The Ayurveda Department at Holy Family Hospital is committed to providing natural and holistic healthcare based on ancient Indian wisdom. Ayurveda, meaning "the science of life," promotes balance in the body and mind through natural therapies, herbal remedies, and lifestyle guidance. Our department focuses on preventing illness and promoting wellness by addressing the root cause of health problems rather than just treating symptoms. Whether you are seeking relief from chronic ailments or looking for ways to enhance your overall health, our experienced Ayurvedic practitioners offer personalized care tailored to your individual needs. We combine time-tested Ayurvedic principles with a compassionate approach to help you achieve balance, harmony, and well-being.
Our Ayurveda department provides a wide range of natural treatments designed to heal the body, mind, and spirit. Some of the key services we offer include:
- Ayurvedic Consultations: Personalized assessments to understand your unique body constitution (Prakriti) and identify imbalances in the doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha). Our consultations focus on preventive care and addressing chronic health issues.
- Panchakarma Detoxification: A comprehensive detox program that helps cleanse the body of toxins, rejuvenate tissues, and restore balance to the system. This therapy is effective for conditions like digestive issues, skin disorders, and joint pain.
- Stress Management: Our stress-relief therapies, including traditional oil massages and calming treatments like Shirodhara, help reduce anxiety, tension, and fatigue, promoting deep relaxation and peace of mind.
- Chronic Disease Management: Tailored Ayurvedic treatments for managing conditions such as arthritis, asthma, diabetes, digestive disorders, and skin diseases, using natural methods that support long-term health and healing.
- Diet and Lifestyle Counseling: Expert guidance on diet, daily routines, and lifestyle changes that are personalized to support your health and wellness goals based on Ayurvedic principles.
Our department offers a variety of specialized Ayurvedic therapies and procedures designed to treat both acute and chronic conditions while enhancing overall well-being:
- Panchakarma Therapy: Panchakarma is a comprehensive detoxification and rejuvenation process that includes treatments like Vamana (therapeutic vomiting), Virechana (purgation), Basti (medicated enemas), Nasya (nasal cleansing), and Raktamokshana (blood purification). This process helps eliminate toxins from the body, improve digestion, and strengthen the immune system.
- Abhyanga (Therapeutic Oil Massage): A full-body massage using warm, medicated oils to nourish the skin, improve blood circulation, relieve muscle tension, and calm the nervous system.
- Shirodhara (Stress-Relief Therapy): In this relaxing therapy, warm herbal oil is poured in a steady stream over the forehead, helping to soothe the mind, relieve headaches, reduce stress, and improve sleep.
- Kati Basti (Lower Back Treatment): A specialized therapy for relieving chronic lower back pain and stiffness, where warm herbal oils are applied to the lower back using a dough reservoir.
- Udvartana (Herbal Powder Massage): A dry massage using herbal powders that helps in reducing cellulite, promoting weight loss, and improving skin texture and complexion.
Our Ayurveda Department at Holy Family Hospital is equipped with all the necessary facilities to provide authentic and effective Ayurvedic treatments in a safe and comfortable setting. We offer:
- Therapeutic Rooms: Our department has serene, private therapy rooms designed for a calm and healing atmosphere. Each room is equipped with traditional Ayurvedic wooden massage tables, steam chambers, and essential equipment to ensure the highest standards of care.
- Herbal Pharmacy: We maintain a fully stocked herbal pharmacy that prepares fresh medicinal oils, powders, and decoctions from pure, organic herbs for personalized treatments.
- Steam Therapy Chambers: Steam therapy, or Swedana, is an integral part of detoxification treatments. Our steam chambers help open the pores, allowing medicinal oils and herbs to penetrate deeply into the body and cleanse toxins.
- Yoga and Meditation Area: To complement our Ayurvedic treatments, we offer a dedicated space for yoga and meditation, providing patients with mental relaxation and enhancing their healing process.
Our Ayurveda department is led by a highly experienced team of doctors and therapists who specialize in holistic care. Each team member is committed to helping patients achieve optimal health through personalized treatment plans based on their individual needs.
