Ayurveda is the oldest surviving medical system in the world which has continued on today. Derived from the Sanskrit root words - ‘ayus’ (life) and ‘ved’ (knowledge) – this healing science offers a rich, comprehensive outlook to a healthy life. Its origins go back nearly 5,000 years. It was developed and practiced by the same sages or rishis, who laid the foundations of the Vedic civilization in India, by organizing the fundamentals of life into optimal systems.
