Ayurvedic Beauty Treatments
-
Ayurveda is the Indian system of philosophy and healing developed over thousands of years. Ayurveda uses herbs and botanical ingredients to heal and repair the body. These treatments do not carry the same health risks as chemical products purchased at the store. Facial treatments can be made with milk, fruit juice, raw vegetables and cooking oils. One example would be an acne wash that uses equal amounts of lemon juice and rose water. Apply the mixture to the affected skin and leave on for one hour before rinsing off. Ayurvedic beauty tips will help you keep your skin vibrant, glowing and acne free using all-natural ingredients.

Aromatherapy is one category of natural home remedies and has been practiced in India for more than 1,000 years. Aromatherapy uses essential oils to rejuvenate and balance the systems of the body.

Yoga, a traditional Indian health care system, started as a method of healing the body through self enlightenment. Yoga treatments can heal diseases, balance the body, remedy sleep disorders, relieve stress and much more. Yoga promotes mental, spiritual, emotional, social and physical health through exercise and natural healing techniques. Proper yoga therapy involves daily commitment and a trained yoga therapy practitioner's guidance. Weekly yoga classes are suitable for those only needing the fitness aspect of the science. One type of body cleansing yoga technique is sutra neti, which cleans nasal passages and sinus cavities and removes bacteria.
