Second, Ayurveda prescribes medicines extracted from nature, like plants and herbs, which enhances trustworthiness.
  • The tenet of Ayurvedic medicine believes in the concept of three dosas called vata, pitta and kapha. In Ayurveda there are treatments for diseases as well as for health maintenance. For life style related disorders that are on the rise among urbanites, Ayurveda offers various traditional therapies.

  • Apart from Ayurveda, Naturopathy too pampers the body with skin and body treatments. Body scrubs prepared with sea salt, coconut and papaya are excellent for removing dead skin. Honey,cucumber and chocolates are very good ingredients for wraps that cool refresh the body. To improve energy channels in the body, acupressure and acupuncture are very effective.
