Ayurveda has been carefully nurtured in Kerala for more than a thousand years. From specialised treatments to prescribed diets, it is an integral part of our culture. Ayurveda is a way of life to us and not simply a method to cure ailments. The Ayurveda practitioner aims at the holistic growth of the patient instead of focusing on a single issue. This ensures long term health benefits and stabilizes the body. Dhara Treatment, as depicted in the picture, is one of the popular Ayurveda therapies used for rejuvenation of the body. This is a process in which medicated oil or aherbal concoction is poured all over the body.
