Experience: | 4 years |
Education: | Maharashtra University of Health Sciences |
Academic degree: | Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am currently diving deep into Kayachikitsa — that’s basically the main branch of Ayurveda that looks into treating the whole body, inside-out. I kinda see it as the core where everything connects — metabolism, immunity, stress response, digestion, all of it. My focus is on chronic conditions, things that don’t go away with quick fixes... like hormonal shifts, gut imbalances, joint probs, fatigue that just lingers. I usually start by figuring out what’s *really* off — not just looking at the symptoms but tracing it back, like what’s happening with agni, dhatus, even mental patterns sometimes.
Once I get that picture clear, I mix classical herbal meds, bit of Panchakarma where needed, and day-to-day changes that people can *actually* stick to. Not everyone needs deep detox right away — sometimes it’s just about nudging the system in the right direction. I guess what I enjoy most is the way Kayachikitsa allows space for fine-tuning... like you don’t have to rush healing. Just needs the right nudge at the right point. |
Achievements: | I am still kinda early in the whole “official achievements” thing tbh — no big awards or papers yet. But I don’t really see that as a gap. Right now, my main thing is just *doing the work* — learning through real-time patient care, trying to get better at diagnosis, understanding what herbs click with which conditions, testing my grounding in Ayurvedic texts against actual bodies & lives. Every case sorta becomes its own milestone, even if no one's clapping for it yet. |
I am Vd. Shital Kukade, a BAMS grad and right now doing PG in Kayachikitsa — that's basically the branch of Ayurveda that deals with internal medicine. Been practicing for about 3 to 4 years now, and in that time I’ve come across all kinds of health conditions — chronic stuff, new-age lifestyle issues, and those vague un-diagnosed patterns people walk around with for years. My core focus? Conditions like infertility, vaatvyadhi (which covers things like joint degeneration, nerve-related troubles), sthaulya (obesity), and those daily-life type issues that slowly eat away at mental and physical balance — like sluggish digestion, no energy, disturbed sleep, mood shifts. I work from a classical ayurvedic lens — meaning I try to trace things back to the root, not just patch the surface. Like, if someone has infertility, I don't just jump into treating the hormones — I look at agni, dhatu levels, manasik factors too. For lifestyle disorders, my approach usually combines herbal meds, Panchakarma therapies when needed, food mapping, and daily routine adjustments — nothing rigid or extreme, just sustainable. I really believe Ayurveda shines not only in curing disease but in restoring rhythm — like setting a person back into their natural groove. Prevention is big for me too. Right now, in my PG journey, I’m going deeper into the diagnostic subtleties of nadi, mala-pariksha, even mental constitution reading. Clinical exposure during this period has been super diverse — and that keeps sharpening my lens. Every case feels like a layered puzzle, and honestly I like that challenge. I don’t rush people through — I sit, I listen, sometimes just observing tells more than symptoms do. It's slow, sure... but it works when done right.
