Area of specialization: | I am into treating mostly chronic stuff—like autoimmunes, hormone swings, gut issues, sugar metabolism and all that lifestyle-linked mess which doesn't really get fixed with just pills. I go deep into Ayurvedic root-cause thinking, but also use labs and modern diagnostic tools when needed. My work mostly blends Panchabhautik Chikitsa (did a PG diploma in that) with clinical nutrition n personalized Panchakarma… not the spa detox type, the real therapeutic ones. I’m also trained in Agnikarma n Viddhakarma—yeah the heat+needle combo things, old school but still gold for joint pain, frozen shoulder, etc. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. I plan treatments based on body type, stage of disease and a person’s daily patterns... food, sleep, stress, all of it. Sometimes we go super minimal with herbs and just fix diet—that works better than ppl think. Main thing is to get balance back, not just mask symptoms. That’s where Ayurveda shines if you apply it right. |
Achievements: | I am grateful I got the Ayurvisharad Award from Himalaya Drug Co. few years back—wasn’t expecting it honestly but it meant a lot. That kind of thing just reminds you why you started in the first place. It wasn’t a big flashy ceremony or anything, but for me it felt like a nod to staying real with the work… sticking to classical Ayurveda, using evidence where needed n just doing right by patients. Stuff like that keeps me grounded even on rough clinic days. |
I am an Ayurveda practitioner with 14+ years in the field... kind of feels surreal sometimes, coz I still learn somthing new every week. Most of what I do is rooted in the classics—Charaka, Sushruta, the texts never fail—but I also believe in using whatever modern tools help make things more precise, especially when it comes to diagnosis or tracking progress. I’m not the kind to over-medicate or go for a one-size-fits-all plan. Never made sense to me. Each case is unique, and I treat it that way. What I mostly focus on is getting to the actual cause, not just calming symptoms for now n watching them come back again. That means a lot of time goes into diet correction, lifestyle resets and explaining things in a way that patients *actually* get what’s happening in their body. I like seeing patients get involved in their own healing, not just follow prescriptions blindly. Sometimes we even manage chronic stuff with minimal meds—just by adjusting food patterns n metabolism slowly back to normal. That part honestly makes me feel most connected to why I chose Ayurveda in the first place. Over the years I’ve treated all kinds of conditions—gut issues, metabolic imbalance, hormonal shifts, skin flareups, even some tricky autoimmune cases. Clinical practice keeps me grounded but I also keep an eye on research. Evidence matters. I’ve published and presented a few times, nothing flashy—just real data from real work. I use that to fine-tune protocols, esp around Panchakarma and Rasayana, which I use often but only where it fits right. End of day, I just want to offer safe and effective care without side-effects. Ayurveda can do that, if you understand the person as a whole—not just as a diagnosis. If you ask me, that’s what makes it timeless.
