	Siddha Concept of Medicine and therapy, to some extent is more improved in its Application than Ayurveda, although the origin is synonymous. It includes many new Combinations of Herbal Drugs not available in other systems of Herbal therapy. Basically it aims at not just curing Diseases but provides a longer life of good health. Our Ancient seers (Siddha Purush) have evolved secret Recipes of Elixir to enable us to have longer than 100 years easily. It is a unique and Dynamic Master Medicine which can potentise any conventional Herbal Drug into 50 to 100 fold more efficacious, that cures every type of Disease. Besides, the Approach to concept of our treatment is also radically different. The genuine learned, Siddha Physician never treats a particular Disease only. This is a wrong Approach. He seeks to treat the “Body as a whole”. This way the ailing, sick Body is purged of all Disease - causing elements. As a result the Immunity system is rendered very strong and resistant to any ailment / Disease. In this way ancient Siddha Saints have managed to live for 100-150 years in one body and then entered another body by Occult powers and continued to live on for many centuries – A life Immortal!
