What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is the traditional system of medicine originating in India more than 5,000 years ago. It provides an integrated approach to the prevention and treatment of illness through lifestyle interventions and a wide range of natural therapies.
Ayurveda translates in Sanskrit as knowledge of life (ayur means "life," and veda means "knowledge"). Ayurvedic Theory states that
all physical manifestations of disease as due to the imbalance of three basic physiological principles in the body, called doshas, which are -- vata, pitta, and kapha.
The Ayurvedic practitioner uses yoga, breathing exercises and meditative techniques. These are used to improve both physical health and personal consciousness. In addition, herbal preparations are added to the patient's diet as as preventives and rejuvenate purposes as well as for the treatment of specific disorders.


History of Ayurveda
Ayurveda is the oldest system of medicine in the world. The ancient Classic Atharva Veda (800 B.C.) lists the Eight Divisions of Ayurveda: Internal Medicine, Surgery of Head and Neck, Opthamology and Otorinolaryngology, Surgery, Toxicology, Psychiatry, Pediatrics, Geriatrics and the Gynecology. Around 500 B.C., Sushruta, a surgeon who developed the operative techniques of rhinoplasty (plastic surgery), wrote the Sushruta Samhita which describes a highly developed surgery. In l00 A.D., the physician Charaka revised and supplemented the Atreya Samhita; the Charaka Samhita is a major work on internal medicine.
By 400 A.D., Ayurvedic works were translated into Chinese; by 700 A.D., Chinese scholars were studying medicine in India at Nalanda University. Indian thoughts, as well as influencing Chinese spirituality and philosophy through Buddhism, greatly influenced Chinese medicine and herbology through Ayurveda. In 800 A.D., Ayurvedic works were translated into Arabic. A century later, under physicians such as Avicenna and Razi Serapion, both of whom quoted Indian texts, Islamic medicine became very influential in Europe, helping to form the foundation of the European tradition in medicine.
          In the modern world, Ayurveda is increasingly popular because it speaks to those elementary concepts of (1) contact with nature, (2) holism, and (3) we are what we eat. Ayurveda forms an integral part of the daily regimen of hundreds of millions of people worldwide.


Ayurveda Philosophy
Ayurveda views the person as a composite of 3 forces:
1. Vata the force symbolized by Air.
2. Pitta the force symbolized by Fire.
3. Kapha the force symbolized by Water.

The concept of constitution (prakriti) is central to Ayurveda. Individuals are comprised of the 3 forces (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) in unique combinations so that no 2 persons are alike. The constitutional determination provides insight into the deeper workings of an individual. With this it is possible to become aware of the foods, spices, herbal medicines, emotions, thoughts, climates, colors, activities and so on that tend to either balance or unbalance a particular individual and to either improve or aggravate various types of illness.


Education
The practice of Ayurveda is not regulated in the U.S. and there is no national standard of required compliance for Ayurvedic colleges. Each institution creates its own guidelines for training and certifying practitioners. Ayurveda can be studied through correspondence programs or on-site training programs. Anoo’s teaches how to do Indian Ayurvedic Facials using Herbs. Each Esthetician learns the treatment and practices on 3 people to get certified to practice these treatments.

Principle of Ayurveda:

According to ayurvedic philosophy an individual bundle of `spirit’, desirous of expressing itself, uses subjective consciousness or Satwa to manifest sense organs and a mind. Spirit and mind then project themselves into a physical body, created from the five (Pancha) great (maha) eternal elements (bhutas) – together called the Panchamahabhutas –, which arise from Tamas. The sense organs then using Rajas to project from the body into the external world to experience their objects. The body becoming the mind’s vehicle, its physical instrument for sense gratification.
The Bhutas combine into "tridoshas" or bioenergetics forces that govern and determine our health or physical condition. While the three gunas (Rajas or activity, Tamas or inertia and Satwa, which balances the first two) or psychic forces determine our mental and spiritual health. Ayurveda is thus a holistic system of health care that teaches us to balance these energies in order to achieve optimum health and well-being.

These books explain about the ingredients and the herbs used by ancient Indians King’s and Queen’s to beautify their skin. Some herbs were also taken from the Ayurveda. These herbs works on the skin externally, disinfects and purifies the skin. Anoo’s have been brought-up with all these herbs since childhood, thus Anoo’s know all the benefits of these herbs. Since 1982 they have been using these herbs for their treatments on their clients. Some treatments created by Anoo’s are derived from the ancient Indian history-Ayurveda. Regular clients feedback on the results helped us to elevate our self in this field. One of the famous Ancient scalp massages is being practiced in India since many years and is also being taught in all the Beauty Schools.
