How Ayurveda Works

Ayurveda is a form of complementary medicine, meaning it works best when it's performed alongside more conventional forms of healthcare. The word Ayurveda itself stems from the words “science of life.” This is an apt descriptor, as Ayurvedic medicine analyzes all of your body's components.

The primary focus of Ayurvedic Medicine is on interconnectedness and constitution (or prakriti). Those who practice Ayurveda believe that all things in the universe are joined together. In a practical sense, this means your body cannot be healthy if your mind is unhealthy, and vice versa. Your constitution, then, is your specific combination of physical and psychological characteristics.

These characteristics are called life forces (or doshas). Every person has three doshas as part of their constitution:

  • Vata dosha, which controls things such as breathing, discharge of waste, heart function and more.
  • Pitta dosha, which regulates hormones and the digestive system .
  • Kapha dosha, helps maintain strength, immunity and growth.

Ayurvedic practitioners believe each person is dominant in one of the three life forces. Being dominant in a particular dosha can lead to problems like digestive disorders, diabetes , cancer, anxietydepression and much more.

Ayurveda Treatment in Midland Park, NJ

Every Ayurvedic treatment starts with an analysis, to determine the balance of your doshas. This is done with a complete investigation of your life, including your diet, behavior, exercise levels and family history.
Ayurvedic practitioners at our Midland Park clinic, also take a look at your appearance, including your:

  • Tongue
  • Skin
  • Eyes
  • Weight

In Ayurveda, it's believed that these visual indicators can let your practitioner know about the way your doshas are harmonizing. As for the treatment itself, Ayurveda is comprehensive. Ayurvedic healers use a combination of:

  • Diet changes
  • Herbs
  • Vitamins
  • Meditation
  • Massage

Ayurveda also takes special care to monitor and improve your spiritual health and mental health. This is done through meditation to minimize anxiety, depression and negative thoughts.
