With over 18 years of dedicated Ayurvedic practice, I have focused extensively on treating skin and hair disorders, integrating classical Panchakarma therapies with individualized care. A major aspect of my clinical approach involves Upakarma procedures—supportive therapies within Panchakarma—which I customize based on each patient’s Prakriti (constitutional type). I believe true healing begins when treatments are aligned with the body’s natural balance, and this philosophy guides every aspect of my work. My specialization includes the preparation and use of Ayurvedic formulations that I personally design, including face packs, hair packs, body oils, and facial oils—each one carefully selected and recommended according to the patient’s specific dosha and skin/hair condition. These formulations are result-oriented and rooted in time-tested Ayurvedic principles, ensuring safe, natural, and sustainable outcomes. In my practice, Ayurvedic facials are more than just cosmetic procedures; they are therapeutic treatments tailored to the unique constitution of each individual, aiming to restore inner and outer harmony. By incorporating dosha-based skincare routines and traditional beauty therapies, I help patients achieve visible improvement in conditions like pigmentation, acne, hair fall, and premature aging—without relying on chemical-based solutions. My goal is to blend classical Ayurveda with a practical, patient-focused approach. Whether managing chronic skin concerns, offering customized herbal solutions, or delivering rejuvenative Panchakarma therapies, I ensure each treatment is deeply personalized, holistic, and rooted in authentic Ayurvedic wisdom.

Circular patches with intense itching around private parts can be indicative of a fungal infection, often caused by imbalances in the body’s inner state, according to Ayurvedic principles. A recurrence suggests that the root cause has not been fully addressed. Here’s an effective approach rooted in Ayurvedic wisdom to help combat this persistently.

Firstly, maintaining a dry and clean environment is vital as moisture can worsen fungal growth. Regularly wash the affected area with cool water and gently pat it dry rather than rubbing. Wear loose-fitting cotton underwear to aid ventilation.

Next, look into your diet, as it plays a crucial role in managing dosha imbalances. Reduce intake of sugar and processed food which can aggravate fungal conditions. Instead, opt for a diet balancing Vata and Kapha, including more fresh vegetables and whole grains. Use turmeric, both externally and internally, for its antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. A paste of turmeric mixed with a little neem oil can be applied topically for relief.

Digestive health is fundamental, so ensure your Agni or digestive fire is strong. Try warming spices like ginger and cumin in your meals, and sip on warm water throughout the day. Consuming Triphala powder at bedtime, mixed in lukewarm water, can help detoxify and balance the doshas.

Consistency in lifestyle also matters. Regular sleep, reduced stress and regular movement like walking or yoga can support your body’s natural healing processes. Pranayama and meditation can help reduce stress which, when unmanaged, could contribute to recurring infections.

Finally, in recurrent cases, it’s essential to have guidance from a practitioner to assess and manage your Doshas specifically. Each person is unique, so if symptoms don’t improve, consider seeing an Ayurvedic doctor for personalized consultation. While Ayurveda provides holistic approaches, always be cautious and prompt in seeking professional medical advice for persistent or worsening symptoms.

Hello, Maintaining hygeine is the key for the cure. 1. Wash the private parts with neem decoction/triphala decoction followed by drying the part well after each use. Once you feel fine switch to warm water wash followed by drying well. 2. Apply mahathikthakam lepam once you dry. 3. Mahanajishtasdi kashayam 20ml----0----20ml with 80ml of boiled warm water. 4. Nimba twak ghanavati 2—0—2 after food. For 90 days. Take care. Kind regards.

HELLO RAHUL,

You’re dealing with a recurring fungal infections, most likely tines curries(also called ringworm or jock itch) which causes -round or circular patches on your skin, especially around your private parts-inner thighs, groin area -severe itching, redness, and sometimes peeling or darkening of the skin -it may go away for a while but keeps coming back again and again

WHY IT HAPPENS AGAIN AND AGAIN? Fungal infections are caused by microscopic fungi(not bacteria), which thrive in warm, moist, sweaty areas- like the groin, underarms, or feet

In your case, this keeps coming back because 1)INCOMPLETE TREATMENT- the fungus may seems gone on the outside , but small spores stay inside the skin

2)SWEAT AND HUMIDITY- tight clothes or not drying the skin well can make it worse

3)USING STEROID CREAMS- these only hide the symptoms temporarily but allow fungus to grow deeper and stronger

4)WEAKENED IMMUNITY- due o fatty liver, stress, or poor digestion, your body isn’t fully fighting the infection

5)RE-INFECTION- using the same clothes towels, or bed sheets without hot water washing can bring t back.

Ayurveda says this condition is called Dadru, cause by an imbalance of the pitta (heat) and kapha(moisture/slime) doshas in your body. -your skin and blood get contaminated with toxins due to poor digestion, heat and dampness -this creates a perfect ground for fungus to grow and spread -steroid creams suppress the surface issues, but the root cause inside your body stays untreated- that’s why it keeps returning

INSTEAD OF JUST KILLING THE FUNGUS TEMPORARILY, AYURVEDA FOCUSES ON 3 THINGS 1)clean the blood and skin from inside- using herbal medicines and proper digestion

2)strengthen your immunity and liver- so that fungus doesn’t return

3)keep the skin dry and clean from outside- using natural anti fungal oils and powders

INTERNALLY START WITH DURATION- 6 to 12 weeks

1)GANDHAK RASAYANA- 2 tabs after meals morning and evening =potent anti- fungal, detoxifier

2)KAISHOR GUGGULU- 2 tabs after meals =blood purifier, balances pitta

3)AROGYAVARDHINI VATI- 2 tabs after meals =liver detox, supports fatty liver

4)TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime =gut cleanser, improves immunity

5)AVIPATIKAR CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm water at night =acid balance, reduces pitta

6)PANCHATIKTA GRITA GUGGUU- 2 tabs twice daily =treats deep-seated skin conditions

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

1)NEEM OIL+ COCONUT OIL(1:1)= apply over clean dry skin twice daily =anti fungal, cooling

2)JATYADI TAILA- apply before bed night only =repairs skin, reduces inflammation

3)TRIPHALA DECOCTION WASH- use as cleansing liquid- once/twic a day =anti bacterial skin toning

4)LODHRA+NEEM+HAIRDRA POWDER - make a paste with rose water for 30 mins once daily =reduces itching and infection

DIET RECOMMENDATIONS

AVOID -sugar, jaggery, sweets -fermented foods-idli, dosa,vinegar -dairy- especially curd , panner -fried oily food -meat, especially red meat -aclohol and carbonated drinks

IINCLUDE -bitter veggies- neem leaves, karela, methi etc -spices= turmeric , cumin, coriander, fennel -warm wtaer infused with turmeric or tripahala -fresh fruits- pomegranate, apply, papaya -herbaleteas= guduchi, manjistha, neem

DAILY PRCTICES -bathe with tripahala or neem water-boiled and cooled -keep groin area dry and clean -wear loose fitting cotton underwear -change clothes twice a day -sleep before 10 pm -practice pranayam- esp sheetali, anulom vilim -engae in light exercise or walking

AVOID -sharing towels, bedsheets, or cloths -sitting in sweaty clothes -excessive screen time late -increases pitta -mentral stresss(tiggers recurrence via immunity supresion)

timeline to healing

week 1-2= detox week 3-6 = skin healing, immune strengthening week 6-12 = maintenance and recurrence prevention

try medicated neem-based soaps- nimbadi soap, himalaya neem soap

I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

NAMASTE RAHUL JI,

Recurrent fungal infections, especially in warm and moist areas like groin can be persistent and frustrating. It’s common for people to use anti fungal creams and steroids which might give temporary relief but often lead to recurrence if not used correctly.

Recurrent fungal infections like this are often classified as -DADRU- in ayurveda= a type of kushta (skin disorder), characterised by red, circular, itchy patches.

It’s primarily caused by an imbalance of pitta and kapha doshas along with impurities in the blood(rakta dushti)

ROOT CASUES -excessive consumption of curd, fermented foods, sweets, non veg, or alcohol -poor hygiene or excess sweating -steroid use, which suppresses the symptom but worsens the root -weak digestion, leading to toxin buildup -impaired liver function

ENSURE THAT YOU ARE NO DEALING WITH -fungal resistance-common with over use of creams -poorly managed blood sugar -fungal infection spreading via clothes/towels -incorrect application of steroids-which can worsen fungal infection.

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) PANCHATIKTA GHRITA GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice daily after meals =powerful. skin purifier, acts on chronic skin infections

2) SARIVADYASAVA- 15ml twice daily after meals with equal water =blood purifier, liver supportive, reduces itching and inflammation

3) HARIDRA KHANDA- 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk =excellent for skin disease, itching, urticaria

4) CHANDANASAVA- 15 ml with equal water twice daily =cooling, anti inflammatory, useful in itching worsens with sweating or heat

TOPICAL APPLICATIONS

1) NALPAMARADI TAILA -apply on clean , dry skin 2 times daily =heals skin lesions, prevent secondary infections, anti fungal properties

2) SUDARSHAN CHURNA PASTE -mix with rose water or neem decoction and apply as a paste for 20-30 min daily =antimicrobial, clears infection faster

HOME REMEDIES

1) BATHE WITH NEEM LEAF DECCOTION -boilneem leaves in water

2) Mix equal part of neem powder + turmeric powder and talcum= in groin area

3) SLEEP HYGIENE= changes bed sheets weekly use breathable cotton fabric

4) Sun dry under garments and clothes

AVOID -milk+ fish, curd, sweets, and bakery foods -heavy, fried foods, or foods that aggravate liver conditions -bathing in cold water if sweating

TREATMENT DURATION -expect visible relief in 2-4 weeks but continue at least 2-3 months for full eradication -liver cleansing and blood purification is essential for permanent cure.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Jatin Kumar Sharma
I am a BAMS graduate and currently running my own clinic, where I see patients on a regular basis and try to give them honest, practical care. My daily work involves understanding different health concerns, listening properly to what the patient is going through, and then planning treatment in a way that actually fits their routine. I believe treatment should not feel confusing or rushed, and sometimes even small changes make a big difference. Running my own clinic has taught me a lot about responsibility and consistency. Some days are busy, some are slow, but every patient brings a different challenge and learning. I focus mainly on Ayurvedic treatment methods, lifestyle correction and long-term health balance, rather than quick fixes. There are times when progress takes longer, but I stay patient and keep working with the person step by step. I try to keep my approach simple, practical and honest. For me, real success is when a patient feels better in daily life, sleeps better, eats better and slowly regains balance. That is what keeps me going and improving every day.

Dr. Sumi. S
I am an Ayurvedic doc trained mainly in Shalakya Tantra—basically, I work a lot with issues of the eyes, ears, nose, oral cavity, head... all that ENT zone. It’s a really specific branch of Ayurveda, and I’ve kind of grown to appreciate how much it covers. I deal with all kinds of conditions like Netra Abhishyanda (kinda like conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early or full-on cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma stuff), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Pratishyaya (chronic colds n sinus), Mukhapaka (mouth ulcers), and even dental stuff like Dantaharsha (teeth sensitivity) or Shirashool (headaches & migraines). I use a mix of classic therapies—Tarpana, Nasya, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, even Gandusha and Dhoomapana when it fits. Depends on prakriti, the season, and where the person’s really struggling. Rasayana therapy and internal meds are there too of course but I don’t just throw them in blindly... every plan’s got to make sense to that individual. It’s kind of like detective work half the time. But honestly, my clinical work hasn't been just about Shalakya. I’ve got around two yrs of broader OPD experience where I’ve also handled chronic stuff like diabetes, thyroid issues, arthritis flares, PCOS, IBS-type gut problems, and some hormonal imbalances in women too. I kind of like digging into the layers of a case where stress is playing a role. Or when modern bloodwork says one thing, but the symptoms are telling me something else entirely. I use pathology insights but don’t let reports override what the patient's body is clearly saying. That balance—between classical Ayurvedic drishtis and modern diagnostic tools—is what I’m always aiming for. I also try to explain things to patients in a way they’ll get it. Because unless they’re on board and actually involved, no healing really works long-term, right? It’s not all picture-perfect. Sometimes I still re-read my Samhitas when I'm stuck or double check new case patterns. And sometimes my notes are a mess :) But I do try to keep learning and adapting while still keeping the core of Ayurveda intact.

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.
