CGH Prakriti Shakti 5★
Location: Panchalimedu, approx. 130 km / 3.5 hours drive from Cochi Airport
The Concept: Healing Through Nature
Nestled in the untouched tranquility of the Western Ghats, Prakriti Shakti is set at an altitude of around 850 meters in the Idukki district of Kerala. The region of Panchalimedu welcomes you with a mystical atmosphere: a cool breeze flows through the rolling hills, often veiled in soft mist, offering spectacular views of lush green mountain peaks. The air here is exceptionally pure, making the regenerative character of this retreat immediately tangible.
Prakriti Shakti (operated by the CGH Earth Group) is a dedicated naturopathy centre. Its philosophy is simple yet powerful: “The body heals itself when given the right conditions.” There are no conventional medications, instead, treatments are based on the five natural elements – earth, water, air, fire (sun), and ether.

The naturopathic path
When you are on the naturopathic path to healing, you are enwrapped by the protective wings of nature and in its beatific warmth, you experience healing in the purest way. You are indeed travelling inwards to recognise and acknowledge the innate healer. In this rejuvenatory experience, the concept of good health goes beyond the mere absence of ailments and treatment is not limited to addressing the symptoms. Naturopaths identify the root cause of ailments and work towards the elimination of these causes.
This part of the treatment process, which is important in attaining permanent cure, is overlooked or often avoided in the fast-paced and quick-fix approach of modern systems of medicine. By treating the person as a whole, Nature Cure touches the physical, mental and spiritual planes of well-being and also works towards the prevention of ailments. These holistic aspects show the relevance and the scope of Naturopathy as a medical system apt for the physical and mental ailments affecting the humankind today.
