Session Reminder 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 the evening before each session. 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)
Reminder: {#var#}, your {#var#} session at [Business Name] is tomorrow at {#var#}. Reply if you need to change the time.International (plain text)
Reminder: {client}, your {therapy} session at [Business Name] is tomorrow at {time}. Reply if you need to change the time.Example with sample values
Reminder: Sunita, your physiotherapy session at [Business Name] is tomorrow at 8:00 AM. Reply if you need to change the time.
With these sample values the message is 127 characters in the standard GSM-7 character set, which is 1 SMS part (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
| Placeholder | Meaning | Sample value |
|---|---|---|
| {#var#} | Client | Sunita |
| {#var#} | Therapy | physiotherapy |
| {#var#} | Time | 8:00 AM |
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.
- Therapy (sample: physiotherapy): Keep the value short and specific; test the longest realistic value to check the message still reads well.
- Time (sample: 8:00 AM): Give times with AM/PM or a clear range, and the time zone if the customer may be in another country.
This template has 3 placeholders and a body of 122 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
- Any link uses a domain whitelisted for your header, as TRAI requires for URLs in commercial SMS.
- 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.
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
- Use the customer's name and a reference number so the message is easy to trust and to search for later.
- Send it as close as possible to the event it relates to, such as right after booking or the day before an appointment.
Where this message fits for Ayurveda & Wellness Centres
Wellness customers often discover a centre through social media, recommendations or travel searches, read about treatments and practitioners' training, and ask detailed questions about programmes, duration and diet before booking. Many return for seasonal therapies or buy products online after a visit.
Instagram and YouTube educate potential clients about treatments; search brings people looking for specific therapies; WhatsApp answers questions and confirms bookings; email shares seasonal routines and programme dates; SMS sends appointment reminders.
Campaign ideas that pair with this template
- Seasonal detox or rejuvenation programme launches with early-booking offers
- Educational posts about a different therapy each week
- Post-programme follow-ups with diet tips and product reorder links

Questions About This Template
When should a wellness centre send the session reminder message?
Send the evening before each session. 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.
Which DLT category should I choose for this session reminder message?
Usually Service Implicit. The final category depends on your entity type, the consent you hold and your operator's guidelines, and we confirm it during registration.
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.
