Baba Ramdev highlights holistic treatments
During the ceremony, Baba Ramdev emphasized the hospital’s focus on treatments that “cleanse the body” using ancient methods.
“Today is the inauguration of the first integrated hospital in India,” he told reporters. “Our Home Minister, who prioritises Sanatan Dharma and encourages the growth of Yoga and Ayurveda, has inaugurated this hospital.”
Ramdev explained that the hospital will offer a wide range of therapies, including Yoga, Ayurveda, naturopathy, panchkarma, shatkarma, and other traditional treatments. He described it as “the world’s first hybrid hospital,” where 90–99% of patients receive these integrative therapies. He highlighted treatments like Akshi Tarpan, Shirodhara, Karna Pooranam, and colon therapy, which aim to reduce stress, inflammation, and other causes of disease.
“We provide over 100 types of basti, or enemas,” Ramdev added. “Anyone familiar with Ayurveda knows their benefits.” He also credited Sunil Ahuja for making the hospital a reality, noting Ahuja’s role in establishing more than 50 critical care hospitals.
Acharya Balakrishna talks integration of modern and traditional medicine
Acharya Balkrishna, CEO of Patanjali Ayurved, shared details about the hospital’s capacity and vision. “More than 1 crore patients worldwide have already been treated in our existing departments. With these new facilities, even patients with chronic illnesses can receive proper care,” he said.
Balkrishna explained that the hospital’s integrative approach addresses 70-80% of illnesses using alternative medicine, while modern systems are available for emergencies and critical conditions.
“We offer patients choice, and that is central to our care,” he emphasised. He further noted that the hospital is likely the largest integrated hybrid facility of its kind, having already treated over 1.38 crore patients globally.
