Holistic Ayurveda

There are many types of different pathies prevalent in the world. Among them the most recognised ones are Ayurveda, Naturopathy, Homeopathy, Unani, Siddha and Reiki. Similarly there are various types of diseases and their different modes of manifestation and effects on the patient. Moreover people are also having different prakrities i.e. constitution and as such no single pathy is selfsufficient to cure diseases in all individuals. And that is why all these pathies are still prevalent today also and each one is having its own potentialities.
Therefore in order to cure a disease in its fullest form we have to adopt a multidiciplinary approach and use the combination of treatment modalities. This not only cures the disease, but also reduces the aftermaths of treatment and recovery time.
When this combined approach is applied in any system of medicine it is known as “Holistic”.
Ayurveda is oldest form of medical treatment and encompasses most of other treatment modalities.
When this holistic approach is applied along with Ayurveda as the main base it is known as “HOLISTIC AYURVEDA” and is the most effective means of treating a disease.
