FAQ's
WHAT IS AYURVED?
Much before allopathy and homeopathy came an ancient Indian science called Ayurved that relied entirely on nature’s bounty for its cures. Ayurved is the traditional, time-tested science of healing with herbs, fruits and minerals that are plentifully available in nature . It is one of the oldest scientific medical systems in the world, with a long record of clinical expertise of famous Ayurvedic sages like Dhanvantri, Sushruta and Charaka, whose legacy was further carried on by Vaids or Ayurvedic doctors. The word “Ayu” denotes all aspects of life from birth to death. The word “Veda” means knowledge or learning. Hence Ayurved indicates a science by which life, in its totality, is deeply understood. At Search Wellness we rely on 150 years of painstaking research done by the Vaidya family that has given us our proprietary formulations.
HOW IS AYURVED DIFFERENT FROM ALLOPATHIC/MODERN MEDICINES?
Modern medicine treats the symptoms in the short term, rather than addressing the root cause of a patient’s suffering. Ayurved on the other hand, makes its special contributions by addressing the uniqueness of each patient and by helping each body to heal from the root cause of the ailment. Thus, Ayurved looks at a longer term solution to patient suffering in comparison with modern medicine.

WHAT IS NEW AGE AYURVED?
At Search Wellness we are looking to revolutionize the way Ayurvedic products are marketed. We aim to create new age products that make Ayurved cool, sexy, fun and aspirational for the modern consumer in a form that is appealing and convenient. We aim to give this traditional science a modern twist.
Yoga is an ancient Indian art form that was taken by the West, packaged in a modern form and now, (with yoga mats and yoga apparel) it is a USD 36b industry. We believe that Ayurved is at this inflection point and our desire is to help grow this science globally through a new age approach.
WHY IS AYURVED UNIQUE AS COMPARED TO OTHER SYSTEMS OF MEDICINE?
It is one of the oldest scientific medical systems in the world, with a long record of clinical experience from Ayurvedic sages and scriptures. Other than being a form of medicine, Ayurved is also a way of life that teaches us how to maintain healthy human systems and longevity. Ayurved treats man as a “whole” – which is a combination of body, mind and soul. Therefore it is a truly holistic and integrative medical system.
WHAT KIND OF AILMENTS DOES SEARCH WELLNESS CATER TO?
Ayurved has proven very effective for a vast majority of diseases which affect the body, including skin diseases, ailments of the bones and joints (e.g. Arthritis etc.), diabetes and other hormone related diseases, nervous system disorders like paralysis, epilepsy etc. It has become popular in treatment of cases related to decreased vitality.

ARE AYURVEDIC MEDICINES USED FOR CHRONIC AILMENTS ONLY?
A large number of people look towards allopathy for a cure to an ailment. When the results are negative, they turn to Ayurved. By this time the disease becomes chronic. Therefore there is a misconception that Ayurvedic drugs cannot be used for minor ailments like cold, cough, fever, acidity, loose motions and other aches and pains. At Search Wellness we have formulations that do treat such minor, non-chronic ailments as well.
