Men’s health
Before you reached 30 your body was generating news cells and developing all the time. From 30-40 this process slowed down and your body maintained its level of health. From 40 onwards your body has started to deplete.
Sex hormones play a major role in preserving a man’s youthful feel and good mental and physical health.
Common health problems experienced by men visiting our centre include:
- Sleep disturbances
- Urination problems
- Low libido
- Enlargement of prostate gland and prostatitis

Sports injury
Where bone injury, sports injury etc has occurred, Ayurvedic preparations are very beneficial, working as a supplement to strengthen and heal the system internally. For accident and trauma injuries it is best to receive immediate attention from your Medical Doctor or Hospital. In many cases, Ayurveda can assist in the recovery and healing process and is complementary to any ongoing treatment given by your Medical Doctor.
