Trekker's Recovery Package
For the evening you get back from the mountain. The jeep from Siwai grinds into Lakeside around four, you drop the bag at the guesthouse, and your legs are ruined.
The package runs 2 hours 30 minutes and includes recovery assessment, deep recovery massage, kizhi poultice, padabhyanga, herbal steam & shower and recovery tea.
Introduction to services
Recovery assessment Route, days walked, and where it hurts.
Deep recovery massage 90 minutes focused on quads, calves, IT band and shoulders.
Kizhi poultice Heated herbal bundles on knees, ankles and lower back.
Padabhyanga 30-minute foot soak, kansa bowl work and reflexology.

Recovery tea Ginger, turmeric and honey for inflammation.
Techniques
The jeep from Siwai grinds into Lakeside around four, you drop the bag at the guesthouse, and your legs are ruined. This is the sequence we have refined over a decade of that exact evening: deep leg and back work, heated herbal poultices on knees and ankles, a long foot ritual, steam, and a hot shower before you go find dinner on the strip.

Questions
Before you book
Do you keep same-day slots for trekkers?
Yes. Two slots a day are held back until 16:00 for people who have just come off the Nayapul or Siwai jeep, or the Jomsom flight. Call or WhatsApp rather than emailing for those.
I have the Kathmandu bus tomorrow — is this a good idea?
It is a very good idea, and better tonight than tomorrow morning. Seven hours in a coach seat on freshly worked legs is the one combination to avoid, so if you are leaving early we go slightly lighter and add more lymphatic drainage — tell us at check-in.
Can I book for a group of four?
Yes — we can run four at once with advance notice, and there is a 10% group rate for four or more.
