What does “Satmya” mean?
Satmya, pronounced “sat-mee-ya” originates in the ancient Sanskrit language and is used in Ayurveda to denote an important principle of health. It basically means “wholesome adaptation through gradual change”. We called our clinic Satmya as it underlies our core philosophy & applies to both Ayurveda & Naturopathy.
At Satmya our main focus is Ayurveda (Indian Traditional medicine) & Naturopathy (Western Traditional Medicine). We offer a wide variety of traditional Ayurvedic treatments as well as remedial massage & sports massage.
The Ayurvedic Practitioner
Douglas Hyde, Adv.Dip.Ayur, B.A.(Biology)
Doug studied classical Ayurveda for four years at Ayurveda college, in New South Wales (NSW), Australia. He was taught by Prof. J. Chandler a highly respected Vaidyacharya (Ayurvedic Doctor & Teacher) who taught him the value in following the sacred teachings of the classical texts. Doug brings this wisdom to his practice.
Doug also holds a Bachelor of Arts (Biology) from the University of Denver (DU). He transferred to DU from the University College Galway in 1997, upon receiving a swimming scholarship. He trained there until his graduation in 1999. He continued swimming at an elite level until 2000 when he retired. As a result of his long swimming career Doug always had a passion for health & fitness & this led him to his current career as an Ayurvedic practitioner.
Doug returned home to Ireland & set up Satmya with his partner Yvette in 2007.
