The Foundation
Ayurveda is a holistic healing system rooted in ancient Indian wisdom. As a comprehensive healing practice, Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of balance among the mind, body, and spirit for optimal health. Imbalance or stress is believed to be linked to the onset of diseases.
Ayurveda is a holistic healing system that originated in India over 5,000 years ago.
Ayurveda is based on the idea that the universe comprises five elements: air, water, space, earth, and fire. These elements are thought to form the three basic humors of the human body in different combinations. Ayurveda also holds that good health comes from harmony between the mind, body, and spirit, and that imbalance or stress can lead to disease.
Ayurvedic treatments include lifestyle changes, natural remedies, therapies, and massages. Treatments often begin with purification and may involve special diets, herbal remedies, yoga, and meditation.
Ayurvedic practitioners assess a patient’s health through observation, questioning, physical exams, and various other readings.
