Summary:

Ayurveda has gained an incredible amount of popularity in the West in the last 10 years. Few people realize that this natural science of health and well being has a more than 5000 year recorded history. Ayurveda has lasted this long because it has real, lasting value as a paradigm for health and wellness. Of particular interest is the classification of people according to "body types" and the tailoring of the therapeutic action to the constitutional type so indicated. We also have a number of other traditional health modalities represented including the Chinese and Tibetan models.

With the immense advancement of medical science, a number of diseases which were considered fatal at one time have been routed. Nevertheless, there are still many diseases which cannot be cured by the allopathic system of medicine. However, Ayurveda, which has a vital role in ensuring mental and physical well-being, has the cure for these maladies.
