The Ayurveda Experience provides educational consultancy related to Ayurveda. None of the consultants are licensed physicians, nor is Ayurvedic practice licensed in the state. In order to use our Ayurvedic lifestyle counseling services, it is important that you acknowledge receipt of the information provided in this form and that you sign it, keep a copy for you, and that we keep the one for us for at least three years. Please complete and sign this form, then save it to your device.

Ayurvedic lifestyle modifications are an alternative or complementary educational approach to health and wellness which focuses on achieving the appropriate balance required for optimal health in the areas of lifestyle (diet & nutrition, physical fitness, etc.), mental well-being (stress reduction, healthy relationships, etc.), and spirituality (religious beliefs, personal philosophies, character development).  
As practitioners of Ayurveda, the Consultants will provide you with personal consultations that are educational in nature. Recommendations will be based on your personal needs and unique body and mind profile. Our practitioners may suggest you to read an article or book, inform you about certain vitamins, minerals, herbs, or other supplements, and teach you about how certain changes to your lifestyle or outlook may improve your health and wellness.  
Their advice may include lifestyle adjustments, dietary changes, herbs, music therapy, and other natural therapeutics. In order to successfully implement these Ayurvedic principles into your life, frequent regular follow-ups are recommended. 
If you are suffering from a disease or symptom that has not been evaluated by a Medical Doctor or another licensed health care professional, we recommend that you receive a proper evaluation from a licensed medical practitioner license to do so. 
The consultants will be evaluating the findings from an Ayurvedic perspective only and not from a Western medical perspective. This examination does not take the place of a medical evaluation.  

NOTE: At any time, should you feel your health is in danger, you should seek immediate attention from a registered and licensed physician.
