Education: | Jss Ayurveda Medical College and Hospital |
Academic degree: | Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am mainly into Panchakarma—like real Panchakarma not just oil massage thing ppl think it is. I’ve trained on all the classical procedures… vamana, virechana, basti, nasya and even raktamokshan. Each has it’s own protocol but tbh the magic is in matching the right therapy to the person’s vikruti & prakriti. I don’t jump into detox just coz someone ask for it... First I go deep into assessing their agni, dhatu strength, dosha status etc. without that, you risk more harm than help.
There’s a huge diffrnce between general cleanses and what Ayurveda means by shodhana. It’s slow, layered, need prep—snehana, swedana, proper samsarjana ahara after... and ya sometimes it’s hard to explain why we don't rush it. But in my practice I’ve seen ppl come back saying their skin is better, periods normalised or joint pain just eased without painkillerz. And that’s when I feel like yeah, this is why I do what I do. I always try to keep the process safe, tailored, and rooted in classical texts!! |
Achievements: | I am done with my MD in Panchakarma just few months back—March 2025—and my thesis kinda stayed with me. It was this open label study on Sthoulya where I tested Eranda Taila Nitya Virechana with n without Udwartana. Took a lot to plan all the steps, track changes and yeah some days felt like nothng's working lol. But in the end it really opened up how detoxification works in obesity cases.. real results, not just textbook ideas. Made me rethink protocols I use now!! |
I am an MD Scholar from JSS Ayurveda Medical College & Hospital with over 3 years of real, hands-on clinical expereince. I guess what drives me most is seeing how Ayurved actually works—like, not just in theory but in real people’s lives, with their messy routines and chronic stuff no one else seems to solve. Through my academic journey here, I’ve got to work pretty deep with patients right from intake till long-term follow-ups, and honestly that shaped my whole way of thinking. In OPDs and IPDs both, I’ve dealt with conditions like PCOD, Sandhivata, IBS, even stuff like stress-linked acidity or fatigue that doesn’t get enough attn sometimes. My way of working? I lean a lot on classical diagnostic tools—Nadi, Prakriti check, Vikruti mapping. And not just the dosha talk but actual patterns in diet, sleep, behaviour that keep people stuck in illness loop. I’ve tried making my case management more layered... Not just giving a kashayam or ghee, but figuring if Panchakarma is needed, or maybe it’s just that their agni is low and nothing’s absorbing right?? Sometimes all it takes is a better dinacharya, sometimes they need a full virechana detox. You can't know until you sit and really listen. One thing I push for is patient eductaion. Not preaching but like, sharing enough so they know what’s going on in their body. Especially in metabolic or hormonal issues, when they get it, they act differently, yk? Right now I’m balancing clinical rotations, my thesis, and field camps... yeah hectic but I like that pace. Keeps me alert. My goal is to keep refining my method where classical Ayurved meets practical tools that actually help patients in today's lifestyle mess. Whether it’s sthoulya (obesity) or amavata, or just someone who feels ‘off’ but all their tests are normal—my job is to see beyond reports and reach the root. That’s what I’m training for, and what I’m here to do.
