The staffs are very comforting and good."

"SOUKYA which means well being is true for this heavenly place. It was a totally different experience for all of us. We never had such a relaxing holiday before with a treat to our body (all the amazing treatments and massages) a treat our eyes (such beautiful scenery and atmosphere) a treat to our senses (the attitude and warmth of all staff) and a treat to our taste buds also (delicious and such a huge variety of food). The staff, doctors and at reception also everyone was always helpful and always smiling. The time with Dr. Mathai was really helpful & we think of him as our best friend how and we will surely come to SOUKYA again to visit him and to enjoy this heaven which he has created."

"A truly holistic experience. Really found the treatment worthwhile. Food was superb and the friendly service exemplary. Look forward to visiting again very soon."

"Very difficult to describe the total experience at SOUKYA in limited words. It compelled to express in one word possible close ones could be MARVELOUS / WONDERFUL. The spirit and attitude of all involved in SOUKYA is appreciable and exemplary. Given an opportunity would love to come tune and again."

The medical and the genetic capability is strong; and in all other aspects the staff have been very well trained and are unfailingly clean, polite & efficient. Facilities are comfortable without being luxurious. All in all had a wonderful stay and expect to be back."

"Excellent and wholesome food; kind and efficient staff.

Hope to return and defenitly recommend friends and family. Maashallah"

"SOUKYA is unique ! The entire approach to therapy is unlike any other. From the Holistic Health Evaluation to the carefully composed treatment schedules, and the patient yet insightful sessions with Dr. Mathai. If you do choose to rejuvenate here, it would help to expect a long term healing effect rather than instant uses. And the benefits would be multi dimensional."

"I arrived unprepared. I know only a little what SOUKYA meant. And here I learned what 'holos' signifies. Of course 11 days are too short to understand all of the philosophy of SOUKYA. But I experienced a careful professional treatment in the therapy centre and enjoyed the areas and the friendliness of all staff who ever I met. I also appreciated that not only the respect for our patients is important but also the ecological food production on your grounds."

"SOUKYA is an excellent place to rejuvenate and relax. At SOUKYA, things just connect to you. The plants, trees, animals, flowers the people everything and everybody interacts with you. After a long time I feel completely relaxed. Note: Dr. Mathai's consultation is worth it."

"I came as a sceptic and leaves as a believer. Sanam came as a believer and leaves with a commitment to return. We shall return. Why ? Because at SOUKYA, they care. And it shows in ways, both small and big. SOUKYA is a textbook case of service excellence driven down by the leader, Dr. Mathai. We thank everyone at SOUKYA for the most relaxing week in our lives.

"We had a great experience ! The environment was homely, people were courteous and extremely accommodative. The treatments were good. The treatments gave a lot of relief for our pains. The food was good. On a whole it calmed our anxiety, and we are leaving with total freshness."

"If something reminded me of my childhood is the pampering I get from each and everyone - massages, warm food, bathes and hair drying from Girija. All the girls at the massage were good, the boys at the kitchen were excellent. My only wish is that all these people are as well paid as the amount Of US dollars charged per each session ! To end it all, I found myself very grounded living thought you people all ground."

"I am in awe and filled with so much gratitude. I have been to so many places and tried so many things - but nothing was been so effective or deep relaxing as the treatments here - A huge thank you to the doctors, the therapists, the waiters and cooks and especially to all the unknown faces behind the scene - it takes an army to run a place like this and I thank each and everyone - I will be back - with everyone I know !"

"I had a very beautiful and comfortable stay at SOUKYA. Right from the time I arrived everybody has been very courteous, smiling and extremely efficient.

"This has been the most heavenly experience. Extremely service and facilities out of this world. This is a little piece of heaven in most fortunate to experience. Thank you."

"Very good experience. Came for only one day - so the time was too short ! The staff was excellent, and the facilities were well mentioned. Really enjoyed every minute of it !"

"I have been to many places, but I can say with full confidence that this is the best place, where I have most people who care for the health of their visitors. I congratulate Dr. Mathai and Mrs. Suja Issac for their wonderful place."

"I arrived at SOUKYA stressed to my limits physically and emotionally after 3 short weeks. I leave fresh and new. All of my pains down the drains. I look forward to walking among the jasmine bushes again someday. Thank you all."

"I have to say that I met the previous writer Suhasin from France and I was sorry to find that she was negative about everything in her life … If only she stayed longer she would have found her positive center - I have watched this center grow from the beginning and it so impressive what has been accomplished ! I came clouded by fear, doubt and in 20 days I am leaving stronger and flexible and clear. Everyone must experience this !! Thank you Thank you !"

"A little piece of heaven on earth. I leave SOUKYA with my spirits and feel blessed to have met such wonderful caring staff and to have enjoyed the natural beauty. To all of you - I give a heartfelt thank you. Keep smiling, keep dancing and remember to love. "

hen I left Switzerland 2 weeks ago, I headed all for a place to relax and recharge my batteries. What I found though in SOUKYA was a piece of heaven on earth with a beautiful paradise garden ! Many thanks to all of you, who made my days so lovely and unforgettable. I take a lot of details back in my memory from nicely arranged flower bowls to impressive yoga positions … I might be able to know some of them into practice. God bless you all."

"I came here to get rid of my pain in the knee and spondilititis. SOUKYA received me with a warmth and friendliness. I became a child when I walk through the Jasmine foot path and ofcourse, the lonely goat, turkey, hen, cows. The doetons, therapists and other staff are very caring and taking all the details and friendly. Yoga is good. On the whole this place is soon pleaseful with positive energy. As for my suggestion a little bit of change in the Menu, to eater to all kinds of people coming from different part of the world. A small Ganesan temple with bell ringing to drive away any negativity. I pray to Mookambika for a long life and prosperity to Dr. Mathai, Suja and their family."

"I have been so touched by the care and concern of all the staff and their pleasant presence. The doctors professionalism and attention to details makes me feel assured that both the bigger and the little matters of my health are valued by them and incorporated into the treatments. All their, supported by a beautiful, natural environment ! A obglent accommodation in the menu for guests with different taste buds would be my suggestion. Thanks so much, Dr. Mathai& Suja and the best of luck and good wishes to you - and SOUKYA."

"The first place we think of when ill or stressed out is SOUKYA ! I would recommend this to all my friends ! Family - Everyone needs to recharge once in a while. Everything is just perfect - Please give the wild rabbit a companion. He is very lonely. Thank you for all the care, warmth; hospitality. Will definitely come here every chance we get. It's even more wonderful, if that's possible, than on our last visit in 2004 !"

"The magnificence of the surroundings is mirrored in the outstanding service and magical hospitality of the staff at every single level. We feel blessed to be have and carry SOUKYA and the Mathai family in our hearts. Thank you." "We arrived feeling ragged and we leave feeling well rested and cared for. Thank you all for the care you have given us." "It's been a great holiday partly because of you !"

"A unique place and experience that deserves to be emilated - it seems to me to offer the only sensible way of promoting health, happiness and poulsing. It offers you the chance to find the places under you that you have forgotten or have been ignoring the really good places. I wish you every success. It's truly deserved."

"It was simply ‘Heaven on Earth'. One feels the presence of God, His peace and serenity every where. I could have been in a better place to receive the quietness and peace I was really in need form my busy schedule. God bless all your endeavors."

Rajeev: "It's a wonderful place to stay and spend its time with lease. The sessions were wonderful and even the doctors were good. The therapies were real affective.

I look forward to coming back to the warmth and care of the place and the people who run it."

"During our first visit here at SOUKYA, our family had a wonderful time enjoying our time together.

SOUKYA is great, I reserve my comment until next visit during which Dr. Mathai promised me a smile. Thanks."

"The place is amazing, like a perfect place needed for relaxation. The therapies are very effective. I am going to keep the memories until my next visit which should be soon. Thank you Dr. Mathai for taking care. The staff is well trained and courteous. P.S. - A gym or atleast a treadmill should be provided as the weather can get rainy sometimes so just to carry on the work out. Thank you."

"It is true, I am relaxed ! Far away from your daily stresses, such a beautiful place. Will certainly divert your all emotions for a while. The food is almost too good ! Therapies quite enjoyable and everybody is charming. I will come back when there will be new rooms as the noise has kept me awake on most nights. Also could you add a beauty parlour? It would be so nice to be able to get a facial, your nails done and look like new when one gets out! Thank you."

"Truly a place to commune with god and discover the mysteries of nature. The staff and service was simply outstanding. I congratulate Dr. Mathai on the success of SOUKYA and wish him the very best in carrying this message to the world."

"Staff was very genuine and caring. Soumya & Shubha paid special attention to our needs. Very relaxing environment. Couldn't go swimming. Wanted to get pedicure and facial treatment as well. Food was excellent."

"Serene and peaceful ambiences. Truly a beautiful setting. Super service by well trained staff with a super attitude. Very healthy and very tasty food. Highly skilled therapists. Really professional doctors. Dr. Mathai has truly built an institution which is unique. I will definitely come back. But may when SOUKYA has broad band internet access in the rooms."

"This has been a splendid experience, though at 3½ days, too short ! My wife and I were overwhelmed by SOUKYA - the beautiful landscaping, the layout, the traditional and attractive buildings and above all the superb quality of the staff and the services. The therapies and treatments were all administered professionally and extremely well. But what attract us most was the attitude of the staff. They were, without exception, highly competent, professionally well trained, and extremely pleasant to deal with - helpful, willing, ever smiling, and ready to rememberor anticipate every need. SOUKYA is clearly a healthy family and for that, full credit must go to Doctor and Mrs. Issac Mathai and their superb management team. A very special word of thanks to Dr. Shubha for their expertise and attentiveness; to Ramesh, my lead therapist, for his outstanding services; to Ruati, my diligent and capable reflexologist; and to the always cheerful and highly efficient Geo of the kitchen staff for his kindness and for his prompt service. We leave SOUKYA impressed, uplifted and grateful. God willing, we will be back - for longer ! Best wishes to all at SOUKYA."

"Soler, serene and colourful ambience provide the background for a harmonious synthesis of peace and tranquility. People in this organization at all levels from the reception, room service, doctors, therapists - seems to be the greatest asset. Service with humility, courtesy, affection and with a smile enchants and captivate. A word of ‘thanks' is warranted to Mr. Jojy Mathew for his all round performance and prompt and pro-active response to situations. We also wish to thank Dr. Mathai and wish the enterprise he has built and prosperity and success."

"Hi to everyone at SOUKYA and thanks a lot. We had an amazing and wonderful experience here. We enjoyed our holidays together here - very relaxing, heavenly and very insightful. This is really heaven on earth and only because of all the people here. Everyone from doctors, to therapists, to kitchen staff, to house keeping person were so helpful, courteous, warm friendly and always ready to assist. Varsha, Narayan, Ashok at therapy was full of warmth always. Manu and Anish at kitchen were always there for our service. Jaya at reception was always smiling. The food especially was outstanding. Very innovative also. I learned some new dishes. Harish even made pizza for kids. So thanks a lot for all of you and we will definitely come again. These all happened only because of you.

I have to make a special mention of Aneesh, Jobin, Shabin, Manu, Tiju, Geo who were excellent with their courteous manners and warmth good job. Please keep it up. Same in the case with both the therapists Girija especially Gayathri also who gave me treatment very professionally and nicely done and eveready to help out. Their smiles itself keeps us cheerful. Thanks a lot to both of you along with the guidance of doctors. You both did a great work. The whole ambience at SOUKYA is so appealing, peaceful and has been very well kept with the landscaping garden well taken care by Joe along with his gardening staff and the rooms very well (kept) maintained under the supervision of Ramesh along with house keeping staffs. I liked all the front desk personals too who were also very warm, smiling and helpful. Ofcourse it goes without saying that without the guidance and vision of Dr. Mathai & Mrs. Mathai none of these will be possible. So thanks a lot for SOUKYA. I should also thank Harish and Srinivas for their excellent cooking and demonstrating nice recepies. According to me SOUKYA = ever smiling, very cheerful staff, wellness, peacefulness overall good health (once we finish all our treatments). Quodos to everyone at SOUKYA. Thanks a lot doctor. I would like to write pages on praises about everything in SOUKYA but right now time is ticking so we move on better with bigger smiling faces. Thank you Girija for the therapy treatment you gave me. I was really impressed. God Bless. We pray to God that everybody remains this way SOUKYA at SOUKYA. Bye for now."

"A short stay, but an enjoyable one. SOUKYA has been a wonderful experience - the environment, therapies and welcoming staff. SOUKYA has brought together, my mind, body and soul in harmony, a rejuvenating experience. Had a fantastic time, but I guess all good things come to an end, until next time.

"I thought the feeling of being up in the skies in your tightest aircraft was bliss - until I came here and felt thought not the same - but a must try for all to feel the almost same bliss. Thank you and God willing I will be back soon."

"A wonderful experience!! An extra ordinary hospitality with excellent food. The interaction with doctors and the rest of your staff is of a loving and friendly kind. The treatments are incredibly well performed. The garden is so beautiful and gives time/possibility for reflexion and rest. Thank you, Dr. Mathai. Looking forward to seeing you soon again."

"This is my 3rd visit to SOUKYA - In fact it has now became an annual feature for me. A place which is home away from home - a place to recharge, refresh and rejuvenate. Plus get rid any minor/major ailments that may have crept in during the year. Dr. Mathai and his staff deserve Kudos for keeping the standards high and improving upon them. My best wishes to them always and my prayers for the success of their new ventures. Till next time……."

"Thank you for an absolutely wonderful stay. I visited SOUKYA for the third time and was, once again, astounded by the staff that are all so warm, accommodating, kind and genuine. This place is a true sanctuary and slice of heaven and a delight to visit. Thank you all for a wonderful week!"

"As usual, the minute you step into SOUKYA, you feel more peaceful. The staff is always very friendly and helpful and we are enjoying ourselves here while getting consultation as well."

"SOUKYA is like a gift of the Gods - a spiritual sanctuary to heal body and mind. Honoured and privileged to have found SOUKYA. Laughter contributes to healing. How about laughter sessions daily? Proper, yogic breathing helps too. Can such simple to follow programs be introduced? I pray that more people get to know about SOUKYA's harmony."

"It is the first time I had the feeling the staff was almost as pleased to be here as me. I have never seen such well being elsewhere, and it is contagious."

My specific medical issues were addressed both individually and as a part of my overall wellbeing. Dr.Mathai was always available to correct and to guide.The sheer joy of waking up to living the day in and returning in SOUKYA calmed not just the mind and spirit but the demons of ill health as well. Thank you!"

- Mr.Ramu Damodaran after 16 days stay, January 2015. "Congratulations Dr Mathai & Mrs Mathai for what you have achieved by materialising your dreams and ideas with your effort and work.The result is SOUKYA and your institution overall – it’s a great path in Holistic Integration, which you give on for the future.

Thank you."

Every time I have visited I feel so much at home here. It’s always with a heavy heart I say goodbye to SOUKYA. Till my next trip, which will be hopefully in the near future."

"Our second visit to SOUKYA and there has been no change- Everyone is still so welcoming, caring and attentive. It really is a bit of paradise on earth. We leave rejuvenated and detoxified- ready to continue the excellent work put in by the doctors and therapists.Their support, advice and care is so appreciated. Thank you! Chef’s cooking demos have also been most useful. I go back with recipes I am going to try. Last but definitely not the least, Thank you to all the friends that we have met.

Everyone, right from the doctors, therapists and specially the food department has taken very good care of us. Hats off to DR Mathai to come up with such a concept. The 40 days that I have spent here will be cherished by me always. The holistic approach of healing was very rejuvenating. Lastly, but most importantly- SOUKYA for us in one word would be simply ‘HEAVEN’. And I pray to God, coming here will be the beginning of a new life for me."

All the best to you all, you were God sent. Thanking you, love you."

"I was extremely impressed with SOUKYA, everything from the room, to the beautiful grounds, the friendly staff, the knowledgeable doctors and the wonderful treatments! And the food of course is delicious! I will miss my morning walks and the sound of the birds! All the best."

"The time spent at SOUKYA was an experience out of the world. Will come again soon for a longer duration. The place itself has a good vibrancy. You feel to be in a place free from all tensions."

"It is a fallacy to project SOUKYA as solely the place for treatment. One should visit SOUKYA just to relax, rejuvenate and re-energise- for a holiday- drawned in sheer beauty, calm and solitude."

"Thank You very much to SOUKYA family. We enjoyed our stay and the treatments. The ambience, the therapists, doctors were excellent! We loved it here. Thanks again!"

We thank you for all effort that therapists, doctors and Dr Mathai are doing to give the best to us. God bless you all, always. Thank You!"

"Our second visit was as heavenly as our first! The serenity and healing environment at SOUKYA are out of this world. The food is fantastic and the staff are well trained and always have a sunny disposition. The doctors are excellent and the leadership provided by Dr Mathai and Mrs Mathai is exemplary. We have definitely committed ourselves to annual visits to the little piece of Heaven called SOUKYA."

"Being my first visit, I have only really praises for Dr Mathai and team, and the beautiful environment he has built in Bangalore. For me, it’s like a mile stone, which a few years from now I hope would be like a turning point towards a healthy life. While I lost a few kilos in weight I lost more in my head and I feel really light and energised. Great Place."

"Before coming to SOUKYA we did not really know what to expect, upon our arrival we found a beautiful and peaceful place, competent Doctors, a well organised structure and a friendly staff always at our disposal. The holistic approach was an eye opener and we felt far away from our day to day frenzy in Europe. We both feel great and healthy."

"It is one of the best places I have visited and I would like to thank all the team members who work in this place. I will come back again as soon as possible and I will tell all of my Family and friends. Thank you!"

"Brilliant Experience. I feel very lucky to have been advised – suggested to visit this amazing holistic institution. Only after few days I feel so much better. Not enough good words to say about everything and everyone."

"My first visit so did not expect to find such an efficient, well organised & run holistic centre. Everyone from the doctors to the gardeners with a permanent smile on their faces was exhilarating to see. Thanks for a good stay and looking after me so well. Though I did not come here for a specific ailment in mind. It has opened my eyes about another avenue to the holistic approach to health via Ayurveda and homeopathy. Thanks again."

"I was fearful of travelling so far and alone, but at 84 years old I knew I had to do something drastic. I was feeling old and lacked energy and incentive to do much of anything. I forced myself to take the 20 hr trip to SOUKYA. After 1 month, I am very hopeful that my life will become greatly improved. Treatment plan and daily consultations regarding my progress, I feel much more energized and able to become the active person I used to be. I am on the way to a healthier lifestyle through Yoga. Diet, proper exercise and mindfulness of the path to wellness. There is no place like SOUKYA to learn the lessons of healthy living. I am grateful to have been here. Thank you Dr Mathai and all of your outstanding staff for an unforgettable experience."

"SOUKYA is the world class site for Ayurvedic treatments. The outstanding holistic health centre continues to provide me with rejuvenation and a positive attitude toward aging. Thanks everyone for my 8th visit."

"We are back second time within a year with our daughter. This speaks how we have been experiencing the well-being of the treatments we have received. We are also happy to know that we can continue the follow up with SAHAYA which is very close to our residence. Hope to be back to get well and feel better and better than before!"

This is the most amazing place in the whole world for healing and relaxation ! Symptoms that I had for 6 years and discussed with 4 different doctors in the US were cured within a month ! There is still a few weeks of balancing time involved , but I am so much better . thank you so much for the integrative approach !!!!

Words cannot express how grateful I am for the time I spent at Soukya. I traveled to Soukya earlier this year seeking treatment for a condition that traditional western medicine could only treat with drugs for over 10 years. I not only had my condition healed, but also gained a firm foundation for improving my wellbeing for years to come. There was not a moment during my stay that I didn't feel completely taken care of by the entire Soukya staff. Everyone you encounter is completely committed to your wellbeing. The therapy treatments are first class, and had an impact far deeper than I anticipated when I arrived. Doctor Mathai pointed out to me on arrival that being fully at Soukya is part of the treatment, and I completely agree having spent three weeks there. Taking in the beauty of all the grounds, including all the sights, sounds and smells of is part of the healing process. The entire campus is immaculately designed and cared for. I highly recommend Soukya to anyone seeking to invest in their long term healing and wellbeing. I believe it's the best center if its kind anywhere on earth.

They do not force u to do things rather they convince, Very friendly crew, but a bit expensive!!!

It's an amazing place which is very clean with beautifully manicured lawns and an amazing staff. The treatments offered are excellent with well trained therapists and excellent doctors to guide you through. I recommend this place fully to anyone who needs rejuvenation or for treatment for some ailment or for weight loss and they will tailor make a package to suit your needs. I pray that this place will prosper in Jesus 's mighty name �

Soukya? I would go there to rejuvenate and cure. Over and over again. Wonderful insightful doctors and staff

Wonderful ambience.... Excellent atmosphere... Soothing n calm place
