The modular training structure enables a flexible training schedule, tailored to the life situation and time possibilities of the participant. We are happy to advise you!

Module 1 "Nutrition and health trainer"
In Ayurveda, a balanced, constitutionally appropriate diet is an essential component in balancing the physical and mental constitution. You will learn how to use the effects of spices and foods according to type and how to guide your clients according to the principles of Ayurvedic lifestyle. You will also gain valuable inspiration for your own lifestyle, diet and cooking.
The nutrition and health trainer module can also be booked separately:
To the Ayurveda nutrition and health trainer course

Module 2 "Ayurveda massage and wellbeing practice"
In this module, you will develop the ability to perform traditional massage and oil applications with your hands and heart. A variety of demonstrations and practical exercises with corrections will show you how to apply Ayurvedic massage techniques precisely, sensitively and according to type. You will also acquire in-depth knowledge of the philosophy, medicine and constitutional teachings of Ayurveda, which will give you a holistic understanding of the applications.

The massage module can also be booked in a modified form for newcomers with no previous knowledge of Ayurveda. The training then corresponds to the Birstein model. Please note that attending the massage module alone does not entitle you to practise a trade in Austria. In this case, you can only use your Ayurvedic massage skills privately, unless you are authorized to practice massage as a member of a health profession.

Module 3 "Mental coaching, practice and success strategies"
This module supplements the Ayurveda skills you have already acquired with knowledge of Ayurvedic psychology and diagnosis. You will also be given strategies for successful practice management.

People without previous medical knowledge also take part in an external e-learning course. In addition to the 40 hours already integrated in the modules, this course teaches you a further 100 hours of conventional medical basics, together = 140 hours.
The online course is offered in cooperation with our partner EPWA and is booked and paid for directly there.

Examination
The final examination includes a practical case documentation, a written examination and a supervised project presentation.
The following achievements must be demonstrated for admission to the examination:

  • a 50-hour internship at Rosenberg Ayurveda Kurzentrum or another recognized Ayurveda practitioner or hotel
