Na Srí Lance je ájurvédská medicína založena na staletých pokladnicích domorodých znalostí, přírodního prostředí a kulturního repertoáru. Podle archeologických důkazů sahá lidská civilizace 30 000 let do minulosti. Jeskynní lidé té doby domestikovali mnoho odrůd divokých rostlin a používali je jako potravinu a léky.
