Area of specialization:
I am mostly working with skin n hair related stuff these days—things like acne, dandruff, hair fall, fungal patches that keep coming back, or rashes that won’t heal even after months. I use Ayurvedic therapies to handle those, usually through a mix of herbs, medicated lepas, and some diet changes (which honestly ppl often ignore at first 😅). But I like to go deeper, treat root imbalances not just symptoms. Alongside that I also treat children—had this 8 yr old boy with stubborn cough, got him better slowly using gentle herbs and rasayana. Right now I'm also seeing a 9 yr old girl with mental imbalance—it's a longer path, but we’re seeing small progress. With kids, the care’s gotta be softer, more rounded—not just physical, but mental/emotional angle too. I usually make customised plans, no copy-paste rx. Ayurveda gives us that flexibility, and I try to use it fully, esp when standard options dont work well.
Achievements:
I am usually not the type to count awards or such, like honestly, what sticks with me more is when a person who's been struggling—like with acne or hair loss or a child not improving on meds—starts showing results with Ayurveda. That shift. That smile when things actually begin working… kinda hard to explain but those are my real wins. Each recovery feels earned. Maybe slow at times, not flashy, but grounded. Natural healing that *actually* holds up, that’s what I'm most proud of.

I am a graduate of AYUSH University Raipur, class of 2015—that's where the Ayurvedic seed kind of sprouted for me. Right after that, I worked two years as a resident doctor, real hands-on time in clinics and wards where I figured out how theory meets real life (and it doesn’t always match up neatly). Somewhere along the way, I got really drawn to how skin, beauty and health kind of overlap, esp in Ayurveda. That curiosity led me into a Fellowship in Medical Cosmetology. Pretty rigorous, but I liked how it bridged both modern dermatology concepts and Ayurvedic skin science. These days, I run my own skincare clinic where I mostly focus on Ayurvedic Cosmetology—meaning, I blend classical therapies, herbs, and procedural stuff for things like pigmentation, acne, aging skin etc. I also got certified in Skin & Vulnerable Diseases, which helps a ton in diagnosis, esp when cases get a bit messy or don’t respond right away. Besides that, I did a Diploma in Garbhasanskar from NIA Jaipur, which kinda expanded my understanding beyond the physical—toward prenatal care, emotional health of expecting mothers and everything around that delicate phase. Altogether it’s been 9 years now. I’ve worked across wellness, internal medicine, preventive care, and of course cosmetology. I like working case-by-case, not really into one-size-fits-all. Ayurveda gives space for that, and I try to balance it with evidence-based judgement—sometimes even double-checking old classical texts when a case doesn’t go the usual way. Not every case ends in a dramatic transformation, but when it does? It’s really, really worth it.
