Ayurveda,
Indias ancient science of healing is at a conservative estimate,
some three thousand years old. It is purely herbal based, its
medication made from the roots, the leaves, the sap or even the
bark of a tree, from small shrubs and weeds, from spices and their
extracts. And sometimes even from precious metals, administered in
powdered form. No chemicals are used, so there are no harmful or
painful side effects.
There are two points to be noted. Firstly, if you have a couple of
twinges after your treatment has started, its an excellent sign.
It shows your treatment is beginning to take effect. Secondly the
benefits of the treatment will sometimes not be immediate.
Ayurveda is treating your body and only after your body responds
will you start feeling the difference.
