Serving to ameliorate or improve; tending to make better or provide relief (similar to ameliorative).
From 'ameliorate' plus the adjective suffix '-ory' (serving to, intended to). This variant provides an alternative to 'ameliorative' with a slightly more formal or technical tone.
Both 'ameliorative' and 'amelioratory' mean nearly the same thing, but 'amelioratory' sounds even more formal and technical—you're more likely to hear it in legal or medical contexts discussing treatments and reforms.
