Ayurveda is an ancient system of mind-body medicine, or “behavioral medicine”, which originated as a form of healthcare in India over 5,000 years ago. Ayur (life), veda (science) translates to the science of life.
Through its both sophisticated and yet simple prescriptions, Ayurveda has been touted the “mother of all healing medicines” and akin to our understanding of modern day genetics. Quite unlike the modern model of allopathic medicine, which subscribes to the notion that “health is the absence of disease”, Ayurveda promotes the position that “disease is the absence of vibrant health”.
“When diet is wrong, medicine is of no use; when diet is correct, medicine is of no need.” – Ayurvedic Proverb
Why might you need an Ayurvedic Consultation?
Consultation consists of assessment, Ayurvedic Pulse Diagnosis, and lifestyle mind/body prescriptions to enhance vitality and reduce symptoms. The outcome of an Ayurvedic program will be a deep understanding of one’s “mind-body type” and subsequent lifestyle prescriptions to balance the system and enhance well being.
