Ayurveda

Ayurveda, the traditional medical system of India, is the world's oldest system of natural medicine and the original mind-body science dating back over 5,000 years.  There is currently an upsurge of interest in Ayurvedic medicine in North America, both among health professionals and the general public.  Ayurveda offers an extensive, individualized approach to the prevention of disease, not typically found in conventional medicine.  In addition, Ayurveda has a holistic approach to the treatment of chronic disease that includes mind, body, behavior, and environment.  Ayurveda also uses classical pulse diagnosis that can be readily applied in a contemporary setting. 

The word Ayurveda comes from two Sanskrit words: Ayus, meaning life or life span, and Veda, meaning knowledge or science. Ayurveda covers the major branches of medicine under much the same headings as conventional allopathic medicine, though with a preventative and holistic orientation. 

Ayurveda uses Diet, Lifestyle, Herbal remedies, and Ayurvedic body treatments to re-establish balance in a person's unique body/mind constitution. 

Ayurveda understands the importance of nature and our place in it, aligning the body's natural rhythms with the natural circadian rhythms of nature.
