German Medical Society for Ayurveda Medicine (DÄGAM)
The members of the German Medical Society for Ayurveda Medicine e.V. feel committed to the well-being of their patients. Ayurveda offers many effective options for therapy and prevention for both healthy and sick people. Appreciation and respect for the thousands of years old tradition of Ayurveda as well as the integration of Ayurveda into a modern health system are the concerns of the DÄGAM. DÄGAM therefore promotes the creation and observance of quality standards with regard to medical training, the practice of Ayurveda and the products used.
The association is ideologically neutral and serves charitable purposes exclusively and unmediated.

German Society for Ayurveda (DGA)
The German Society for Ayurveda e.V. was founded in 1983 as the first medical association for ayurvedic medicine outside India. Its aims are to promote Ayurveda in our health system, to support research projects and to make ayurvedic forms of therapy feasible.
The German Ayurveda Academy conveys the comprehensive knowledge of Maharishi Ayurveda through a variety of courses for doctors and also for interested laymen.
With 37 years of experience and a high standard of quality in its training and further education, the non-profit DGA has gained a prestigious reputation throughout Europe. The DGA is continuously working to improve the knowledge of ayurvedic medicine and to make it more widely known. This has contributed greatly to the establishment of Ayurveda in the western health system.
