Experience: | 15 years |
Education: | KATS Ayurveda College and Hospital |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly into classical Ayurveda, like the full-on authentic side of it—not just herbs and oils, but the deeper protocols too. I do a lot of Panchakarma, and not just the big dramatic detoxes ppl hear about online. I mean the real stuff—measured, step-by-step, and suited to that patient’s condition. Swarnaprashana Sanskar’s something close to my heart too, especially for building up immunity in kids. Honestly feels like we should talk about that more in public health spaces.
I also work with leech therapy—yep, Jalauka Avacharana—and yeah, it surprises some folks at first. But it’s one of those ancient treatments that still works wonders today. I use it mostly for varicose veins, painful swellings in joints, or sometimes tricky skin conditions where other methods are too slow or harsh. You really need to be precise with it though—timing, site, aftercare, all matter.
Every treatment plan I make is adjusted fully to the patient’s prakriti and roga sthiti. No shortcuts. I really try to stick to safe, natural healing—not just for results, but for sustainability too. It’s not flashy or rushed… just honest, detailed care. |
Achievements: | I am trained in Ayurveda (BAMS) and then kinda took a deep dive into nutrition too—got a certification in Nutrition & Dietetics from Apollo Medvarsity. I didn’t stop there tho. Went ahead and did specialized Panchakarma training under Kerala Ayurveda, which honestly changed a lot about how I look at chronic care. Now I try mixing classical detox with practical food plans. It's not always easy to balance both sides, but that combo really helps ppl feel better in real life, not just on paper. |
I am working as an Ayurvedic doctor for more than 14 yrs now, and honestly, still learning everyday—each case adds some new layer to how I understand healing. My practice is rooted in classical Ayurveda, but I also try to meet people where they’re at, you know? A lot of my work centers around chronic issues—gut problems, fatigue that won’t go away, metabolic stuff like diabetes or thyroid, hormonal swings, sleep issues, all that. And yeah, stress, that's a big one these days, and shows up in weird ways across the body. I use tools like Nadi Pariksha and Prakriti analysis for diagnosis—traditional yes, but incredibly detailed if you pay close attention. Panchakarma plays a big role in what I offer, not just for detox but also to reset the system gently when its overloaded. My approach usually blends herbal medicines, daily routine adjustments, food mapping (like real everyday food, not textbook diets), and sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit to notice what’s off. What I really try to do—besides treat the disease—is explain the why to patients. Why their digestion isn’t working, or why their headaches keep coming back after every period or deadline. I’ve found when ppl get that, they’re more likely to stick with the process and take ownership. And that’s when real shifts happen, when they stop waiting for “the cure” and start living differently. Over the years, many of my patients came to me after trying a bunch of things that didn’t stick. And many did find relief—especially when the plan was fully adapted to their constitution, season, job pattern, sleep cycle (which is off for many now), etc. It’s not flashy, but it works because it’s theirs. Right now I’m focusing more on preventive care, especially for younger people who are burning out fast. Long-term health isn’t just no disease—it’s steady energy, clear mind, clean digestion, and sleep that doesn’t need apps or pills. That’s what I keep aiming for in my practice: balance that’s sustainable, not just temporary. Ayurveda has tools for that, if we’re willing to use them slow, steady and with full attention.
