::Ayurveda::

Ayurveda started more than 5000 years ago. There are glimpses of Ayurvedic treatments and medicines in various ancient scripts.The word Ayurveda is derived from two words - Ayu meaning life and Veda meaning knowledge or science. It literally means knowledge about life.

The formation of living organisms is described in the principles of Ayurveda.The focus is on obtaining a balance among the Tridhoshas, i.e. Vatha, Pitha and Kapha. Illness is the result of imbalance of the Tridhoshas.

Like modern medicine, Ayurveda is also divided into several important branches of treatment dealing with various human aspects. Each branch follows various methods for regenerating the equilibrium of body, mind and soul.
