Ayurveda Treatments
Ayurveda is the sister science to yoga. Ayur means life, veda means knowledge.
India’s ancient science of life and health integrates body, mind and spirit, restoring balance, harmony and peace of mind. Ayurveda is a 5,000-year-old system of natural healing, known as the ‘Mother of all healing systems’ as it predates all other healing therapies and natural medicines. It is not merely to treat ailments, but a complete philosophy that encourages the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle.
Experience the benefits of wellness treatments at Centre Wellness with our carefully curated Ayurvedic services.
