Proper nutrition -

A cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine

The doctrine of Ayurveda believes that proper nutrition is not only important for a good health status, but essential in the place.

But which diet is needed, which foods are recommended and which time of their preparation is usefull again depends not least on the type of constitution of the respective person.

Some guidelines are equal for all people and do not dependent on the particular type. It's always good to eat only when you are really hungry and not to consume any snacks. To take enough time and eat in a quiet environment and with a similar state of mind is equally helpful for everyone. In addition, the main meal should be served at noon and - like all other meals too - at best have all 6 flavors (sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent, bitter / astringent). If you keep at least a three-hour meal break after meals and drink plenty of water or unsweetened (herbal or fruit) tea throughout the day, you have implemented the most general rules of the ayurvedic nutrition.

But as I said: The particular type of constitution of the concerned person is important. A kapha-pitta type eats better not the same foods in the same preparation, at the same time of day, like a Vata type, for example. In the case that the food is used in the form of a cure in alleviating symptoms and curing diseases, the knowledge of the proper physical, mental and emotional condition of the patient is crucial.

As an example, let me mention that a person with Pitta-type with a strong so-called fire of digestion, preferably should eat lukewarm, warm, medium-heavy meals in the tastes sweet and bitter, while someone of the Kapha-type should decide to use shortly cooked, hot and spicy tasting, bitter and astringent food.

I am looking forward to presenting to you your very own dietary guidelines, based on your individual type of constitution. Whether you want to heal from illness or just want to eat better and more targeted: I'll give you the guidance to you local foods, their preparation and the rules of their consumption. Just give me a call!

Ayurvedic treatments -

the variety of ways

• The Marma point massage

Ayurvedic medicine calls locations in the human body, where muscles, bones, blood vessels, joints or tendons, cross or come together as so-called Marma points. 108 of these points exist in the human organism. The six largest Marma points are identical to the so-called chakras of man. They are located in the fontanel (Adipati-point), the center of the forehead (Stapani-point), in the heart (Hridaya-point), around the belly button around (Nabhi-point), in the region of the bladder (Basti- point) and finally at the dam (Guda-point).

Targeted stimulation of one, some or all of these neuralgic points of the body causes different reactions in the body of the patient. An influence of internal organs and the elimination of specific physical limitations shall be achieved as well as positive effects in mental and physical blockages and on increasing strength, power, stress resistance and anti-aging effects are possible.

Which of the many marma points are specifically considered and in which form (whether hard or soft, whether with one or all fingers and the palm, with or without addition of oil, etc.) and how long the Marma-point-massage may take depends on the individual case. Of which condition the treated person is, which  symptoms he/she has, which pre-existing conditions there are and which ayurvedic type of constitution he/she is of, etc. is once again crucial.

This is not only so in the case of Marma point massage, but in the case of using each of the other ayurvedic treatments, like the Abhyanga-full body oil massage, the Mukabhyanga-facial massage, the Padabhyanga-reflexology massage, the Shirodhara-Oil treatment and many other ayurvedic therapies and each ayurvedic medication. This is the kind of individuality of a reputable ayurvedic medicine, which distinguishes clearly from superficial wellness services.

I always produce an individual ayurvedic expert diagnosis, after having prooved the detailed history of the desease(s), symptoms and therapies of each of my content patients and give you the respective treatments specifically to your individual healing needs. Just give me a call!

The types of constitution -

A basic element of Ayurvedic teaching

As mentioned in the overview, there exist the 5 elements of life, earth, water, fire, air and space (ether) in every human being in the form of the 3 so-called Doshas Vata (air & space), Pitta (fire & water) and Kapha (Earth & Water ).

According to the ayurvedic medicine there are all of these 3 Doshas available in the body of each person - but each with different weightings.

Usually two of the three doshas predominate in the human body. Depending on the doshas which dominate the physical, there are different types of constitution. It may be that one person is more a Kapha-Pitta type, while another another patient embodies the nature of Vatta and Kapha more dominant.

In Ayurveda, it is very important to determine the significance of the particular type of constitution. Because all the individual treatments, consisting of applications, ayurvedic medicines, nutritional advices, speacial treatments, etc., completely refer to it.

Before I treat you ayurvedicly I always first determine your individual constitution type. For a personally effective diagnosis and treatment of your special symptoms is assured - for your healthy future. Just give me a call!

Ayurvedic medicine is a more than 5000 years old science and has its origin in India. The first oral history of their experience, policies and medical and philosophical ideas formed a whole pallet of specific therapeutic procedures. Its timeliness is indispuably high - especially in our time of a decline of many health-promoting factors (diet, work, relationships, values).

If we translate the word "Ayurveda" from its traditional home language - Sanskrit - into German, it means "wisdom of life" or "science of life".

Ayurvedic medicine has a holistic healing claim. It assumes that a person is inherently healthy and that disease (s) is (are) a failure of important physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects in the life of each human being.

The teaching of Ayurveda in particular is based on the fact, that the elements of life - which occur in the body of the patient as well as in its environment - should be in line with each other. If so, then the person is healthy, feels well and strong. He knows what he is doing well and what he better avoids.

The 5 elements of life of Ayurvedic doctrine are earth, water, fire, air and space (ether).

In the human body, they do not exist freely and independently, but in the form of the so-called doshas.

The ancient Indian healing method mentions 3 of them: Vata, Pita and Kapha. Vata consists of the elements of air (wind) and space (ether), pitta from fire and water elements and the Kapha dosha is a mix of the life factors earth and water. All three doshas are present in every human body, but in varying degrees. The balance of the doshas determines an very individual constitution type of each individual patient.

All Ayurvedic medicinal applications take the nature of this individual type of each patient to be treated into account. Even for the highly effective policy of Ayurvedic Nutrition - another element of the holistic Ayurvedic medicine - the knowledge of the particular type of constitution is crucial.

My offers include a consultation, a special type of coordinated diagnosis and a professional ayurvedic treatment of your symptoms - all according to your individual type of constitution (previously identified by me). Just give me a call!
