Integrative Ayureveda
Ayurveda simply means the science of life. It is a comprehensive natural healthcare system that originated in India. The evidence of early Āyurveda texts date back to 800-500 BC, however many of its fundamental principles are mentioned much earlier in the Holy Scriptures and literature of ancient India.
In 1948, the World health organization defined health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Since then, due to the changes in population and disease patterns, it has been argued that the emphasis should be on adaptations and self management in the presence of physical, social and emotional challenges (Huber et al, British Medical Journal. July 2011). It is only since the past twenty five years or so that the conventional western medicine has begun to address the “bio psycho social” model of health care as opposed to “bio medical “ model.
In contrast, by its very name Āyurveda is life oriented rather than disease oriented.
