The Clinic

 

COMPLEMENTARY MEDICAL SUPPLY IN RURAL INDIA

Eastern and Western healing philosophies are considered equal in Asha Vihar and are used as such. They do not compete with, but complement each other. In the meantime, a spectrum has shown which medicine is more effective in which disease and thus has priority.

 

OUR WORK IN THE CLINIC

Ghandihall_700x400

Both outpatients and inpatients are assigned priority according to these criteria to the appropriate departments, e.g. the skin diseases to homeopathy, the functional disorders to TCM, the infectious diseases and deformities to conventional medicine.

We employ 11 acupuncturists, 1 homeopath, 1 ayurveda, 1 allopath and 3 physiotherapists. They treat 100 to 150 patients on an outpatient basis, 40 to 50 inpatients and 70 to 80 patients in the satellite stations.

In addition to the technical aspects (effectiveness), the entire medicine also depends on other, non-medical aspects, such as acceptance and trust, mentality, and religiosity on the part of the population, as well as costs, proportionality, availability of diagnostics and therapy.

The Campus

The clinic is located on a 3-hectare site with many green areas, several dining areas, living areas, sanitary facilities, and washing and shower rooms for the patients. In addition, there is a playground with a double function. It is used not only by the children of the patients, but also by the patients themselves: in between their treatments, they use the equipment as a physiotherapy practice to train coordination, balance, strength and flexibility.

Asha Vihar has 80 beds for inpatient treatment. According to official data, Asha Vihar is the largest acupuncture clinic in India.
