PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE:

First of all, I would like to thank you for showing the interests in the alternative medical therapies, which is becoming more and more popular through out the world.

The Indian Board of Alternative Medicines has been founded for the purpose of teaching the various alternative medical therapies. The institution imparts the teachings through regular classes and correspondence courses. Students throughout the world are assured to the fact that a thorough instruction and absolute personal attention in every details will be given to the best of our level in all the respects.

Our institution has within its staff a number of senior and well-used advisors from the different countries of the world, Faculty members, Instructors etc. adding to a total of knowledge not to be usually found in any other institution of a similar nature.

Correspondence Courses differ from class-room study in that the teacher is not personally present, but gives personal attention through the mail. The class-room is the place of your choice in most cases, your own home. The time to learn, any time you have free. The great advantages are that you may enroll at any time, complete the course as rapidly as you want to; plan your own schedule to fit in with your home and job situation. Many of the world’s leading men and women have taken diplomas and degrees by home study. A study course from out institution should be thought of as a lifetime investment, since the information’s within these outstanding courses will be with you for life, the fees paid for such information is but a small part of the investment. Please note that our policy is to have continued improvement in the essential materials of any courses offered and to add to the number of courses available in these alternative medical therapies. Hence the material is the very latest and continual progressive research will improve on material as research offers us new areas of interests and results.

We trust as a result of your enquiry, you will decide to enroll with us, and join the ever-growing roll of students. If you have any questions, please feel free to write to us.

Dr. Suresh Kumar Agarwal
