Ayurveda, standing tall amidst fierce competition in the health world
The roots of Ayurveda, one of the oldest medicinal system in the world can be traced to around 5000 years back from today. The word ‘ayurveda’ is derived from two Sanskrit words, “ayus, the life” and “ved, the knowledge”. This medicinal system spread from Indian lands to other Asian nations such as Tibet, China by the Buddhist monks. The medicinal system is no more available in its original form but, altered forms developed around new age concepts can be observed. Ayurveda is more than just a health care system. It is a lifestyle, when adopted maintains perfect balance of mind and body.
Ayurveda works on a unique fusion of philosophy and science. Achieving holistic health is the centre stage in an ayurvedic treatment. It mainly aims at balancing the mental, physical and spiritual components. In Ayurveda, practitioners mainly assess the symptoms of a disease to get to its root causes. Treatment ensures that recurrence of any disease is a far away possibility. The modern day medicinal system works with a different approach, mainly at dealing with diseases for the time being. This opens the gate for recurrence, quite contrary to the Ayurvedic treatment.
Ayurvedic treatment has gained popularity in the recent past due, to ineffectiveness of the conventional medicine systems. Ayurvedic treatment covers the basic of problems, like everyday ailments to the complex of diseases. More emphasis is laid on natural mode of healing and so, commonly used household ingredients such as neem, basil and turmeric are used for treatment. Neem mainly acts as a blood purifier and other uses include beauty enhancer, pimple treatment and dealing with dandruffs. Turmeric finds usage as an antiseptic. Basil is used in face packs and for pimple troubles.
There are some myths surrounding ayurveda that have raised doubts about its healing techniques. Western scientists are still a bit apprehensive about aiming for holistic health using herbs. But, the matter of fact is that ayurveda is more than just herbs. Treatment includes other products such as milk, oil, minerals also. A lot has been said about ayurveda being a relatively slower process than conventional systems, the reality is opposite. Recovery depends on the accurate assessment and the type of disease. In short, use of herbs and natural ingredients helps in maintenance of healthy body and mind.
