Diet and Routine Guidelines Shared SMS Template for Ayurveda & Wellness Centres

A ready-to-adapt SMS message for Ayurveda and wellness centres, with placeholders, sample values and compliance notes.

When to Send This Message

Send after the practitioner shares a diet or routine plan. For Ayurveda and wellness centres, this is one of the everyday messages that keeps clients informed without a phone call. It can be sent manually from a panel at first and automated later through an API.

Programmes run over days or weeks, so scheduling and reminder messages are central.

The SMS Template

India (DLT format)

Header: [6-character header]-S · Category: Service Implicit

Dear {#var#}, the diet and daily routine guidelines suggested by {#var#} are available here: {#var#}. Please follow them as advised and contact us with any questions.

International (plain text)

Dear {client}, the diet and daily routine guidelines suggested by {practitioner} are available here: {link}. Please follow them as advised and contact us with any questions.

Example with sample values

Dear Sunita, the diet and daily routine guidelines suggested by Vaidya Joshi are available here: https://example.com/d/AW3. Please follow them as advised and contact us with any questions.

With these sample values the message is 188 characters in the standard GSM-7 character set, which is 2 SMS parts (square brackets count as two characters each). Long links or local-language (Unicode) text increase the count, as Unicode SMS allow 70 characters per single part.

Replace [Business Name] with your registered brand name. Links shown use example.com as a placeholder; use your own domain.

Placeholders and Sample Values

PlaceholderMeaningSample value
{#var#}ClientSunita
{#var#}PractitionerVaidya Joshi
{#var#}Linkhttps://example.com/d/AW3

Filling in each placeholder

  • Client (sample: Sunita): Use the first name or the salutation the customer gave you; fall back to a neutral greeting if the field is empty.
  • Practitioner (sample: Vaidya Joshi): Keep the value short and specific; test the longest realistic value to check the message still reads well.
  • Link (sample: https://example.com/d/AW3): Use your own short, recognisable domain; for SMS in India the domain must be whitelisted on DLT, and each variable is usually limited to 30 characters.

This template has 3 placeholders and a body of 173 characters before values are filled in. Shorter messages cost less and are more likely to be read in full; aim to keep the filled-in message within one or two SMS parts.

Category and Approval

In India this type of message is usually registered as Service Implicit: it relates to an existing transaction or relationship and can be delivered to numbers on the DND registry. It must not contain promotional content.

Compliance Checklist

  • The brand name in the message matches your registered business or header.
  • Promotional versions are sent only within the permitted hours and only to recipients who have not opted out.
  • The header (sender ID) and the template are registered on a DLT platform, and the template text matches exactly, apart from the variables.

Rules to keep in mind for Ayurveda & Wellness Centres

AYUSH advertising is restricted: the Drugs and Magic Remedies Act and the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules (including Rule 170 for AYUSH medicines) prohibit misleading claims, and the courts have taken a firm view on ads that promise cures. We write content about therapies and experience, not guaranteed outcomes.

General guidance, not legal advice. Rules change, so confirm current requirements before launch. See our SMS compliance guide for India.

Tips for Better Results

  • Send it as close as possible to the event it relates to, such as right after booking or the day before an appointment.
  • Keep one purpose per message; if you need to send a reminder and a document, the reminder should still make sense on its own.

Questions About This Template

When should a wellness centre send the diet and routine guidelines shared message?

Send after the practitioner shares a diet or routine plan. If customers reply, make sure someone on your team monitors and answers.

Can I send this SMS in India without DLT registration?

No. Commercial SMS in India must use a header and a content template registered on a DLT platform. Messages that do not match a registered template are blocked by the operator.

What does {#var#} mean?

It marks the variable part of a DLT template, such as a name, date or amount. Everything outside the variables must be sent exactly as registered.

Can DND Teams set this up for my wellness centre?

Yes. We adapt the template to your business, register or submit it, and connect it to your software or our panel. Share your use case on WhatsApp or through the form.
