Shankara Ayurveda Wellness Spa

As part of a retreat for my wife and I, we arrived to start with services from this center, namely a massage. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and the GM interacted with us as well and was so welcoming and friendly. The massages my wife and I received were excellent and just the way to start a weekend retreat. Reservations as early as possible are recommended to ensure you get the service(s) that you want. Highly recommend taking advantage of the offerings here!

The spa offers a few wellness services. I found the massages to be on the light side. I did enjoy the warm oil treatment. The spa is located on the AOLRC campus and provides services that are aligned with the philosophy of the wellness center. The spa is well-appointed and the staff are professional.

The Shankara wellness spa offers a plethora of Ayurvedic Massages, Craniosacral therapy, Floatation tank for deprivation of the senses, Marma therapy and a variety of other relaxing treatments. Its a perfect wellness retreat getaway. Its in the campus of the Art of living retreat center in Boone, North Carolina. The staff at the reception, the massage therapists- they are extremely helpful and cordial. The treatment rooms are hygienic, clean and spacious. They use Shankara oils which are natural, organic and of supreme quality. The view from there is breathtaking! The therapies are highly relaxing.

We ate one breakfast at the Art of Living Retreat and it was very yummy - vegetarian. There isn't really a fully staff on site the entire time but that was fine except for a door key that became demagnetized in my purse, but we had a spare. Bare in mind, this is not like an average hotel in that you don't have a fridge and your

As soon as I arrived, I was greeted with many smiling faces. This stay was my second stay in two years and I have never been disappointed. This property has a magical charm and always seems to find the friendliest of staff. The views of the sunrises/sunsets are incredible at the Spa and on top of Boone, NC. The Ayurveda teas offered throughout the property are delicious and was a nice added touch too.||||The Spa experience was very unique and was one of my best experiences ever. I was pampered from head-to-toe. They offer many different experiences including Ayurveda Treatments. After your treatment, be sure to jump in the steam room to further your relaxation. ||||My visit this time was a yoga and spa retreat. My awesome Yoga instructor's name was Xiomara.
