在世界主流水療理念中，印度水療自成一派。提到印度水療，又不得不提“阿育吠陀”（Ayurveda）這個詞。阿育吠陀是梵文，原意為“生命科學(xué)”，是5000多年前在古印度圣人之間發(fā)展而成的比較全面的治愈系統(tǒng)，其理念貫穿于瑜伽、按摩及草藥的利用等。如今，“阿育吠陀”不僅是一門醫(yī)學(xué)體系，更代表著一種健康的生活方式。作為印度名聲顯赫的酒店集團，歐貝羅伊集團（The Oberoi Group）為賓客提供獨具阿育吠陀特色的個性化水療服務(wù)，進(jìn)而形成印度水療中最具代表性的派系。

The word \"Ayurveda\"has to be mentioned when it comes to Indian spas. Ayurveda meaning \"the science of life\" is an ancient healing tradition that seeks to achieve an optimum balance within the mind， body and spirit. It is a holistic system of healing which evolved among the sages of ancient India over 5，000 years ago. As one of India’s big-name hotel groups， the Oberoi Spa takes advantage of Ayurveda， provideing unusual personalized spa services.
