Ayurveda: The doctrine of Ayurveda aims to keep structural and functional entities in a functional state of equilibrium, which signifies good health. Any imbalance due to internal and external factor causes disease and restoring equilibrium through various techniques, procedures, regimes, diet and medicine constitute treatment. The philosophy of Ayurveda is based on the theory of Pancha bhootas (five element theory) of which all the objects and living bodies are composed of.
Siddha: Siddha system of medicine emphasize that medical treatment is oriented not merely to disease, but also has to take into account the patient, environment, age, habits, physical condition. Siddha literature is in Tamil and it is largely practiced in Tamil speaking parts of India and abroad.

Both Siddha and Ayurveda recognize that disease is caused by the imbalance of the three humors. But Siddha sees the predominance of humors as vatham, pitham and kapam in childhood, adulthood and old age respectively while Ayurveda views the dominance of kapam in childhood, vatham in old age and pitham in adulthood
