What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda is the ancient science of self healing
coming from India and is thought to be more than 5,000 years old. The
Sanskrit word "Ayus" means life or living, and the word "Veda" means
knowledge or Science, therefore Ayurveda means the science of life, or
the knowledge of living in harmony with ones internal and external
environment. The fundamental spirit of Ayurveda is to be able to
understand and heal oneself on the physical, mental and spiritual
level, and to understand how these parts of ourselves are in harmony or
disharmony with our environment and the macrocosm in general. This is
done with a wide variety of therapies utilized in Ayurveda: Herbal
medicine, dietary changes, aromatherapy, hydrotherapy, massage,
medicated oils, meditation, yoga postures, exercise, sound therapy
(mantra) and many more. Virtually every thing in the universe is seen
in the light of Ayurveda as either beneficial to the individual or
harmful, and how to antidote those harmful effects.
Traditionally there
are eight main branches of Ayurveda.
1. Kayachikitsa -Internal Medicine
2. Balachikitsa -Paediatrics
3. Graha Chikitsa -Psychiatry
4. Salakya Chikitsa -ENT (ear, nose, throat and head)
5. Salya Chikitsa -Surgery
6. Visha Chikitsa -Toxicology
7. Rasayana -Rejuvenation Therapy
8. Vajeekarana -Aphrodisiac treatment
