Ayurveda - Over 4000 years young. : Ayurveda is the perfect ancient science of life. The word 'ayur' literally means life and 'veda' the science of knowledge. It implies to connected ideas, the science of life and art of living.

It emphasises on the preventive rather than the curative aspect of therapy and orients itself towards a healthy and enlightened lifestyle.
