A Luxurious Wellness Retreat at Raffles Udaipur
Nestled amidst the serene beauty of Udai Sagar Lake and the majestic Aravalli hills, Raffles Udaipur recently welcomed renowned holistic healer Dr Hetalkumar Doshi for an exclusive wellness residency from 7 May 2026 to 10 June 2026. The immersive wellness experience offered guests an opportunity to reconnect with their mind, body and spirit through a carefully curated healing journey.
With wellness tourism rapidly growing in India, the collaboration between Raffles Udaipur and Dr Hetalkumar Doshi highlighted the rising demand for luxury wellness experiences that combine holistic therapies with world-class hospitality.
Who is Dr Hetalkumar Doshi?
Dr Hetalkumar Doshi is an internationally recognised holistic healer, acupuncturist, naturopath and Reiki Grand Master with more than 32 years of experience in the wellness industry. As the Founder of Energy Masters, he is widely known for his practical and transformative approach towards holistic healing.
His philosophy centres around identifying and treating the root causes of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual imbalances rather than simply managing symptoms. Drawing inspiration from the five natural elements — earth, water, fire, air and ether — Dr Hetalkumar helps individuals restore harmony and achieve overall wellbeing.
Adding to his global expertise, Dr Hetalkumar has previously worked with guests at several leading luxury resorts in the Maldives, offering premium wellness consultations and healing therapies.
The Energy Masters Wellness Experience
During his residency at Raffles Udaipur, Dr Hetalkumar introduced guests to the exclusive “Energy Masters Wellness Experience”, a thoughtfully designed programme focused on his signature Four-Dimensional Healing Journey.
The wellness programme aimed to create balance across four essential dimensions of wellbeing:
- Physical wellness
- Mental wellness
- Emotional wellness
- Spiritual wellness
Guests experienced a range of personalised therapies and healing sessions tailored to their individual wellness needs. The treatments included:
- Acupuncture
- Acupressure
- Reiki healing
- Breathwork sessions
- Sound healing therapies
- Naturopathy treatments
Each session was customised to help guests relax, heal and reconnect with themselves in a peaceful and luxurious setting.
Personalised Wellness Consultations
One of the highlights of the experience was the complimentary 10–15 minute consultation offered by Dr Hetalkumar Doshi to every guest. These consultations helped identify individual concerns and wellness goals, allowing therapies to be tailored accordingly.
Guests also participated in guided meditation sessions conducted every morning and evening. These calming sessions provided a mindful start to the day and a deeply restorative experience before nightfall.
The Four-Dimensional Healing Journey was offered as a structured paid wellness programme for guests seeking a more immersive and transformative healing experience.
