Ayurveda, “The knowledge of longevity”, is the Traditional Indian medicine.

You will you will be seduced by the natural approach to health and its philosophy. And you will definitely understand from a new perspective how your body works

Ayurveda is based on

• the principal of CAUSE to EFFECT. Finding the cause of symptoms allow to eliminate or reduce them ; and avoid the symptoms to come back in the future.
• the fact that each of us is born with a particular constitution for life (Prakriti), and we have to do with it.
• Everything is interdependent
• Our Prakriti does not change but we are in a continuous change ! Due to the environment, the state of mind, the climate, the activities, the way we are eating, what we are eating, the quantity eaten…
• The 5 elements (Ether, Air, Fire, Water, Earth) are the base of everything : that means in particular, in each of us in different quantities (Doshas) and in everything we eat.
• Everything is constantly in movement so you always have the possibility to change
• IF YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR CONSTITUTION, YOU WILL KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF TO KEEP YOUR BALANCE & HARMONY. And if a unbalance appear, you will know which treatment is adapted.

How does an Ayurvedic consultation go?

This means that the first part of the consultation is devoted to understanding WHO is the person present: constitution from birth, imbalance that has occurred, digestion and assimilation of food. This will induce:
– observations of the person’s physique (height, frame, skin, hair, face, hands, age…)
– questions about the functioning of person’s body and the feelings about blood circulation, joints, sensitivity to the environment, sleep, resistance and tendency to disease
– questions about food (appetite, digestive disorders, eating habits and attractions, food sensitivities)
– questions about mental functioning (emotional reactions, relationships to people or objects)
– questions about body waste (stool, urine, sweating, menstruation)
– Tongue observation
– Taking the pulse

In the second part of the interview, the practitioner will focus on symptoms themselves: where precisely, when, for how long, any known origin…

In Ayurveda, ROUTINE (Dinacharya) is an essential component in restoring balance to the body. So, do not be surprised that the first thing proposed is, most of the time, to change your lifestyle (food, mealtime, way of eating, physical exercise, sleep, self-massage …) and to establish a routine that is better suited to your constitution.

Ayurveda will in no way replace medical consultations.
