Alternative medicine is gaining importance among the people of US, Europe and other foreign countries. But in India its lacking behind, people are not much aware about the importance of alternative medicines. People are behind the allopathy treatment for each and every disease without knowing the side effects of those medicines.

So how can we create awareness among the people towards alternative medicines? Please share your ideas guys...

Govt. Awareness Programmes

idea posted by Sandhya Rani Product Development Manager, Novartis

In my opinion, Govt. should take initiatives to educate and create awareness among the people the importance of alternative medicines. They should conduct seminars and programmes to make public aware. Conducting seminars in educational institutions will be a good idea to create awareness among the young generation.

reforms and camps

idea posted by Manshi Mankiwala MSc Public Health student, Anglia Ruskin University student

In my opinion goverment does have programmes to support the alternative medicine system and also budget. So along with some association of alternative medicine practitioners and pharmaceutical companies there should be initiative for medical camps and reforms. By doing this we can gain large data of effeciveness of these complimentry medicine and people will think of other mode of treatment besides allopathy.

Make the treatment affordable

idea posted by Bindu Narayan Product Development Manager, Care Biomedicals

I believe that the most easy way to make it reach the public will be by making the treatment affordable to the common man. Now the alternative therapies are expensive than the conventional treatment which keeps it away from the people. If the government can make the ayruvedic treatments an affordable one, then we will see a lot of people going in that way.

The focus into the concept of Health Vacations is the answer based on the Changing Trends in Health Tourism

idea posted by Jatinder Kapur Associate Professor, Federation of Hotels and Restaurants Associations of India Institute of Hospitality Management
The ancient Indian techniques of Ayurveda, Aromatherapy, Massage, Yoga, Herbal Medicine and Meditation are a perfect dose for those interested in alternative methods of achieving life-long health and feed their inner self. These techniques are also the most important preventive measures with which to combat the malaises of everyday life. . Indian Ayurveda pre-dates most other systems of wellness. The concept of a health vacation tour is very simple and affordable. You simply take a wonderful and romantic vacation to the foreign destination of your choice. While you are there you take a little time out to explore the health care options and obtain the health restoration, replacement, transplant or treatment of your choice. Since health care costs in these countries are dramatically more affordable than in the United States and other western countries, one will save substantially while receiving some of the most qualified and professional (arguably superior) care and treatment procedures available anywhere in the world. When you return home you will be feeling fantastic since you have just enjoyed a great experience and obtained the professional solution you wanted for your health concerns.

Money is behind it all

idea posted by Anita Kenniston Direct Marketing Manager, Ultra International

I order to increase awareness in holistic medicine  and turn the peoples mind to preventive medicine  In the United States it would first have to be made illegal to have lobbies to pay off our government officials for their votes. then make it a law that any doctor that takes a kickback for pushing or promoting products from any pharmaceutical company will louse his licence to practice medicine anywhere in this country. Then we would have to start educating everyone including the medical community about the benefits of natural Herbs,Oils,Tinctures,Teas to prevent and treat Illnesses .

This would probably take at least one if not two generations because drug company's have had centuries of bribing Doctors and government officials,and insurance company's into making us think the only way to being healthy is taking their drugs or having whatever is wrong with us  Cut out.

The best way for us to help speed up the education of the world and especially the U.S.A. is by putting  good reliable totally true and honest Information in printed and on line forms and by educating doctors at the college and medical school Laval's until all of these steps are taken I don't think we will see any improvement in use of natural medicine.
