The word AYUR means life and VEDA means science
or knowledge and AYURVEDA is literally a life science. Here in
India, Ayurveda has been a way of life for many many years. It
is only in recent years that those of us who live outside of
India have been able to take advantage of this ancient and wise
science. Using all natural techniques and ingredients, Ayurveda
is a preventative healing science as well as being proven to
alleviate various symptoms through different treatment
programmes. Ayurvedia is an holistic science which works on all
parts of human life; physical, emotional and spiritual.
Ayurveda works using the ancient system of balance, working on
the knowledge that every being is made up of the 5 base
elements; EARTH, FIRE, WATER, AIR and SPACE. If we are to live
balanced lives, these 5 elements must be in harmony and Ayurveda
brings all these into equilibrium to enable us to live a healthy
life inside and out, physically and emotionally.
Ayurveda differs from every day medicine as each client is
looked at in their physical and emotional state before any kind
of treatment is given. Our Ayurvedic Doctor will prescribe a
programme of treatment for the client given their symptoms and
circumstances. Programmes can be tailor made to any length of
time and clients will be fully supported by a special ayurvedic
diet which also forms a significant part of the healing process.
