All ayurvedic studies conducted
on herbal and holistic medicine in ancient India, followed
from the fountainhead of the two principle ayurvedic schools.
The School of Physicians (Atreya) and the School of
Surgeons (Dhanvantari) epitomized the eight main areas
of ayurvedic studies and specialization during ancient times.
The details of these eight branches of this natural alternative
medicine are present in the three ancient ayurvedic texts
of: Charaka Samhita, Susruta Samhita
and Astanga Hridaya
