Introduction to Ayurvedic Medicine

Ayurveda, an ancient holistic approach to wellness, originated in India over 5,000 years ago. The concept of Ayurveda is natural and simple – it is based on the principles of living in harmony with the cycles and rhythms of nature while balancing the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of life.

According to Ayurveda, health exists when there is a balance between the five great elements of earth, air, fire, water and ether, and the doshas, biological energies that are believed to govern the physiology, psychology and energies of the body.
