Ayurveda is for anyone who wants to (re)find their balance and become an actor in their health.
The natural healing power that is within each of us can be supported by a healthy lifestyle tailored to our individual needs. Each person being "unique" in their specificities Ayurveda is based on timeless and universal principles to offer each of us a beneficial lifestyle, diet and practices that will contribute to our general physical and psychological well-being.
More than a medicine, Ayurveda is an art of living and a philosophy that enables everyone to reveal their best potential and aspire to a long, rich and meaningful life. Ayurveda does not treat the symptoms, but seeks to understand and stop the root causes of the manifestation of these symptoms for a given individual.
Therefore, it is an individual, causal and very comprehensive approach.
Ayurveda uses three main tools: 
Food Lifestyle (daily routines...) Plants and other medicinal substances
Yes, Ayurveda is very focused on prevention, it also offers powerful tools to improve existing pathologies, both acute and chronic.

fundamental principles
- Ayurveda is based on the theory of the 5 elements.
- Ether (Akasha) - subtle space
- The air (Vayu)
- Fire (Agni)
- The Earth (Prithivi)
- Water (Pull)
These elements make up the universe (macrocosm) and create the human body (microcosm). So we have all the elements within us and we are the reflection of the universe.
The doshas, bases of the Ayurvedic constitution
The 5 elements combine to give rise to 3 biological humours, 3 great vital forces that make up the body, make it work and destroy it: The Doshas
Vata , the wind, is a combination of the air and ether elements. It is the dosha that characterizes the movement, the driving force. Vata is found primarily in the colon, nervous system, skin, ears, and bones. It controls all the movements of the body, such as the heartbeat and breathing. It is a rather cold and dry energy. In balance, it is expressed by fluidity, creativity, alertness of mind. When out of balance, it creates fear, anxiety, and irregularity.
Pitta , fire, is a combination of the elements fire and water. It is the dosha that characterizes transformation, metabolism. This humor is found mainly in the liver, small intestine, blood, and eyes. It is a hot and humid energy. It controls digestion, absorption, assimilation, body temperature. In balance, it is expressed by tenacity, intelligence, sharpness. When out of balance, it creates anger, frustration, hatred, and inflammatory states.
Kapha is a combination of water and earth. It is the dosha that connects and sustains, the structuring force. It is mainly housed in the stomach, lungs, tongue, plasma. It is a cold and wet energy. Manages the lubrication of the body, hydration, the immune system. In balance, it is an energy that creates love, kindness, forgiveness. Out of balance, it generates attachment, possession, greed and congestion in the body.
The Ayurvedic constitution of each person is characterized by a specific combination of these 3 doshas that is unique to us. Depending on the doshas or doshas that dominate, the physical and psychological type to which the patient belongs ( Prakriti ) can be determined.
When the doshas become unbalanced, dysfunctions and diseases appear. Ayurveda restores the balance that is unique to each individual and maintains the optimal state of health of the body.
Finding this state of balance and optimal health , your vital energy potential, requires a full Ayurvedic evaluation to take stock of the constitution from birth and imbalances and opt for personalized techniques to restore harmony. This includes lifestyle advice, dietary advice, meditation exercises, breathing, yoga, massage, etc.
Ayurveda was developed as a system for diagnosing imbalances in the body and mind that eventually manifest as illnesses, ailments, and other symptoms. It is therefore a question of restoring balance in the body thanks to a lifestyle adapted to the person, the use of herbal formulas and other adapted natural remedies.
Its function is to provide specific knowledge and practices so that the body and mind can be in harmony and in good shape.
Ayurveda teaches us that to be healthy we need a good body function, but we need to combine physical health with mental and emotional health . This involves understanding the lifestyle that works best for us by adapting our diet, sleep, communications, interactions, and much more.
