Discover the principles, therapies, and collected knowledge of a venerable ancient healing system. Ayurveda provides a threefold approach to wellness: 1.) Preventive a concept of health care and personal hygiene meant for every person; 2.) Psychological an approach to dealing with essential and challenging aspects of life; 3.) Curative a medical science with a holistic view of health and disease, offering extensive methods of cure. This comprehensive reference to a natural system of medicine will guide you on your way to addressing specific health concerns and improving overall wellbeing.
HANS H. RHYNER (Germany) received a doctorate in alternative medicine and philosophy in India and led his own clinic in Bangalore for more than twenty years. He is revered as a pioneer in India and in Europe for his work adapting and integrating classical Ayurveda with the spiritual and holistic understanding of the West.
