Alternative Medicine Education in India
India is home to different alternative and complementary treatment streams. The main among them are Ayurveda, Homeopathy and Siddha, followed by Unani, Naturopathy, Yoga, etc. Before the advent of Allopathy into the land by British rulers, Ayurveda and Siddha were the only treatment options available. The suppression of natural cure methods for the sake of Allopathy has dwindled the importance of Ayurveda, Yoga and Siddha over time.
Now there is newfound revival for Ayurveda and other alternative medicines. The single most important reason why people turning away from Allopathy and towards Ayurveda is the fact that side effects so common with Allopathy and an almost total absense of side effects with Ayurveda medicines.
Now Government has recognized courses for all types of alternative
medicines. Ayurveda medical colleges under direct government
control are the main centers of ayurveda education in India.
Ayurveda medical colleges and research centers in private sector
are relatively new to Indian medical scenario.
