What is Ayurvedic
Ayuveda is a system of medicine that originated in India thousands of years ago. The word ‘Ayurveda’ is made up of two Sanskrit words ‘Ayus’ that means ‘life and ‘veda’ that means ‘science or ‘knowledge’.
Ayurveda is more than just a medical system. It is the knowledge (Science) of life and life is composed of mind, body, spirit & soul. Apart from being a healing system it also provides guidance regarding our diets and our lifestyles that helps in keeping us healthy and in balance in our every day lives.
