Nutrition Online Ayurvedic Consultation — page 6

I’m Dr. Maitri, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Dravyaguna (Ayurvedic Pharmacology), with a strong foundation in classical Ayurvedic herbs and their therapeutic applications. I currently run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli, where I have been practicing for the past two years, offering personalized treatment plans rooted in the principles of Ayurveda. My clinical focus includes the management of PCOD, skin and hair disorders, and joint-related conditions such as arthritis, stiffness, and back pain. By integrating my academic training with hands-on experience, I strive to provide treatments that are both effective and sustainable. I place a strong emphasis on understanding each patient’s prakriti (individual constitution) and tailor therapies using medicinal herbs, dietary corrections (ahara), and lifestyle guidance (vihara) to restore balance and long-term health. Having a background in Dravyaguna allows me to apply the power of plant-based medicine with precision. I deeply study the rasa, guna, virya, vipaka, and prabhava of each herb before selecting them for my formulations. This ensures that my prescriptions are not just symptomatic but deeply curative, targeting the root causes of disease. In my practice, I have seen encouraging results in cases of hormonal imbalance, acne, pigmentation, premature hair fall, and chronic joint pain. I also guide patients through seasonal detox plans and rejuvenation therapies to enhance vitality and prevent recurrence of illness. I am passionate about making Ayurveda understandable and practical for today’s lifestyle. Whether it’s managing modern-day metabolic issues or offering natural beauty solutions, my goal is to empower patients with holistic tools for long-term well-being. As I continue my postgraduate journey, I remain committed to deepening my knowledge in medicinal plants and applying that wisdom to help patients heal naturally and completely.

I am currently practicing at Pranav Ayurveda Clinic in Saharanpur, since Jan 2025, where I’m mainly into chronic conditions—like joint probs, gut issues, hormonal disbalance and ya lots of skin stuff too. I usually go deep into patient history, n then plan out stuff like classical formulations or detoxes (Panchkarma mostly), sometimes Rasayan therapy if it’s really needed. I’m pretty comfortable with Nadi pariksha & Prakriti typing, but tbh I do check modern reports too when necessary—just to get full picture. I also handle most of the Panchkarma therapies here, Vamana, Basti, Virechan etc., and kinda pay lot of attn to hygiene & patient comfort during those. We keep things traditional but also, like, safe & realistic. There’s this part I really enjoy—teaming up with yoga folks n dietitians, we try to build seasonal or Dosha-specific healing routines. Makes a lot more sense than doing just meds right? Like it becomes a whole thing. I also follow up quite close on my cases—checking how things are moving, tweaking the meds or therapies if required. Outside consults, I get involved in awareness events—sharing stuff on Ritucharya, Dincharya, or daily Ayurvedic hacks that ppl actually find useful. And yah, I also help with product ideas in clinic's herb lab...making sure we don’t lose the authentic touch in formulas, which matters lot these days. Working here really taught me how different every case can be—even when the symptoms sound same. And that's kinda what keeps me grounded in Ayurveda.
