Known as ‘the science of life’, Ayurveda has a history spanning over 5,000 years which is why it is considered as one of the oldest traditional systems of medicine in the world. The name Ayurveda is derived from the two Sanskrit words Ayu meaning life and Veda which means science or knowledge. It is a traditional form of healing that has been refined over the thousands of years of its existence. It is a person-centred medicine that concentrates on the individual, from lifestyle, to health and sustenance, disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Instead of quick fixes it takes a holistic approach to wellbeing through a personalised process.
