There is a wealth of knowledge present in the handouts provided by Ginger Garner regarding different therapeutic modalities, and lifestyle modifications based on a variety of ailments that our patients may be dealing with. I would like to organize patient handout that we can provide our patients detailing a variety of recommendations that may be approriate based on their main dosha. This would include recommendations for breath work, diet changes, use of essential oils, common marma points, that can be explained in the handout and circled by the clinician, to simplify this portion of education for patient care. It will also allow patients/clients to have an organized reference for their future self care and health management.
I enjoyed the project and putting it together. I struggle with knowing the good balance between bringing in ayurvedic knowledge to a science based healthcare model, but think that this is a good middle ground for that.
