Nari Shakti Awardee Dr. Alpana Bohra Champions Health Awareness at Arya Samaj

Under the joint aegis of the Consumer Protection Organisation and Arya Samaj, a one-day Acupressure Awareness Camp was successfully conducted on 23 November 2025, from 8:30 AM to 1:00 PM, spreading crucial awareness about drug-free healing and preventive healthcare.

On this occasion, Smt. Chandrakala Arya welcomed Dr. Alpana Bohra—recipient of the Nari Shakti Samman, Chairperson (Women’s Wing, Consumer Protection Organisation, Udaipur District) and former Senior Officer at Rolta India Ltd., Mumbai—by presenting her with an uprana.

Dr. Bohra delivered an in-depth session on the benefits and techniques of acupressure. She explained how conditions such as migraine, headache, gas issues, sinusitis, cervical pain, vertigo, varicose veins, eye and nasal ailments, diabetes, BP imbalance, knee pain, and heel pain can be relieved through acupressure.
She not only demonstrated specific knee acupressure points but also conducted hands-on practice, enabling participants to learn effectively.

The camp provided:

Basic acupressure knowledge

Live demonstrations

Techniques for drug-free prevention and treatment

Dr. Bohra guided participants through self-practice on knee points and showed essential hand–foot pressure points for easy home use. She emphasized that acupressure allows individuals to treat themselves at home without side effects or frequent doctor visits.
She further highlighted that regular acupressure and yoga enhance focus, mental balance, energy, and confidence.

The presence of Dr. Rajshri Gandhi and Ashok Kadecha added dignity to the event, and both appreciated the meaningful initiative. More than 100 senior men and women from Arya Samaj participated, gaining valuable health knowledge and committing to incorporating acupressure into their daily lives.

Participants expressed their appreciation for the camp and pledged to practice the techniques regularly. Organizers assured that more such programs would be conducted to promote health awareness across all sections of society.
