Ayurveda is an ancient form of natural medicine that originated in the Indian subcontinent and evolved over two millennia. It is believed that Ayurveda grew into an exact science during the Vedic era. Sages and learned men in those simpler times were keenly attuned to nature and developed an intrinsic knowledge of healing herbs and practices that will ensure a long and healthy life of any individual. After all, Ayurveda literally means Knowledge of Life!
The basis of Ayurveda is the three doshas or biological energies associated with the human body. It postulates that the three doshas – vata, pitta, and kapha – have to be kept in balance or samyatva to ensure good health. Any imbalance among these three elements results in illness. The treatment prescribed by Ayurveda for any disease is thus focussed on bringing these energies back into balance.
Skin, being the largest organ in the human anatomy and its most external, has a special place in Ayurveda. Some of the ancient practices proposed by this natural science for maintaining healthy skin are being practiced all the way now in modern times too. Several spas are offering Ayurvedic massage in Chennai.
Ayurveda shows that human skin is at its glowing when the body is free of toxins. So clean the body from inside on out with a healthy diet. Water-rich fruits and vegetables have a way of flushing out unwanted wastes and toxins from the body. Nuts and seeds are great sources of omega-3 fatty acids and other skin-nourishing components.
Ayurveda also introduces many natural herbs and with healing powers, which when infused into essential oils and massaged into the body do wonders for your skin. It talks about srotas or channels that transport fluids all over the body and how oil massages and fomentation help in opening them up and regulating flow through them. Aromatic oils are thus a crucial component of Ayurvedic massages and treatments. Be it a head massage or a full body deep tissue massage therapy, these treatments leave a lingering positive effect on the body and mind. Modern spas make extensive use of aromatic oils and body wraps to condition and nurture the skin.
Keep yourself active with an exercise or fitness routine, at least for 30 minutes, three times a week. Improved blood circulation and sweating during physical exertion are another excellent way to get rid of the toxin buildup in your body. Your skin will thank you for it!
Stress can play havoc on your skin – pimples, rashes, and hives are often triggered by it. So, incorporate some breathing exercises into your fitness regimen too. Deep breathing techniques calm your body, mind, and soul, and keeps harmful stress at bay.
There is a reason why beauty sleep is called so. Having uninterrupted sleep of at least seven hours a day is a must for healthy, glowing skin. Your body needs the downtime to replenish, repair and rejuvenate its skin cells and leave you looking fresh and healthy in the morning.
We can thus see how relevant Ayurveda still is today when it comes to skin and beauty treatments. It is no wonder that most spas in Chennai have picked on those benefits and have started applying them to their beauty and skin care techniques.
