On a echo test, it is found that the LVH is enlarged. Please guide me.

Dr. Manjula
I am a dedicated Ayurveda practitioner with a deep-rooted passion for restoring health through traditional Ayurvedic principles. My clinical approach revolves around understanding the unique constitution (Prakruti) and current imbalance (Vikruti) of each individual. I conduct comprehensive consultations that include Prakruti-Vikruti Pareeksha, tongue examination, and other Ayurvedic diagnostic tools to identify the underlying causes of disease, rather than just addressing symptoms. My primary focus is on balancing the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—through individualized treatment plans that include herbal medicines, therapeutic diets, and lifestyle modifications. I believe that healing begins with alignment, and I work closely with my patients to bring the body, mind, and spirit into harmony using personalized, constitution-based interventions. Whether managing chronic conditions or guiding preventive health, I aim to empower patients through Ayurvedic wisdom, offering not just relief but a sustainable path to well-being. My practice is rooted in authenticity, guided by classical Ayurvedic texts and a strong commitment to ethical, patient-centered care. I take pride in helping people achieve long-term health outcomes by integrating ancient knowledge with a modern, practical approach. Through continuous learning and close attention to every detail in diagnosis and treatment, I strive to deliver meaningful, natural, and effective results for all my patients.

Namaste, Umesh ji

Your BP fluctuation despite allopathy, homeopathy and Mukta vati indicates deeper metabolic resistance and cardiovascular strain LVH on echo shows heart is under pressure You can start on Sarpagandha ghanvati one tablet at night Arjuna aristha-4 teaspoon with equal quantity of water twice day after food Punarnavadi guggulu- Medohara vati -tablet, twice daily after food with warm water

This helps in reducing pressure supporting heart function, and improving metabolism Reduce salt intak avoid cold drinks Do walking daily at least 30 minutes, brisk walk is will be very much beneficial Have your dinner before 8 PM Do regular Pranayam meditation and yoga Regular follow-up is required

NAMASTE UMESH JI,

MAIN CONCERN -chronic hypertension- poorly controlled even with allopathy+homeopathy+ayurveda(mukta vati). bp still shoots up to 165/110 -LVH on echocardiogram- igné of prolonged uncontrolled BP. -Difficulty in weight loss despite trying- no change even after attemtps -Current age- 43 years

CLINICAL INTERPRETATION -LVH= heart is under pressure for a long time. it’s the body’s response to chronic high BP. -Persistent Bp elevation indicates resistance or inadequate therapy, likely due to -vyana vata+rasa-rakta dusti -metabolic dysfunction -low digestive fire and toxin obstructing channels -stress, irregular sleep, dietary errors, or kapha-meda dominance

#AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN Formulated to -reduce Bp -improve cardiac tone -clear toxin -correct metabolism and aid in weight loss

MORNING(EMPTY STOMACH) -Sarpagandha vati- 1 tab -punarnavadi kashayam- 15ml + lukewarm water -Arogyavardhini veti- 1 tab =to reduce cholesterol, clear liver, and improve digestive fire

AFTERNOON(AFTER LUNCH) -Meda gaj kesari ras- 1 tab -triphala guggulu- 1 tab -Ashwagandha churna- 1 tsp with Luke warm milk/water

EVENING(5PM) -Mukta vati- 1 tab -Brahmi vati(with gold)- 1 tab

NIGHT(POST DINNER) -Punarnavadi guggulu- 1 tab -Dashmoola haritaki avaleha- 1 tsp =to reduce fluid retention, improve metabolism

DIET PLAN strict diet for weight loss, bp control, and toxin removal

MORNING(7-9AM)= warm jeera ajwain water+ light among soup or methi thepla(less or no salt)

BREAKFAST= 1 fruit(papaya/apple) +green tea

LUNCH(12-1 PM)= steamed veggies, millet roti(bajra/ragi), dal, less salt , no curd

4 PM= warm water+4 almonds or methi water

DINNER(6-7 PM)= light khichdi with turmeric, ajwain, hing or soup+ cooked lauki/palak

AFTER DINNER= dashmoola haritaki avaleha or Triphala tea

STRICT AVOID -salt after sunset -white rice, sugar, bakery food, curd -potato,fried food, pickles -sitting/lying after meals -overeating

LIFESTYLE -sleep by 10 PM (no screen post 9:30PM) -15-20 min brisk walk morning+evening -early dinner by 7pm -reduce stress- do bhramari pranayam, anulom-vilom

-check bp daily at 7 am and 7 pm and maintain log -watch for signs of dizziness, fatigue, swelling -repeat echo+ECG+ lipid profile every 6 months

-Don’t suddenly stop allopathic meds- taper only after consistent 2-3 months of bp stability under supervision -ayurvedic medicines work best with diet/lifestyle regulation

Do follow

Hope this might be helpful

Thank you

HELLO UMESH,

-CHRONIC HYPERTENSION=uncontrolled , spikes to 165/110 -LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY(LVH)= early heart muscle thickening due to long-standing high bp -OBESITY/WEIGHT GAIN= not reducing despite effort->suggest metabolic inefficiency -MUKTA VATI not working->suggests deeper vata+kapha+rasa/rakta dhatu imbalance

#AYURVEDIC PATHOPHYSIOLOGY

-HIGH BP= raktagata vata dusti, vyana vata dusti, hridaya avasthanam -LVH= hridaya marma kshetra affected due to chronic rakta-vata imbalance=increased heart muscle tone -WEIGHT GAIN= increased kapha, meda, low digestive fire , toxin formation -BP SPIKES= triggers-stress, salt,poor sleep, irregular meals->stimulates sympathetic overdrive + vata aggravation

#WHY MUKTA VATI ALONE DID NOT WORK -NO EFFECT ON BP= mukta vati(2-0-2) dose may not be enough for your Prakriti, no kapha or meda correction -NO WEIGHT LOSS= weight gain is due to meda dhatu dusti+agnimandya, needs digestive corrective+fat metabolism booster, not just bp control -LVH NOT ADDRESSED= Mukta vati has no hridaya rasayana or muscle rejuvenator effect like ARJUNA OR PRABHAKAR VATI

#FULL AYURVEDIC PROTOCOL(SAFE WITH ALLOPATHY)

MORNING ROUTINE(6:30-10 AM)

1)warm jeera or lemon water(2 glasses)= kapha melting, detox, bp calming

2)Lauki juice(100 ml) with 1 pinch of cinnamon and 2 tulsi=reduces bp , meda and heat

3)ARJUNA KSHEER PAK- 50 ml milk+ 50 ml water +3 gm Arjuna bark boiled OR 2 ARJUNA CAPSULES= strengthens LV, natural beta-blocker

4)PRABHAKAR VATI- 1 tab with warm water= cardiac tonic for bp+LVH

5)MUKTA PISHTI+ JAHAR MOHRA PISTI- 125 mg each with honey= bp spike control, calms pitta

#BEFORE MEALS(BEFORE LUNCH AND DINNER)

1)MEDOHAR GUGGULU- 1 tab 30 mins before food= fat burning, digestive enhancement

2)TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp in warm water at night= metabolism correction , gut support

#AFTER MEALS

AFTER LUNCH= PUNANARNAVADI KASHYAM AGAIN- 15ml + water

AFTER DINNER= SARPAGANDHADI VATI- 1 tab= natural hypotensive

#DIET ADVISED

ALLOWED FOODS GRAINS- barley, bajra, jowar, old rice , red rice

VEGETABLES- lauki, karela, methi, drumstick, spinach, tinda(cookked/boiled)- no raw

FRUITS- amla, pomegranate, apple, guava, papaya

PROTEIN- moong dal, horse gram, buttermilk(thin, no salt)

10- 7 AM= eating window(intermittent fasting pattern)

5:00 PM= herbal tea/soup

7:00 PM= light dinner

8:00PM onwards= no screen time, early wind-down

10:00 PM= sleep(crucial for bp control )

WEIGHT LOSS BLOCK- WHY IT’S STUCK

CAUSE AND SOLUTION

KAPHA+ MEDA BLOCKAGE= medohar guggulu+fasting LOW METABOLISM= triphala, warm foods, no sugar TOXIN OVERLOAD= ama pachana with kashayas prescribed STRESS INDUCED WEIGHT= bhramari+ brahmi support(brhami vati 1 tab at bedtime) NO MUSCLE ACTIVITY= add slow strength yoga , planks, squats

#EMERGENCY AYURVEDIC SUPPORT FOR BP SPIKES

-160/110 spike with headache= Jahar mohra pishti(250mg) + Sarpagandha + Arjun ghrita

-PALPITATIONS OR CHEST HEAVINESS= Prabhakar vati 1 + brami ghriita

-WATER RETENSION= punarnavadi kashaya+ dashmoola kwath- 20 ml each

INTERGRATED MONITORING CHART

BP- daily at morning+night= goal should be below 130/90

WEIGHT= weekly(same day/time)= o.5-1kg/week loss

ECHO= once every 6-12 months= reversal of LVH

SLEP= 7-8 hours/night= consistent

SALT INTAKE= <4 GMS/DAY= strict

Understanding the complexities of high blood pressure (hypertension) and its root causes is where Ayurveda can offer some meaningful insights. Given that you’re on allopathy and homeopathy and still experiencing high BP, combined with an enlarged left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH), it’s essential to follow a holistic approach.

Firstly, acknowledging one’s Prakriti (constitution) and lifestyle patterns is crucial. Ayurveda views hypertension as a disturbance of the doshas. Typically, Pitta and Vata imbalances could be influencing your condition. Implementing a personalized regimen can aid in managing this effectively.

Dietary Adjustments: Begin with a Pitta-pacifying diet. Focus on consuming more cooling, hydrating foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and coconut water. Minimize spicy, salty, and acidic foods as they can aggravate Pitta. Incorporate whole grains like barley and oats, which can assist in weight management while balancing blood pressure.

Spices like turmeric and garlic are beneficial. Garlic, particularly, is known for its heart-health properties. Try one or two cloves of raw garlic on an empty stomach, chewing them thoroughly.

Lifestyle Modifications: In Ayurveda, Agni, or digestive fire, plays a significant role. Ensure that your diet supports and does not overload your digestion. Regular meals at set times can support Agni. Include daily exercise, such as brisk walking or yoga, tailored not strenuous but adequate to your capability.

Stress Management: Stress is a known factor in hypertension. Practices of Pranayama (controlled breathing exercises) like Nadi Shodhana and Shavasana will help in reducing stress levels, encouraging a calmer mind which directly impacts your blood pressure. Aim for at least 10 minutes a day.

Herbal Supplements: While Divya Mukta Vati is popular, speaking to a qualified Ayurvedic physician about alternatives like Arjuna (Terminalia arjuna) would be beneficial. It supports cardiovascular health but must be used under guidance.

Integration with Current Treatments: Be open and communicate with your healthcare providers about the integration of Ayurveda to ensure it harmonizes with existing treatments. It is essential that any herbs or practices do not conflict with your Allopathy or Homeopathy regimen.

In conclusion, a balanced approach integrating these measures can help manage your blood pressure and support overall heart health. While Ayurveda provides supplementary support, it’s vital to maintain regular check-ups and consultations with your cardiologist to monitor your heart condition effectively.

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. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

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. 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. Deepali Goswami
I am Dr. Deepali Goswami, BAMS graduate n working mainly around women's health. Right now m running my own clinic where i treat all kind of gyne problems—from irregular periods to PCOD, white discharge, fertility-related issues, menopausal symptoms n lot more that affects everyday life of females. I usually try to keep the language simple while dealing with patients cause honestly half of them come already confused or like really scared of what's happening inside their body... and if I use too much technical terms it just make it worse. I’ve been practicing in this space for couple of years now—don’t remember the exact month, maybe two or three year back? but anyway, what matters is I’ve seen how many of these problems get ignored till they turn serious. That’s something I feel strongly about. My goal is to help women understand their symptoms early and explain how Ayurveda can help gently but properly, whether it’s hormonal stuff or pain or cycle issues. I use classic Ayurvedic concepts like dosha analysis, ritucharya, n yoni vyapad chikitsa wherever it fits, but sometimes modern lifestyle really needs to be factored in too. Like if someone working night shift, no point telling them to wake up at 5am and do abhyanga daily—it won’t work. I’m practical about it. Anyway, I try my best to create a space where women feel heard. Lot of them said nobody actually explained them what’s going on before. And that’s like the saddest part. I feel my biggest strength is really just listening n tailoring the treatment to her routine, diet n stress pattern. Some cases are harder of course... things don’t always go fast, esp when it’s been neglected for yrs. But then Ayurveda’s not magic. It takes a little time—but results feel real n lasting when done right.

Dr. Shayma Kabeer
I am Dr. Shayma Kabeer — mostly working with Ayurveda, women’s health, nutrition n postpartum care. I don’t really seperate these things out tbh, cause in real life they always overlap. Like, you can't treat hormonal issues without looking at digestion, or talk skin without figuring out the stress-eating that’s happening quietly on the side. That’s kinda how I approach care—connect the dots before jumping to herbs or meds. My focus is usually gynecology-related probs... PCOS, irregular periods, thyroid imbalances, all the hormonal chaos that shows up when diet, sleep, and mental load go sideways. I see a lot of young women stuck in cycles of fatigue, weight fluctuation, emotional dips—Ayurveda actually gives a slower but deeper toolkit to work with that. I do a lot of assessment through dosha lens, nadi, agni state, even simple daily habits. Infertility is another space I work in—again, not in a rush-to-conceive mode always, but more like preparing the system... checking if the cycle is syncing, digestion’s on track, sleep is stable. It’s the inner rhythm that matters more than just hormone reports. Same with postnatal care—I support new mothers with wound healing, lactation, nutrition, n mood swings, cause honestly, recovery doesn’t just mean uterus shrinking back. It’s about rebuilding vitality gently. I also specialize in Ayurvedic nutrition—like building food plans for gynec issues, postnatal nourishment, or weight stuff that’s tied with metabolic funk. It’s not about rigid diet charts.. I prefer daily doable changes, seasonal tweaks, emotional food awareness. I often include skin/hair health too, cause that's where ppl feel stuck or self conscious first. Ayurveda is flexible when you know how to listen. That’s what I keep learning. Every pt has her own rhythm, n I try to hear it right—even if she doesn’t have the words for it yet.

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. Narasareddy
I am an Ayurvedic physcian with post-grad degree in Kayachikitsa (that’s internal medicine btw) and been working hands-on in clinical setups for over 5 yrs now—since finishing my BAMS. My work mostly revolve around managing internal disorders through classical Ayurvedic approach, especially chronic stuff... like digestion gone haywire, thyroid flares, migraine-types, joint probs or even weird skin things that just don’t go. I try to really *see* the patient before labeling the condition—because most times it’s not just a gut issue or just back pain, it’s a full picture out of balance. I use a mix of classical formulations, Panchakarma where needed (some people really benefit from it), daily routine tweaks, and sometimes even just diet correction can be way more powerful than we think. I also focus a lot on listening—like not rushing ppl into protocol mode unless we figure out what’s really going on. That part matters, at least to me. I mean what’s the point of a textbook-perfect plan if the patient can’t stick to it or feel worse halfway? Right? Metabolic disorders, fatigue, anxiety-patterns, IBS, migraines, skin-autoimmune crossover... those are kinda common cases I see often. And every plan is unique—nothing cookie-cutter, coz prakriti, age, agni, it all varies wildly. I try to keep things practical, science-backed, but still rooted in the Ayurvedic view of healing—not symptom chasing but fixing from the base. Doesn’t mean ignoring modern tools either... sometimes I’ll ask for labs, scans, referrals, whatever’s needed to support clean diagnosis. If you ask what drives me, it’s honestly that moment when a person says “I feel normal again.” That’s it. That’s the goal. Healing not just the disease but the human wrapped around it. Feels right, even on the off days.

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?

Dr. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Chaitrali Rajendra Tambe
I am someone who really believes that Ayurveda isn’t just about giving herbs and oils—it's more like a whole way of looking at the body, the habits, the food, and how everything connects together. I got solid training in Ayurvedic clinical practice and feel most confident when I'm using therapies like Panchakarma or planning proper Shodhana for someone who's stuck in a cycle of chronic illness or stress-related issues. There’s just something powerful about seeing how classical cleansing can bring that shift in energy and clarity for ppl who've tried everything else. I work a lot on dosha assessment—sometimes it takes a bit of digging cause symptoms don’t always line up in a textbook way. But once I figure out what’s really going off-balance, I try to make treatment super personalized. It’s not just about giving a kashayam or lepa... I spend time explaining diet changes, routines, sleep timing, and even emotional triggers when needed. Many people don’t realise how big a role lifestyle play in their conditions. Right now, I’m mostly focused on lifestyle disorders and detox-based therapies. Things like PCOS, fatty liver, skin allergies, joint stiffness, IBS, anxiety-linked issues… those come up a lot. I try not to rush. I’d rather go slow n consistent, combining classical concepts with modern diagnostics if needed. Blood tests, reports, scans—they help me track things while still keeping the treatment Ayurvedic in core. I’m also pretty organized about documenting my cases—not just for reference but to understand patterns better. I guess every case teaches you something new, even after hundreds of patients. And I do keep learning, whether it’s updating protocols or trying to refine a virechana schedule that didn’t go as planned. In the end, for me it’s really about finding that balance for each person... not just patching the symptom. I think that’s where Ayurveda really shines.
