Why Ayurveda

Why Prasida

Āyurvēda is a clinically time-tested and comprehensive system of healthcare. A 'Life Science' born of the Vedas and the precursor to most systems of medicine and surgery in the world. It finds a relevance, has a scientific basis, has been aggressively researched upon and can contribute significantly to the varied medical and healthy lifestyle needs of the modern day. Latest advancements in modern diagnostic methods can seamlessly be interpreted and integrated into the clinical practice of Ayurveda. Its scientific temper and glorious history spanning few thousand years, position it as a link between the ancient, modern and future of medicine.

The Vedas proclaim जीवेम शरदः शतम् - 'Jeevēma Sharadah Shatam' meaning - 'Life' is meant to be lived for a Hundred Healthy Years!
The tenets of this science become the user manual to achieve this preset goal. Ayurveda being an independent system has specialised solutions to treat various categories of diseases that afflict the mind and body. Lifestyle diseases, chronic conditions like degenerative, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases and syndromes seemingly respond well to Ayurvedic protocols.

Though Ayurveda stands tall and scores many firsts throughout the history of medicine, it never fails to emphasise with clarity, the possibilities and limitations of managing any medical condition.
The human system is attuned to nature and quite obviously responds to natural remedies and methods discovered, understood, mastered, documented and professed by the Rishis of yore, the Vedic Scientists.
Thus here is a medical science that offers you a safer, clinically time-tested, cost-effective, scientific, natural yet modern system of Healthcare.

Prasīda is a unique clinical facility that represents the concepts and authenticity of Ayurvedic practice as in the South of India. We are a physician owned and physician headed institution, dedicated to bringing Clinical Ayurveda closer to people who have conditions that require medical attention.

The concept of Day Care clinic has been planned keeping in mind the accessibility, travel time, cost effectiveness and benefit from a facility that makes Ayurveda a practical, simple and safer alternative to conventional care.

Clinical practice by reputed āyurvedāchāryas at Prasida is backed by twenty years of presence in Kolkata. It has given the team sufficient impetus to develop and refine protocols that are both, geographically and demographically relevant.

A detailed health evaluation is followed by clear prescriptions for Internal medications, external therapies, Shōdhana Panchakarma, diet and lifestyle, with guidance on Yoga and Meditation techniques form the basis of practice at Prasida. Formulations from Arya Vaidya Sala, Kottakkal, Kerala and other renowned Ayurveda pharmaceuticals add to the efficacy of prescriptions from Prasida.

Globally, newer Prasida Clinics with integrated Yoga and diagnostic facilities are planned and shall be established in near future.
