If Aurveda is a national treasure then so is Sidha. This is the only form of medicine that uses purified mettalurgy to treat diseases. The emphasis is on treating the soul using yoga and body using metals. Sidha medicine has been developed and practised by the Sidhars over thousands of years ago. Siddha Medicine is the mother of all Medical Sciences. You will find the essence of Ayurveda (plant extracts), Unani, Acupressure (sensitive points), Reiki (energy field) etc., in the theories of Siddha Medicine. Siddha Medicine utilizes plant extracts and metal oxides during the preparation of medicines.
