How Ayurveda Compares to Chinese Medicine

Our Conclusion

Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have many similarities, they follow the laws of nature and avoid extremes. Both Ayurveda and TCM have similar ideas when it comes to nutrition including;

Eating local and seasonal foods.
Eating warm instead of cold meals.
Cooking with a combination of all flavours

Choosing TCM or Ayurveda is down to each individual, however in our opinion TCM doesn’t provide the same comprehensive support for diet, lifestyle, and home practices that Ayurveda does. After completing an Ayurvedic treatment, you gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of your symptoms and practical guidance for long-term changes to your eating habits, daily routine, and overall lifestyle.

Ayurveda’s approach is uniquely holistic. As a practitioner and Yoga Therapist (with yoga being Ayurveda’s sister science), I appreciate how Ayurveda promotes simple, sustainable changes that serve as preventative medicine. Focussing on affordable and effective tools like food, recipes, remedies, yoga, and meditation, Ayurveda helps you achieve healthy digestion, a clear mind, better sleep, and more energy. This comprehensive approach allows you to enjoy the things you love and live your best life.

Kind Words

It would be impossible to sum up working with Jo in one sentence . . . it was without doubt life-changing for me. Would I recommend others working with Jo - 100% yes ! Jo is such a positive person and you cannot help but have that rub off on you. I have taken many bits of advice that Jo has given me and used it to bring calmness and positivity in my everyday life. It's also a joy knowing my daughters get so much out of their yoga practice and I will always encourage this positivity in their lives. I am definitely a much happier contented calmer person who is able to deal with my sometimes very difficult and overwhelming life much better since walking through "The Barns" doors. As I've said to others many times before when I leave the Barn I smile not just on the outside but I'm smiling on the inside too.

I feel amazing. My skin, nails and hair feel amazing, I have lost weight (without feeling like I was trying to) . . . but most of all I have a calmness and contentness that I don’t think I have ever felt in my life. I am more confident, focussed and in the present. I have more energy and am more patient and non judging of people due to this new harmony I have. I have tried lots of different ways to be healthier including eating less carbs, sugar, no meat, no dairy but this is the only thing that has felt right. I can’t thank Jo enough for sharing all her knowledge and experience and being so welcoming, helping and authentic. Jo used to say that Ayurveda can make your body and mind be as it should be and I now know that she is right.
