Our Team of Ayurvedic Experts — page 9

I am Dr. Brijesh Kumar Verma, completed my BAMS from NEIAH Shillong, which gave me a strong base in classical ayurveda. Alongside that formal study, I always felt the need to go deeper into specific areas, so I took certificate courses from BHU and NIA Jaipur.. both places gave me different kind of exposure, like how preventive care can be applied practically and how therapeutic interventions need to be fine-tuned for each patient. Those learnings stick with me even today in daily practice. Right now I am working as a Resident Medical Officer, and this role really keeps me grounded. Being there round-the-clock means you see everything from minor issues to complex chronic cases, and you learn to make quick decisions but still with compassion. Hospital setting has pushed me to grow, to balance clinical accuracy with patient’s emotions, because people don’t just bring symptoms, they bring their worries, family pressure, sometimes even fear. In treatment, I focus on finding the root cause instead of patching symptoms. My plans are not cookie-cutter, I try to study prakriti, vikriti and then design a mix of herbs, Panchakarma where suitable, and lifestyle changes that are doable. I also stress preventive care, simple dinacharya and diet corrections can make a big shift if someone is willing to commit. Ayurveda for me is not only old wisdom but something that must adapt to current times. I like staying updated, reading newer clinical work, and merging that with authentic principles. Patients deserve ethical care, no shortcuts, and I want to keep refining myself as a physician who can deliver sustainable healing. Each consultation I see as a chance to bring someone a little closer to balance—body, mind, spirit—and that thought keeps me moving forward everyday.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with about 5 years of clinical work, and most of my focus is on treating people by really going deep into the root cause rather than just quieting the surface level symptoms. My consultations happen both face to face and online, through platforms like Practo and NirogStreet, which actually lets me connect with patients in diff regions, sometimes even far away villages or cities where they don’t have easy access to Ayurvedic care. I spend good time understanding prakriti and vikriti before suggesting anything, that step feels most important to me. Last year I started my own clinic, Adi Ayurveda. Running it has been both exciting and honestly a bit overwhelming at times. Here I see all kinds of cases—lifestyle disorders like diabetes and thyroid issues, hormonal imbalances, gynecological problems such as PCOD or irregular cycles, plus skin and hair conditions like acne, pigmentation or hair fall. Digestive concerns and stress-related issues are also very common. For each patient I try to make a clear plan, usually involving herbal medicines, Panchakarma therapies when needed, diet adjustments, and lifestyle corrections drawn straight from the classical texts. I really believe that true healing happens when patients start knowing their own body better, like why their digestion weakens or why stress keeps triggering illness again and again. That’s why my consultations are not just about writing prescriptions but also about educating and guiding people so they can take part actively in their own recovery. Preventive care feels as important to me as treatment itself, because if balance is maintained early, so many diseases never even show up. Through both my clinic and online practice, my aim is to make Ayurveda more accessible and also practical for modern life. Some patients just want quick fixes, but when they see results of a more holistic approach—better energy, better sleep, lighter mood—they start to value long-term wellness. My goal each day is simple: deliver safe, natural, effective care that helps people move toward balance, whether it’s for chronic illness or preventive health.

I am an Ayurvedic physician who like to keep my practice rooted in both classical texts and what I’ve learned hands-on with patients. My main areas of work have been Panchakarma, Ayurvedic cosmetology, and women’s health. For two years I worked as a Panchakarma Medical Officer, and during that time I treated wide range of chronic and lifestyle related health problems. What I learned most there was how every Panchakarma plan—whether it’s Basti, Nasya, Virechana, Abhyanga—needs to be adjusted for prakriti and the specific imbalance, not just applied in a standard way. Those years taught me a lot about precision, patience, and how deeply these therapies can shift a persons health. Later, I pursued training in Ayurvedic cosmetology, which opened another layer of practice for me. Many people come worried about acne, pigmentation, hair fall or dandruff, and while they expect only creams or oils, I always look for the deeper link—digestion not working properly, hormonal misbalance, stress load, etc. I try to combine herbal applications, proper ahar guidance, some internal medicines if needed, and external Ayurvedic skin and scalp therapies. It’s about fixing the cause and not only masking the sign. Now I am serving as an Ayurveda Resident Gynecologist. This role is quite demanding but also fulfilling, since women’s health is so central and yet often neglected. I see cases of PCOD, menstrual disturbances, infertility, menopausal changes, uterine problems, and more. My approach is to bring together Panchakarma detox where needed, herbal formulations, diet therapy, and lifestyle counselling. Each woman comes with her own story, her own prakriti, and it’s my responsibility to shape treatment to that, not to the textbook alone. Overall my philosophy is simple: personalize everything. Whether it’s Panchakarma, cosmetology, or gynecology, I work to design care plans that restore balance in body, mind, spirit. I want patients not just to feel better for a while but to be able to sustain wellness on their own. Education, awareness, and compassionate guidance are as important to me as the medicines or procedures. In the end, authentic Ayurveda is about harmony, and that’s the path I try to keep alive with every patient.

I am Dr. Aswathy K.P, and for me Ayurveda is not just a proffession, it’s kind of a life path I follow everyday. When I sit with a patient, I don’t only look at their symptoms or reports, I try to see the whole picture—how they eat, how they sleep, what kind of stress they carry, even the small habits that affect balance. That’s why my consultations usually feel more like conversations than just a clinical exam. My training in classical Ayurveda gave me the tools to understand prakriti and vikriti, and I use that as the base for every treatment plan. Some patients need more herbal formulations, some need detoxification like Panchakarma or simple diet correction, others respond better when lifestyle and yoga are integrated. It’s always a mix, always personal, because no two bodies or minds are ever the same. I mostly work with lifestyle disorders—stress, hormonal issues, digestive complaints that never seem to settle, also chronic problems where people come after trying many other treatments. Over the years, I’ve seen how even small shifts like dinacharya or ritucharya, when practiced consistently, can bring deep healing. And yes, I do believe education is as important as medicine. Patients who understand their own body better usually heal faster and stay well longer. I see my role not only as a physician but also as a guide, someone who can support patients to find balance within themselves. Whether it’s using Abhyanga, Nasya, or just mindful living practices, my goal is always long-term health and not quick fixes. At the end of the day, what keeps me grounded is seeing people regain vitality and joy through authentic Ayurvedic care—it makes the hard work feel worth it, even on the long days.

I am working in Ayurvedic practice with a steady focus on Panchakarma and just... whole-person care, really. Not the kind where you toss a few herbs and hope for the best, but like actually sitting with someone, figuring out *why* their system’s gone off track—be it chronic fatigue, digestive mess-ups, hormonal swing, or just this constant low-grade stress that doesn’t go away no matter what. That’s where Panchakarma made sense to me early on—not just detox for the sake of it, but a way to reboot the whole system if done right. Most of my clinical work circles around using deep classical protocols—Abhyanga, Basti, Nasya, Shirodhara, Patra Pinda Sweda—all that—but in real life, they only work when matched to the person’s prakriti, agni, strength & actual complaint. You can’t just repeat the same line for everyone, no matter what the textbooks said. Like some folks respond fast, others feel worse before they feel better—it’s all about watching patterns, tweaking things. I like working that way. It keeps things grounded. I mostly deal with long-standing complaints—not quick colds or minor imbalances. More like chronic joint stiffness, IBS-type guts, anxiety mixed with fatigue, sleep disorders, cycle problems, and even people who’ve already been through allopathy for years and now feel stuck. For them, Panchakarma's not just curative—it becomes this turning point. But yeah, it takes work from both sides. Outside of therapy room, I also push for practical lifestyle corrections—dinacharya, ritucharya, food maps they can *actually* follow, small breathing habits to regulate vata overload, things like that. I'm kinda particular about not overloading people with too much at once tho—changes have to stick, not impress. End of the day, my role’s not to “fix” everything, but to guide healing where body already wants to go—just needs support. That belief shapes every plan I make. Sometimes it works fast, sometimes we wait—but when you get it right, the shift is solid.

I am currently working as the Chief Consulting Physician at Oushadhi, Angamaly—which honestly gives me a pretty unique space to practice real, grounded Ayurveda. Oushadhi being Kerala's state-run Ayurvedic medicine manufacturing unit, we see a wide, *really wide* range of patients… chronic cases, lifestyle disorders, people looking for detox, some just curious about what Ayurveda can do. My work mostly involves clinical consults, figuring out treatment blueprints, monitoring Panchakarma plans, & adapting classical formulations into actual day-to-day patient care. What I like is—nothing here feels theoretical. It's not about just giving a churnam or oil n moving on. Every case makes me step back & see the full picture—how they eat, sleep, what their work stress is like, even what season they're in. Ayurveda always says it, but it’s another thing to apply it every single time with fresh eyes. My clinical focus is quite broad, but I tend to work more on chronic pain, gut health stuff, skin issues (esp long-standing eczema, psoriasis), metabolic syndromes, stress & burnout. Infertility, too, keeps showing up—often as a background issue—and I don’t think people always realize how linked it is with digestion, liver function, even unresolved emotional stuff. I try to go beyond just the “symptom-treatment” pattern. I do a lot of seasonal detox protocols & Rasayana-based therapy plans, esp for patients who’ve been through multiple rounds of meds or who feel drained all the time… sometimes it’s not disease, it’s depletion. Working in a place like Oushadhi also lets me stay close to the formulations themselves. I actually *see* how things are made, which herbs are being sourced, what batches look like. It definitely sharpened my trust in classical combinations—but also made me more careful with dosing and timing, since every patient’s agni, dhatu strength etc is diff. To me, Ayurveda isn't just this alternative system—it’s more like a slow, deep re-alignment, and I try to guide patients through it with care, patience and real conversations.

I am a general physician and surgeon—means I’m usually somewhere between diagnosing tricky symptoms and actually stepping in when surgery’s needed. My background is grounded in solid internal medicine. I handle acute stuff like infections or injuries, but also long-term conditions, metabolic things, stuff that needs monitoring. I don’t just hand out meds, I try to *understand* what's going on beneath the surface and where it might be headed if ignored. Surgery? yeah, that’s part of my practice too. Minor procedures mostly—done enough to know that precision isn't just about technique, it’s about timing, safety, and really knowing what that patient needs before & after. It’s not just “cut and done”. Post-op care matters. Even a small mistake in that can set things off balance. I’ve learned to watch the little signs, adjust plans fast, and keep follow-up tight. Whether it’s outpatient visits or emergency work, my aim is usually the same—catch things early, avoid escalation, help the patient feel like someone’s paying attention for real. I work closely with preventive care too. If I can help someone avoid a hospital stay through a few lifestyle corrections or early intervention? That’s honestly a win. I believe in talking straight. My patients should know *why* we’re doing what we’re doing. No vague talk or keeping people in dark. Open conversations help people make the right calls—not just for now but long run too. That’s one thing I always push for: keep them in loop. Medicine keeps shifting—new research, updated guidelines. I do try to keep learning constantly. Not just for the sake of it, but ‘cause protocols change. Techniques improve. I don’t want to be the guy who sticks to old ways just 'cause it's easier. That’s lazy, honestly. In the end I just try to treat the whole person not just the lab reports. And whether someone walks in with a swollen leg, a fluctuating sugar level, or vague chest pain—I take it seriously, every single time.

I am Dr. Yogesh, and I’ve been practicing Ayurveda for about 3 years now—still learning, still refining, but fully committed to this path. I mostly work with cases where the root cause is buried under layers—like infertility, PCOD, diabetes, chronic acidity, or IBS. The things that don’t really go away with short-term meds or just dietary fads. What really drives me is figuring *why* something’s happening, and then building a plan from that point—not just treating what shows on the surface. I work a lot with couples who are trying to conceive. And every couple is different, honestly. I don’t go by diagnosis labels alone—one PCOD case can look nothing like the next. I take time to assess *prakriti*, *vikriti*, stress levels, agni, sleep cycle—everything. I use herbal formulations, detox when it fits, food routines, timing corrections. Small changes, but they add up. My goal there is to restore balance—not just push for pregnancy as an outcome but build a healthy foundation for it. On the gynecology side, I also help women with delayed cycles, hormone flucuations, pain during periods, and fatigue linked to imbalance. Again, it’s all about rhythm—once the system starts flowing in sync again, healing feels more natural and less forced. Apart from reproductive work, I do focus a lot on diabetes and gut disorders. These two are honestly more connected than most people realise. I use a combo of Ayurvedic meds, gut-cleansing therapies, and realistic diet changes (no super extreme rules) to reduce dependency on long-term meds and bring back energy, digestion, and better sugar control over time. I always start treatment with *prakriti-pariksha* and *vikriti-pariksha*. I also take time to explain things—what I’m doing, why I’m giving a certain formulation, and what to expect. I feel patients deserve to understand their healing too. My goal? Just this—to give care that actually fits *you*, and not just the diagnosis you came in with. And help you feel back in control of your body, naturally. Through Ayurveda that’s not just textbook-perfect but real, alive, and human.

I am into Ayurveda and Panchakarma full-time for the last 11+ years, and honestly, it still feels like there’s more to learn with every case. Most of my work revolves around using *Panchakarma*—not just as some seasonal cleanse but as a proper therapeutic tool for real conditions like metabolic issues, skin problems, spine stiffness, stress, joint pain... the list goes on. I don’t use one-size-fits-all plans. Never did. I build protocols after understanding *prakriti* and *vikriti* clearly, coz what suits one body might totally mess up another. I work with all 5 major *Shodhana* procedures—*Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya,* and *Raktamokshana*. And I plan them based on classical text references plus real-world clinical need. Some patients come thinking they need panchakarma immediately, but they don’t. Some avoid it even when it’s the *only* thing that could help. So part of my job is actually explaining the *why* behind the treatment, not just giving it. What I’ve noticed over the years is people carry disease in layers. Physical yes—but also emotional load, diet errors, missed sleep, all piled up slowly. And that’s where this whole system works so well. Because Panchakarma doesn't just clear the body—it resets patterns. I usually guide patients not just through therapy, but also what happens after. Food discipline, herbal support, timing, seasonal routines... it's all part of the bigger picture. A big part of my practice is also just listening properly—sometimes someone’s real issue isn’t the thing they first say. So whether I’m treating IBS, urticaria, fatigue, high stress or even just helping someone detox safely—I always try to go back to basics: What’s their fire doing (Agni)? What dosha’s aggravated? Are they *ready* for deep cleansing or do we start lighter? For me, the goal is never quick fix—it’s to get people back to a state where they’re not managing symptoms daily, but actually feeling balanced again. And that’s the part I love most about this work. When someone says they finally feel like *themself* again.

I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.
