One man's medicine is another man's poison. Ayurveda treats the individual, not just the disease.
What is Prakriti?
Your Prakriti is your unique genetic and metabolic constitution, determined at the moment of conception. It is a specific ratio of the three fundamental biological energies, or Doshas: Vata (movement/air), Pitta (metabolism/fire), and Kapha (structure/water). No two people have the exact same Prakriti, which is why a diet that helps your friend lose weight might cause you to gain it.
Why Prakriti Analysis Matters
In modern medicine, a headache is generally treated with the same pill regardless of who has the headache. In Ayurveda, a Vata headache (dry, throbbing), a Pitta headache (sharp, burning, behind the eyes), and a Kapha headache (dull, heavy, sinus-related) require entirely different treatments. Knowing your Prakriti is the only way to accurately diagnose the root cause of your illness.
Personalizing Your Treatment at AyurCity
At AyurCity, every patient undergoes a comprehensive Prakriti analysis—which includes Nadi Pariksha (pulse diagnosis)—before a single herb is prescribed. This ensures that your diet plan, your herbal medications, and any Panchakarma therapies are perfectly aligned with your body's natural tendencies, resulting in faster and more permanent healing.
