Experience Ayurveda & Feel the difference!

Ayurveda: 'Harmony is health’, is what Ayurveda preaches. This is India’s age-old science of medicine which illumined many, like the early Greeks and Arabs who were so awed that they borrowed from it. Ayurveda is a 5000 years - old holistic Indian practice, which means science of life or longevity. It relies solely upon herbs, food & diet and one's overall life style. Knowledge of Ayurveda enables one to understand how to create balance of body, mind and consciousness according to one's own constitution. 

In Ayurveda, every individual has a unique combination of physical, mental and emotional characteristics, which is his or her constitution. Body, mind and consciousness work together in maintaining balance. Internal and external factors can act to disturb one's constitutional balance. 

In "Ayurveda", both the environment and humans are composed of five elements: AIR, FIRE, WATER, SPACE, and EARTH. Th predominance of these elements effects the three metabolic characteristics of individuals, which referred to as Doshas (Constitutions).

These three Doshas are Vata (combination of air and space), Pitta (combination of fire and some water) and Kapha ( combination of water and some earth) and individuals can be classified as one of these three constitution or as a combination of two or even three Doshas.

According to the World Health Organization, health is not only physical well being or absence of disease, it is rather physical and mental well being. Ayurveda deals with mental, physical and social well being of an individual making it different from other forms of medicinal therapies. Derived from the Sanskrit word, Ayurveda is divided into two words - 'Ayur' which means life and Veda which means knowledge. Ayurveda in India was at its glorious best in the age of Rishis (Hindu ascetics) and Rajas (kings). Our ancient masters and physicians knew exactly how to be healthy and hearty till a ripe age, which would be nothing less than a century!

Traces of the science have filtered down the centuries and are being revived in a big way these days. But most people tend to think of Ayurveda as an alternative system of medicine, which it is not. It is a way of life. We tend to ignore that the human body does react to nature’s ever-changing moods and that human life is but only a link in the great web of Life. Medication today has been reduced to curative or system-regulating medicines; preventive medicine has hardly made much progress except for a handful of vaccines.

Ayurveda or ‘the knowledge of life’ will tell you that there’s much more to ‘medication’ than that. Ayurveda is based on sound observational concepts which have stood the test of time for thousands of year.

Vaidya Rajiv Kumar, Board Certified Ayurvedic, Alternative Medical Practitioner, (AAMA, AADP)


We see clients with an appointment only. A "new client" visit is generally the longest because we have to cover a large amount of information, for example your current health Issues, your past health history, family history, a review of current diet, herbs and supplements, receiving any other treatments. We charge for the time it takes to provide the service, as other professionals do. We accepts cash, check and all type credit cards. It is our goal to be very respectful of our client's time, and we go to considerable lengths to ensure that our clients are seen within 10 - 15 minutes of their scheduled appointment time. In turn, we require a 24-hour advance notification for a cancellation to avoid fees. We are looking forward to working with you to achieve your health goals thru Nature. Namaste

Homeopathy

Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, (1755-1843) a German physician,  is credited with the development of Homeopathy .  Hahnemann was unsatisfied with the medicine of his day so he developed and used a system based on "like cures like" which was, (and continues to be) highly successful.  Homeopathic preparations are chosen for the ability to stimulate and balance the physical body by supplying a required frequency of subtle energy. Homeopathy considers mental and emotional attributes of a disorder as well as the physical. Homeopathy is a Vibrational Healing technique that uses plants, herbs, minerals and in some cases viruses and bacteria diluted in water, (a process called potentization). In most cases the molecular chemistry of the original sample is not found in the potentized creation - but instead the vibrational resonance of the plant, mineral or pathogen.

Homeopathy has historically proven itself valuable in cases where other modalities have failed and is the 2nd most popular medical system in the world. The use of homeopathic remedies has increased in the United States over the last forty years due to consumer interest. Homeopathic products are not tested on animals, are cost-effective, all-natural and have a history of success. The British Royal Family employs a personal Homeopathic Physician; Homeopathy is well accepted in many countries in Europe, India and South America.

Shiatsu - Su-Jok Acupressure Massage 

Acupressure and Acupuncture are the "Therapies of Nature". These therapies have been long recognized in India, China, Japan and Korea and are widely used in private clinics of these countries. Recently World Health Organization of Geneva has approved this system.

While visiting China in the 1970's, President Richard Nixon observed how these therapies work and he was impressed with their results. Upon returning to the United States, President Nixon sent a group of leading physicians to China to study Acupressure and Acupuncture. After much research, the physicians expressed favorable opinions about these therapies. Since the 1970's, Acupressure and Acupuncture have gained much popularity in the West as more and more people discover the many benefits.

More than five thousand years ago the Chinese discovered that pressing certain points on the body relieved pain where it occured and it also gave benefit to other parts of the body. Gradually other points were found that not only relieved pain but also influenced the functioning of certain internal organs.  In the Indian Books of Ayurveda there is reference to Ayurvedic Massage and Acupressure being used for the purpose of healing.

Shiatsu Acupressure is the most ancient and simplest of the various therapies such as Acupuncture, Reflexology and other Healing therapies which are prevalent today. Each of these therapies produces healing effects on the internal organs of the body through well defined points on our body surface.

Reflexology

Foot Reflexology is deep-tissue massage of the feet. Reflexology descended from early Eastern cultures. Foot Reflexology was popularized in the 1930's by Eunice D. Ingham, a physiotherapist. Her method is the most popular and widely accepted in the world. Reflexology connecting energy points in the hands, feet, & Ears to creat changes in our body, A stimulation of nerve to open energy path. 

The feet are rich in nerve endings and these nerves are connected to organ systems and glands throughout the body. If our natural rhythms are disrupted and circulation is impaired, (lack of exercise, desk job, bed-ridden) we allow an excess acid condition to develop. Acid crystals, (similar to frost particles when viewed under a microscope) can accumulate in the nerve endings of the feet. When the nerve endings are stimulated with Reflexology, the acid crystals are broken down and circulation is increased in the corresponding organ system or gland - balance is restored. Reflexology is deeply relaxing and therapeutic.

Reiki Energy Healing - Healing Touch Therapy

Reiki is a Japanese form of Healing Touch. By definition Reiki means "Spiritually-Guided", (Rei) "Energy", (Ki). You may be familiar with other Eastern words for Energy  like "Chi" and "Prana" or the Western term "Universal Life-Force Energy". There are many forms of Healing Touch Therapy and each creates the same positive result. Humans have used touch therapies since the beginning of recorded existence. Many ask - how does it work? 

It's important to understand that everyone has the inherent ability to heal through touch. The benefit of  learning Reiki is this - it is a discipline that creates focus and increases the energetic vibration of the recipient as well as the receiver. Reiki practitioners are also called "channels" because their vibration is attuned to "channel" Universal Life-Force Energy and guide it where it is needed most in the reicipients body and energy field. According to William Lee Rand, Director of the "International Center for Reiki Training", experienced non-Reiki healers who become attuned to Reiki noticed a considerable increase in Energy and client satisfaction.

Is Reiki Science or Science Fiction? Let's turn to Albert Einstein, Quantum Physics and Modern Medicine for answers...

Albert Einstein proved with his famous equation E=mc2 that Energy and Matter are dual expressions of the same universal substance.. The "Universal Substance" is an energy or vibration that we are all composed. By gently manipulating the body with "Rei-Ki" and elevating its vibration, lower vibration entities like dis-ease  are unsustainable.

Reiki brings about a soothing calm in the most anxious personality which in itself is healing. Medical doctors agree that many of today's disorders have an emotional component. Current research on the brain and body chemistry proves stress has a detrimental affect on the entire body and that relaxation techniques are beneficial to health.

Healing touch therapies like Reiki are proven to reduce the surface-tension of water which may explain increased cellular respiration & metabolism in individuals who receive therapy. Reiki and other touch therapies are now being taught to medical professionals and used increasingly in hospital settings.

7 Chakras & Energy.jpg

Chakra Balancing - Crystal Healing Art

There are seven main energy centers in the body, known as chakras. Each chakra is located throughout our body so that it correlates to specific body ailment and physical dysfunctions; each energy center also houses our mental and emotional strengths. When we have a physical issue, it creates weaknesses in our emotional behavior. When we release the stale energy from the body, it can undo any tightness, stiffness, or malfunction of that area. The clearing of the energy can also balance our emotional state of mind. The Chakra Mind-Body Balance is a two-way street: if there are certain fears and emotions we are holding on to, we experience physical restrictions, too. If you have achiness or stiffness, or certain reoccurring emotions and fears, read along and you may find out which chakra is affected or blocked. Let us help you better understand and heal yourself.

Clinical Hypnotherapy

Clinical Hypnotherapy is used to create positive changes in the mind and body. Clinical Hypnotherapy has been used successfully for everything from smoking cessation and weight loss to alleviation of pain and sports enhancement.

By using the powers of the mind, Clinical Hypnotherapy brings about change by introducing positive suggestion while in a state of extreme relaxation. Clinical Hypnotherapy has nothing to do with "Stage Hypnotism". A subject in a state of hypnosis will only agree to behave in a manner congruent to their personality type.

It is a safe, effective therapy and is endorsed by Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D. for individuals experiencing chronic illness.

Amethyst Crystals are generally one of the first gems people are attracted to when begin their crystal healing journey. This doesn’t come as much of a surprise since amethyst healing properties have been valued for thousands of years. As early as 25,000 B.C, the Neolithic people in Europe and the ancient Egyptians prized it for its beauty and legendary energies. Greek and Roman societies also placed high value on the Amethyst healing powers. It has long been considered a gemstone of royalty, being used in the crowns, scepters and rings of bishops. Amethyst is said to have been the ninth stone in the breastplate of the high priest of Israel, and one of the ten stones upon which the names of the tribes of Israel were engraved. With all this rich history, there must be a reason so many different ancient civilizations harnessed the properties of Amethyst. Amethyst crystals are exceptional for providing spiritual protection, inner strength and clarity of mind, making them a classic meditation tool. Meditating with them can help you to become more in tune with your feelings, helping you to get to know yourself on a much deeper level. It also stimulates the crown chakra and calms your thoughts, making it a powerful aid in meditation. Amethyst healing properties also include acting as a natural form of stress relief. This crystal attracts positive energy while ridding your body of any negative emotions—feelings of stress, anxiety, fear, depression and more. The healing properties of Amethyst help to clear your body’s energy field of all negative energies and influences, acting as an energetic shield that creates a bubble of spiritual light around your body.
