Ayurveda is the age-old holistic science of life, which is the perfect and accurate approach in the field of health care. Ayurveda originates from the Sanskrit word ‘Ayur’ which means life and ‘Veda’ which means ‘to know’. It was invented around 5000 years ago in India. Dhanavantri is believed to be God of Ayurveda. The benefits of Ayurvedic medicines are numerous. Let us now look at the advantages and benefits of Ayurveda over the modern Allopathic approach of medical treatment.
Nature Of Treatment
Ayurveda is associated with finding the root of the disease and then aims to eradicate it. This science of medical treatment is fully aware of the body system, and it does not suppress the disturbing element which causes the disease. It aims at searching the origin of the disease and then cures it. The cure is permanent. But in allopathic treatment, the disease is not cured permanently, and it provides only instant relief to the patients by destroying the disease-causing organism.
Medicines Used
The Ayurvedic treatment includes the use of natural herbs, which adds on to the benefits of the Ayurvedic products. Allopathic medicine consists of the use of antidotes prepared synthetically from chemicals which might damage your immunity system.
At its root, Ayurveda is a holistic tradition and way of living that can help each of us to claim and celebrate our capacity for wellness. Ayurveda can help us:
- Sync up with our truest inner nature
- Honor and develop our strengths
- Hone in on our challenge areas
- Redirect detrimental tendencies
- Maintain balance in the face of adversity
