What Amala Ayurvedic does

Amala Ayurvedic Hospital and Research Centre is a private Ayurvedic healthcare institution established in 1983 by Carmelite priest Padma Bhushan Fr. Gabriel Chiramel, located in Thrissur, Kerala, India on the campus of Amala Institute of Medical Sciences. The hospital delivers traditional Ayurvedic care to domestic and international patients through Panchakarma therapies, specialty programs covering pain management, stroke rehabilitation, cancer supportive care, lifestyle disorders, women's health, geriatric care, and ENT/eye care, alongside curated multi-day health packages. The facility maintains a GMP-certified Medicine Production Unit (established 1978) producing Kashayams, Aristas, Asavas, Choornas, Lehyams, and Gulikas, supported by an on-site herbal garden with over 300 medicinal plant species used directly in treatments.

The service portfolio spans core Panchakarma procedures (Virechana, Vamana, Vasthi, Nasya, Raktamoksha) and adjunct therapies including Vishesha Abhyangam, Pizhichil, Njavarakizhi, Elakizhi, Shirodhara, and Choorna Pinda Swedam. Beyond treatment, the hospital runs government-certified paramedical courses in Ayurveda Nursing (30 seats), Ayurveda Pharmacy (25 seats), Ayurveda Therapy (30 seats), and a BSS Diploma in Ayurveda Nursing and Panchakarma (30 seats). NABH accreditation (4th re-accreditation completed), ISO certification, and Ayur Diamond Certification from the Kerala Department of Tourism underpin formal quality and tourism positioning.

Revenue is generated through direct healthcare services delivered at the single Thrissur facility, in-house pharmacy sales, insurance reimbursement enabled under IRDAI guidelines following NABH accreditation, and course fees ranging from Rs. 3,500 (government quota) to Rs. 22,000 (BSS Diploma) annually. Distribution is direct-to-consumer, with marketing reliant on content marketing, international patient testimonials primarily from Sweden, Canada, Austria, and Germany, and medical tourism channels. The hospital operates as part of a diversified religious and charitable group with no external equity funding or public listing.
