Academic degree: | Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly drawn towards cases that involve the gut, skin, hormones and joints—kinda the stuff that lingers quietly or flares up when ppl least want it to. I work on things like indigestion, bloating, hyperacidity or even chronic constipation...but not just by giving churnas or random gut herbs. I try to look at what the body is saying underneath it. Like in eczema or psoriasis, it’s rarely just a skin thing right? There’s deeper heat, liver imbalance, sometimes emotional weight too.
In diabetes cases, I really focus on stabilizing metabolism and reducing insulin resistance but without making patients panic over sugar levels 24/7. I help with PCOS, irregular periods, and fatigue cycles, especially when someone’s like “nothing is working even with pills.” It's not always fast, but I use ahara-vihara-based planning along with deep dosha assessment. Arthritic patients—I guide pain relief, mobility, and joint strength, especially when swelling or stiffness becomes a daily struggle. And yeah, treatment changes with season n’ prakriti every time. Each one is a new puzzle. |
Achievements: | I am honestly not much into medals or awards or anything fancy—like the real win for me is when a patient walks in with all that pain, confusion, or just no hope and later walks out clearer, lighter, healing for real. Those moments where someone says "this is the first tym I actualy feel better"—that hits diff. I kinda live for that. Each smile, each trust rebuilt in Ayurveda, that's what keeps me showing up. And yah, every case like that feels like my actual achievment. |
I am working as an Ayurvedic Consultant for like 5+ years now, and honestly—it’s been a journey figuring out how to blend classical Ayurved with what ppl today actually need. I mean, I don’t just hand out herbs and hope for the best. I spend time going into why someone’s body is reacting the way it is. Whether it’s long-term gut stuff, hormonal ups n downs, joint stiffness that doesn’t go away or stress that just sits there quietly in the system, my goal is to see the pattern not just the pain. I mostly work with chronic and lifestyle disorders, things like IBS, acid peptic kinda issues, joint pains, PCOS, thyroid stuff, and people who are like burnt out from daily life. I do try to follow classical samhitas as close as possible but yeah I also keep an eye on labs n all when needed. Panchakarma—yep, I do that too. Not just the fancy detox type, but the real protocol-based ones. Proper pre-op and post-op. I’m quite particular about it. Plus I suggest diet tweaks, small lifestyle shifts, even when people are like “oh I can’t change anything,” there's always some space. What matters to me most is when someone says they feel heard. Because I always try to go through their whole history—not just dosha-type thing, but prakriti, lifestyle habits, stress triggers, even what they’ve tried before. Sometimes they’ve tried a lot. I kinda feel responsible to not repeat all that but offer something that sticks. Over these years, I’ve realized that Ayurveda isn’t always about a ‘quick result’...it’s a dialogue between the body and the medicine, and it needs patience. And I tell that openly to patients, not everyone likes hearing it, but those who stay usually feel better for the long run. At least that’s what many of them say. I keep refining my approach, learning thru practice, reading, and those rare but super insightful cases that teach more than any textbook. What keeps me going is knowing that true healing—like deep-seated change—is possible. Not just in theory, but in everyday real ppl who walk into my clinic not expecting much and end up sleeping better or living pain-free again. That’s the bit that makes this worth it.
