The initial consult takes about 2 hours with a discussion of your unique physical and psychological constitution, symptoms, medical history, pulse and tongue analysis, current lifestyle to get a complete understanding of your unique needs and the nature of any imbalance.
Amongst other assesments, the initial session includes an assessment of your Ayurvedic constitution, known as Prakriti. Prakriti is the proportionate strength of each of the doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) that give rise to the unique person that you are. It is said that the Prakriti never changes. Knowledge of your Prakriti allows you to better care for yourself, understand which foods and cooking methods are best for you, how to stay in balance throughout the year and through each stage of life. It also helps us to predict and prevent health issues, and how to better manage the imbalances you currently have.
