Concepts
|
Ayurveda insists that the ‘fault’ or dosha, the ’tissue’ or dhatu and the ‘impurity’ or mala should be in harmony with each other, with all the components i.e ‘Five Great Elements’ (Panchmahabhuta) theory. These five elements are earth (prithvi), water (jal), fire (agni or tej), air (vayu) and ether or space (akash), should be properly balanced.
|
The concept of Allopathy is based on that diseases can be treated with the help of drugs.
|
The differences between the way two individuals react to a similar disease are an indication of the unique way in which each of them react. This uniqueness of the symptoms & reactions brings in the difference in the remedy prescribed to each one of them.
|
|
Approach Towords The Disease
|
Ayurveda stresses a balance of three elemental energies or Vāyu / vāta (air & space – “wind”), pitta (fire & water – “bile”) and kapha (water & earth – “phlegm”). According to ayurvedic medical theory, these three substances — doṣas (Devanāgarī: दोष)—are important for health, because when they exist in equal quantities, the body will be healthy, and when they are not in equal amounts, the body will be unhealthy in various ways.
|
Allopathy is an approach which aims to treat the illness only. Allopathic practitioners are limited by what they can do because they only focus on the symptoms not the causes. It seems as though there is a pill for every ill, and even better, a pill for all their side effects. We have somehow been convinced that when sick, it is due to a lack of medicine or surgery and this is the only way.
|
Homeopathy aids the body’s abilities to heal itself by improving the immune system of the body. They have a striking balance of , NATURAL and INDIVIDUALISTIC approaches in their prescribing.

|
Individuality For The Patients
|
Every person is unique and should be treated as a unique individual in life. This makes Ayurveda more practical and result oriented system of medicine. You might have noticed that you are quite different from rest of your surroundings and there are only few who understand and regard your uniqueness and individualization. Ayurveda does so!
|
Almost no individualization, if two person are suffering from flu then they have a common medicine for both of them.
|
Homeopathic medicines are prescribed on the basis of Individualization which tailoring the remedy according to individuals need. It means every individual is different from others in some way; be it his stature, talking, choices, behavior, or his susceptibility to diseases. Homeopathic medicines are always prescribed for the complete package that is the individual so naturally the medicine will change for different persons.
