1. Meditation hall
2. Contemplation space
It only requires a silent place or hidden niche somewhere.
4. Dance floor
There are different types of therapies and therefore the furnishings of rooms differ
depending on the therapy offered. A typical treatment room will, however, have a single
piece wooden tabletop called the “Adoni” to give Ayurvedic massage therapy. Each
room also has its own private steam box connected to a central steam generator. The
rooms also have their own attached private bath or shower rooms.
7. Training area
Different kinds of therapeutic and recreational exercises will take place here. This might
include running, walking, weight lifting, cardio, and stretching exercises.
These rooms should have enough room for adequate circulation of visitors and
physicians/ trainers around the exercise and therapy machines.
There should be adequate storage for equipment and supplies. The space should be
flexible to accommodate changes in therapy requirements.
The gym or exercise rooms should be joined to outdoor spaces for activities that
require them.
8. Workshops
Practices like music therapy , art therapies , pottery or weaving requires huge space
with ample amount of natural light with the traces of nature.
Semi open space would be ideal with double height ceiling that promotes creative
thinking.
Secondary Activity Spaces
ENTRY/RECEPTION
This space should be separated from the primary therapeutic areas of the center, but
adjacent to the business offices and restrooms.
The entry and waiting portions of this space should include natural elements such as
plants, natural light, viewto exterior spaces, and water to help establish a level of
comfort within the facility.
Consultation rooms
Consultation room should accommodate 2-5 people at the same time and should have
seating areas for client/physician consultations.
There should be enough space to allow for extended periods of occupation for any
client who needs it for counseling purposes. They should provide accommodations for
reclining and interacting with the attending physician.
The exam rooms should provide ample space for physical, emotional, and psychological
exams to be administered to clients.
Dining Area
If people are spending nights, there needs to be a full service kitchen and dining area;
complete with refrigerator, freezer, services/deliveries, dry storage, office, and of course
the kitchen itself including: food prep, cooking, serving, staging and dishwashing.
A large dining hall would be able to accommodate all guests, and by including an
adjacent patio/lawn to dine outdoors when the weather is nice would be the perfect
touch.
The activity area should have areas of differing heights to delineate spaces for different
functions, to provide visual interest through spatial design, and to provide alternative
routes through the space.
