Ayurveda: natural healthcare in London
What: The ancient natural healing of ayurveda can treat digestive problems (constipation, gas and bloating, IBS, IBD, candida, etc), skin conditions, PMS, low energy, stress and anxiety, insomnia, weight management and more. Also: health and nutrition overhaul to keep you healthy when well, and prevent disease. Can ayurveda help me?
How: Ayurveda is probably the world's oldest and most comprehensive system of holistic healing, dating back thousands of years. It treats and restores balance to the whole person; your mind, emotions and energy as well as the physical body and disease symptoms. It uses:
wholesome and tasty foods, herbal medicine and natural remedies, correct lifestyle choices (your sleep, exercise, job etc), yoga and meditation, and massage and physical therapies. About the consultation.
Who: I am an ayurvedic nutritionist, based at Maitri Natural Health Centre in south London. The clinic is easily reached from Clapham, Battersea, Balham, Crystal Palace, Dulwich, Victoria. Jacqui Gibbons: view profile.
My approach: Ayurveda is simply a way of living more in tune with nature. Although centuries old, I believe it is now more relevant than ever with today's hectic lifestyles, mental overstimulation, our consumer society and the 24/7 food culture. I take time to understand your unique combination of physical body, emotional state, digestion, symptoms and energy. My goal is to help you understand all these for yourself and restore you to health - to your true state of happiness, enthusiasm and vitality. I have tried-and-tested, practical ways of incorporating ayurveda into your daily life, so that you can still live an urban lifestyle, but one that is healthy, fulfilling and happy.
I also provide ayurvedic massage, Shirodhara and skin-balancing facial massage (all subject to availability).
