“Caring for you and the world”

Today, diseases have stopped showing affinity towards elderly alone, it is wreaking the young equally - all thanks to the unhealthy lifestyle and eating habits of the new generation. Today’s generation are facing more problems owing to Lifestyle Disorders. These disorders are attributable to day-to-day habits (routine) of the individual. Habits that minimize physical activities and lead to a sedentary lifestyle.

The modern-day lifestyle disorders such as sleeplessness, stress related issues, migraine, unhealthy skin, and hair are becoming common in the society. People prefer alternative treatments for ailments to avoid side effects of allopathy medicines. Ayurveda, Naturopathy, Siddha and Bach therapy are commonly available alternative treatments for the above-mentioned lifestyle issues. Application of medicated oils, herbal pastes and powders is a challenging task as they soil the garments and is very inconvenient to carry out regular work. Therefore, would like to provide wearable textiles as solutions in this project proposal to find a permanent solution to these medicinal applications.
