Overview
MS (Ayurveda) Shalyatantra is a 3-year postgraduate program that specializes in the surgical branch of Ayurveda, focusing on the diagnosis and management of diseases requiring surgical intervention. The course is based on classical Ayurvedic texts like the Sushruta Samhita and integrates them with modern surgical principles to provide a holistic approach to patient care. Students gain in-depth knowledge of surgical techniques, wound management, trauma care, and para-surgical procedures such as Ksharasutra and Agnikarma. Along with strong theoretical foundations, the program emphasizes extensive clinical training through hospital postings, operation theatre exposure, and real patient case handling. This combination of traditional wisdom and contemporary medical practices prepares graduates to become skilled Ayurvedic surgeons capable of managing both routine and complex surgical conditions effectively.
