About Ayurveda
Ayurveda
is a sanskrit word which means the science
of life. It is the 5000 year-old natural healing
system of India, and the sister science of
Yoga. Ayurveda offers a prevention oriented
holistic approach to health. It is recognized
by the World Health Organization as a safe
and effective traditional healthcare system.
According to Ayurveda, optimal health is a
state in which body, mind, spirit and the senses
are in perfect balance, while disease is a
symptom of an underlying imbalance. Ayurveda
views each person as a unique combination of
three different functional principles of energies
which govern all our physical, physiological
and psychological processes. These energies
are known as VATA, PITTA and KAPHA.
Optimal health is the result of a perfect
balance between Vata, Pitta and Kapha. However
they can be pushed out of balance by such factors
as environment, trauma, lifestyle, diet, stress
and other causes. Hence the goal of Ayurvedic
treatment is to help the individual re-establish
harmony within themselves and with their environment
so that the body and mind can heal themselves.
As everyone is composed of a unique combination
of vata, pitta and kapha with different imbalances,
each individual's path towards re-establishing
balance and optimal health will be unique.
