What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda, the "Science of Life," is an ancient healing system developed in India over 5,000 years ago. It focuses on restoring balance between the body, mind, and spirit through natural therapies, herbal medicines, yoga, proper diet, and lifestyle changes. Unlike modern medicine, Ayurveda targets the root cause of ailments, promoting holistic well-being and longevity.
