The Journey of Arya Vaidhya Sala

History

My traditional family didn’t possess an Ayurvedic institution. But my father was thickly associated with the activities of the Esteemed Ayurvedic Institution of THE ARYA VAIDYA SALA, KOTTAKKAL, since 1932 to 1988.

Your inspiration to choose Ayurveda

I developed passionate respect towards Ayurvedic physicians, by continuously witnessing the practice of my father and maternal uncle. And also my father advised me. So I became an Ayurvedic Physician.
