ÖZET
 Sağlık hizmetlerine ve sağlık ile ilgili bilgilere erişimin kolaylaşması, insanların sürekli sağlık ile ilgili bilgilere maruz kalması, onları sağlık ile ilgili mevcut yenilikleri ve uygulamaları, hekimlerin teşhislerini sorgulamaya yöneltmiştir. Bu durum, bireylerin modern tıp uygulamalarının yanı sıra kültürel özellikler taşıyan bazı uygulamalara da yönelmelerine sebep olmuştur. Türkiye'de, bu uygulamaların yaygın olduğu, aynı zamanda da inanç ve kültür açısından, geleneksel tıp uygulamalarına yatkınlığı olan ülkeler arasında yer almaktadır. Son yıllarda, hızla gelişim gösteren söz konusu uygulamalar Türkiye'de, geleneksel ve tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamaları olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Dünya genelinde ise Hindistan'ın, felesefe temelli ayurveda, siddha, unani, yoga, naturopati ve homeopati gibi geleneksel tedavi yöntemleriyle öne çıktığı görülmektedir. Geleneksel tıp uygulamaları, sağlık turizmi açısından da büyük önem arz etmekte ve Hindistan gibi ülkeler, geleneksel tıp uygulamalarıyla çok sayıda turist çekmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'de ve Hindistan'da kullanılan geleneksel tıp uygulamaları, sağlık turizmi kapsamında ve literatür taraması yardımıyla incelenmiştir. Ayrıca çalışmayla bu uygulamaların, benzerlik gösteren ve farklılaşan yönleri belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda Hindistan'ın, geleneksel tedavi uygulamalarının, genellikle felsefe temelli düşünsel yöntemler olduğu ve bunun için kurulmuş bir bakanlık tarafından kontrol edildiği, her bir uygulama için turistik amaçları da karşılayan hastanelerin bulunduğu tespit edilmiştir. Türkiye'de ise yasal düzenlemeler yapılarak, geleneksel tedavi yöntemlerinin kontrol altına alınmaya çalışıldığı, ayrıca tesislere ve alt yapıya yönelik çalışmaların yapıldığı görülmüştür. Türkiye, turizm potansiyeli yüksek bir ülkedir. Aynı zamanda turizm alanında yaptığı tesisler ve alt yapı çalışmalarıyla dikkat çeken, turizm potansiyeli yüksek bir ülkedir. Modern tıbbi uygulamaların yanı sıra geleneksel tedavi yöntemlerinin de sağlık turizmi kapsamında değerlendirilmesi Türkiye'nin, sağlık turizmi piyasasındaki payının artması için önemli bir katkısı olacağı öngörülmüştür.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Geleneksel tıp; tamamlayıcı tıp; sağlık turizmi; Türkiye; Hindistan
