AYURVEDA

The word Ayurveda derived from AYU and VEDA. AYU means life VEDA means

science or knowledge. Ayurveda means the science of life. Ayurveda believes that

positive health is the basis for attaining four cherished goals of life (chaturvidh

purushartha) viz., Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha.

According to a recent report by CII, The Indian Ayurveda market is poised to register

16% growth (CAGR) till 2025. At present, the size of the domestic market is INR

30,000 Cr ($ 4.4 billion), and Ayurveda’s market penetration is increasing in both rural

and urban areas. The report also conveys that 77 % of Indian households are using

Ayurvedic products as against 69% in 2015. The major chunk of the domestic

revenue(75%) comes from the sale of Ayurveda products whereas

services/consulting contribute only 25 per cent to the total business.

On the other hand, its massive popularity in the West is auguring a bright future of

Ayurveda on the global landscape. The industry whose total worth was $3.4 billion in

2015 is expected to reach $9.7 billion by 2022. Growing awareness among masses

about potential side effects of conventional treatments on various media platforms

has compelled them to switch to natural, safer, and holistic alternative, Ayurveda. The

future of Ayurveda is looking fabulous as more and more players are entering the

market with innovative products, quality packaging, and strategic marketing activities.

YOGA

Yoga can be defined as a means of uniting the individual spirit with the universal spirit

of God. According to Maharishi Patanjali, Yoga is the suppression of modifications of

the mind.

It was Swami Vivekananda who introduced yoga to the Western world. Though

initially yoga was considered mainly as a spiritual practice with rilegio - philosophical

underpinnings, by the 1980’s, it became popular as the system of physical exercise

across the Western world. But only one component of yoga - Hatha Yoga or the

physical practice of the postures (asanas) - was understood.

Ever since the UN recognised the importance of yoga through International Yoga Day

in 2014, thousands of yoga schools and academies have cropped up everywhere.

With over 170 countries supporting this proposal, little wonder that the estimated

value of yoga industry globally is at around US$80 billion.

Health and Wellness as an industry is proving to be one of the major contributors in

boosting the economy. Yoga today, is viewed as an avenue for holistic business.

Positions have opened up for the roles of teachers, instructors, lecturers, professors,

private tutors and freelancers. With change in lifestyles & not limited to classes, yoga

related products have witnessed a big jump in demand. Yoga clothes, props such as

bricks, ropes, wheels, hammocks for aerial yoga, chanting beads, yoga mats, books

and more have also gained popularity.

AYUSH SYSTEMS



NATUROPATHY

Naturopathy is a system of man building in harmony with the constructive principles

of Nature on physical, mental, moral and spiritual planes of living. It has great health

promotive, disease preventive and curative as well as restorative potential.

According to the manifesto of British Naturopathic Association, "Naturopathy is a

system of treatment which recognizes the existence of the vital curative force within

the body." It therefore, advocates aiding human system to remove the cause of

disease i.e. toxins by expelling the unwanted and unused matters from human body

for curing diseases

The common naturopathy modalities include counselling, diet and fasting therapy,

mud theory, hydrotherapy, massage therapy, acupressure, acupuncture, magnet

therapy and yoga therapy. Naturopathy believes that entire universe is composed of

five basic elements Panchamahabhutas viz. Eather (akasha), Air (vayu), Fire (Agni),

water (jala) and Earth (prithvi) and so is the human body

In the Western countries, At present only six fields are educationally accredited, they

are osteopathy, chiropractic, acupressure, massage, naturopathy & homeopathy.

UNANI

Unani is the science of which we learn the various states of body, in health and when

not in health, and the means by which health is likely to be lost and, when lost, is

likely to be restored.

The Unani system of medicine has passed through many countries, getting enriched

along the way, before introduced in India around the 8th Century. Since its

introduction in India, many centuries back, India’s contribution to the further

development of the Unani System of medicine has been globally recognized.

Today the country has adequately growing infrastructure of academic, research &

healthcare institutions of Unani System of Medicine. In the area of public healthcare,

a large network of Unani hospital & dispensaries is functioning across the country,

predominantly through Central & State Government Initiatives.

AYUSH SYSTEMS

SIDDHA

Siddha system is one of the oldest systems of medicine in India . The term Siddha

means achievements and Siddhars were saintly persons who achieved results in

medicine. Eighteen Siddhars were said to have contributed towards the development

of this medical system. Siddha literature is in Tamil and it is practised largely in Tamil

speaking part of India and abroad. The Siddha System is largely therapeutic in

nature. The uniqueness of Siddha System is evident by its continuous service to the

humanity for more than 5000 years in combating diseases and also in maintaining its

physical, mental and moral health while many of its contemporaries had become

extinct long ago.

There has been a resurgence of traditional medical systems the world over, based on

the holistic nature of their approach to healing. The efficacy of indigenous systems

has been proved in various contexts. They tend to use locally available, cost effective

materials for treatment. Hence, the Siddha system which also has strong cultural and

historical bonds with the people

HOMEOPATHY

The word ‘Homoeopathy’ is derived from two Greek words, Homois meaning similar

and pathos meaning suffering. Homoeopathy simply means treating diseases with

remedies, prescribed in minute doses, which are capable of producing symptoms

similar to the disease when taken by healthy people.

During the last 60 years, Homeopathy has been successfully institutionalized in India.

Government encouraged reasonable infrastructure in the form of education

institutors, research facilities, drug development and quality standards and hospital /

dispensaries. Homeopathy is said to be practiced in over 100 countries around the

world and is said to be largest amongst the CAM therapies grouped by World Health

Organization. The system has unique strength in the curative, preventive and

promotive care and is based on strong medical philosophy of vitalism.

Homeopathy gained a massive following in United States and in American continent

during the late 19th century. In 1844, the American Institute of Homeopathy was

formed, becoming the first national medical organization in the United States.

India leads in terms of number of people using homeopathy, with 100 million people

depending solely on homeopathy for their medical care. There are over 200,000

registered homeopathic doctors currently, with approximately 12,000 more being

added every year.

Why Wellness?

Wellness is the key sector which is replacing the medicine sector all over the world. People are

preferring Better Health over Better treatment. However, modern system of medicine is unable to

contribute in better health till date. Whole world is seeking ways to attain a healthy life avoiding the

modern allopathic system of medicine and India is their biggest hope because of Ayurveda, Yoga,

Meditation and Naturopathy.

Uttarakhand’s tourism industry, having a turnover of nearly 13.98 billion INR (200 Million USD

approx.) contributes 1.5% to the India’s economy and there is a huge potential waiting to be utilized

in wellness sector. Rishikesh, a serene place located at the banks of holy River Ganges is already

popular as YOGA capital of the world.

Why Uttarakhand for Wellness Investments?

skilled as well as semi-skilled manpower, Uttarakhand has the key potential to emerge as the

world’s "wellness destination”.

herbs, dense forest, enchanting rivers, snow filled mountains and mesmerizing waterfalls. This

conducive blend of Himalayan atmosphere, natural resources and spiritual vibrations itself promote

health and wellness.

2. People: Uttarakhand is well known for its hardworking, honest people and their hospitality. In

Uttarakhand, we have established Uttarakhand Ayurveda University under which more than 10

network and major towns i.e. Dehradun, Haldwani and Pithoragarh have air and rail connectivity

also. Dehradun and Pantnagar are 2 major airports of Uttarakhand. The road network is being

upgraded through a major road upgradation program under the Char Dham road project which will

highly reduce the transit time to majority of wellness destinations.

4. Policy: In Uttarakhand, Wellness and AYUSH has been allotted the status of Industry, which

allows the AYUSH/Wellness sector to enjoy all the industrial sector benefits and schemes of the

Govt.. In addition Govt is providing land, incentives and subsidies under various state and central

policies to promote investment in Uttarakhand.

5. Process: Uttarakhand Govt has developed an online single window system to facilitate investors.

An investment promotion Facilitation centre helps in all paper work and formalities. All clearances

from various department can be obtained from this single window. No physical access is now

necessary to a particular office for permissions and clearances.
