The traditional system of medicine in India, Ayurveda is a complete holistic approach to maintaining health and wellbeing. The term Ayurveda is derived from the ancient Sanskrit words ‘Ayu’ meaning ‘life’ or ‘longevity’ and ‘Veda’ meaning ‘knowledge’ or ‘science’.
Ayurveda is grounded in the belief that health and wellness are dependent on a delicate balance between mind, body and spirit. It combines diet, herbal remedies, Ayurvedic massage, yoga and lifestyle routines.
At the clinic we are primarily focusing on providing massage therapies however we are happy to offer advice on other aspects of Ayurveda.
