I am Dr Oscar O’ Duchon, a retired GP Family doctor of 30 years’ experience practice in UK and Ireland. I studied Ayurveda with the Ayurvedic Institute of UK and completed both Diploma in Ayurvedic Lifestyle and Nutrition and Diploma Ayurveda Practitioner. I work as a Ayurvedic Practitioner in Belfast and I am also an NHS accredited Health and Wellness Coach.
I’m passionate about the role Ayurveda can play in improving people’s health through tailored digestive nutritional advice and lifestyle modifications and also teach Ayurveda through educational workshops in local community groups. My desire is to help people learn about a system of medicine which can empower them to take control of their health. The key to better health is self-awareness of our body and mind and the factors that can cause us to become imbalanced and unwell.
This is what Ayurveda teaches us more effectively than any other system of medicine. Ayurveda IS the original Lifestyle Medicine and gives us a greater understanding of how we can achieve our best health to prevent illness and dis-ease.
