What Our Patients Say
Hear directly from individuals who found renewed balance and well-being at Sanapurna Med. Their stories reflect our commitment to personalized, compassionate care.
"Sanapurna is one of the best places for yoga in Zurich. I like its authenticity and that is really rooted in the Hatha tradition. Also the Ayurveda approach is wonderful & you can get very good Ayurvedic massages. Very good quality of teachings and people. A place not to be missed"
Victoria"I booked a massage with Ana Vilar and then an nutrition consultation and it was a very nice and helpful experience. The massage with warm oil is so beneficial, especially in the winter time. Ana also helped me find out solutions for my digestive issues and my general health. I'm now following her tips on a daily basis and feel much more grounded, I have more energy and managed to change my eating habits for the best!"
Marie Seidel"This is my recommended place for Ayurvedic treatments (Abhyanga, Shirodhara) in Zurich as it is always very professional and I completely trust the therapists. I had a massage with Ana which was very relaxing and I felt in the hands of a knowledgable professional. I enjoyed the short consultation beforehand, the massage and the amenities afterwards (warm shower, hair dryer, tea (if we are not in a pandemic)). They use organic products from the medicated oils used for the massages to the soap in the showers. I always feel welcome and well looked after."
