Still Point Ayurveda is a private Ayurvedic practice based in Philadelphia offering individualized care rooted in classical Ayurvedic principles.
The practice began in 1999 and has operated full-time since 2009, providing traditional Ayurvedic care, including individualized constitutional assessment, Shamana Chikitsa (palliative balancing therapies), and Panchakarma-based treatments when appropriate.
Care is focused on supporting balance through diet, lifestyle, herbal guidance, and therapeutic Ayurvedic treatments tailored to each individual.
Practitioner
I am a licensed massage therapist in Pennsylvania and a practitioner trained in traditional Ayurveda.
My work integrates classical Ayurvedic principles with hands-on therapeutic care and individualized health guidance.
Approach to Care
Each person is assessed individually before recommendations are made.
The work is grounded in classical Ayurveda and emphasizes:
Constitutional assessment (prakriti/vikriti)
Shamana (balancing) approaches
Panchakarma-based therapeutic care when appropriate
Diet and lifestyle guidance
Herbal formulations tailored to individual presentation
The intention is to support long-term balance and functional well-being through individualized care.
How Care Begins
All clients begin with a comprehensive initial consultation.
This session includes a full assessment and forms the foundation for any ongoing care recommendations.
Practice Philosophy
Still Point Ayurveda follows a traditional Ayurvedic model of care focused on individualized treatment rather than standardized protocols.
Each care plan is developed based on the unique presentation of the individual and adjusted over time as needed.
Location & Setting
Still Point Ayurveda operates as a private, appointment-based practice in Philadelphia in a quiet, focused setting designed for individualized care.
