The four principal therapies used in traditional healing are Wai Khruu (paying respect and affirmations for mental, emotional, and spiritual health), Herbs and Natural Substances, Sacred Nutrition or Eating for long life/ Diet and healthy eating and Laying On of Hands (Chirothesia/ Marma Chikitsa/ Yoga Therapy).
SomaVeda® Certified and Authorized Practitioners and Therapists (Medicine Persons) determine the best treatment strategy after intake based on traditional Vedic and Western biologic assessments.

Every session and component of the SomaVeda® Therapeutic Day program is unique and different. Think of the program as not just a treatment but a journey of discovery into the possibilities of healing based on this traditional therapeutic model.
Content therapies are based on Ayurveda, Christ-Centered Yoga & Yoga Therapy, SomaVeda® Thai Yoga, Medicine of Hope™, Indigenous (clerical/ pastoral/ ministerial) Healthcare, Healing Science and Medicine (I.H.S.M.).
