Due to its holistic approach, Ayurveda has shown a great potential as a discipline complementary to modern medicine. Its main advantages are disease prevention and the lack of negative side effects.
Ayurvedic herbal supplements have positive effects on the whole organism. When taken they not only improve the function of a particular organ, but they ents also support the healthy functioning of all the other organs in the body.
Ayurveda has an exceptional disease prevention capacity. It examines in detail how a specific disease appears in the body. Just like allopathic medicine, it establishes six stages of the disease: accumulation, aggravation, dissemination, localization, manifestations and complications. By an ancient method of pulse diagnosis the imbalances can be determined at the first level, which means that the occurrence of the disease can be prevented by minute changes in diet and daily routine.
Disease does not happen over night. Long before any bodily symptoms surface, a lot of things have already happened on a cause-effect level. The scientist, researchers and patients themselves have only recently begun to realize the role of self-healing in a recuperation process, but are still unable to determine its origin.
However, Ayurveda knows the way and the strategies needed to initiate the self-healing powers inherent to all individuals.
