Introduction to Ayurveda
Learn about the Maharishi Ayur-Veda program, the powerful foundation
for all of the treatment programs at The Raj. Find out about the
comprehensive revival of India's 6000 year old system o f natural medicine. What is
Ayurveda? Ayurveda is the world's most ancient system of preventive
health care. Developed in India over 6,000 years ago. Ayurveda (which
translates as "knowledge of life") is a natural approach to creating balance
and strengthening the body's healing abilities. How does Ayurveda work?
Ayurveda enlivens the inner intelligence of the body and strengthens its
natural healing ability. According to Ayurveda disease is primarily the
result of imbalances and impurities that accumulate in the body over time.
The specialty of Ayurveda is in diagnosing imbalances at an early stage,
before symptoms of disease arise, eliminating those imbalances from the
body, and teaching each person how to live a healthy, balanced life.

ROYAL BEAUTY TREATMENT
PROGRAM
Under the guidance of Ayurvedic skin care experts,
The Raj offers treatments which can be traced back to the palaces of ancient
India. This program creates balance from deep within the tissues, gently
removing impurities while nourishing the skin with herbs, milk, and flower
essences. Special muds imported from the remote hillsides of India help
remove toxins without damaging delicate skin tissues.
Beauty is more than skin deep. Many problems with skin and hair today are due to stress,
environmental toxins, and accelerated aging caused by accumulated
imbalances. The modern medical approach focuses on temporarily relieving
symptoms, but not correcting underlying imbalances. The Royal Beauty
Treatment Program at The Raj transforms the internal functioning of the
physiology to create radiant health, thereby addressing both inner and outer
beauty.
The Raj Royal Beauty Treatment program very gently
reestablishes balance between all three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) to
create a lustrous complexion. When impurities in the skin are eliminated too
quickly, the structure of the skin can be weakened. The Royal Beauty
treatments simultaneously replace the impurities with nutritious molecules
of floral water, milk and herbs.
Three specially trained technicians work with each guest,
applying only the freshest and purest ingredients to give a truly royal and
uniquely effective skin program. Pre-treatment procedures are not required
with this program.

TESTIMONIALS
My husband and I make the journey
from Florida to The Raj in Iowa at least twice a year. For me, arriving at
The Raj is like envisioning a mirage -- only it is for real! With all of its
simple elegance and beauty, it is truly unsurpassed. From the moment I
arrive, every possible consideration is geared toward restoring health and
wholeness and supporting wellness and rejuvenation. Under the direction of
state-of-the-art medical director Dr. Nancy Londforf, technicians
exquisitely trained in the tradition of Maharishi Ayurveda appear to
magically enable me to alleviate stress at many different levels. An
awesome group of chefs, under the direction of head chef Virat Vig, from
India, create a delectable array of sumptuous vegetarian specialties.
Everything at The Raj is designed with the ultimate objective of increasing
inner harmony and balance in one's life -- to create bliss and well-being.
And an attentive staff to accommodate and pave the way from arrival to
departure makes it a truly incredible journey! -- Virginia W., May
2003
