Home Department Yoga & Naturopathy Centre
KG Hospital's Yoga and Naturopathy Centre harmonises traditional Indian wellness sciences — yoga therapy, hydrotherapy, mud therapy, and diet counselling — with contemporary medicine for a truly integrative, whole-person approach to health.
Naturopathy and Yoga are among India's most ancient healing traditions. At KG Hospital, we honour this heritage while rigorously applying it within an evidence-informed, patient-centred framework. Our naturopathic physicians are BNYS (Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences) qualified — and they work hand-in-hand with our medical specialists.
Our philosophy is Vis Medicatrix Naturae — the healing power of nature. We harness water, earth, air, sunlight, diet, and movement to activate the body's innate capacity to heal and restore balance.
Naturopathy at KG Hospital complements — never replaces evidence-based medical treatment. All therapy plans are reviewed and cleared by the treating physician to ensure safety and efficacy. Never stop prescribed medications without your doctor's advice.

Diet is the cornerstone of naturopathic healing. Our BNYS physicians and clinical nutritionists develop personalised therapeutic diet plans using whole foods, juices, raw foods, and elimination diets to support healing, detoxification, and disease management.
Naturopathy and yoga at KG Hospital are not standalone — they are formally coordinated with medical departments for maximum benefit and safety.
