Area of specialization:
I am mainly working with hair n skin problems in Ayurveda, trying to fix them from the root instead of just covering up the symptoms. Most of my work is with hair fall, dandruff, early greying or scalp irritations, and for skin it ranges from acne and pigmentation to eczema, psoriasis, urticaria… each one behaves so different in every person. I use herbal formulations, detox plans (depends on what’s needed, not everyone needs heavy shodhana), diet changes, and a lot of day-to-day lifestyle tweaks. Sometimes we find the trigger is in food, sometimes stress, sometimes hidden imbalances in doshas that have been there for years. I always look at the inside first, because that’s where the skin n hair health really start. For me, long term results matter more than quick fixes, so I try to build a plan that patients can actually follow without feeling like they have to give up everything they enjoy, but still get back that balance & natural glow.
Achievements:
I am working at an Institute of National Importance in Jamnagar, which has been around since the 1950s n honestly its like walking into history everyday. This place shaped a big part of Ayurveda research in India n still does, and being here kinda keeps you on your toes all the time. It’s not just patient care, there’s also the academic side where we keep learning and sharing, trying to stick to real Ayurvedic principles while also making them work for today’s world.

I am working in Ayurvedic skin care for the last 2 years, mainly with patients who have those stubborn chronic skin issues that just dont seem to settle with usual treatments. Most come to me after years of trying ointments, pills, even diets, and still the itching, rashes or patches keep coming back. I spend a lot of time figuring out what’s really driving it—usually there’s some deep dosha imbalance hiding underneath. I use herbal formulations, Shodhana (internal detox), Rasayana therapy, topical lepas, and a lot of diet + daily routine changes to help bring the body back to balance. Sometimes it’s about gut health, sometimes immunity, sometimes both tangled together in a way that needs slow steady fixing. I treat eczema, psoriasis, urticaria, vitiligo, acne and more… each case feels different, even if the name of the disease is the same. I look closely at the patient’s prakriti, triggers, lifestyle patterns—those small details matter. I keep my focus on natural, side-effect free healing because with chronic skin disorders, you’re not just aiming for today’s relief but trying to make sure it doesn’t just flare up again in 3 months. Over these 2 years I’ve seen people walk in with hopelessness and walk out after months with clear skin, better digestion, and more energy. That’s the part I hold on to—because skin health isn’t just about the skin, it’s the whole system working right. I keep follow-ups consistent, talk through every step with my patients, and try to give them the tools to manage their own health long-term. Ayurveda has shown me how restoring harmony between the body, mind & surroundings can change not just skin but the way someone feels in their own skin, and that’s the real goal for me.
