Hello, thank you for trusting and reaching out this platform with your wife’s health concern

I can imagine how overwhelming and painful the situation must have been recently with your faced

Sudden kidney stone pain, especially when it trades from the back to the urinary track can be extremely distressing, I truly empathise with what your wife is going through, especially considering her previous history, like blood pressure, romantic art, disease, diabetes, and even history of psoriasis, each of these conditions as its own complications and when combined with renal stone pain, the treatment plan has to be deep, personalised, and very careful to be seen

Let me break this down and guide you from an Ayurvedic perspective

Kidney stones are described as ASHMARI in Ayurveda. It is one of the eight most difficult diseases to treat. ( Ashta Mahanada) Here the vata pitta and kapha doshas have become imbalanced and mixed with urine and waste material materials, gradually crystallising into stones From what you have described The 13 mm stone in the kidney likely represents kapha. Vata dominant Ashmari stable, but capable of causing pain if disturbed. The 7 mm stone in the broken fragment is the cause of acute pain known in Ayurveda as SEEVAN VEDANA kind of pain, when travel through the narrow urinary channels The presence of blood in urine, although not visible shows trauma in the urinary track, which is also a sign of PITTA aggravation

Your wife’s chronic illness like romantic Car disease, hypertension and diabetes means that her immunity and vitality and vitality is already compromised ,the added burden of psoriasis further reflects deep PITTA and RAKTA imbalance

So the treatment mainly depends upon three things What we had to do

Help dislodge the 7MM stone, naturally and safely Work on breaking and shrinking the 13 MM stone gradually Strengthen urinary track channels, reduce information, protect kidneys, and prevent recurrence All without disturbing her heart BP under sugar levels

So add with the treatment, be consider here are, should be taken internally

Varunadi kwath or Varuna Ghan vati — it is excellent for breaking kidney stones, and reducing inflammation It helps in flushing out, smaller stones If you are taking in for then 1 teaspoon in 400 ML water, boil up to hundred ML filter and drink twice daily and emptied stomach If taking tablet form, then one tablet to be taken twice daily after food with warm water

Punarnava mandoora/ Punarnava Saba—

It reduces swelling, supports kidney health, and it is safe in case of rheumatic, heart, disease, and diabetes If tablet form take twice daily after food with warm water If in Asava form then take 4 teaspoon with equal quantity of water twice daily after food Gokshuradi guggulu- Is useful in case of urinary tract, cleansing and healing micro injuries due to stone movement It should be taken twice daily after food with warm water Chandraprabha vati— It works on urinary track, health balances, bless sugar and support kidneys, but while taking this medicine, you have to monitor your blood pressure and sometimes it may increase to some people Must be taken twice daily after food with warm water

Patrachatta juice— This can be either taken in fresh juice or in a tablet, for it is one of the traditional remedy to help disintegrated kidney stones. If fresh form take twice daily diluted in water If tablet form take twice daily after food with warm water

Kulattha yusha (horse gram soup)

This is traditional soup, helps breakdown stone formation and promotes urinary flow

pain management during severe attack—

If pain is sudden, you can try the Dashamoola kwatha-1 teaspoon in 400 ML water. Boil until treatment remains under ML filter and drink. It is used as a anti-inflammatory support.

Warm castor oil massage on the lower back and the abdomen can be done. Block wise. It helps to ease the spasm.

You can mix GOKSHURA along with Shatavari powder with warm water This provides soothing relief to the urinary tract

Apply warm water bag to lower abdomen and back, which will relieve the sudden and Xaviour

If in case of unbearable pain, it’s advisable not to delay. Please visit nearby hospital or urologist immediately. Routine, how the diet and lifestyle should be—

Your wife must follow a diet that balance is both PITTA and VATA DOSHAS should support kidney function and doesn’t burden the heart Avoid tomatoes, spinach, brinjal, excessive diary, red meat, salty, packaged, food, and very sore food

She can include barley, water, coconut water take coconut water if our sugar is under control even she can take coria underwater horse gram soup soup ash gourd juice Drink warm water with a pinch of cumin and coriander powder frequently Safety precautions to be taken in pre-existing conditions

Avoid heavy eating herbs like guggulu in high doses Monitor her BP and sugar every three days Endure hydration without excessive fluid overload, especially due to her cardiac condition Used diabetic friendly and Cardio safe her only

It’s better to avoid Panchkarma unless fully supervised by nearby Ayurvedic practitioner in person due to her Heart condition risk Interestingly, psoriasis and kidney stones can have a subtle connection through aggravated. PITTA and RAKTA doshas, long-term inflammation and metabolic disturbances can pre-dispose the body to both conditions. We should also start rakta pacifying remedies slowly after the stone episodes, stabilisers So she can follow the above, said remedies with diet changes if he’s stable, so I am going to advise to seek emergency help If she is in very intense back or abdominal pain If she’s having nausea or vomiting, that doesn’t subside If blood is present in urine, if the urine is passing, is reddish in colour If our urine output is decreased

Then please do not wait for the natural method. Go to the hospital immediately or consult the urologist.

The stress of multiple health issues can impact telling encourage her to do gentle pranayama, meditation, and listening to music, and stay mentally supported Psoriasis diabetes and kidney issues, all will worse with stress

Ashok G, you are doing the writing by seeking holistic care for your wife Ayurveda been done gently and mindfully can bring great relief without interfering with her ongoing alopathi treatment. Please understand that stone expulsion, especially with heart and Sugar issues must be gradual and closely monitored.

But the thing is, he treats from its root cause, so it may take some time to show its actual result

If you wish I can design a customised herbal protocol with dose and timings, depending upon the exact sugar and BP levels, feel free to share her recent lab reports and current medicine Wishing her comfort, strength and complete healing, may soon her smallest stone comes out smoothly, and the larger one dissolves without any difficulty

13mm stone in kidney is relatively large and is difficult to pass through the tract by itself and also the 7mm stone in the passage also considered as large when compared to the ureter (the urine pipe) So here the possibility is to make the stones in to smaller sizes so that it can pass through the urine

Since here size is little bigger may be we could try Ayurvedic internal medicines for around 2-3weeks if you are getting symptomatic relief we will continue the medication and then again after one month please do take a USG scan focusing Kidneys

We can’t have a lot of medication since she is already having for BP and Rheumatic heart disease

1.Veeratharadi kashayam 10ml + 30ml lukewarm water twice daily before food 2.Chandraprabha gulika 2-0-2 after food 3.Gokshuradi guggulu 1-0-1after food 4.Renalka syrup- 10ml twice /(SOS)

Hello, thank you for trusting and reaching out this platform with your wife’s health concern

I can imagine how overwhelming and painful the situation must have been on 19th May, sudden kidney stone pain, especially when it radiates from the back to the urinary track can be extremely distressing, I truly am sateesh with what your wife is going through, especially considering our pre-existing health conditions like blood pressure, rheumatic, heart, disease, diabetes, and no sorry as each of these conditions as its own complexity and when combined with renal stone paint, the treatment plan has to be deeply personalised and very careful

Let me break this down and guide you from an Ayurvedic perspective.

Kidney stones are described as “Ashmari” in Ayurveda. It is one of the eight most difficult diseases to treat (Ashta Mahagada). Here, the Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas become imbalanced and mix with urine (Mutra) and waste materials, gradually crystallizing into stones. You have mentioned that the • The 13 mm stone in the kidney likely represents a Kapha-Vata dominant Ashmari, stable but capable of causing pain if disturbed. • The 7 mm stone in the ureter, the broken fragment, is the cause of acute pain, known in Ayurveda as “Seevan Vedana” — a pricking, tearing type of pain caused when stones travel through the narrow urinary channels.

The presence of Rakta (blood) in urine, although not visible, shows trauma in the urinary tract, which is also a sign of Pitta aggravation.

Your wife’s chronic illnesses like RHD, hypertension, and diabetes mean that her Ojas (immunity and vitality) is already compromised. The added burden of psoriasis further reflects deep Pitta and Rakta imbalance.

So the treatment must do three things: 1. Help dislodge the 7 mm stone naturally and safely. 2. Work on breaking and shrinking the 13 mm stone gradually. 3. Strengthen urinary tract channels, reduce inflammation, protect kidneys, and prevent recurrence — all without disturbing her heart, BP, or sugar levels.

Ayurvedic Treatment Plan

1. Herbal Medicines (Internally) • Varunadi Kwath or Varuna Ghan Vati – Excellent for breaking kidney stones and reducing inflammation. Helps in flushing out smaller stones. • Punarnava Mandoor / Punarnavasavam – Reduces swelling, supports kidney health, and is safe in RHD and diabetes. • Gokshuradi Guggulu – Useful for urinary tract cleansing and healing micro-injuries due to stone movement. • Chandraprabha Vati – Works on urinary tract health, balances blood sugar, and supports kidneys. (But monitor BP as it can mildly increase it in some). • Patharchatta Juice (Bryophyllum pinnatum) – Fresh juice or tablets. This is a traditional remedy to help disintegrate kidney stones. • Kulattha Yusha (Horse gram soup) – This traditional soup helps break down stone formation and promotes urinary flow.

2. Pain Management (During Severe Attacks)

If pain suddenly returns: • Dashamoola Kwatha (if available) can be used for anti-inflammatory support. • Warm castor oil massage on the lower back and abdomen (clockwise) helps ease spasms. • Mix Gokshura + Shatavari powder with lukewarm water – this provides soothing relief to the urinary tract. • Apply warm water bag to lower abdomen and back to relieve pain. • In case of unbearable pain, do not delay; use prescribed painkillers under medical guidance and visit the hospital if needed.

🍲 Diet and Lifestyle Advice

Your wife must follow a diet that balances Pitta and Vata, supports kidney function, and doesn’t burden the heart. • Avoid: Tomato, spinach, brinjal, excessive dairy, red meat, salty packaged foods, and very sour foods. • Include: Barley water, coconut water (if sugar is under control), coriander water, bottle gourd soup, horse gram, ash gourd juice. • Drink warm water with a pinch of cumin and coriander frequently.

Safety in Pre-existing Conditions

Considering her RHD and diabetes, we must: • Avoid heavy, heating herbs like Guggulu in high doses. • Monitor her BP and sugar every 3–4 days. • Ensure hydration without excessive fluid overload — especially due to her cardiac condition. • Use diabetic-friendly and cardio-safe herbs only.

Also, avoid Panchakarma (detox treatments) unless fully supervised by an Ayurvedic physician in person, due to heart condition risk.

Psoriasis and Kidney Stone Link

Interestingly, psoriasis and kidney stones can have a subtle connection through aggravated Pitta and Rakta doshas. Long-term inflammation and metabolic disturbances can predispose the body to both conditions. We should also start Rakta-pacifying remedies slowly after the stone episode stabilizes.

When to Seek Emergency Help

If she experiences: • Intense back or abdominal pain • Nausea/vomiting that doesn’t subside • Visible blood in urine • Sudden drop in urine output

Please do not wait for natural methods — go to the hospital immediately.

Emotional and Mental Health Support

The stress of multiple health issues can impact healing. Encourage her to do gentle breathing (Anulom Vilom), listen to calming music, and stay mentally supported. Psoriasis, diabetes, and kidney issues all worsen with stress.

Ashok ji, you’re doing the right thing by seeking holistic care for your wife. Ayurveda, when done gently and mindfully, can bring great relief without interfering with her ongoing allopathic treatment. Please understand that stone expulsion, especially with heart and sugar issues, must be gradual and closely monitored.

But the thing is, it treats from its root cause, so it may take some time to show its actual result

If you wish I can design a customized herbal protocol with dosage and timings, depending on the exact sugar and BP levels. Feel free to share her recent lab reports and current medicines.

Wishing her comfort strength and complete healing Mary soon for the smaller stone smoothly, and begin to dissolve the larger one gently complete healing.

For the situation with the kidney stones your wife is experiencing, it is crucial first to address any immediate pain she may feel. While you should definitely consult a medical professional for acute pain and follow their guidance, Ayurveda can offer supportive strategies alongside conventional treatment. The presence of larger stones—especially the 13mm stone—often requires medical intervention, such as surgical removal or lithotripsy, which breaks stones into smaller pieces that can pass easier.

For managing the 7mm stone naturally, Ayurveda emphasizes balancing the Vata and Pitta doshas, which are often aggravated in such conditions. Kidney stones are frequently linked to excess of these doshas leading to crystallization in the urinary tract.

1. Hydration: Encourage your wife to drink plenty of water through the day. This helps in flushing out the urinary tract and may assist in passing smaller stones. Opt for warm water, which is easier on digestion and helps maintain Agni (digestive fire).

2. Ayurvedic Herbs: Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris) and Pashanabheda (Bergenia ligulata) are traditionally used for urinary stones. You can find them in formulations like “Cystone” or consult an Ayurvedic practitioner to tailor a specific dosage.

3. Dietary Adjustments: Reducing foods high in oxalate—such as spinach, nuts, and beetroot—might be beneficial. Prefer a diet that’s light and easy to digest, avoiding spicy and oily foods which may worsen Pitta imbalance.

4. Pain Management: Should pain occur, applying heat locally with a warm water bottle may provide relief. Though in significant pain cases, medical attention is necessary.

5. Lifestyle Changes: Stress management through yoga and gentle exercise encourages balance of Vata and Pitta. Practices like Anulom Vilom (breathing exercises) are good to calm the body.

Given her existing conditions—diabetes, BP, and rheumatic heart disease—it’s essential to approach Ayurvedic treatments cautiously and coordinate with her existing medical regimen. Before starting any new herbal supplements or making drastic diet changes, it’s advisable to consult her healthcare provider. Remember, safety first; it’s vital not to replace critical medical care, especially in emergencies, with solely alternative treatments without consultation.

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

I am a BAMS graduate and currently running my own clinic, where I see patients on a regular basis and try to give them honest, practical care. My daily work involves understanding different health concerns, listening properly to what the patient is going through, and then planning treatment in a way that actually fits their routine. I believe treatment should not feel confusing or rushed, and sometimes even small changes make a big difference. Running my own clinic has taught me a lot about responsibility and consistency. Some days are busy, some are slow, but every patient brings a different challenge and learning. I focus mainly on Ayurvedic treatment methods, lifestyle correction and long-term health balance, rather than quick fixes. There are times when progress takes longer, but I stay patient and keep working with the person step by step. I try to keep my approach simple, practical and honest. For me, real success is when a patient feels better in daily life, sleeps better, eats better and slowly regains balance. That is what keeps me going and improving every day.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

Dr. Suraj Amber
I am practicing Ayurveda for about 8 years now, feels strange saying that because honestly the learning never stops. My work is all about finding balance in the body, not in some abstract way, but literally working with each person’s unique prakriti and the vikriti they’re dealing with at that moment. I follow the classical principles — herbal formulations, Panchakarma therapies, diet corrections, lifestyle tweaks — but nothing is “one size fits all”. Each treatment plan is shaped by the person infront of me, their health history, and the small details you only catch when you really listen. Over time I’ve worked with people dealing with digestion troubles, joint pains, hormonal shifts, stress-related health dips, and even stubborn chronic stuff that didn’t respond much to other methods. My approach is to go for the root cause first, because treating just the symptoms feels like putting tape over a crack... it hides it for a while but doesn’t fix it. That’s also why I focus on prevention — if you stop the imbalance before it grows, you save a lot of pain later. I keep my learning alive by reading classical Ayurvedic texts and joining continuing education whenever I can fit it in (sometimes late nights with too much chai). And I try to pass that clarity on to patients, explaining why a certain herb or therapy is chosen, what changes they might notice, and how they can keep supporting themselves after treatment ends. For me, this is more than just work. It’s a way of living… making choices every day that keep the mind, body, and emotions in some kind of harmony. My goal is still the same as day one — offer care that’s authentic, safe, and actually works for the long run, while making sure the person feels heard and understood through the whole process.

Dr. Rajan soni
I am working in Ayurveda field from some time now, started out as a general physician at Chauhan Ayurveda Hospital in Noida. That place taught me a lot—how to handle different types of patients in OPD, those daily cases like fever, digestion issues, body pain... but also chronic stuff which keeps coming back. After that I moved to Instant Aushadhalya—an online Ayurveda hospital setup. Whole different space. Consultations online ain’t easy at first—no pulse reading, no direct Nadi check—but you learn to ask the right things, look at patient’s tone, habit patterns, timing of symptoms... and yeah it actually works, sometimes even better than in person. Right now I’m working as an Ayurveda consultant at Digvijayam Clinic where I’m focusing more on individualised care. Most ppl come here with stress-related problems, digestion issues, joint pain, that kind of mix. I go by classic diagnosis principles like prakriti analysis, dosha imbalance and all, but also mix in what I learned from modern side—like understanding their lifestyle triggers, screen time, sleep cycles, food gaps n stress patterns. I don’t rush into panchakarma or heavy medicines unless it’s needed... prefer starting with simple herbs, diet change, basic daily routine correction. If things demand, then I go stepwise into Shodhan therapies. My goal is to not just “treat” but to help ppl know what’s happening in their body and why its reacting like that. That awareness kinda becomes half the cure already. Not everything is perfect. Sometimes ppl don’t follow what you say, sometimes results are slow, and yeah that gets to you. But this path feels honest. It’s slow, grounded, and meaningful.

Dr. Mohit Kakkar
I am a BAMS-qualified Ayurvedic physician from Jalandhar, Punjab, and I work with a deep interest in blending classical Ayurvedic wisdom with modern telemedicine care. My practice is largely consultation based, reaching patients across the country through online platforms, which still feels new sometimes but works well. Till now I have served more than 500 patients through teleconsultations, mostly chronic cases where consistency really matters more than quick fixes. I focus on understanding each patient through dosha assessment, mainly balancing Vata, Pitta, Kapha using individualized treatment plans and nutrition guidance. Around 85% symptom relief has been seen in chronic conditions, though outcomes vary and need patience. I rely on personalised diet, daily routine correction, and classical Ayurvedic medicines. Some days are challenging, but seeing people feel lighter, sleep better, or regain control over health keeps me going. My aim stays simple,, long term wellness through practical Ayurveda, not rushed solutions.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.
