Dr. Sonika Kumawat
Experience: | 1 year |
Education: | Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan Rajasthan Ayurved University |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am usually good at managing both OPD and IPD, and i actually enjoy talking with patients... not just giving meds but like really talking, understanding where they're coming from. That makes a big difference trust me. I’ve handled different kinds of patients—some who are new to Ayurveda, some who've tried everyting else first. Communicating the line of treatment clearly helps ease half their stress honestly.
I regularly plan lifestyle corrections and customised diets... based on prakruti, dosha vikruti, season etc (and ya sometimes even budget, bcoz not everyone can follow complex meal charts). I’m also trained in doing therapies like Nasya, Shirodhara, Basti, Uttarbasti, Virechana, Vaman and Leech therapy—though tbh I only suggest invasive ones after full assessment... can’t just go by symptoms, right. And Agnikarma too—I know it sounds scary to people at first lol but when done right, it brings solid relief in chronic pain cases.
What I feel really matters is syncing the treatment to the patient's daily life—like not making them feel it’s one more burden to carry. I try to simplify things... and make sure they know why each step is suggested. That's what I aim for in my practice—clarity, trust and natural healing that actually works for their body & mind both. |
Achievements: | I am very particular about history taking, like really diving deep before jumping into diagnosis. I feel that’s kinda where most mistakes happen if we rush. For me, a healthy mind and body start with daily food & lifestyle—not just meds. Every person has a different prakriti, and their reactions to treatment, diet or even sleep cycles can vary a lot... that's why I always tweak advice to fit them, not just the textbook. That’s what keeps the healing more real and long lasting!! |
I am someone who’ve always felt drawn toward the deeper layers of healing, not just symptom-fixing kinda stuff. I worked for about a year at Panchamrut Ayurveda and Fertility Center in Udaipur, and that time honestly taught me a lottt. Like, not just in terms of patient load or practice, but more like how complex human body and mind is, especially when you’re dealing with fertility cases... which is not just physical, right? It's emotional, it's hormonal, it's stressful, sometimes heartbreaking too. During my time there, I got to assist in the treatment of couples facing infertility—both male and female factor issues. That was the first time I really understood how layered these conditions can be. PCOS, endometriosis, low sperm motility, recurrent miscarraige, stress-related hormonal disruptions... I saw all of that, up close. And working in an Ayurvedic setup gave me tools that were both powerful and gentle. Panchakarma was a big part of our protocols, but it wasn’t just detox for the sake of it, we’d really assess koshtha, agni, dosha sthiti, lifestyle triggers—basically trying to get to the root. Not easy, but very fulfilling. I was also involved in patient counseling there, which I didn’t realise earlier how imp it is. Like, people don't just need a prescription—they need someone to listen. Honestly sometimes even just explaining what’s happening inside their body makes them feel 10x better. And I learned to do that—how to explain Ayurveda without too much jargon, keep it real but still rooted in classical science. Apart from fertility, I also assisted in cases with hormonal imbalances, painful periods, irregular cycles and post-natal recovery support. A lot of times, those who came for fertility treatment actually left feeling better in other areas too—digestion, skin, mental clarity, energy... bcoz that’s what Ayurveda does, right? It balances, not just targets. Anyway, that one year at Panchamrut honestly gave me a foundation I still stand on. It shaped how I see patient care—not just as a doctor doing a job, but as a human helping another human heal. That part really stuck with me.
