Bare Act
The Kerala Ayurveda Health Centers (Issue of Licence and control) Act, 2007
Health200714 sections
This law regulates private Ayurveda health centers in Kerala by requiring them to obtain a specific license. It applies to any establishment providing Ayurveda treatment that is not owned or managed directly by the government or functioning solely as a medicine-selling dispensary. The Act matters because it establishes strict standards to ensure patient safety and delivery of care; it outlines detailed facility requirements, such as space for treatment and consultation, and mandates that only qualified practitioners operate these centers, ultimately protecting the public by regulating the quality and operation of alternative medicine services.
