Ayurvedic Treatments

Treatments are prescribed, not selected.

Ayurvedic treatments are procedures used as part of an individual
plan of care. After consultation, the physician decides which
treatment is appropriate, how it is carried out, and how often
it is repeated.

Before You Choose a Treatment

Start with the consultation, not the
treatment name.

Reading about a treatment can help you understand what happens
during it, but it does not determine whether that treatment is
appropriate for you.

Your physician will assess your individual needs first and
recommend what should form part of your care from there.
