Gandhiji Naturopathy Centre
Gandhiji Naturopathy Centre was founded with a mission to bring natural healing to those suffering from chronic kidney disease and other lifestyle ailments. As a pioneering facility established in 1982, it has developed a unique approach to renal care, offering a combination of modern medical management and natural treatments. This centre specializes in treating renal failure, including both pre-dialysis and post-dialysis care, with a remarkable 60% success rate for patients in the early stages of kidney disease. Through a combination of naturopathy and modern care, patients experience reduced morbidity and slowed deterioration of renal function. Integrating natural remedies with conventional medicine, this centre helps patients regain both physical and physiological health.

Guided by experienced naturopaths, including Dr. Jyothsna, a distinguished graduate in Naturopathy with over 30 years of practice, Gandhiji Naturopathy Centre emphasizes a holistic healing approach. With treatments like hydrotherapy, herbal juice therapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, and yoga therapy, patients receive well-rounded care that addresses both mental and physical health. Dr. Jyothsna and the dedicated team empower patients to embrace healthier lifestyles, encouraging them to eliminate harmful habits and adopt natural living principles to enhance their well-being.

The Gandhiji Naturopathy Renal Foundation, a non-profit wing of the hospital, was established to support patients who require long-term care for chronic kidney and lifestyle diseases. Founded by the renowned natural healer Prof. Ulpalakshan, who overcame his own renal health challenges with naturopathy, this foundation reflects a commitment to drugless, holistic healing. Prof. Ulpalakshan’s vision was to offer the public affordable, effective alternatives to lifelong dependence on conventional medications. The centre has continued his legacy, developing a reputable drugless therapy model that combines India’s ancient curative practices to address various ailments naturally and effectively.

The range of treatments available at Gandhiji Naturopathy Centre spans several therapeutic methods, including hydrotherapy, diet therapy, mud therapy, magneto-therapy, electrotherapy, and yoga therapy. These treatments address common lifestyle diseases such as diabetes (both NIDDM and IDDM), hypertension, coronary artery disease, obesity, fatty liver, infertility, and skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema. Additionally, the centre specializes in managing digestive disorders, asthma, urinary tract infections, and pre- and post-dialysis renal failure care, ensuring comprehensive support for a variety of health concerns.

Located in Thrissur, Kerala, Gandhiji Naturopathy Centre provides services such as outpatient (OPD) consultations, video consultations, inpatient care, and specialized diet and nutrition counseling. Under the motto, “To cure sometimes, to relieve often, to comfort always,” this centre’s dedicated team works to alleviate patient suffering through natural means, with a focus on sustainable, eco-friendly health practices. The centre also addresses common misconceptions about naturopathy, clarifying that it advocates balanced vegetarianism and eco-friendly living for the betterment of individual health and the planet.
