I’m an Ayurvedic practitioner with a deep passion for natural healing and holistic wellness. I’ve focused on helping people manage issues related to bones and joints, women’s health, children’s well-being, and stress—using the time-tested wisdom of Ayurveda. Whether it’s joint pain, menstrual problems, pregnancy support, childhood illnesses, or simply feeling overwhelmed by stress, I believe that Ayurveda offers gentle yet powerful solutions. I use a mix of herbal remedies, therapies like Panchakarma, diet guidance, and lifestyle adjustments to support healing from the inside out. For me, it's all about finding balance—physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Namaste. Thank you for sharing your concern. Hypothyroidism is increasingly common, and while allopathic medicines help manage TSH levels, Ayurveda offers a root-cause approach to support your thyroid function naturally.

In Ayurveda, hypothyroidism is often understood as a Kapha-Vata imbalance affecting Agni (digestive fire) and Rasa-Rakta Dhatus, leading to sluggish metabolism and hormonal irregularities.
Diet -warm, light, and easily digestible foods.
Avoid cold, heavy, processed foods and dairy, soy, refined sugar, and gluten if sensitivity is suspected.
Include iodine-rich natural foods like seaweed (if suitable), rock salt (sendha namak), and drumstick leaves.
Use spices like turmeric, ginger, cumin,
 and black pepper to stimulate metabolism.
Wake up early and establish a Dinacharya (daily routine).
Practice mild exercise or yoga daily to stimulate circulation and thyroid function (e.g., Surya Namaskar, Matsyasana, Sarvangasana).
	Manage stress with pranayama and meditation, as chronic stress worsens thyroid function.
Kanchanar guggulu-
Ashwagandha capsule-
1 tab twice daily after food with warm water
