Dr. Sariga Ravindran
Experience: | 8 years |
Education: | Amrita School of Ayurveda |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am working mostly with bone & joint disorders, gynecological issues and also anorectal conditions—that’s where a big part of my Ayurvedic practice lies. For me it’s never just about painkiller herbs or a quick lepa, I try to dig into the root imbalance first. Joint pain, stiffness, swelling—these are usually vata related but not always, sometimes it’s digestion or lifestyle behind it. I build plans with herbal meds, Panchakarma if really needed, and steady lifestyle correction.
In gynaecology, I treat menstrual irregularities, PCOD like cases, painful periods, even peri-menopause struggles. Here, balancing hormones with Ayurveda isn’t just medicine, it’s also food choices, sleep, emotional balance… all mixed together.
For anorectal issues—piles, fissures, fistula—I work with classical therapies, ksharasutra in some cases, but many patients manage well with herbs and diet corrections too. Each plan I make is customized, cuz same disease doesn’t mean same treatment.
My aim is simple: long-term relief and restoring natural balance, not just masking symptoms. |
Achievements: | I am actively involved in organizing and running seminars plus national-level conferences on Ayurveda and patient care. Those events gave me chance to share real clinical insights, not just theory stuff, and also listen to what other doctors are seeing in their practice. Sometimes hectic but worth it. Being part of these platforms let me contribute to building evidence-based Ayurvedic treatment dialogue, and also sharpen my own approach toward better, patient-centered healing practice. |
I am an Ayurveda doctor who kinda always felt drawn to natural healing more than anything else. For me, Ayurveda isn’t just a job or even just medicine—it’s more like a way of seeing health as a whole picture. My focus is on helping people get back balance, not just treating a symptom that keeps showing up again and again. I keep reminding myself that unless I find the root—whether it’s in diet, stress, sleep or just lifestyle imbalance—the result won’t hold for long. In my practice I design treatment plans around the person, not the disease alone. Every patient has their prakriti (constitution), habits, routines, even emotions that shape how illness builds up. I look into all that before suggesting herbs, detox or lifestyle edits. I manage chronic conditions like arthritis, skin problems, digestive issues, hormonal changes, stress-induced disorders… and tbh each case feels like a different puzzle. Panchakarma, ritucharya (seasonal regimens), and simple ahara-vihara (diet-lifestyle) corrections form a big part of my toolkit. I don’t see my role as just prescribing churna or tablets. For me, consultation also means explaining what’s happening in the body and why it matters. Education is healing too—when patients understand their doshas or how wrong food timing affects agni (digestive fire), they make changes that last. Preventive care excites me as much as treatment—teaching seasonal routines, detox, or daily habits that stop disease from settling in. Over the years I’ve seen transformations that stay with me. Someone who struggled for years with skin flares slowly finds clear skin, or a patient with long-standing acidity finally eats without fear. These aren’t just physical changes; often their confidence or mental peace grows too. That’s when Ayurveda feels the most alive to me. I keep reading classical texts, keep checking new Ayurvedic research—cuz staying updated makes me a better doctor. My aim each day is simple: create a safe and calm space where patients feel heard, and start healing the moment they step in. Sometimes that’s the real medicine.
