INTRODUCTION TO AYURVEDA

Learn about the Maharishi Ayur-Veda program, the powerful foundation for all of the treatment programs at The Raj. Find out about the comprehensive revival of India's 6000 year old system oAyurvedic Herbsf natural medicine. What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda is the world's most ancient system of preventive health  care. Developed in India over 6,000 years ago. Ayurveda (which translates as "knowledge of life") is a natural approach to creating balance and strengthening the body's healing abilities. How does Ayurveda work?  Ayurveda enlivens the inner intelligence of the body and strengthens its natural healing ability. According to Ayurveda disease is primarily the result of imbalances and impurities that accumulate in the body over time. The specialty of Ayurveda is in diagnosing imbalances at an early stage, before symptoms of disease arise, eliminating those imbalances from the body, and teaching each person how to live a healthy, balanced life.

ROYAL BEAUTY TREATMENT PROGRAM

Under the guidance of Ayurvedic skin care experts, The Raj offers treatments which can be traced back to the palaces of ancient India. This program creates balance from deep within the tissues, gently removing impurities while nourishing the skin with herbs, milk, and flower essences. Special muds imported from the remote hillsides of India help remove toxins without damaging delicate skin tissues.

Beauty is more than skin deep. Many problems with skinMud Treatment and hair today are due to stress, environmental toxins, and accelerated aging caused by accumulated imbalances. The modern medical approach focuses on temporarily relieving symptoms, but not correcting underlying imbalances. The Royal Beauty Treatment Program at The Raj transforms the internal functioning of the physiology to create radiant health, thereby addressing both inner and outer beauty.

The Raj Royal Beauty Treatment program very gently reestablishes balance between all three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) to create a lustrous complexion. When impurities in the skin are eliminated too quickly, the structure of the skin can be weakened. The Royal Beauty treatments simultaneously replace the impurities with nutritious molecules of floral water, milk and herbs.

Three specially trained technicians work with each guest, applying only the freshest and purest ingredients to give a truly royal and uniquely effective skin program. Pre-treatment procedures are not required with this program.

TESTIMONIALS

My husband and I make the journey from Florida to The Raj in Iowa at least twice a year. For me, arriving at The Raj is like envisioning a mirage -- only it is for real! With all of its simple elegance and beauty, it is truly unsurpassed. From the moment I arrive, every possible consideration is geared toward restoring health and wholeness and supporting wellness and rejuvenation. Under the direction of state-of-the-art medical director Dr. Nancy Londforf, technicians exquisitely trained in the tradition of Maharishi Ayurveda appear to magically enable me to alleviate stress at many different levels.  An awesome group of chefs, under the direction of head chef Virat Vig, from India, create a delectable array of sumptuous vegetarian specialties. Everything at The Raj is designed with the ultimate objective of increasing inner harmony and balance in one's life -- to create bliss and well-being. And an attentive staff to accommodate and pave the way from arrival to departure makes it a truly incredible journey! -- Virginia W.,  May 2003
