The National AYUSH Mission (NAM) in Kerala promotes five traditional systems of medicine:

• Ayurveda – An ancient Indian system that aims to maintain balance between the mind, body, and spirit. It uses diet, herbal remedies, lifestyle changes, and therapies like massage.
• Yoga & Naturopathy – Focuses on physical and mental wellness through yoga practices and natural healing methods like proper diet, exercise, and healthy living.
• Unani – Based on ancient Greek principles, this system balances body humors using herbs, diet, and therapies such as massage and cupping.
• Siddha – Originating in South India, Siddha uses herbs, minerals, and lifestyle practices to restore balance in the body’s elements.
• Homoeopathy – Based on the idea of "like cures like," it uses diluted substances to trigger the body’s natural healing. Treatment is tailored to individual symptoms.
