Learning Ayurvedic Treatment

Ayurvedic is a holistic approach to health care that popular in India and also gaining an increasing number of followers in Western Countries. This therapy emphasis on preventive measures to maintain good health. In Ayurvedic philosophy, everything in life is held to be controlled by three forces which are called Pitta, Vata and Kapha.

Ayurvedic medicine believed that good health results from the three forces of pitta, vata and kapha being balanced and in harmony with one another. Pitta is said to be like the sun, a great source of energy and in control of all metabolic processes and body function. Vata resembles the wind, which is a continual source of movement and controls the workings of the brains and nervous system. Kapha is like the moon and its tidal influences and controls the fluids of the body and the growth and regeneration cells. Imbalance in any of the three forces may arise as a result of stressful life events.

1. Mental, covering disorders or symptoms with an emotional basis especially the stronger feelings such as jealousy, fears and phobias, hatred, rage and depression
