Ayurveda & Spa Tour |
 |
|
Ayurveda (Ayurveda, "the complete knowledge for long life") or ayurvedic
medicine is a system of traditional medicine native to India and practiced in
other parts of the world as a form of alternative medicine. In Sanskrit, the
word ayurveda consists of the words āyus, meaning "longevity", and veda, meaning
"related to knowledge" or "science". |
It is purely herbal based, its medication made from the roots, the leaves, the
sap or even the bark of a tree, from small shrubs and weeds, from spices and
their extracts. |
No chemicals are used, so there are no harmful or painful side effects.There are
two points to be noted. Firstly, if you have a couple of twinges after your
treatment has started, it's an excellent sign. It shows your treatment is
beginning to take effect. Secondly the benefits of the treatment will sometimes
not be immediate. Ayurveda is treating your body and only after your body
responds will you start feeling the difference. We have selected a few
treatments that you can avail at the Ayurveda Centres. Holy India Travels
