Most of India's
ancient wisdom and heritage might have been lost due
to utter neglect, but Kerala can boost of not only
preserving the ancient medicinal system of Ayurveda,
but even converting the same into a lucrative
industry having the potential of curing a myriad of
diseases. Developing way back in 600 BC in our own
wondrous land, Ayurveda stresses on maintaining the
right balance of the body's elements-vata, pitta and
kapha to keep diseases at bay. Ayurveda believes in
treating the body as a whole, not any individual
part separately. Kerala can be regarded as the only
state in India which practises this system full
fledgedly and with great dedication. What makes
Kerala a hub of Ayurveda is the abundance of herbs
and medicinal plants found in the region. Coupled
with that is Kerala's rainy weather and nice
climate. The monsoon season (June-November) attracts
the most number of people for seeking ayurvedic
relief. Kerala's ayurvedic treatment can be divided
into two broad categories-rejuvenating and
therapeutic.

includes massage with medicated oils and creams on
the face and head and also steam bath. Body

treatment done to rid the body of rheumatic pains
and tone up body muscles.
Yogasanas, meditation, panchakarama treatment,
beauty care and body slimming are other rejuvenative
forms of treatment that are available.

diseases including chronic ones. The treatment
differs from disease to disease. The treatment is

foreigners come in large numbers to avail the

facilities offered at the centres.
