What is Ayurveda?
Discover the Ancient Science of Ayurveda.
Welcome to the world of Ayurveda, a holistic approach to wellness that encompasses all aspects of life. Derived from the words "AYUR" meaning life and "VEDA" meaning science.
Ayurveda is a holistic system of medicine that originated in India more than 3,000 years ago. It is based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body, and spirit.
Ayurveda is based on the idea that there are three doshas, or body types: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Each dosha is made up of a combination of the five elements: space, air, fire, water, and earth. A person's dosha is determined by their birthdate, time of day, and place of birth.
Health benefits of Ayurveda:
• Treatments for Arthritis.
• Reduces stress.
• Weight Loss or Maintenance.
• Hormonal Balance.
• Minimizes Inflammation.
• Reduce Symptoms of Illness & Disease.
• Cleanses the Body.
• Overall Balance.
• Help Cure Insomnia.
• Regulate Bloating.
• Digestion.
Ayurveda practitioners use a variety of treatments, including herbs, massage, yoga, and meditation, to help people achieve this balance.
- Herbs: Ayurveda practitioners use a wide variety of herbs to treat a variety of conditions.
- Ayurvedic Massage: Ayurveda massage, called Abhyanga, is used to promote circulation, remove toxins, and relieve stress.
- Ayurvedic Treatments: Karna Purana, Nasya nose and Sinus Therapy, Heart Basti, Shirodara, etc.
- Yoga: Ayurveda yoga, called hatha yoga, is used to improve flexibility, strength, and balance.
- Meditation: Ayurveda meditation, called dhyana, is used to calm the mind and promote relaxation.
At Ayurvida Wellness and Clinic, we believe in treating the root cause of ailments, rather than just the symptoms. By taking into account the five natural elements - fire, air, water, space, and earth - and their unique combinations in the human body, we are able to determine an individual's unique constitution, known as dosha in Ayurveda.
By understanding your dosha, we can provide personalized recommendations for lifestyle choices, nutrition, and skincare products that will ensure optimal vitality and balance between the mind, body, and soul.

APPOINTMENT REQUEST
Chritianne, Earl and Chelly all three are amazing at what they do! I have regular abhyanga massages that help me a lot in elevating my energy levels and acne facials and that helped me a lot in reducing my cystic acne and pigmentation. They also have a very calming environment and its a treat to get these services at Ayurvida :) Kudos to the team! Keep up the good work :)
I’ve had the pleasure of supporting this small business for almost a year, and they truly care about their customers. The atmosphere is always calm, welcoming, and professional. While they are a small team, they are each experts in their art.Chelly (Facials): Chelly transformed my acne-prone skin! Her facials are relaxing, and effective. She is gentle, meticulous, and truly cares about results. I really appreciate the fact that she takes time to read your skin and provides a personal experience; rather than one recipe for all facials/skin types.Earl (Massage): Earl listens closely to your concerns and delivers exactly what you need. Whether you are looking to fully relax or need targeted work, Earl takes care of you. I’ve had two instances where just one massage session has extremely made a difference on a constant pain area; Including a constant tension pain on my shoulder from long hours of desk work.I’ve not had the opportunity to try their Ayurvedic treatments yet, however I am positive that Christianne and her team will deliver the same level of professionalism and quality as the treatments I have enjoyed. Overall, I truthfully recommend this place for anyone searching for a wellness personalize treatment. 10/10 would recommend!
