I have been coming to Jiva for years and I absolutely love their massages! I particularly love the body scrub. The whole experience is great- a nice lemon water to start, really professional staff, lovely private cabins, and heaters and hot water bottles in the winter. The body scrub leaves you feeling lovely and soft. I would definitely recommend the scrub followed by massage for ultimate relaxation! :)

In 2017, after a 4 year yogic and spiritual journey, Omkara decided to begin his own school of Hatha Yoga and Meditation. Omkara felt great spiritual energy resounding from a beautiful hill just outside of Pokhara lakeside, which was chosen as an ideal location for the school. Surrounded by gorgeous mountains and overlooking the second largest lake in Nepal (Fewa Lake)

I can't say enough great things about Middle Path Spa! The location is perfect, the staff were incredible lovely people, the facilities are clean, comfortable, beautiful and tasteful. I was a solo female traveler and I felt so safe and comfortable every moment. I loved my room and the bed was super comfortable, with clean well maintained bathroom and SUPER hot shower was great! I indulged in the spa services and all the staff and massage therapist were super nice and well trained. The breakfast! Amazing! Top notch lattes and espresso guy could roll with the latte art and any world competition, haha! I ate dinner at the hotel twice because I was too lazy to go out, and the food was really good. I will definitely be back to Nepal, and I will definitely be staying at Middle Path! You just can't beat the price for what you get, I was totally blown away. It exceeded all my expectations. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

She explained the context and types of yoga, various physical movements and breathing exercises. We all enjoyed the experiencqe. Highly recommend her class if your interested at all in yoga!
