Ayurveda is a system of preventative health care, rejuvenation and longevity. Originating in India, Ayurveda means, Ayu “life” and Veda “knowledge or science”, so it can be interpreted as the “science of life.” Known as mankind’s oldest healing system, dating back between 3500 and 2500 B.C. Today, Ayurvedic consultations offer guidance to a balanced lifestyle through herbal remedies in the form of teas and oils handmade to meet the individual’s needs.
