Ayurveda – Science of Life

Ayurveda is an ancient tradition of health care that has been practiced in India for at least five thousand years. The term derives from the words ayur (life) and veda (knowledge) in Sanskrit.

Although Ayurveda or Ayurvedic medicine has been documented many centuries earlier in the sacred historical texts known as the Vedas, Ayurveda has developed over the years and is now combined with other traditional methods, including yoga and naturopathy. Rig, Sama, Yajur and Atharva Veda (Ayurveda meaning The Science of Life is a subsection of the Atharva Veda) are the four primary Vedas. 
It is based on the belief that a sensitive equilibrium between mind, body, and spirit depends on health and wellness.

The curative aspect of Ayurveda is highly personalised, which means that the medications can not be always generalised against certain conditions or diseases. The treatment is based on each person's imbalances (called vikṛti) of the body and also the body constitution (prakṛti) generally determined by the‘ vāta',‘ pitta' and‘ kapha' balances.

Ayurveda can be widely split into eight branches, although none of these systems stand independently and the principles of Ayurveda are always holistic, they are not reduced to structures or organs and specializations.

Ayurveda's wide divisions include Kāyacikitsā — General Medicine, Kaumāra-bhtya — Pediatrics, Šalyatantra — Surgery, Šālākyatantra — ENT, Bhūtavidyā — Psychiatry, Agadatantra — Toxicology, Rasāyanatantra — Body Rejuvenation, and Vājīkara falatantra — Aphrodisiac treatment.

Ayurveda's knowledge was passed on orally through a lineage of sages in India until more than five thousand years ago it was collated into text. Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and Ashtanga Hrudaya are the earliest known texts on Ayurveda. These texts detail the effect that the five elements found in the cosmic system— earth, water, air, fire, space — have on our individual system, Then illustrate the importance of balancing certain elements to a balanced then happy life. This is because of their natural constitution, or their prakriti.

In contrast to other medicinal technologies, Ayurveda is more focused on healthy living than on disease therapy. Ayurveda's primary idea is that it customizes the healing process.


The human body is comprised of four basics, the dosha, dhatu, mala and agni, according to Ayurveda. All these basics of the body in Ayurveda are of enormous importance. These are also referred to as the' Mool Siddhant' or the' Ayurvedic therapy basics.'

By knowing our natural constitutional characteristics, we are better prepared to do what is required to maintain us in balance.

Ayurveda 's system not only promotes your physical well-being and good health but also aims to improve your spiritual well-being. Ayurveda presents a structure through which our behaviors can be reworked to improve our bodily functions. This age-old practice of healing uses natural herbs and oils which are both of great medicinal importance. The produced systems go back to more than 5000 years of wisdom passed down through the Vedas. The guidelines given in these texts talk of illnesses with a number of treatments including massages, herbal remedies, a healthy diet, and the correct form of exercise. In the new world and contemporary habits both of these are very relevant.

Ayurveda is a treatment system which helps you age graciously while being the epitome of good physical health.
