Thousands of years before modern medicine provided scientific evidence for the mind-body connection, the sages of India developed Ayurveda, which continues to be one of the worlds most sophisticated and powerful mind body health systems. Ayurveda, views a person as unique and made up of five primary elements. The elements are ether (space), air. fire, water, and earth. As in nature, we too have these five elements in us. When any of these elements are present in the environment, they will in turn have an influence on us.
All necessary nutrients, minerals, proteins, and oxygen are transported inside our body by blood. If the supply of blood gets restricted due to any reason, the area where the supply is not complete goes into a tantrum; and we need to ensure that the tantrum is removed from one's body for the supply to be corrected.
Acupressure balances the body's motivating energy (Qi). As we mature, the quantity of Qi and blood in the skin and underlying facial muscles slowly begin to decrease, causing a loss of nourishment, support, and moisture. The face has a high number of acupressure points, specific areas of the face thatcan be targeted and treated.
Acupressure is a technique, most beneficial when used in tandem with other modes of therapy. It is not a panacea for all ageing effects, but needs to be supplemented with a proper and nutritional diet, and medication. Research shows that the benefits of this technique cannot be replicated by any other form of massage therapy. Acupressure treatment changes the body composition by increasing muscle mass, decreasing fat mass, and increasing bone density and muscle strength. All this is possible by regulating the blood circulation in the body and also increasing the efficiency of the hormones and functioning of the stomach, liver and spleen
Acupressure is an important tool to stall the extrinsic ageing process. Our lifestyle, food and other habits lead to an acceleration of the ageing process and we start looking older than our age. The face has a high number of acupressure points, specific areas of the face that can be targeted and treated. This will increase the flow of blood and energy through the skin in that area, thereby hydrating, plumping up and boosting the skin supply of nutrients and oxygen, thus decreasing the appearance of wrinkles and blemishes. The overall result gives a more youthful appearance.
The Naturopathy theory believes that our diet and the environment we expose ourselves to, can either speed up or slow down the ageing process. The body is affected by exposure to toxins in our food, air and water and these chemicals can interfere with the proper functioning. Some of symptoms that can arise from these toxins include: fatigue, lack of concentration, acne, bloating, headaches, under eye dark circles, weight gain and joint pain. The purpose of the Anti-Ageing program is not to stop ageing, but to help a person age gracefully and as slowly as possible.

Pranic Healing is one of the foremost systems of energy healing. It requires no drugs, gadgets or even physical contact. because the practitioner is working on the energy body and not directly on the physical body. It is the energy body that absorbs the life energy and distributes it throughout the physical body. If the negative energy is removed and positive energy is passed through the body, diseases can be cured.
Pranic healing works in correlation with the chakras - the seven wheels of energy. Each chakra of the body is connected with a particular endocrinal gland, with a particular sense organ, and with several other organs. Each chakra has its own mantra. By activating the chakras with the vibrations of the mantras, positive energy will flow through the body. Every sense organ, gland and organ will be energized and blockages will be removed, then the body can be cured. This practice is effective in groups or private sessions at Carnoustic Resorts.
Pranic Healing corrects the energy imbalances underlying simple and complex disorders. It works on the ‘aura' (bioplasmic energy) by removing used up' or 'diseased' energy and replacing it with fresh vital energy called 'prana. This cleansing and energising allows the body to move towards physical, emotional and spiritual well being. Cleansing removes the cause of the ailment, while energising accelerates the healing process.
Chakras are the centres of vital energy. They are also junctions of the body, prana and mind. Activation and balancing of the chakras brings perfect health of the body and mind. This is possible through chakra meditation.
For age reversal there are many processes in Yoga, Ayurveda and modern medicine but without having to resort to external aids, spend a few minutes of your time for chakra meditation and get rejuvenated. Full chakra healing meditation for anti-ageing is given at Carnoustie Resorts.
