Pediatrics, ophthalmology, demonology/psychiatry are its other components. These eight components work in the human body to cure different kinds of physical problems depending on the need of the body not excepting mental, emotional and sexual problems. Ayurveda emphasizes balance - balance of mind and body. The balance can be obtained through routine hygienic lifestyle on food, sleep and work. Ayurvedic holistic healing focuses on three different doshas in the body - vata, pitta and kapha for treatment. Vata imbalance is the cause of gastric, joint problems and other problems predominant in stomach, intestine and other lower body parts. Pitta imbalance causes problems related to head or the upper part of the body. Short temper, headache and other problems related to the upper body parts are the effects of pitta dosha. Kapha imbalance results the problem of middle part of the body. Cough and other related problems are caused by Kapha imbalance.
