At ACM we believe your health and well being should always come foremost regardless of being stressed from a fast paced lifestyle. Presently the way our medical system works, it has increased toxicity in our bodies rather than building our immune system. At ACM we present five non-toxic treatment systems of the world which build your auto immune system and natural immunity to diseases, which afflict us all in one way or the other.

Hence the knowledge of east and west has the answers to all misunderstood symptoms, stresses states, diseases and all mental conditions which can be non toxically treated by the five systems listed below:

Tibetan medicine
Aryurvedic medicine
Unani medicine
Herbal medicine
Chinese medicine

Each of the above systems has its own various therapies and herbal medicines.

In our first good news message we are going to explain the Aryurvedic medical systems, as explaining all the other systems listed would require quite a detailed section.

What is Eastern Medicine?

yogaAyurveda means 'Science of Life' and has its origin in the Vedas, the world's oldest books of medical knowledge. Ayurveda has been practiced for the last 5000 years and is therefore one of the first healing sciences in the world. It is a three-dimensional healing system and explains how the interaction between body, mind and spirit can be predicted, balanced and improved to enable us to stay or become healthy and Vigorous.

Ayurveda is a medical system and a way of life. It has a deep connection with Yoga and its daily and seasonal regimes, a knowledge we have mostly forgotten in the West.

According to Ayurveda all living and non-living things on earth are made up of the five elements: ether, air, fire, water and earth. The balance or imbalance of these elements in a body gives a person an individual constitution called the "Tri Dosha" (the three dynamic forces): Vata, Pitta and Kapha. It is these dynamic forces that are responsible for sustaining life or disrupting the functions of the body. The way to health is to harness these forces effectively.

What Eastern Medicine can offer you..

It can help you with a wide range of diseases, and even better, it can help preventing diseases to occur.

optimising your digestion.
balancing your bodily and mental functions.

Once you know your constitution, you will be able to be your own doctor.

How does Eastern Medicine work?

The three doshas or bodily functions (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) are responsible for your constitution. They make up your physical and mental character. They are responsible for specific diseases we develop, for our habits, behaviours, cravings and emotions. Ayurveda gives you the key to understand these functions and to balance them. The imbalance of the three bodily functions (Tri Doshas) are mostly created by internal (diet), external (seasonal and environmental) influences and mental factors. Ayurveda prevents imbalance and cures disease through the knowledge of the person's individual constitution and their needs, desires and aversions.
