Ancient
wisdom passed down through generations has given us timeless practical
philosophies for maintaining a healthy and peaceful life. At present,
India has many health care systems which have a holistic approach
towards treating health ailments. They provide welcome relief to
people tired of medicines which provide symptomatic remedies rather
than a permanent cure.
To counteract the stresses of modern life and to achieve health
and fulfillment without frequent recourse to strong medications,
more and more people are turning to mother nature. "A healthy
body in a healthy mind" is the doctrine followed by nature
cure in Rajasthan. The Natural Law of healing prescribes solutions
which are derived completely from nature and are free from any harmful
side-effects.
There are four prevailing systems of health-care in India, besides
Allopathy or the modern western system; Homepathy, Ayurveda, Unani,
and Nature Cure. The first three are concerned primarily with curing
illness rather than with preventing it, but the nature cure system
does not requires drugs, it relies on an intelligent use of the
means provided by nature itself.
Ayurveda is a medical-metaphysical healing science. It helps a healthy
person to maintain health and a diseased person to regain health.
Siddha medicine which is made from herbs, minerals and animal projects
is based on the belief that all diseases are caused by an imbalance
in "humuors" (fluids) in the human body. Siddha has also
developed a discpline called Kaya Kalpa for longevity and freedom
from illness.
Homeopathy
prescribes simple, balanced and easily adnistered medicines which
are derived from nature. The unani system is practiced by hakims
and vaids in rural as well as urban parts of the country. The Yoga
philosophy is another dimension of nature cure. Yoga has powers
to claim the mind, relieve stress and tension and stimulate blood
circulation and overall health. The Yoga postures and their variants
work on all the body systems. They are also helpful in toning the
muscles and strenghthening the internal organs. There are special
postures recommended to offer relief from problems such as headaches
and hypertension.
