Clinics
AMURTEL works with Abha Light Foundation and receives invitations from all over Kenya to conduct mobile clinics. Trainee-graduates work in teams and go out regularly to 10-12 sites a month.
The mobile homeopathic clinics in Africa are a response to the need for inexpensive but effective medical treatment especially in the areas deprived of medical facilities. Homeopathy is nearly unknown in most parts of the African continent. Yet the high costs of conventional (allopathic) medicines gives little choice to the people, most especially the poor, except to leave them to suffer and die from their diseases untreated.
Patients of the clinic
In Eastleigh Nairobi, Abha Light's clinic sees a constant flow of patients from the surrounding slums of Mathare Valley and Eastleigh. Most of the patients can't afford to pay for their treatment. While about 75% of the patients are HIV+, the clinic attends all patients freely. Its the policy of the clinic to never turn away a patient for lack of fees.

Special seminars for HIV/AIDS caregivers
Treating People Living with AIDS with homeopathy and
natural medicine.
Based on our experience in the treatment of HIV/AIDS with homeopathy and
natural medicine, Abha Light gives 2, 3 and 5-day training sessions for
AIDS HOME BASED CAREGIVERS, COUNSELLORS and NURSES.
ALF teaches home-based caregivers how to use homeopathy in a first-aid
situation for their clients: coughs, diarrhea, skin problems, and common
ailments to HIV sufferers are addressed. Nutrition and Naturopathic
interventive therapy based on the books Great Health, Naturally! 1 & 2
is a main part of the training. Caregivers learn how to manage HIV
effectively for their clients.
