Ayurveda is a system of healing from India that uses nature as medicine, both preventatively and curatively. It focuses on diet, herbal therapies, bodywork, and lifestyle to create conditions for optimal health. Ayurveda is personalized medicine, meaning that it uses a person’s unique story and history to create a specialized path and plan for healing.
