| Native to India, Ayurveda is the ancient medicinal form, developed during the Vedic times, about 5000 years ago. The word 'Ayur' means life, while 'Veda' means science. Therefore, Ayurveda literally means the 'Science of Life'. It is not just a medicinal system, but also a way of life. Ayurveda deals with the physical, as well as spiritual health. The medicinal form is governed by the laws of nature, which suggest that life is a combination of senses, mind, body and soul. According to the Science of Life, the structural aspect of every individual comprises five elements - earth, water, fire, air and space.
