Updated: May 29, 2026
Ayurveda is a holistic healing system that developed among the sages of ancient India approximately 6,000 years ago. This medical system has several aspects that distinguish it from other approaches to health care. The word “Ayurveda” is composed of the words ayur – “life” and veda – “knowledge” and translates as “science of life”. The main principle of Ayurveda is to live in harmony with your constitution and the laws of nature. Ayurveda is a holistic science, it deals with the whole person. It does not focus on suppressing symptoms, but seeks and treats the root cause of diseases. It aims to maintain the balance of energy in the body, the most important condition of health. Ayurveda deals in detail not only with treatment, but also with disease prevention and longevity. According to the constitution, external and climatic conditions, an individually based diet, change in overall lifestyle, herbal preparations, procedures, yoga, etc. are recommended. Recognition of individual differences and an individual approach to treatment is one of the unique features of Ayurvedic medicine.
