As per ayurveda, the body is governed by three doshas named as Pitta, Vata and Kapha and our heart health is also managed by three sub-doshas commonly known as Vyana Vata or blood flow and beat, Sadhaka Pitta or emotional balance, Avalambaka Kapha or Sense of security and Vyana Vata or blood flow and beat.

Furthermore, it is easy to understand that a valid treatment for any disease is only feasible if we implement a holistic approach as the one adopted in ayurveda.
