Founding Resolutions
AHMA is designed to facilitate the creation of a regulatory framework for the safe and legal use of Ayurveda. To achieve this goal, AHMA will give special emphasis to scientific research and to providing higher education and training for medical professionals, in Ayurvedic theory and clinical practice in our hospitals.
It is our firm belief that through these activities, Ayurveda will gain the position it deserves within the Indian health care systems. AHMA invites all doctors, Vaidyas, and scientists -regardless of their education and school of thought within the field of Ayurveda - to participate in this great endeavour.
