How Does Ayurveda Work?
Ayurveda is India’s ancient science of life and longevity and is the therapeutic branch of Yoga. Its holistic approach looks at each person as an individual with their own unique body-type (prakruti) and current health condition (vikruti). It aims to restore imbalances and promote the flow of prana or vital energy in the body-mind.
Here at the Ayurvedic Wellness Centre we offer many options for you to explore on your journey to self-nurturing and healing.
Stand Alone Ayurvedic Treatments
We will ask you to fill out a simple questionnaire to determine your dosha or body-type and current imbalance. This will be followed by an Ayurvedic treatment of your choice using oils and techniques most beneficial for you.
Ayurvedic Body Treatment Packages
Our pre-designed Ayurvedic Treatment Packages (of 3, 7 and 14 treatments) are targeted at achieving specific goals like weight loss, beauty, healing or vitality. These packages include an optional 1 hour therapy consultation involving diagnosis and additional lifestyle recommendations to maximise the benefits provided by the treatment package.
Ayurvedic Consultation
In collaboration with Dr. Shaun Matthews, the centre offers the services of an Ayurvedic consultation and may include an optional customised package of treatments specifically designed for your needs.
The personal consultation may involve the ancient technique of pulse or tongue diagnosis as well as examination of your eyes, nails, tongue, skin and voice. You will be asked a series of questions that will help determine your dosha (body-type) and your current imbalances.
In keeping with Ayurveda’s integrated approach, recommendations may include dietary and lifestyle changes, Ayurvedic herbal remedies, detoxification treatments (Panchakarma), Rejuvenation treatments (Rasayana), meditation and yoga.
