| Ayurveda
is a health science, the oldest and most complete healing system known
today. The word Ayurveda, derived from 2 sanskrit terms, literally
means: the knowledge of life. At the heart of Ayurveda lies the concept
of 3 ‘doshas’: Vatha, Pitha and Kapha, . These doshas are present
in everyone and the predominance of one over another determines ones
body type and constitution. Balancing the three harmoniously will promote
a healthy body and mind. India’s Sages prescribed Ayurveda several millennia
ago and it is now gaining in popularity throughout the West, as its
systems are more |
|
| relevant than ever in treating the diseases of the
modern age. This holistic treatment involves various types of massage
and oil applications, inhalations, diet, and natural medicines as required.
Treatment plans are as individual as people. |
