Ayurvea is a healing system which has its roots in the same traditions of India from which yoga, meditation, herbalism, aromatherapy, acupuncture and other traditional health care practices have developed. More than a  system of treating illness, Ayurveda offers a programme designed to help people stay vital while realising their full  potential. Providing guidelines on daily and seasonal routines, diet and behaviour, Ayurveda is based on the premise that health is achieved through balance and dynamic integration of body, mind and environment.
