Area of specialization:
I am mostly into treating joint-related and spinal issues — arthritic stuff, chronic low back pain, cervical spondylosis, disc-related things... kind of where Ayurveda really shines if done right. Most of my day goes around seeing people who’ve been struggling with pain for years, trying different meds, and still stuck in the same cycle. I focus a lot on finding out where the imbalance is actually coming from — vata disorders, weak digestion, sometimes even stress, it’s not always obvious, right? And yeah, spinal complaints are tricky — they respond well, but only when therapies, diet, and routines all come together properly. I also deal with women’s health — like menstrual issues, hormonal irregularities, PCOS-like cases, fatigue that comes and goes with cycles. It’s not just about giving a few Kashayams. You really gotta look at the whole picture — stress, sleep, food, even how they’ve been feeling emotionally. That part matters more than ppl think. Besides that I genuinely like working on general wellness. Immunity boosting, prevention, bringing some order back into people's lifestyle when everything’s gone out of balance. I try to keep things simple but deep — no flashy cures, just real Ayurveda, done patiently, carefully... maybe not fast, but usually effective.
Achievements:
I am someone who ended up right in the middle of the COVID mess — like many others — and was part of the care efforts during that time. Wasn’t easy honestly, but I did what I could and got appreciated for being there consistently, treating patients when everything else felt too uncertain. Also, I’ve taken part in a bunch of medical camps, mostly in rural spots where people don’t usually get regular care. Helped organize some too, just to make sure we reached those areas. Little messy sometimes, but still worth it!!

I am an Ayurveda General Practitioner with lil over 3 yrs of solid hands-on clinical experience, currently practicing at Kottakkal Aryavaidyasala Agency. Most of my days are spent treating people with joint pain, arthritis (all types—RA, OA, even some rare ones), cervical spondylosis, low back pain, and a whole lot of musculoskeletal stuff that just doesn’t seem to go away for many folks. I’ve come to notice that chronic issues like these need way more than just pain relief... they need deep correction and a clear understanding of where the doshas are acting up. At the same time, I’ve also been managing women’s health cases — things like irregular periods, PCOS-related hormonal shifts, low energy, and even basic fertility-related concerns. I lean on classical Ayurvedic formulations and principles for all of these, not shortcuts. Every patient is different, and I’ve learnt over time that knowing a person’s *Prakriti* well makes a huge difference in how well and how fast they respond to treatment. Alongside treatment for diseases, I pay a lot of attention to boosting immunity and maintaining general wellness too. Sometimes that means a Panchakarma detox, sometimes just diet corrections or a lifestyle reset. It’s not a “one thing fits all” kinda thing — and I try to remind patients of that gently, cause many arrive with fixed ideas or past disappointment. Something else I should maybe mention — I’ve completed the Basic Life Support (BLS) training from the American Heart Association (AHA). That’s helped me stay grounded during acute scenarios or emergencies. Not everyday is textbook-perfect, so being prepared helps. I wouldn’t say I handle trauma cases daily, but it matters that I *can* step in responsibly if needed. My approach is clean, classical, and rooted in the real science of Ayurveda — I’m not into wellness trends or “quick detox” fads. If you’re looking for honest, patient-first, no-drama care, I try to keep it that way. Every case teaches something new tbh... and I’m still learning, every day. **Keywords**: Ayurveda general practitioner, arthritis treatment, joint pain, cervical spondylosis, gynecological disorders, Panchakarma, hormonal imbalance, Kottakkal Aryavaidyasala, BLS certified, Ayurvedic lifestyle care.
