What are ayurvedic treatments?

Treatment depends on your nature at the time of conception, your primary dosha, and the current state of imbalance in an individual dosha bringing back the balance between all three of them(doshas).  Therefore an important goal of Ayurveda is to identify a person’s ideal state of balance, determine where they are out of balance, and offer interventions using diet, herbs, aromatherapy, massage treatments, music, and meditation to reestablish balance.

 

The three doshas are derived from the five elements—Ether & Air(Vata), Fire & Water(Pitta), and Water & Earth(Kapha). These are known as mind-body types and express a unique blend of physical, emotional, and mental characteristics. 

In Ayurveda, health is defined as a balance between mind, body, and surroundings.
