Kaivalyadhama, officially the Kaivalyadhama Health and Yoga Research Centre, is a spiritual, therapeutic, and research centre founded by Swami Kuvalayananda in 1924. It aims to coordinate ancient yogic arts and tradition with modern science. Kuvalayananda founded the journal Yoga Mimamsa at the same time. Kaivalyadhama is in Lonavla, Maharashtra, India, with smaller branches elsewhere in India, France, and the United States.

Kaivalyadhama performs scientific and "philosophico-literary" (Sanskrit studies of yoga texts) research, and provides Yogic and Ayurvedic healthcare and education. It houses a Naturopathy center and hosts some 250 students per year for its various courses. Students come from India and abroad, primarily from China, Japan, Korea, France, United States, and Canada.

Kaivalyadhama is a public charitable trust which receives some funding from the Government of India.
