What Is Ayurvedic Medicine?
Ayurveda is a traditional system of health and wellbeing that originated in South Asia. Ayurvedic practice may include attention to diet, daily routine, lifestyle, herbs, oils and other traditional preparations according to the individual.
Traditional Herbs
Ayurvedic tradition uses a wide variety of plant-based ingredients. Their traditional uses and suitability can vary considerably from person to person.
Traditional Formulations
Classical and regional Ayurvedic traditions use combinations of ingredients rather than assuming that one herb or product is suitable for everyone.
Personalised Guidance
Individual circumstances such as lifestyle, existing health conditions, medicines, allergies and other factors should be considered before using herbal preparations.
