The Indian Research Institute for Integrated Medicine (IRIIM) is a beacon of holistic health and well-being, established in 1981 by a collective of socially conscious medics, researchers, and health workers. Situated in the serene environment of Howrah, with an additional center in Kolkata, IRIIM offers a unique blend of acupuncture, moxibustion, yoga, naturopathy, ayurveda, and integrated medicine. This non-profit voluntary organization is dedicated to providing cost-effective, safe, and easily accessible healthcare services, combining ancient wisdom with modern science.

IRIIM stands out for its multi-dimensional approach to health care, addressing social, philosophical, cultural, and economic aspects. By integrating various pro-nature therapies, the institute ensures a comprehensive treatment protocol that is both drugless and supportive of conventional medicine. The facility not only treats ailments but also emphasizes disease prevention and health awareness, thereby fostering a holistic sense of well-being.

In addition to medical services, IRIIM is a hub for research and development, fostering innovations in integrated medicine. It is recognized by the Government of India and the Government of West Bengal for its pioneering work. The institute also offers extensive training programs, including certification courses in acupuncture and other naturopathic disciplines, ensuring the next generation of practitioners is well-equipped to continue its mission.

The vibrant community at IRIIM extends beyond healthcare, encompassing de-addiction programs, organic farming initiatives, and yoga retreats. Regular health awareness camps and networking events further strengthen the institute’s ties with the wider community, both locally and internationally. At IRIIM, the journey towards holistic health is both a personal and communal endeavor, nurtured in an environment that celebrates life in harmony with nature.
