Ayurvedic massages are used to help prevent hair loss, tension headaches, insomnia etc.

Ayurveda is a concept stemmed from thousands of years of practice in India. The root words ayus and veda stand for life and system of knowledge respectively, and together mean the Science of Longevity.

According to ‘Vaidyar’ Mani M. Veerappan at Ancient’s Best Clinic, understanding Ayurveda - that everyone is not the same and should thus be accorded different health treatments - will help one ameliorate their health and gain happiness via the balancing of their humours (body, mind and consciousness).

Ayurveda focuses on prevention rather than treatment of symptoms; for example, Ayurveda medicine lessens and reverses the effects of atherosclerosis. A combination of Ayurvedic herbs (such as Winter Cherry, Boswellia, and Tumeric) and yoga can help lessen pain and arthritis. Generally, the cost of the consultations range from US$40 to S$60, while the cost of Ayurvedic herbs varies with the treatment required.

Ayurveda massages, such as the head massages - Moordha taila – where Ayurvedic massage oils are applied in different ways to the head, help attenuate stress, strengthen the nervous system, improve blood circulation and prevent hair loss. The Abhyanga Body treatment effectively prevents and corrects aging. The price of these massages range from US$80 to US$120.
