Medicine for the World
- Letter to the parliamentary groups of the Bundestag, 04 August 2020
“Because we want to live” – you can read the contents of the letter here.
Ayurveda and Pachakarma give us the gentle, proven help of a tradition that is over a thousand years old. It helps with many health problems, even when traditional medicine is at a loss. (Medicine for the World)
Ideally, a partnership at eye level would be ideal, in order to provide the greatest benefit for us patients through a balanced supplement between traditional medicine and Ayurveda.

Have we overcome the corona crisis?
Is the second wave coming, and if so, is it likely to be worse than before?What can we do?
We must actively support modern medicine, which has its hands full with the acute management of a pandemic. We must not rely on the availability of a tolerable drug or a reliable vaccine in the near future. Of course, we must also keep an eye on the economic challenges.For this reason, we as a society are currently focusing on prevention. Prevention is better than cure! Caution, prudence, foresight and of course a strong immune system – according to the current state of science – is the best protection against the corona virus.This is where therapeutic Panchakarma can make its contribution. It can fall back on a proven arsenal of possibilities, both in health care and in healing.It is imperative that we find the best Ayurvedic doctors who can provide the highest possible treatment success. guarantee.However, in order to exploit its full potential, therapeutic panchakarma need a state recognition by the authority in Germany. The medical opportunities arising from this largely outweigh the financial risks. It should not fail now because of money. Only when this therapy is recognized in Germany can capacities be developed to help us in the fight against old and new infectious diseases. From that point on, it would no longer be a financial question of whether anyone would benefit from effective therapies. As a complementary instrument of prevention and treatment, therapeutic Panchakarma can also help to cushion the economic risks. Fewer sick people are always worth the effort, both from a medical-ethical and economic point of view. Let us put the effectiveness of Panchakarma to the test. We therefore demand the state recognition of Ayurveda and Panchakarma and support the Ayurveda/Panchakarma associations in their concern for medical recognition.
The state recognition of Ayurveda/Panchakarma is coming closer.

- The Skilled Workers Immigration Act, which will come into force on 1.3.2020, paves the way for Ayurveda to be recognised as equivalent to traditional medicine. According to this law, Ayurveda specialists from India and Sri Lanka will be able to settle in Germany, e.g. to practice or to work in a health centre. This means that Ayurveda/Panchakarma therapies can be carried out authentically in Germany. Thus the important distinction of therapeutic Ayurveda from leisure and wellness treatments is possible and raises this therapy to the level of a medical application.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
- From 1 March 2020, the Skilled Workers Immigration Act will come into force. This means that an important hurdle for the recognition of Ayurveda/Panchakarma has been taken. The medical qualification of Ayurveda doctors is secured. The prerequisite to become an Ayurveda Dr. is a 7-year study.
