Dr. Manita
Experience: | 5 years |
Education: | SR Ayurved University |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly focused on integrative cancer care—trying to bridge what Ayurveda can do with what the patient’s already going through in terms of modern treatment. My goal isn’t to replace chemo or surgery or whatever allopathy decides, but to *support* the body around it. I use Ayurvedic protocols to reduce fatigue, improve digestion, manage nausea, sleep, and immunity—things that get hit hard during oncology treatment.
I build every plan around the person. Not just based on the diagnosis or staging, but looking at their *prakriti*, how their agni’s doing, mental state, appetite, how much strength they have to handle detox or rasayana. Some patients are mid-chemo, others come after finishing cycles feeling wiped out... and what they need is very different.
My training in both systems helps me read reports and translate them into a care path that’s rooted in *siddhantas* but makes clinical sense too. It’s slow work, but it's honest. And for many, that makes all the diff. |
Achievements: | I am someone who’s always felt that awareness is as important as treatment—maybe more, some days. I wrote two articles on cancer awareness that got published officially, which felt good not just as a writer but as a physician trying to reach beyond just clinic walls. Over the years, I’ve had the chance to work with cancer patients from diff backgrounds—India, abroad, urban setups, rural too. Each case taught me how diverse healing really is... Ayurvedic care can bend, adapt, and still stay honest. |
I am someone who walks between two systems—Ayurveda and modern medicine—and that’s shaped pretty much everything about how I treat. I’ve got six+ years of clinical experience, with the first two years grounded in allopathic practice, followed by four years of dedicated Ayurvedic care, mostly focused on cancer management. That blend—classical Ayurveda backed by a proper understanding of diagnostics, labs, imaging—all of that helps me hold space for patients with complicated health stories. Especially when the diagnosis is something as heavy as cancer. My main work is with people going through cancer—whether they’re in chemo cycles, post-surgery, or trying to manage long-term side effects. I don’t promise miracle cures or shortcuts. What I do is support their vitality, reduce fatigue, boost digestion, manage pain where possible, and work on immunity using Ayurvedic formulations, diet, and cleansing routines like *shodhana*. But all of it is highly tailored. Like, I don’t use the same protocol for a breast cancer patient in post-op recovery and someone dealing with advanced GI malignancy. Their *prakriti*, stage, energy levels, appetite, even emotional state... it all guides what I offer. What I’ve learnt is, beyond meds and therapies, patients need clarity. They need someone who’ll listen properly. I try to give them that—through long consults, steady follow-ups, and honest explanations. Whether they choose to combine my care with mainstream oncology or come looking for support after finishing allopathy, I respect both routes. I also regularly interpret their reports—bloodwork, PET scans, histopathology—and map that alongside their *vikriti* from an Ayurvedic lens. It’s that dual view that often makes my approach feel more complete. Aside from cancer, I also work with chronic fatigue, digestion problems, inflammation-related pain, and post-COVID cases. But no matter what the issue is, my core goal stays same: restore balance, without forcing it. Healing has to be steady. Sustainable. And most of all, human.
