Ayurveda Weight Loss

This intensive therapy includes many different treatments for those whose goal is to achieve long-lasting weight loss. An initial consultation, at the beginning and the end of your treatment will be offered, and you will have daily interactions with your wellness consultant to fine tune your program as you start losing weight and clearing out your system.

Weight-loss usually involves calorie restrictions of some kind but it needn’t be that way. More often than not, calorie counting leaves people feeling out of balance and stressed and food ultimately becomes an obsession. In this situation, the body is running low on vital nutrients and this is one of the main reasons why fancy weight-loss diets rarely work in the long-term.

Ayurveda has a 5000-year- old wisdom behind it – as it treats the body and the mind as one complex system. The approach is simple: cleanse the body of toxins, clean up the intestines, and give the patient proper assimilable and natural food. All this is based on a person’s body type, metabolic profile (called Doshas) all of which was discovered in ancient India by highly evolved souls who understood the complexity of the human body.

OUR BASIC AYURVEDA – SLIMMING PROGRAM INCLUDES:
