Doctor information
Experience:
4 years
Education:
JSS Ayurveda Medical College, Mysuru
Academic degree:
Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery
Area of specialization:
I am mainly focused on helping ppl with skin disorders and joint pain—these two kinda go hand in hand more often than we think. My whole approach is rooted in classical Ayurveda but honestly I make sure it fits *real life* too, not just theory. Stuff like eczema, acne, psoriasis on one side… and arthritis, frozen shoulder, chronic back pain on the other. All of these need deeper work. Like not just throwing a cream or painkiller at the problem and hoping it disappears.

I mostly use a mix of herbal formulations (tailored not random), internal meds, some detox if needed—plus food and daily routine tweaks, which is actually a big deal in these cases. Inflammatory stuff? Doshas outta balance? That doesn’t just go away without changing how you're living too. That’s where a lot of ppl struggle. They want results, but don’t always know what’s triggering things again and again.

Every treatment plan I give is built around the patient’s prakriti and current state—not just the diagnosis label. Long-term healing needs personalisation, not general protocolss. I just try to bring that into each case, however simple or complicated it looks at first.
Achievements:
I am not really into big awards or fancy titles tbh... what actually feels like an achievement to me is when a patient comes back and says *they finally feel like themselves again*. That part—that quiet shift in their energy, sleep, digestion, even mood—it means the treatment’s working. Every time someone recovers, even partially, it’s a reminder that Ayurved does *work*, and that I’m doing what I was meant to. Their trust? That’s the real reward.. nothing else compares really.

I am Dr. Soumya, trained in Ayurveda with a BAMS and MD—though honestly, it’s not just about degrees. For me, this path’s always been about understanding people, their bodies, their patterns, and all the small things that go out of sync and turn into disease over time. My work is rooted in classical Ayurvedic science, and I try to keep it practical, not preachy... like yeah, texts are ancient, but the health issues people face today? Very much real, very now. My clinical focus is mainly on chronic stuff—hormonal disorders, skin conditions that flare & fade, joint and back pain that won’t quit, digestive messes, and lifestyle disorders like stress or obesity that just sneak in and stay. I spend a lot of time figuring out *why* the imbalance started—dosha shifts, wrong daily routine, ama buildup, whatever it is—and we build from there. Most of the treatment I give includes herbal medicines, Panchakarma therapies when needed, and def a lot of diet & routine planning that’s custom. Cookie-cutter diets just don’t work here. One of the things I always focus on is prakriti. If we don’t understand someone's constitution, how can we help their healing be real & lasting? Also, I kinda feel patient education is half the treatment. When someone gets why their sleep, food, stress levels are causing X,Y,Z symptoms—it clicks. Then they start owning their recovery. That’s really powerful to see. I keep my consults open, meaning I let the patient talk, explain their side. And sometimes yeah, that takes a bit longer, but that’s where the story is—right? You can’t plan proper care if you don’t know the full picture. I don’t just treat, I try to help them *see* how Ayurveda works for *them*. Not in theory but like day-to-day life. I’m constantly learning too. Because even if the principles don’t change, the way they show up in people’s lives kinda does. And that keeps me adapting. I want my practice to feel human, grounded, not robotic. If you’re looking for quick fixes, probably not the right approach. But if you’re up for a deeper, long-term reset—yeah, then we’re on the same page.
