Sir consult panchakarma Therapist for this, for nervous weekness it will help giving balya treatment I am suggesting some topical Oil Therapy for Penis Shrinkage-

Use daily for 3–5 minutes :

Ashwagandha Bala Tail,

Warm slightly and apply from base to tip (don’t apply on urethra)

This increases blood supply, reduces fibrosis, and mildly restores tissue

Lifestyle Changes to Restore Function

Do Avoid

Light walk daily (15–30 min) Sitting too long (causes pelvic congestion) Warm water sitz bath Cold exposure to lower body Deep breathing (Anulom Vilom) Stress and late nights 5 soaked almonds + 1 tsp ghee Alcohol, smoking, fried foods

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 BSMURTY,

At age 62, and with peripheral neuropathy, its not unusual to have symptoms like -erectile dysfunction -shrinkage or retracting of the penis,sometimes it is called “bush penis” where it sinks into fat pad above the pubic area -urinary difficulty

These can happen due to -poor blood flow-common with diabetes, heart disease , neuropathy -nerve damage - esp from diabetes or chronic alcohol use hormona decline- testosterone decreases with age -obesity or loss of muscle tone -side effect of medications

Ayurveda sees sexual health as governed by shukra dhatu(reproductive tissue), and dysfunction can be due to imbalance in vata, pitta or kapha especially vata in neuropathy and aging

AYURVEDIC MEDICATIONS

1)ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime =rejuvination, nerve tonic, improves improves strength and libido

2)SHILAJIT RESIN- 500 mg resin once daily with warm water =aphrodisiac, enhances blood flow and energy, antioxidants

3)GOKSHUR CAPSULE- 1 cap twice daily =urinary system support, mild diuretic, improves stamina

4)KAPIKACCHU POWDER- 3-5 gm powder with warm milk twice daily =dpoamine precursor, improves erection and libido

5)SAFED MUSLI POWDER- 5 gm with milk twice daily =aphrodisiac, strength-promoting , improves erectile function

EXTERNAL USE -ASHWAGANDHA BALA TAILA -warm the oil and gently massage lower back, thighs, and lower abdomen daily

DIET -warm, cooked nourishing foods -add ghee, dates, almonds, saffron, milk -avoid cold, dry, spicy, fried food -avoid smoking, alcohol, and heavy night meals

YOGA+PRANAYAM -moola bandha-pelvic floor tightening= 10-15 reps/day -vajrasana, bhujangasana, pavanmuktasana -anulom vilom, bhramari, deep breathing

Thank you for opening up about what you’re going through. I truly understand that such concerns can feel deeply distressing, especially when they affect not just your health, but also your confidence and quality of life. Please know you’re not alone and there are ways we can gently support your system to restore strength and function.

According to Ayurvedic point of view conditions like shrinking of penis, erectile difficulties and poor urine flow are often linked to weakening of the reproductive and nervous tissues along with reduced circulation in the pelvic region . At your age this can be further affected by long-standing health conditions, such as peripheral neuropathy which impacts the narrow and the blood supply. The private party is a region where fine carry both blood and nerve impulses so if those channels are affected due to nerve weakness or poor metabolic health this symptoms can emerge over time

The shrinkage you mentioned may be partly due to lack of active blood circulation and tissue nourishment in that area, poor erectile strength, and weak urine flow. Often go hand in hand with this, when blood flow reduces the tissue start to lose its vitality tone and function added to that peripheral neuropathy indicate that the nervous system isn’t sending signals effectively with further affects both sensation and response in the pelvic region

With the approaches this by working on three levels Restoring proper circulation Strengthening the reproductive system And calming the nervous system This is done through internal Ayurvedic medicines, external applications, gentle therapist, and lifestyle adjustments

Internally, you can start on Yavanamrita vati- Yauvan gold capsule- Chandraprabha vati -one tablet each twice daily after food with warm water The above medicine promote tissue nourishment, improve blood flow to the pelvic area and support nerve repair

Externally, gentle massage over lower abdomen, thighs, and genital region with warm sesame oil or coconut oil. It stimulate the blood flow and review the local tissue strength. Along with internal medicines and gentle massage, it is important to know how your digestion sleep, quality and emotional balances are because all this influence how well the body regenerate, tissues and maintenance vitality You can do gentle yoga with improve pelvic blood flow like lying down like stretches or supported squads can also support the circulation

With the above mentioned medicines, many patients do feel gradually improvement in their symptoms. The process may take time but with consistent support, even long standing issues can be shifted positively

Please do not lose. Your condition is understandable, and Ayurveda does offer gentle, but effective support that can help you feel more comfortable and confident again. I am here to guide you at every step.

Erectile dysfunction and the shrinking of the penis you are experiencing, especially with added complications from peripheral neuropathy, are understandably distressing. In Ayurveda, this can be seen through the lens of Vata imbalance, which might lead to poor circulation and nerve abnormalities.

First, an important consideration is circulation, both blood and nerve flow. A nutrient-rich diet, warming herbs, and improved lifestyle can help. Start by incorporating a diet that’s Sattvic, focusing on Vata-pacifying foods. That means prefer warm, cooked meals. Include foods like rice, lentils and cooked vegetables such as carrots or squash. Sesame oil can be massaged gently into the pelvic area to stimulate blood flow.

Ashwagandha, an adaptogen, can be beneficial in revitalizing energy levels and enhancing circulation. Taking Ashwagandha powder with warm milk in the evening may support better blood flow and energy.

Tribulus (Gokshura) is another potent Ayurvedic herb often used to boost vitality and support reproductive health. Use it under the guidance of a practitioner, as it can stimulate blood flow and help with erectile function.

Pranayama practices, like Anulom Vilom (Alternate nostril breathing), are excellent for calming Vata and increasing circulation. Practicing daily for 10 minutes may offer improvements in both nerve health and penile blood flow.

Alongside, Triphala can aid digestion and look after your elimination processes so that your body’s system is unhampered and nutrients keep flowing.

For your peripheral neuropathy, ensuring you monitor blood sugar levels if they’re an issue and providing routine care for limb circulation and nerve health is essential. Regular warm baths can support circulation improvement too, making sure you don’t overdo the heat due to peripheral sensitivity.

Erectile concerns often do require a holistic view, and collaborating with a healthcare provider is always important, especially at times severe cases require immediate medical attention. While Ayurveda can work slowly, it’s part of integrating broader integrative care.

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.

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.

ChatGPT said: 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.

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. 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.

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. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

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. Nancy Malani
I am still early in my journey as an Ayurveda doctor, just completed my one year of rotatory internship and now practicing since about 3 months. Honestly it feels both exciting and heavy sometimes, because you want to do your best but also realize how much more there is to learn. During internship I got exposure to different departments, inpatient and OPD, hands-on with case history taking, basic Panchakarma observation, and seeing how diagnosis by dosh imbalance actually plays out in real life and not just in books. Right now along with my clinical practice, I also work as an Ayurveda consultant (remote) with Caremeez. That role is interesting in its own way — you don’t have the direct physical presence with patient, but still you guide them through symptoms, food patterns, stress issues, minor illnesses, and help them adapt Ayurvedic lifestyle solutions. Sometimes the limitation of not being able to touch pulse or do physical exam makes it tricky, but you also learn how much can be understood just by listening carefully and asking the right questions. In practice I try to keep things simple, clear and practical. No unnecessary complication for the patient. Even if it’s diet advice, I avoid long lists and instead focus on what they can actually follow. For medicines too, I stick to what is relevant, safe and time tested. I know I’m at the beginning stage, still shaping my way of treatment, sometimes correcting myself, sometimes second guessing. But I see value in that too — it makes me cautious, makes me double check before prescribing. My goal is to slowly build a practice that is balanced, where Ayurveda is not just seen as herbal medicine but as a full approach involving diet, daily routine, stress balance, detox when needed. Even in these 3 months of practice, I already see small changes in patients when they follow consistently. That’s what keeps me moving, even on days when I feel unsure or stuck.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.
