Ayurveda – ‘The ancient healing
system of India’
Ayurveda is
the ancient Indian health science developed through centuries
long research by sages, who are eminent scholars. This is a system
that not only cures disease but also a system teaching us how
to achieve perfect health. Like other systems of traditional medicines
it has its own unique features. In ayurveda, more emphasis is
laid upon the ‘FIELD’ than the ‘SEED’.
Natural herbs are widely used as medicines. Ayurveda cares for
patient’s physical and mental satisfaction and so therapies
are done on patients with peace of mind.
Kerala has
a special type of ayurvedic treatment, which is entirely different
and far more effective as well. The special Kerala treatments
include - pizhichil (oil bath), ilakizhi (leaf bundle massage),
navarakizhi (rice bundle massage) etc.
Now it is
the time for retreat. From the hypnotic sleep created by the crave
for modernism, man is waking up slowly to find his final and original
shelter in his mother’s lap - the coming back to nature
is becoming precious and here comes the importance of ayurveda
- the natural way of healing physical, mental and spiritual illness.
