It’s important to know the history and significance of Ayurveda before opting for a health package. The word "ayurveda" is Sanskrit and its meaning is knowledge of life and longevity. Ayurveda is a system of medicine with historical roots in the Indian subcontinent. In Sushruta Samhita (Sushruta's Compendium), Sushruta wrote that Dhanvantari, Hindu god of Ayurveda, incarnated himself as a king of Varanasi and taught medicine to a group of physicians, including Sushruta. Ayurveda therapies have varied and evolved over more than two millennia.
According to some scholars Ayurveda originated in prehistoric times and some of the concepts of Ayurveda have existed from the time of Indus Valley Civilization or even earlier. Ayurveda developed significantly during the Vedic period. Ayurveda has eight ways to diagnose illness, called Nadi (pulse), Mootra (urine), Mala (stool), Jihva (tongue), Shabda (speech), Sparsha (touch), Druk (vision), and Aakruti (appearance). Ayurvedic doctors approach diagnosis by using the five senses. Ayurveda also focuses on exercise, yoga, and meditation.
Ayurveda follows the concept of Dinacharya, which says that natural cycles (waking, sleeping, working, meditation etc.) are important for health. Hygiene, including regular bathing, cleaning of teeth, oil pulling, tongue scraping, skin care, and eye washing, is also a central practice. Plant-based treatments in Ayurveda may be derived from roots, leaves, fruits, bark, or seeds such as cardamom and cinnamon. According to Ayurveda, panchakarma are techniques to eliminate toxic elements from the body.
