Ayurveda, the ancient system of medicine originating in India over 5,000 years ago, focuses on achieving balance between the body, mind, and spirit. Unlike modern medicine which often targets symptoms, Ayurveda addresses the root cause of illness. Based on the principles of the three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—Ayurveda believes that health is maintained when these doshas are in harmony. Personalized treatment plans are developed according to an individual’s body constitution (Prakriti) and current imbalances.
