Sama Ayurveda is a holistic healthcare center that uses the knowledge of the 5000-year-old ancient Indian medical system.

In Sanskrit, Sama means balance and Ayurveda is made of 2 words: Ayur + Veda, meaning life + knowledge, so Sama Ayurveda means the knowledge to balance life.

At Sama Ayurveda, we also focus on balancing the mind by using Pranayama in addition to a balanced diet & lifestyle and incorporation of herbs, panchakarma, and other therapies.
