The treatment of Ayurveda is
based on Indian herbs, which have a healing energy.Herbs have a unique flavor
and intoxicating aroma, which contribute to their medicinal quality.
Ayurveda
it is also based on the theory of "Tridosha", somewhat like the
"humours" of the Greeks. The three "doshas" represent
combinations of the five elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether (or
space), giving rise to the three basic constitutions of the human body.
The three "doshas" are Vata (a combination of
Air and Ether); Pitta (a combination of Fire and Water) and Kapha (a
combination of Earth and Water). The three doshas not only determine individual
constitution, but our physical form and other attributes, our mental make-up
and even individual metabolic processes. Most constitutions, however, result
from the combination of two "doshas", with one being more
predominant. All traits and even individual metabolism can be classified under
the 3 doshas. However, most of us belong to dual dosha types and have traits of
both the doshas, although traits of one dosha may be more prominent.
