Dr. Manjusha Dapurkar
Experience: | 5 years |
Education: | Shri Ayurved Mahavidyalaya |
Academic degree: | Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly working with people who deal with arthritis, esp. gouty arthritis—it’s a condition I keep seeing again n again and I’ve kinda grown into it as a core focus. I look at it thru Ayurvedic protocols that are built around inflammation control, pain relief, and getting that stiffnes/mobility part back on track—not overnight of course, but gradually, steadily. I also see quite a few patients dealing with fatty liver, high BP, thyroid swings, type 2 diabetes etc. these lifestyle things are just—everywhere now.
In my view, it’s never just “take this herb.” I mix herbal meds with some basic Panchakarma where needed and then there’s the real work: fixing routines, food, sleep messes, stress cycles. I really do try to make plans doable, not idealistic. With women’s hormonal issues like PCOS, I go gentler—supporting cycle reg, ovulation balance, etc. without suppressing stuff. I’m a big believer in patient education... once someone gets why they’re doing something, it sticks better. That’s where half the healing actually starts. |
Achievements: | I am someone who’s worked closely with over 150 ppl dealing with arthritis—esp joint pain n stiffness—and used Panchakarma n classical Ayurvedic therapy to get them moving better, living better. Not magic, just consistent work. Also helped more than 20 folks reverse early-stage fatty liver, which honestly is showing up way more now than it used to. I’ve also guided lots of women thru hormonal mess like PCOS or thyroid stuff... using more of a gentle, balanced approach, not aggressive detox or crash routines. |
I am Dr. Manjusha, an Ayurvedic physcian with a post-grad degree in Ayurvedic medicine n a lil over 5 years of clinical practice. I work at the place where ancient wisdom and modern lifestyle kinda meet. Not in a forced way, more like... organically? My thing is helping people feel better without just piling meds forever. I'm super into showing them how even small daily tweaks—like how they eat or sleep or even think—can reduce that heavy med dependence many folks end up stuck in. My process usually starts with understanding the person's prakriti (their body-mind blueprint basically), then doshic shifts, digestion, mental load, etc... all of it plays a role. Some patients come to me for knee pain, others for migraines, thyroid swings, or just this vague not-feeling-ok thing, and I try to make their plan theirs, not some one-size-fits-all chart. We look at their ahar, vihar, dinacharya. What’s practical, what’s not. I’m big on giving stuff that they can actually stick to, nothing fancy unless they want that. One thing I care a lot about is simplifying Panchakarma. It doesn't always have to be five-star resort level. I've been teaching patients how to safely adapt parts of it from home under guidance (of course!)—snehan, mild virechana, or even basic nasya. With right instructions and support, people really can manage more than they think. I also kinda dig education, not lecturing, just... talking plainly. Helping patients actually understand what’s going on, not just take what I say. Chronic cases are close to my heart—autoimmune patterns, long-standing hormonal mess, stubborn digestive stuff. And women’s health. It's weird how many ppl just normalize pain, or fatigue, or cycle issues, till they forget how good normal can feel. End of the day, I’m here to offer clarity and real support, not just herbs and charts. If you're ready to go deeper into your health story, not just patch it—maybe we work together. Maybe Ayurveda makes sense in your real life, too.
