The goodness of Ayurveda, the guarantee of health and happiness for a lifetime, from world’s first ISO certified ayurveda pediatric hospital. Chikitsa means treatment and Alayam is temple. Situated at Mezhathur, Trithala in Palakkad district of Kerala was established in memory of Sri Chatharu Nair, the renowned name in Ayurvedic Pediatrics and a legend in his own life time (1874 – 1967), with a common goal in mind “a healthy new generation”. At CNS Ayurveda Chikitsalayam & Research Center we believe the near miraculous powers of Ayurveda. The treatment methods in this hospital have attained international acclaim.

 

The Chief Physician of the hospital is veteran Bala Chikitsa expert, Vaidyan Gangadharan Nair, a disciple and great grand son-in-law of Late Chatharu Nair. There was a common usage and belief among the people, in the case of children’s ailments “Daivam Paathi, Chatharu Nair Paathi” (God and Chatharu Nair will contribute equally to the healing in critical stages). Sri Gangadharan Nair, the driving force behind this hospital, has been serving the sick since 1951. Dr. K.P. Manikandan BAMS, PGCCH, the Chief Executive of the hospital, is the son and descendant of Vaidyan Gangadharan Nair. Sri Gangadharan Nair, during the past five-and-half decades of his service to Ayurveda, has given relief from pain to a number of patients including children.
