Ayurveda

Ayurveda comes from the ancient Indian science of life practices. It  relates all things to an elemental system of earth, water, fire, air, and ether. In order to heal and return ourselves to our true and most healthy self we examine the body, mind, and spirit through the diet, routine, and lifestyle we choose for our paths. Ayurveda realizes that each person cannot be cured in the same way and that by understanding the root cause of imbalance in each individual we can find what we each need for ultimate health, happiness, and realization.

I was drawn to Ayurveda as a means to continue the sacred traditions and healing practices my parents taught to me as a child. I became a Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner, Ayurvedic Bodyworker, and PanchaKarma Technician in 2016 after completing several years of education and internships at the Kanyakumari School of Ayurveda and Yoga. I am continuing my education as a student of the 5 year Parashara Jyotish Course from DBC school in India. I also support my community as a board member for the Ayurvedic Association of Wisconsin and with community based classes. I meet clients mostly online since 2021, however have a small number of students and clients that meet me at my home healing studio.

I am currently available for new client dosha analysis, complex imbalance consultations, personalized balance and cleanse plans, a small number of in-person treatments and to lecture and teach classes on Ayurveda, food, meditation, movement and various other vedic topics.

Wellness Consultations:

Questions will include family history, lifestyle and diet, as well as your past and current tendencies. I will also look at your tongue, listen to your pulse, and check you pH via a saliva test. Initial consultations will require 1-2 hours to complete, after which we will schedule our Report of Findings to occur approximately 1-2 weeks from our initial meeting. During the Report of Findings I will provide the doshic percentage I have identified for your natural balance as well as information regarding what imbalance may be causing your current symptoms.

I will also answer any questions you have during this time and we will schedule a follow up visit for approximately 3 weeks in the future.
