  • I will work with you through a collaborative process to develop a personalized program regarding:

    A. What we can contribute toward the achievement of your health and wellness objectives

    B. What you are willing and able to do to contribute toward the achievement of your health and wellness objectives

    C. How we can cooperate together to assist you in activating your plan to achieve your health and wellness objectives

  • An Ayurvedic Consultation typically consists of three general steps

    1. Assessment
    This includes a determination of your basic Ayurvedic constitution and your current condition and imbalances, a discussion of your concerns and reason for your visit, and jointly exploring your health history and past treatment results.

    2. Findings
    The practitioner will analyze the assessment results and compile information to be reviewed with you to be used in a collaborative process to plan your health improvement program.

    3. Recommendations
    The practitioner will offer recommendations based on your health concerns, goals, and current condition.

    This is tailored to your unique needs with the intention of assisting you to shift from your current state of imbalance toward your optimum balance. This may include information and instruction on diet and eating habits, lifestyle, yoga, exercise, meditation, breathing practices, and other health improvement practices.

    Then, together, you and the practitioner will establish a workable program for you to implement, and achieve your short-term and long-term health improvement goals.

  • There are many instances when acute conditions and the disease process can best be treated with standard, conventional medicine or surgery.
