Herbs, special food and lifestyle, oil treatments and other modalities help bring harmony and equilibrium to the life-long imbalances created by changes in seasons, life events, food, stresses and work.

The beauty of Ayurvedic medicine is in its personal approach and deep understanding of early stages of imbalances. When Western medicine ‘waits’ for more symptoms, Ayurvedic medicine is already able to treat the early changes and thus, prevent advanced diseases.  You may be able to resume balance and harmony with adjustment of food and lifestyle. Or you may benefit from Ayurvedic herbs, oil treatments, yoga, meditation and pranayama (healing breathing exercises).

Ayurvedic evaluation looks at your genetic constitution, present state of imbalance, social issues, and your emotional and physical condition. It recognizes the importance of spirituality, lifestyle, and stress in our ability to live a healthy & happy life.

Part of the Ayurvedic diagnosis is clarifying a balance or imbalance in our constitution. From observation of nature we know that there are five elements in all  creation: earth, water, fire, air and space (ether).

Ayurveda goes further to say that we all have a unique composition of three characters, orDosha in Sanskrit: Vata, Pitta or Kapha.

VATA dosha  has the qualities of wind, air & ether.

PITTA dosha has the qualities of heat, sun, fire, & metabolism.

KAPHA dosha has the qualities of water and earth, love and grounding.
