Ayurveda

"The Science of Life"

Ayurvedic medicine (“Ayurveda” for short) is one of the world’s oldest holistic (whole-body) healing systems aimed to prevent and heal disease or imbalances within the body. It’s based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body, and spirit. The foundation of Ayurveda resides in the belief that five master elements (space, air, fire, water and earth) comprise everything within and outside of our bodies and create three primary patterns known as doshas:

• Vata movement and change in our body and mind (space, air)

• Pitta regulates digestion and metabolism (fire, water)

• Kapha protects the integrity and structure of our body and mind (water, earth)

Every individual has a unique quantity and quality of each Dosha and underlying elements. It is important to maintain their original state of balance as it is how the body stays healthy. An Ayurvedic consultation can be used to determine your Dosha and explain how to bring yourself into balance.
