Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly focused on figuring out what *your* body actually needs, not just handing out some fixed diet chart or random herbal mix. I work around your prakriti—like actual prakriti, not just ticking vata-pitta-kapha boxes without context. If someone’s struggling with digestion, anxiety, skin, fatigue or even hormonal stuff, I try to start from their baseline—what they're eating, how they’re sleeping, what’s disturbing their system on a day-to-day level. Then I build treatment plans that actually fit their life... not those ideal-sounding but hard-to-follow routines. I do a lot of personalised diet planning too, mostly based on the dosha balance and agni status, but I also look at season, work habits, even emotional patterns. Like, one plan doesn’t fit all—n I remind myself of that everytime someone asks "kuch ready plan milega kya?" Nope. Your gut tells a diff story than mine. That’s where ayurveda shines if we let it. Real individualization... not cookie-cutter solutions. |
Achievements: | I am kind of proud that I got to study and apply Ayurvedic diet therapy in a way that's not just theoretical.. like not just what looks good in books but actually works in people's routines n gut systems. Also did focused learning in Ayurvedic cosmetology—again, not the glam part but the real stuff... skin issues, hair fall, pigmentation, even the stuff ppl hesitate to ask. Lot of trial-error, lot of listening to what body reacts to. I guess that's where I really started growing confident in my work. |
I am someone who really tries to stick close to what ayurveda *actually* says, not just what sounds trendy or popular. I mean ya I practice Authentic Ayurveda, but that word "authentic" gets thrown around a lot... for me it means going back to the samhitas again n again—checking myself, not just going by memory or half-learned protocols. I’ve been treating patients for a bit over 3 years now, n I still feel like there’s soo much more to figure out each time a new case walks in. In practice I deal with whatever comes honestly, but mostly I’ve been seeing a pattern—patients show up late, like when the symptoms are too obvious to ignore. Whether it’s chronic gut issues, hormonal shifts, pain that refuses to go, or like skin stuff that flares up out of nowhere—Ayurveda has answers, but only if we slow down n listen. That’s the part I try to protect in my consultations: slowness, attention to detail, proper observation... all the things modern lifestyle tries to skip. Sometimes ppl ask me if I only give kadhas or if I do panchakarma too. I say—well depends. Every case doesn’t need the same tool. Some just need correction in ahara-vihar, some need classical meds. I don’t try to impress with complicated sanskrit words unless someone’s really interested. My thing is: make it work in real life. If a teen is struggling with acne from vitiated pitta, they won't fix it just by saying "apply this lepa"—you gotta explain what pitta *does* in their body, make them see the root. That kind of dialogue I really value. And yeah... I’m still learning, I read slower than I want to, n I probably overthink case sheets, but those 3+ years taught me that consistency in Ayurvedic thinking matters way more than shortcuts or flashy products. That’s what I offer. Quiet, solid ayurveda.
