Holistic Healing For Illnesses
Ayurveda focusses on healing each person as a complete system. Therefore, unlike in western medicine where treatment for an ailment in one part of the body and will focus mainly just on medication for that, Ayurveda requires us to assess the body as a whole. This requires investigation in to their diet, digestion, sleep, general health etc, and the persons mental wellbeing including their emotions, thoughts, how they perceive the world, their environment and associations. Healing therefore comprises of a multifaceted approach covering all of the aforementioned elements. It is one of the most holistic approaches to health and wellbeing, whether it is used as preventative care, treating minor imbalances or major illnesses.
In Sri Lanka and India, Ayurveda is recognized as a medical profession with a very long tradition of curative herbal preparation and treatments (including surgery, with Ayurveda having the first ever recorded event of a plastic surgery procedure in the world). Our Ayurveda doctors have completed a bachelor of Ayurveda consisting of around 6 years of university studies in classic Ayurveda as well as a parallel understanding of western medicine, together with a year of internship in a government authorised hospital for practical learnings.
Being true to the tradition of Ayurveda, we explore all of its possibilities, including offering herbal medicines and treatments for a range of illnesses. Below is a list with some conditions which our doctors can address. While some diseases cannot be fully cured, it might be possible to offer palliative measures for the symptoms, management of the present state, or reduction of side effects derived from western treatments and medications. In case you are undergoing allopathic treatment or medication, it is also possible to speak to our doctors in order to combine both for better results, depending on the context.
