Hello It’s totally understandable to be worried when you see rashes and blisters pop up on your little one’s skin. But dont worry we are here to help you out 😊

YOUR CONCERN

Your one-month-old baby has: – Panibhara bullae (blisters filled with fluid) that are popping and turning into little sores. – Otherwise, eating well and seem to have a good appetite.

Since your baby is so young (just one month!), we need to be extra careful with any treatments.

SUPER IMPORTANT! READ THIS!

–Daru Haridra (which is an herb called Berberis aristata) is known for fighting germs and helping wounds heal.

–BUT, you absolutely CANNOT give this to a baby as young as one month old. Your baby’s digestive system isn’t grown enough to handle strong herbal medicines yet.

–So, please don’t give it to them by mouth in any way – no powders, no special teas, nothing.

✅ SAFE AYURVEDA FOR BABY SKIN INFECTIONS

Here’s how we can approach this safely:

1. EXTERNAL CARE

You can use gentle herbal washes and oils. Don’t give anything by mouth for the baby directly.

A. Neem water wash –Boil 5-6 neem leaves in 2 cups of water. –Let it cool down until it’s just warm. –Gently clean the affected spots with a cotton ball once a day.

B. Coconut oil with a little turmeric –After cleaning, put a very thin layer of this on the skin. – It helps with infection and can soothe the sores.

C. Ayurvedic baby oils (if you want) –Stick to mild ones like Kumarika Taila or Bala Taila. Avoid any strong medicated oils.

2. TREATMENT FOR MOTHER

In Ayurveda, if you’re breastfeeding a baby under six months, sometimes the best way to treat the baby is by treating the mom.

You (the mother) can take some mild herbs that clean the blood and are safe while you’re breastfeeding:

* Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) – 1 capsule once a day * Manjistha – 1 capsule once a day * Sarivadi syrup – 1 teaspoon twice a day

These herbs make your breast milk cleaner and naturally help stop the infection from spreading to your baby.

DIET PLAN FOR MOTHER

✅ INCLUDE

* Warm, fresh, light meals. * Things like moong dal, rice, ghee, bottle gourd, and ridge gourd are good. * Drink lots of water.

❌ AVOID

* Spicy, oily, or fermented foods. * Too much tea or coffee.

Please call your pediatrician if any of these happen: * The blisters are spreading fast. * Your baby gets a fever, isn’t eating much, or seems really tired. * You see pus or a bad smell coming from the sores.

These could mean a more serious infection that needs antibiotics, even if you’re still doing the Ayurvedic skin care.

In short: Don’t give Daru Haridra to your one-month-old baby by mouth. Just focus on gentle skin care and mom’s herbs for indirect help.

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

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.

Hlo,

⚠️ महत्वपूर्ण चेतावनी (1 महीने की बच्ची के लिए): जिस तरह आप पानी भरे छाले (bullous lesions), फटना और घाव बता रहे हैं, यह नवजात में गंभीर स्थिति हो सकती है (जैसे bullous impetigo / neonatal skin infection).

👉 ऐसी स्थिति में स्वयं दवा देना सुरक्षित नहीं है। पहले बाल रोग विशेषज्ञ को दिखाना बहुत ज़रूरी है।

❌ Daru Haridra (दारुहरिद्रा) 1 महीने की बच्ची को मुंह से देना सुरक्षित नहीं

नवजात में oral Daru haridra contraindicated है

इससे लिवर, पेट और किडनी पर असर पड़ सकता है

✅ Ayurveda में क्या सुरक्षित किया जा सकता है (केवल बाहरी उपयोग) 🌿 Short Ayurvedic External Prescription (Safe) (जब तक डॉक्टर को दिखा रहे हों, सहायक रूप में) 1️⃣ निम्ब तैल (Neem oil) + नारियल तेल अनुपात: 1:4 रुई से हल्का सा केवल घाव के आसपास दिन में 1 बार

2️⃣ शतधौत घृत (100 बार धुला हुआ घी) फटे हुए छालों के बाद बने घाव पर दिन में 2 बार

3️⃣ हल्दी / दारुहरिद्रा पाउडर सीधे न लगाएं ❌ जलन व एलर्जी का खतरा

🚫 क्या बिल्कुल न करें Daru haridra, हल्दी, त्रिफला, कोई भी काढ़ा मुंह से न दें कोई आयुर्वेदिक सिरप / चूर्ण / रस न दें छालों को फोड़ना नहीं तंग कपड़े नहीं पहनाएँ

🚑 तुरंत डॉक्टर को दिखाएँ अगर: बुखार छाले तेजी से फैल रहे हों पस / बदबू बच्ची दूध कम पीने लगे सुस्ती या बहुत रोना

HELLO,

1) ABOUT DARU HARIDRA -It is an Ayurvedic herb used traditionally for skin infections, rashes and wounds -However, ora use in neonates (under 2 months) is not recommended because it can irritate the baby’s liver and gut. Babies this young have immature metabolism and may develop nausea, diarrhea, or jaundice if given herbal medicines internally

SAFE USE IN INFANTS -TOPICAL USE= daru haridra can be applied externally in very diluted forms for localised rashes or wounds -example= make a very thin paste with boiled water or Ghee + dark haridra powder -Apply only on affected area, avoid open wounds and large areas -ORAL USE= not safe for 1 month old babies

OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS FOR RASH/SKIN ULCERATION

1) CLEANING THE AREA= wash gently with lukewarm boiled water -pat dry softly , do not rub

2) TOPICAL HEALING -apply a thin layer of ghee or coconut oil mixed with very small pinch of Daruharidra on intact skin -For open wounds, use just clean ghee or honey, avoid strong powders directly

3) AVOID IRRITANTS -fragranced soaps, harsh detergents, or tight clothig

4) MONITORING - watch for fever, pus, spreading rash, or irritability, if these appear, seek paediatrician immediately

DIET/FEEDING -breastfeeding should continue as usual. Breast milk is healing for skin and immune system -Avoid giving dark haridra internally for now

THANK YOU

नमस्ते,

1) दारु हरिद्रा के बारे में - यह एक आयुर्वेदिक जड़ी बूटी है जिसका इस्तेमाल पारंपरिक रूप से स्किन इन्फेक्शन, रैशेज और घावों के लिए किया जाता है। - हालांकि, नवजात शिशुओं (2 महीने से कम) को इसे मुंह से देने की सलाह नहीं दी जाती है क्योंकि यह बच्चे के लिवर और पेट में जलन पैदा कर सकता है। इतने छोटे बच्चों का मेटाबॉलिज्म पूरी तरह से विकसित नहीं होता है और अगर उन्हें हर्बल दवाएं अंदर से दी जाएं तो उन्हें मतली, दस्त या पीलिया हो सकता है।

शिशुओं में सुरक्षित उपयोग - बाहरी उपयोग = दारु हरिद्रा को बहुत पतला करके लोकल रैशेज या घावों पर बाहर से लगाया जा सकता है। - उदाहरण = उबले हुए पानी या घी + दारु हरिद्रा पाउडर से बहुत पतला पेस्ट बनाएं। - सिर्फ़ प्रभावित जगह पर लगाएं, खुले घावों और बड़े हिस्सों पर लगाने से बचें। - मुंह से लेना = 1 महीने के बच्चों के लिए सुरक्षित नहीं है।

रैश/स्किन अल्सरेशन के लिए अन्य सुझाव

1) जगह को साफ करना = गुनगुने उबले हुए पानी से धीरे से धोएं। - धीरे से थपथपाकर सुखाएं, रगड़ें नहीं।

2) बाहरी इलाज - साबुत स्किन पर घी या नारियल तेल में बहुत थोड़ी सी दारुहरिद्रा मिलाकर पतली परत लगाएं। - खुले घावों के लिए, सिर्फ़ साफ घी या शहद का इस्तेमाल करें, सीधे तेज़ पाउडर लगाने से बचें।

3) जलन पैदा करने वाली चीज़ों से बचें - खुशबू वाले साबुन, तेज़ डिटर्जेंट, या टाइट कपड़े।

4) निगरानी - बुखार, पस, फैलते हुए रैश, या चिड़चिड़ेपन पर नज़र रखें, अगर ये लक्षण दिखें, तो तुरंत पीडियाट्रिशियन से मिलें।

आहार/खिलाना - स्तनपान हमेशा की तरह जारी रखना चाहिए। माँ का दूध स्किन और इम्यून सिस्टम के लिए फायदेमंद होता है। - अभी दारु हरिद्रा को अंदर से देने से बचें।

धन्यवाद

Daru Haridra (Berberis aristata) ek tikta, katu rasa wali herb hai jo Ayurveda mein raktashodhak aur krimighna ke roop mein use hoti hai. Ye bade bacchon aur adults mein skin rashes, wounds, aur infections ke liye helpful hoti hai. Lekin: - Nayi born / 1 month ke bacche ke liye Daru Haridra direct oral dose recommend nahi kiya jaata. - Is age mein liver aur digestion abhi develop ho rahe hote hain, aur tikta-katu dravya unke liye irritant ho sakte hain. - Agar bacche ko bullous rashes aur ghav ho rahe hain, to ye ek serious dermatological condition ho sakti hai jisme pediatrician ya dermatologist ki turant consultation zaroori hai.

Safe Ayurvedic Support (only external, gentle) - Sterile coconut oil / ghee application: wounds ko soothe karne ke liye. - Neem water gentle wash (bahut dilute, only if doctor allows). - Breastfeeding continue rakhiye — ye sabse best immunity booster hai.

Warm Regards Dr. Anjali Sehrawat

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am currently serving as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital, Nalgonda, where I specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of various ano-rectal disorders. My clinical focus lies in treating conditions such as piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), rectal polyps, and pilonidal sinus using time-tested Ayurvedic approaches like Ksharasutra, Agnikarma, and other para-surgical procedures outlined in classical texts. With a deep commitment to patient care, I emphasize a holistic treatment protocol that combines precise surgical techniques with Ayurvedic formulations, dietary guidance, and lifestyle modifications to reduce recurrence and promote natural healing. I strongly believe in integrating traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with patient-centric care, which allows for better outcomes and long-lasting relief. Working at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital has provided me with the opportunity to handle a wide range of surgical and post-operative cases. My approach is rooted in classical Shalya Tantra, enhanced by modern diagnostic insights. I stay updated with advancements in Ayurvedic surgery while adhering to evidence-based practices to ensure safety and efficacy. Beyond clinical practice, I am also committed to raising awareness about Ayurvedic proctology and promoting non-invasive treatments for conditions often mismanaged or overtreated by modern surgical approaches. I strive to make Ayurvedic surgical care accessible, effective, and aligned with the needs of today’s patients, while preserving the essence of our traditional healing system. Through continuous learning and compassionate practice, I aim to offer every patient a respectful, informed, and outcome-driven experience rooted in Ayurveda.

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 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. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Suraj Amber
I am practicing Ayurveda for about 8 years now, feels strange saying that because honestly the learning never stops. My work is all about finding balance in the body, not in some abstract way, but literally working with each person’s unique prakriti and the vikriti they’re dealing with at that moment. I follow the classical principles — herbal formulations, Panchakarma therapies, diet corrections, lifestyle tweaks — but nothing is “one size fits all”. Each treatment plan is shaped by the person infront of me, their health history, and the small details you only catch when you really listen. Over time I’ve worked with people dealing with digestion troubles, joint pains, hormonal shifts, stress-related health dips, and even stubborn chronic stuff that didn’t respond much to other methods. My approach is to go for the root cause first, because treating just the symptoms feels like putting tape over a crack... it hides it for a while but doesn’t fix it. That’s also why I focus on prevention — if you stop the imbalance before it grows, you save a lot of pain later. I keep my learning alive by reading classical Ayurvedic texts and joining continuing education whenever I can fit it in (sometimes late nights with too much chai). And I try to pass that clarity on to patients, explaining why a certain herb or therapy is chosen, what changes they might notice, and how they can keep supporting themselves after treatment ends. For me, this is more than just work. It’s a way of living… making choices every day that keep the mind, body, and emotions in some kind of harmony. My goal is still the same as day one — offer care that’s authentic, safe, and actually works for the long run, while making sure the person feels heard and understood through the whole process.

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.

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.

I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

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. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

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.
