Description
Up until sometime in the early '90s, not many people in the west had heard of Ayurvedic medicine. Since then, public figures and physicians like Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Vasant Lad and Dr. Robert Svoboda have brought this science to light in the west. This is not a young science though. Depending upon the source of information, this medicine is between two and five thousand years old and has a practical and lively history and current practice in India, its country of origin.
Many westerners have heard of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), with its herbal medicines and acupuncture. Ayurveda is to India as TCM is to China. Both countries, even today, use their traditional medicines hand in hand with western (allopathic) medicine in hospitals, clinics, private practices, cities and villages.
As a medical science in India, Ayurveda includes a comprehensive study of anatomy, physiology, pathology, diagnostic systems and treatment strategies. An Ayurvedic physician in India must undergo a 5 ½ year post-graduate degree program (Bachelor's of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) to become qualified. Ayurveda is recognized by the World Health Organization as an effective, traditional health science.
