AYURVEDIC CONSULTATIONS |
Dr. Cravatta has had the experience of taking more than 25,000 pulses. She
has been given the siddhi to be able to practice Messenger Pulse. This allows
her the ability to effectively do phone consultations. She is currently seeing
patients in-person in Berkeley and Grass Valley, CA. Many have experienced the
Messenger Pulse with Dr. Cravatta and have realized the benefits and
effectiveness of this method of doing consultation.
The Initial Exam involves discussing your health history, your current health
concerns, and your emotional well being. You will be asked about your dietary
choices, exercise, and other aspects of your lifestyle.
Dr. Cravatta will then take your pulse to determine your Ayurvedic Body Type
(Prakriti), Doshic imbalances (Vikriti) including Subdoshas and Dhatus
(Tissues). The Pulse Reading may also indicate subtle emotional or mental blocks
that may be hindering your personal growth.
She will then set up a healing routine that will be especially suited to your
special needs. This might include: dietary recommendations, herbal therapy,
lifestyle suggestions, cleansing techniques, or many other helpful tips for you
to incorporate into your day.

The Initial Exam is 1 1/4 hours in length - 75 minutes. The is cost is: $130.
You may choose to have an extended first visit and the additional charge would
be as indicated for the Re-Exam cost.
The Initial Exam involves filling out a standard intake questionnaire or form.
Thus, in an effort to make this process as easy and pleasant as possible, we now
offer you the opportunity to complete and submit your
questionnaire to Dr. Cravatta online from the comfort of your own home. Once the
questionnaire has been submitted, simply call us to schedule your consultation.
RE-EXAM - Online Re-Exam Form
The Re-Exam is usually 55 minutes in length. The cost is $100. You may choose to
vary the time to accommodate your particular needs.
The fee schedule is:
55 minutes - $100
30 minutes - $55

Some will find it helpful to speak with Dr. Cravatta more frequently and for
shorter duration. Others would like to have extended Re-Exams to be able to
discuss all of their concerns at that time. Most Re-Exams will fall within the
55 minutes. The important thing is for you to have the time with Dr. Cravatta
that will allow for your greatest progress.
It is generally recommended to have your first Re-Exam approximately 4 to 5 weeks
after your Initial Exam. Future Re-Exams will be scheduled according to your
health concerns.
We are now also offering you the opportunity to complete and submit your
Re-Exam questionnaire here online. Once the questionnaire has been submitted,
simply call us to schedule your consultation.
