Spiritual well being and physical fitness are the main aim
of all ayurveda cures. Ayurveda therapies in India trace their
origin to olden times when man turned to nature for health
remedies. Though the science is more than 10,000 years old,
the earliest written texts on ayurveda were written as far
back as 6000 years.
All herbal ayurveda therapies in India begin with the identification
of individual body type based on which the condition or ailment
is diagnosed. The advised cured is almost always an entire
package that goes on for a long time.
A holistic cure system, ayurveda traces the root cause of
the disease, cures it and ensures that the condition does
not relapse again through a system of carefully managed diet,
yogic exercises and meditation.
All ayurveda therapies are based on the simple belief that
all living things in the Universe are made of air, water,
fire, earth and ether. Ayurveda cures reflect an ancient understanding
of a human being's existence, his work, lifestyle, environment,
spiritual life, relationships etc.
Sights, sounds, smells and sensations influence an individual's
physical and mental state to a great extent and that in turn
effects one's health.
Natural cures, yogic remedies, soothing music, naturally
soothing environment, plant herbs, oils, aromatherapy, gem
stones, cleansing cures and counseling form an integral part
of ayurveda therapies that heal, refresh and invigorate.
