Traditional massage, oils, herbs and steam therapy work together to detox the body, soften tissues and open the lymphatic system for optimal healing.
Heat and infrared light penetrate deep to open pores and flush toxins from within the cells, promoting faster healing and detoxification.
Sound waves and vibrations positively affect brainwaves, heart-rate variability, and stress levels for profound relaxation and healing.
Focus on vital energy points and meridians opens energy channels, restores flow, and supports the body's natural healing mechanisms.
The Treatments
A centuries-old Tamil healing art that works on the body's varmam points — the same pressure junctions used in traditional martial arts, applied here to release tension, restore energy flow, and relieve chronic pain without invasive technique.
A continuous, steady stream of warm herbal oil poured over the forehead and third-eye centre. One of Ayurveda's most recognised treatments for calming the nervous system, easing anxiety, and settling a racing mind into deep, still rest.
Warm herbal poultices — cloth pouches packed with medicinal leaves, powders, or rice, heated and massaged over the body. Used in classical Ayurveda to loosen stiff muscles, improve circulation, and draw out deep-seated tension.

Know Your Therapist
Kerala — 10+ Years in Ayurvedic Medicine & Treatment
Trained in Kerala's classical Ayurvedic lineage, Thomas brings over a decade of hands-on clinical experience to SomaVeda's treatment room. His practice is rooted in traditional diagnosis and therapeutic touch, applied here across our Shirodhara, Kizhi, and full-body Ayurvedic protocols — every session is adapted to what your body actually needs, not a fixed routine.
In Their Words
Thomas is a gifted healer with a rare intuition for what the body needs. I went in for a standard massage but came out feeling like my entire system had been reset. His deep work is intense but incredibly effective, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his clients' well-being. He's a true professional and a master of his craft. 5 stars isn't enough!
SinaSiav
Possibly the best massage of my life, and I'm not exaggerating. Thomas has incredible dedication and technique; every part of the massage felt purposeful and effective. The massage table has built-in sound and gentle vibration, which makes the whole experience even more immersive and amazing. Don't expect a soft, relaxing massage — there's a good amount of intensity, but for me, it was absolutely perfect. Highly recommend if you're in the area and want to treat yourself to something truly special.
Llorenc Pedrals Barba
Thomas is very good and professional. I think he is one of the best if not the best in Goa. I did a series of 10 abhyanga massages with him two years ago, and this year again. Feel completely refreshed. His technique is top notch. Highly recommend.
Lev Soloviev
I had an outstanding 150-minute Marma therapy (Varma Kalai) massage at Somaveda Wellness Studio in Mandrem, Goa, with Thomas. Using Ayurvedic oils he stimulated vital marma points — key energy centers in muscles, nerves, and joints — using precise pressure techniques.
I'll admit there was some intense but healing pain at those spots, releasing deep tension. But it was worth it — afterward, I felt light on my feet with renewed vitality and flexibility. A little bit about this therapy that I have since learnt: this traditional Ayurvedic treatment (developed for Kalaripayattu warriors) is designed for musculoskeletal pain relief, enhanced circulation, stress reduction, injury recovery, and immunity boost through balanced prana flow. Highly recommend Thomas for athletes or wellness seekers!
Wayne Bento
Thomas approaches his clients with the absolute care, attention, and focus of a master practitioner and someone practicing their true Dharma. There is nothing generic or commercial about his treatments; he is adeptly responsive to your body's individual design and tension to construct the most effective treatment on a custom basis. Definitely one of the best healing sessions I have ever received in my life, and I am an instant regular to Somaveda Wellness Studio!
Elle Olsztyn
Thomas gives the best massage I have experienced in my life and I'm not just saying that! Please go and try for yourself. He is also an amazing human with lots of wisdom. Very very highly recommended.
Beril Gun
I had several Marma therapies with Thomas and it was an amazing experience, I have never experienced anything better.

Before You Book
Most of our guests are first-timers. Every stay opens with a consultation where Thomas assesses your constitution and health goals before any protocol is chosen, so nothing is one-size-fits-all.
We keep cohorts small so treatments stay personal, which means seats fill quickly. We recommend booking at least 3–4 weeks ahead, especially for peak season dates.
Yes. Your quote gives you a starting point, and your treatment plan can be adjusted once you arrive based on Thomas's assessment and how your body responds.
Full refund up to 7 days before arrival. Inside 7 days, we'll work with you to reschedule to the next available cohort at no extra cost.
