Message from the Chairman

A year consists of 3 seasons, summer, rains and winter. Our Ayurved tells us what to eat and what to avoid during these seasons. Even, it specifies the dressing code also. Ayurveda is one of the most ancient systerns of health sciences, originated in India around BC 3000 and is practised throughout India. It is based on sound fundamental principles and follows unique approaches towards life, preservation of health and treatrnent of various diseases. In contrast to the analytical approach of western medicine, Ayurveda adopts a holistic approach to life and health. It defines health as a state of comprehensive equilibriurn of all bodily functions whether it is physical or mental. Ayurveda emphasises on "health" more than "disease", and always M.S. (Shalya) advocates restoring the health of a patient as the means to elirninate the disease. In the treatment of a patient, Ayurvedic physician is more concerned with the elimination of the cause of the disease and a suitable life style and diet for the patient. The use of drugs and medicaments has only a subsidiary place in an Ayurvedic prescription. Ayurveda mostly uses natural herbal products as medicines, which are both bio-friendly and eco-friendly. By way of its holistic approaches and safe unique natural medicaments Ayurveda is very popular now days throughout the world.
