Ayurveda is a traditional system of medicine originating in India over 3,000 years ago, based on the idea of balancing three bodily energies (doshas: vata, pitta, kapha) through diet, herbal remedies, lifestyle practices, and treatments like massage (abhyanga) and detoxification (panchakarma). Practitioners and enthusiasts use it as a holistic approach to wellness, focusing on prevention and individualized treatment based on body type. It remains widely practiced in India and has gained popularity globally as complementary or alternative medicine.
