Starting this March schedule your private evaluation
Ayurveda and Yoga are one of many branches of ancient Indian Vedic practices. Uma Purighalla MD has decided to switch gears, as she has recently retired from her Internal Medicine practice of 24 years. Instead, she is using her training in the Vedic art of healthy living for those interested in learning what Ayurveda suggests to improve overall wellbeing based on one's unique constitution. This private session is an alternative/complementary practice and not intended for conventional medical care.
What's entailed?
Given that everyone’s body/mind constitution is unique, the participant will be required to complete a dosha questionnaire, dietary form, and health history form 48 hours prior to the session. Mindfulness practices, physical activity suggestions and dietary/herbal advice can be adjusted to both Western and Eastern palates. This session will typically take one hour provided that the participant has submitted all the forms prior to the session. Payment required to finalize booking appointment ($120 dollars for the first hour and $30 dollars for every additional half hour of each session. Full refund given with at least 24-hour cancellation notification. No show or late cancellation fee is 40 dollars.
