Welcome To Ayukt Ayurved

The word “Ayurveda” is made of two Sanskrit words, ayur (life) and veda (knowledge), meaning “knowledge of life”. The origins of Ayurveda dates back to 3300-1300 BCE. Ayurveda is based on the belief that diseases occur due to an imbalance in a person. Hence, Ayurvedic treatment aims to regain the balance between the spirit, mind, body and the environment. In other words, Ayurveda focuses on improving the health of the person, preventing illnesses, and treating illnesses through herbal remedies and practices such as yoga, massage and dietary changes. Ayurveda is acknowledged as a traditional system of medicine by the World Health Organization (WHO). The formal definition of “health” was adapted by the WHO from Ayurvedic teachings.
