Ayurvedic Consultation in Scarborough

An Ayurvedic consultation at Aara Holistic Wellness Clinic in Scarborough is a one-to-one conversation with our Ayurvedic practitioner about your health history, digestion, sleep, stress and goals, followed by a personalized plan that may include therapies, diet and routine guidance.

What happens at an Ayurvedic consultation

1. Your story. We ask about your health history, current symptoms, medications, digestion, sleep, energy and stress, and what you hope to achieve.
2. Assessment. We look at your constitution (dosha: Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and how your current balance may be affecting how you feel.
3. Your plan. We explain what we found and propose a realistic plan. It may include warm-oil therapies, diet and routine guidance, or a course of Panchakarma. Nothing is started until you understand it and agree.
4. Review. We agree when to check progress and change the plan if it is not helping.

Our approach

• Personalized, not a package. The plan is built around your history, your assessment and your goals, not a fixed menu.
• Honest about limits. Ayurveda is a traditional system. Research on it is limited and results vary, so we do not promise cures. See Ayurveda in Ontario: safety and questions to ask.
• Alongside medical care. We work as a complement to your doctor, not a replacement. Tell us about every condition and medication.
• Safety first. Some therapies are not suitable for everyone, so we assess before we recommend. See is Panchakarma safe and who should wait.

Therapies your plan may include

• Abhyanga (Kerala-style warm herbal-oil massage)
• Shirodhara, a steady stream of warm oil over the forehead
• Kati Basti and Janu Basti, warm oil on the lower back or knees
• Swedanam herbal steam and herbal poultice
• Panchakarma, a guided programme of preparation, cleansing measures and recovery

Frequently asked questions

What is an Ayurvedic consultation?

A one-to-one conversation about your health history, digestion, sleep, stress and goals, with an assessment of your constitution (dosha), followed by a personalized plan.

What is my dosha and how is it assessed?

Dosha describes your constitution in Ayurveda: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. We assess it by asking about your health, habits and symptoms and by observation. It guides the plan and is not a medical diagnosis.

Do I need a consultation before Panchakarma or other treatments?

Panchakarma always starts with a consultation. For single treatments such as Abhyanga, we will talk with you first so the treatment is suitable.

How much does an Ayurvedic consultation cost in Scarborough?

Call or text 647-622-4114 for our current fees and session length.

Is an Ayurvedic consultation covered by insurance?

Generally no. Ayurveda is a traditional wellness service and is not typically insurance-eligible in Ontario.

Can I combine Ayurveda with my doctor's treatment?

Often yes, but tell your doctor and your practitioner about everything you take. Ayurveda should complement medical care, not replace it.
