Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I’m Dr. Hemanshu, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic Surgery), with a focused interest in para-surgical interventions such as Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma. My academic and clinical journey is rooted in classical Ayurvedic surgical wisdom, complemented by a modern understanding of patient care and evidence-based approaches. With hands-on training and experience in managing chronic pain conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other ano-rectal conditions, I provide treatments that emphasize both relief and long-term wellness. I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

HELLO PREET,

At the age of 23, female heigh growth through natural or medical means becomes very limited, because MEDICAL FACTS -growth plates in bones close after puberty, typically between ages 16-18 in females. -after closure, growth hormone therapy is ineffective for increasing height unless- -there was documented GH deficiency before puberty-which would usually have been treated earlier -even then , GH therapy doesn’t help after plate closure

REALISTIC OPTIONS AT AGE 23

1)POSTURE CORRECTION AND SPINAL ALIGNMENT helps you look taller by 1-2 cm

YOGA ASANA-tadasana, bhujangasana, chakrasana, paschimottanasana -STRETCHING- morning and evening spinal stretches -massage therapy+ hot water- helps improve spinal flexibility but won’t increase bone length.

2)NUTRITIONAL OPTIMIZATION -wont make you taller but helps you stay lean, strong, and feel confident -vit d , calcium, and protein rich foods -ashwagandha+shatavari churna- 1tsp each with warm milk may help improve strength and posture not height.

3)HEEL LIFE AND CONFIDENCE BOOST -insoles or minor orthotic lifts(adds 1-2 cm) -work on confidence, personality, communication, and fitness-these often matter more than height in adult life.

WHHY GH THERAPY IS NOT ADVISED:- -GH injections are expensive, risky(can cause joint pain, diabetes, cancer risk) and not approved for cosmetic height gain in adults -In india, its only prescribed under endocrinologist supervision for very specific deficiencies or disorders

AYURVEDIC SUPPORT FOR POSTURE, FLEXIBILITY, HORMONAL BALANCE -Oil massage with bala taila -nasya therapy -ashwagandha, shatavariq, gokshudra- Churna daily

do follow

thank you

Hello Preet,

please understand the physiology of human where girls can grow till 20 yrs. 14 to 17 yrs will be peak maximum growth phase. very few of them will grow in their early 20’s. So i see you are 23yr old now there is 5% chances of growth at this particular phase of your life.

Adv-

physical activities such as swimming, basket ball, badminton, tennis, etc kind of sports might help to an extent but not guarantied that youll grow tall. even if you do, you might grow 2 inches or 3 maximum.

no oral medications can help with this regard. Instead, you can focus on muscle strength training, bone strengthing, etc.

HELLO PREET,

*CAN YOU GRWO TALLER AT 23?- MEDICAL AND BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE

BONE GROWTH BASICS- -HEIGHT INCREASES DURING CHILDHOOD AND ADOLESCENCE DUE TO LONG BONE(FEMUR,TIBIA,HUMERUS) GROWING AT THEIR EPIPHYSEAL(GROWTH) PLATES. -THESE GROWTH PLATES ARE MADE OF CARTILAGE,ALLOWING BONES TO ELONGATE. -AFTER PUBERTY, SEX HORMONES LIKE ESTROGEN CAUSE EPIPHYSEAL FUSION-BONE HARDENS AND GROWTH STOPS PERMENENTLY.

WHEN DOES GROWTH STOPS? -FOR MOST FEMALES- GROWTH STOOPS BETWEEN 16-18 YEARS(SOMETIMES UP TO 20 IF PUBERTY IS DELAYED) -AFTER FUSION,NO NATURAL OR ARTIFICIAL METHOD CAN INCREASE BONE HEALTH.

#TRUTH ABOUT GROWTH HORMONE(GH)THERAPY AT 23 -GH IS A PEPTIDE HORMNONE FROM THE PITUTARY GLAND. -IN CHILDREN WITH GH DEFICIENCY,IT CAN STIMULATE HEIGHT GROWTH -IN CHILDREN WITH GH DEFICIENCY, IT CAN. STIMULATE HEIGHT GROWTH -GH IS ONLY EFFECTIVE BEFORE EPIPHYSEAL FUSION.

GH THERAPY AAFTER 23:- -WORKS FOR=TISSUE REPAIR,MUSCLE GAIN,ANTI-AGING(IN RARE CONDITIONS) -DOES’NT WIORK FOR= INCREASING HEIGHT(AS EPIPHYSEAL PLATES ARE FUSED) -SIDE EFFECTS= INSULIN RESISTANCE, JOINT PAIN, ORGAN ENLARGEMENT, ACROMEGALY -COST=30,000-80,000/MONTH OR MORE -LEGAL STATUS = BANNED FOR COSMETIC USE IN INDIA WITHOUR MEDICAL INDICATION.

SO GH THERAPY IS NOT ONLY USELESS FOR HEIGHT AT YOUR AGE, BUT ALSO DANGEROUS,EXPENSIVE, AND UNETHICAL WHEN USED WITHOUT PROPER MEDICAL NEED

#AYURVEDICALLY -AYURVEDA DOES’NT SEE HEIGHT AS “FIXED”, IT DEPENDS ON- -PRAKRITI(CONSTITUTION)-VATA INDIVIDUALS ARE THIN AND TALL, KAPHA MAY BE SHORTER BUT STRONGER -ASTHI DHATU(BONE TISSUE)- GOVERNED BY DIGESTIVE FIRE AND PROPER NUTRITION. -SAMHANANA(BODY COMPACTNESS)- DENSE BONES AND MUSCLES DEVELOP WITH GOOD DIET, OJAS AND SLEEP.

EVEN AFTER 23, YOU CAN OPTIMIZE YOUR ASTHI AND MAMSA DHATU TO IMPROVE POSTURE, STRENGTH,ENERGY AND VISUAL HEIGHT.

#WHAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE AT 23-LETS SEE THIS YOU CAN VISIBLY GAIN 1-2 INCHES THROUGH

*POSTURAL CORRECTION=LENGTHENS SPINE, MAKES YOU STAND TALL *SPINAL DECOMPRESSION(YOGA,MASSAGE)= IMPROVES INTERVERTEBRAL SPACING *CORE STRENGTHENING AND MUSCLE TONE= ENHANCES UPRIGHT FRAME *AYURVEDIC RASAYANA AND HERBS= SUPPORTS BONE TISSUE REJUVINATION *NUTRITION+REST= REVITALIZES BODY ND PROMOTES HEALTHY STRUCTURE.

Dear Preet First, I want to know how much is your weight and height and accordingly, we can decide

But usually at the age of 23 bone growth plates that is epiphysis Will fuse so growth hormone therapy is not likely to increase height now. Also, growth hormone therapy carries risk risks and must be done under strict medical care only if there is Pravin deficiency.

According to ayurvedic point of view, height is influenced by prakriti, that is constitution of the Patient dhatu bhala and childhood nourishment, but still posture, muscle tone, and spinal alignment can improve with certain therapies

You can try Ashwagandha churna + Shatavari churna- 1/4 th teaspoon with warm milk once daily, preferably at night Do Surya Namaskar , thadasana bhujangasana

Take balance that with calcium protein

This won’t increase bone length, but my improve overall frame, flexibility, and confidence

Growth hormone therapy at the age of 23 is generally not recommended for increasing height. You see, by this age, most individuals have completed their growth during adolescence, and the growth plates in the bones usually close. This means that height increase from medical intervention is typically not achievable. It’s always critical to discuss with a qualified healthcare provider before considering such treatments, as they can have significant side effects.

As for alternative methods within Ayurveda, there are holistic approaches that focus on overall well-being that might support your posture and energy levels. Practices in yoga, for instance, have been known to help improve posture, potentially giving an illusion of increased height. Engaging in regular yoga, particularly poses that involve stretching and alignment like Tadasana (Mountain Pose), Trikonasana (Triangle Pose), and Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) can be beneficial.

Diet and lifestyle modification according to Ayurvedic principles can also support overall health. Focusing on a balanced diet that pacifies your dominant dosha and improves your digestive fire (Agni) is essential. Nourishing foods such as almonds, sesame seeds, dairy, and leafy greens are good to incorporate. Ensure that you’re consuming adequate vitamin D and calcium through your diet to maintain bone strength.

Keep a consistent routine of physical activities including swimming or cycling that engage your whole body and may enhance posture. Good sleep is also essential, as it supports regeneration and health. Between 6 and 8 hours of quality sleep is usually recommended.

Another avenue is Ayurvedic massage therapy. Abhyanga, a warm oil massage, can be rejuvenating, and Shirodhara can reduce stress, promoting better quality sleep.

Remember, it’s important to have realistic expectations, and though actual height increase isn’t feasible, these approaches may improve your overall health and potentially how you feel within your body. It’s advisable to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized plan that respects your unique constitution and current health status.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

Dr. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
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.

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.

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. 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.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

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. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Kirankumari Rathod
I am someone who kinda grew into Panchakarma without planning it much at first... just knew I wanted to understand the deeper layers of Ayurveda, not just the surface stuff. I did both my graduation and post-grad from Govt. Ayurveda Medical College & Hospital in Bangalore — honestly that place shaped a lot of how I think about healing, especially long-term healing. After my PG, I started working right away as an Assistant Professor & consultant in the Panchakarma dept at a private Ayurveda college. Teaching kinda made me realise how much we ourselves learn by explaining things to others... and watching patients go through their detox journeys—real raw healing—was where I got hooked. Now, with around 6 years of clinical exp in Panchakarma practice, I'm working as an Associate Professor, still in the same dept., still learning, still teaching. I focus a lot on individualised protocols—Ayurveda isn't one-size-fits-all and honestly, that’s what makes it tricky but also beautiful. Right now I’m also doing my PhD, it’s on female infertility—a topic I feel not just academically drawn to but personally invested in, cause I see how complex and layered it gets for many women. Managing that along with academics and patient care isn’t super easy, I won’t lie, but it kinda fuels each other. The classroom work helps my clinical thinking, and my clinical work makes me question things in research more sharply. There's a lot I still wanna explore—especially in how we explain Panchakarma better to newer patients. Many people still think it's just oil massage or some spa thing but the depth is wayyy beyond that. I guess I keep hoping to make that clarity come through—whether it’s in class or during a consult or even during a quick OPD chat.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?
