Holistic Medicine and Traditional Medicine

The science of Siddha is a traditional healing system based on Tamil culture. The Siddhars were spiritual advocates with ashta siddhis, or over eight powers. Siddha's medical program emphasizes that guided therapies are not disease-related, but must also take into account the patient, the environment, the age, the habits, the physical condition. Unani medicine is information and actions related to promoting good health and prevention of disease. The Unani program emphasizes the use of naturally occurring natural resources, herbs, animals and marine ecosystems.
