Welcome to Snehalayam Ayurveda

Kerala is considered the ware house of Ayurveda Treatment. Kerala traditional physicians were having a reputation in Kayachikitsa, Bala chikitsa, Netra roga chikitsa, Visha chikitsa etc. But the invasion of modern medicine in the last centuary has shadowed the traditional Ayurvedic treatment and it has limited to a few families of Malabar region. Thr revival of traditional Ayurveda chikitsa in the present era was carried out by certain academic institutions of Kerala. Among these, the Trivandrum school of thought has provided most valuable and effective treatment modalities for managing developmental problems of children under the superior guidance of Dr.Ramachandran. He has dedicated his entire service for the development of Indian version of pediatrics in academic clinical and research fields.

In 2011, Dr.Ramachandran has started an Ayurvedic pediatric hospital in Trivandrum using his vast experience in managing pediatric developmental problems and later in 2019, he added Stree roga chikitsa in Varkala and it is now flourishing as a multi specialty hospital under the banner Snehalayam Ayurveda Specialties using the expertise and experience of senior consultants of Ayurveda sector.You are cordially invited to go through the following pages to know and feel about Snehalayam Ayurveda Specialties.
