We care for your well being and quality of life
At Yogaksema stress and lifestyle clinic ,we bring in two decades of clinical experience in Traditional Medicine and
results of extensive scientific research in Traditional Medicine to evolve
safe, effective, and authentic evidence based traditional s treatments and
services combined with conventional medicine exclusively to heal and empower you, to help you to take charge of your health.
Specialised clinics
1.Stress Clinic
Nowadays stress is almost
inevitable for people at different stages in their life from childhood to old
age. Mental stress is now well recognized to lead to physical symptoms and
disease.
The key to managing many of these
potentially life threatening diseases is prevention.
For this it is necessary to detect early psychological and physical signs of
stress. At the stress clinic we would be carrying out tests such as heart rate
variability (one of the earliest signs of cardiac ill health), monitoring other
changes which occur when stressed (for example breathing becomes irregular and
shallow), as well as checking your
rating of
(i) the factors which could have caused you stress,
(ii) the physical
and psychological symptoms you feel as a result, and
(iii) the way(s) in which
you cope with stress. This would help us to devise a stress relief program to
meet your special needs.
2. Lifestyle Clinic
The
word ‘lifestyle’ is rather over used nowadays. Most of us are aware that there
are both healthy and unhealthy lifestyles, with the former being obviously
desirable. Almost all magazines, newspaper supplements and TV programs have
suggestions about what constitutes a healthy lifestyle. However what most people want to know is which of these suggestions
have been proven by scientific research. The suggestions which our experts give
you about diet, physical exercise, as well as how to attempt to deal with some
of Life’s problems will be based on scientific evidence supplemented by their
clinical experience.
Lifestyle intervention includes yoga therapy ,clinical psychology ,clinical nutrition and massage therapy .
Pain is a
protective reaction to a physical injury. Pain is the way our body lets us know
that something is wrong. However the experience of pain is always
uncomfortable, both psychologically and physically. There are several pain
killers but unfortunately most of them have side effects if taken for a long
time. These side effects include irritation of the digestive system and liver
damage. Fortunately there are many traditional healing methods which can help
reduce pain and discomfort. While acupuncture, derived from Chinese medicine,
is believed to act on the subtle life energy (chi or prana), there are other methods as well. A recent and innovative
method is spinal decompression 1, which acts by reducing the
pressure on the backbone. This is of importance as the backbone covers the
spinal cord which receives and conducts sensory impulses including pain. Apart
from this certain yoga practices help in reducing sensitivity to pain so that
ultimately a person may have pain but be able to experience it less strongly.
Finally Ayurveda has several treatments to decrease the discomfort related to
physical pain. However all of these will be given and supervised by the trained
practitioners we have here.
