How Ayurveda treatment restores health?

Ayurveda believes that total health can be achieved by restoring the balance, through a vast array of preventive and rejuvenative practices :

• lifestyle and dietary recommendations,

• bodywork therapies,

• herbal medicine remedies and tonics,

• detoxification regimens,

• exercises and

• mental health practices.

  All of these are individually tailored according to person’s unique constitution to maximize benefit .

How Ayurveda bodywork therapies work?

Ayurveda bodywork therapies include energy balancing massages, therapeutic massages and other relaxation-rejuvenation treatments like Shirodhara.

Medicated oils along with specific strokes help to balance energy flows and also guide aggravated doshas from organs and tissues to GI track for elimination, restoring balance.

How Ayurveda herbal remedies work?

Ayurveda uses natural gateways of the body to administer herbal medicines. The most common gateway is skin which has millions of pores or gates to allow entry of herbal medicines inside the body. Many a times some vehicles like oil or ghee are used to facilitate entry of herbs in the body.

Ayurveda uses the natural bodily channels to carry these medicines to affected body parts, in the same way the bodily channels and intelligence digest the food and carry the relevant nutrients extracted from food to corresponding organs, in various forms as required by those organs.

With Cellular Intelligence present in every cell, each cell not only communicates to other cell, but also chooses its appropriate nutrients e.g. red blood cells choose haemoglobin or iron molecules, bone cells choose Calcium-magnesium-zinc molecules and so on.

Isn’t it truly fascinating that our body performs so many functions so accurately, ceaselessly and without we being aware?

Why dietary changes are required?

“We modern humans dig our grave with fork and knife”

Someone famous said this when mentioning importance of diet. Literally, we become what we eat and also, what we don’t excrete. Food we eat is main source for our growth- good, wholesome, natural, well-cooked foods promote growth. Processed foods with lots of additives harm health- it’s well proven fact now. So everyday choices about where we put our fork and knife matter for our health in long term.

What is Ayurvedic detoxification?

The undigested components in our food create toxins, called as ‘ama’ in Ayurveda. Thes etoxins accumulate in weaker areas of the body, forming root of many disease conditions. Ayurveda lifestyle and dietary changes are designed to eliminate these toxins and facilitate their expulsion through excretion.

Why lifestyle changes matter?

Our body is part of the nature- seasonal changes affect us. One of the keys to restore health is to adjust our lifestyle to sync with seasons and our basic constitution. Once we are in sync inside-out, it becomes easier for the body to heal itself.

Importance of exercises

Countless research is now available which confirms importance of daily exercises on maintaining good health. Ayurveda recommends light exercises like walking, swimming, cycling than high impact exercises.

Why mental health practices are necessary?

Ayurveda included concept of ‘mind’ in health thousands of years before western medicine introduced Psychology. Ayurveda further formulated many tools to facilitate good mental health- a healthy state of a well functioning mind. These tools include various meditation, reflection and spiritual techniques to manage daily challenges in short term and promote mental wellbeing in long term.
