A Comparative Analysis of Indian and International Naturopathy center: A Literature review

  • Unique Paper ID: 179142
  • PageNo: 5413-5419
  • Abstract:
  • Naturopathy, a system of holistic health rooted in nature, has emerged globally as a sustainable alternative to modern allopathic practices. This paper aims to study and compare the architectural and functional design aspects of Indian and international naturopathy centers. Through case studies and literature analysis, the research explores spatial planning, environmental responsiveness, therapy-specific zoning, and integration with natural surroundings. While Indian centers tend to favor traditional materials, courtyards, and low-cost natural treatments, international centers lean toward luxury wellness models using modern, sustainable technologies. This study identifies design elements that can be adapted to Indian contexts, including biophilic architecture, renewable energy systems, and personalized therapy layouts. The goal is to inform better design solutions that balance affordability, cultural sensitivity, and global wellness innovations.
