Hello mohan I can understand your concern regarding Androgenetic alopecia bur dont worry we are here to help you out!!

See i have seen significant changes in my patients having alopecia but it is really a long duration treatment you have to be consistent with treatment.

✅FIRST 3-4 MONTHS TO STOP THE PROGRESSION OF HAIR LOSS

✅ NEXT 1-2 MONTH OF STANGANT THAT IS NO PROGRESSION AND NO HAIR GROWTH

✅AFTER THIS SLOWELY HAIR GROWTH WILL START

✅ SO CONSIDER THIS AS A YEAR PROGRAM!!!

IN ALOPECIA MAIN TREATMENT WILL BE PANCHAKARMA ☑️you have to go to nearby center for this therapies ☑️You have to repeat this treatment every 3 months ☑️This treatment will be for 7 days

🔴PANCHKARMA🔴 1. Shiro abhynaga with Malatyadi taila 2. Hair loss patches is scrubed with incha ( natural scrub) - this scrubing will activate your hair follicles and improve your blood circulation 3. Thalapozichila - ( it is a renowned kerala ayurvedic therapy where in the medicated paste is applied on the head and covered it with bananana leaves)

🔴INTERNAL MEDICATION🔴 1. vidangaristham 30 ml-0-30ml after food 2. Groo 1-0-1 after food 3. Thickshoot A 1-0-1 after food 4. Jeevamrutham 1 tsp at bed time followed by warm water

🔴EXTERNAL TREATMENT🔴 1. Durdurpatradi taila + Durvadi thaila - mix and apply on the head half hour before bath 2. Indralupta mashi - this is black color powder mix it with water and apply on the hair loss patches daily 3. Use chemical free hair wash

🔴LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION🔴 1. Do pranayanam 2. Yoga, meditation 3. Journalling

I can understand that such condition takes troll on your mental health but dont stress as stress will again aggrevate the condition

This will definaetly work if you are consistent with the treatment I have seen changes in many patients i know it is very difficult to suffer with such condition, i wull be very greatful if i could bring change in your life!!

Hope you found this helpful!! Wish a good luck!!😊

Addressing hairfall and dandruff naturally through Ayurveda involves a comprehensive approach, focusing on balancing your doshas, improving your overall health, and using natural remedies. A receding hairline and grey hair at 21 suggests a Pitta imbalance, exacerbated by stress, lifestyle choices, or genetic predispositions.

Firstly, calming Pitta dosha is crucial. Avoid spicy and fried foods, as they can aggravate Pitta. Instead, consume cooling foods like coconut, cucumber, and fennel. Incorporate fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables. Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water and consider herbal teas like chamomile and hibiscus, which are soothing.

Oiling your hair regularly with cooling oils like Brahmi, Amla, or coconut oil can help nourish the scalp and hair. Warm the oil slightly before applying, massaging gently into the scalp. Leave it overnight if comfortable, and wash it off in the morning. Perform this twice a week consistently.

Use a natural, herbal shampoo once or twice a week. Avoid harsh chemicals that strip away natural oils. Look for shampoos with amla, hibiscus, or reetha, known for promoting hair health. To tackle dandruff, a paste of neem leaves can be applied to your scalp and washed off after 30 minutes. Neem is excellent for its antibacterial properties.

Stress reduction is also key. Practice yoga or meditation daily to calm the mind. Breathing exercises like Pranayama, especially Sheetali or Nadi Shodhana, can balance Pitta and reduce stress.

For grey hair, apply a mixture of Amla powder and henna mixed with water. Amla is potent in restoring natural hair color and preventing premature greying. Leave it on the hair for about an hour before washing off, doing this every fortnight.

Ensure your diet is rich in iron, zinc, and proteins to encourage healthy hair growth. Consider consuming soaked almonds, walnuts, and other nuts daily for vital nutrients.

If the hair fall continues to be severe or you notice bald spots, you may wish to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for an even more tailored guidance. Remember, changes can take time, patience and consistent effort with natural remedies will eventually pay off.

HELLO MOHAN,

You’re experiencing- -severe dandruff- itchy, flaky scalp- indicates scalp infection or dryness -hairfall for 3 years -receding hairline-early baldness, stage 2 of androgenetic alopecia -greying of hair at age 21 -you don’t want allopathy -no chronic illness

In Ayurveda, your problem is called KHALITYA-PALITYA caused by- Imbalance of Pitta and Vata Dosha -pitta causes early greying, weak hair roots -vata causes dry scalp, dandruff, brittle hair -weak digestion, this leads to miniaturisation of hair follicles, ,thinning, and baldness

What’s happening to your Hair? -your testosterone is converting into DHT(dihydrotestosterone) which attacks hair roots-this is common in men. -liver may not be detoxing well- a hidden cause of hair and skin issues -you may also have malabsorption- meaning your digestion isn’t providing nutrients to hair.

This condition is Khalitya+Palitya due to pitta-bata dushti with underlying Rasa-Rakta dhatu kshaya- weak blood and nutrient plasma.

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT MANAGEMENT DURATION- 3 to 6 months

1)BHRINGARAJASAVA- 20 ml+ 20 ml water after meals, twice daily =potent rasayana for hair follicle revival (Arya Vaidya sala/ baidyanth brand compulsory)

2)BRAHMI VATI- 1 tab morning and night =calms nervous system, reduces DHT via stress control (Patanjali / unjha brand )

3)CHITRAKADI VATI- 1 tab before lunch and dinner with warm water =enhances digestion, clears toxins (baidyanath brand)

4)PRAWAL PANCHAMRIT RAS- 125 mg with honey in morning =controls scalp heat, premature greying (baidyanath brand)

5)NARASIMHA RASAYANA(GHEE-BASED)- 1 tsp with warm milk on empty stomach =strengthens tissues, improves texture (kottakal brand)

6)KESHYA KALPA- 1 tsp twice a day with milk =specialised formula for hair regrowth (sandu/AVN)

EXTERNAL MANAGEMENT

1)MEDICATED OIL- ROTATE FOR BEST RESULTS -MAHABRINGARAJ TAILA- massage 3 times/week at night =regrows hair, cool scalp(baidyanth/AVS)

2)KAYYANYADI TAILA- alternate oil(esp if dandruff/ fungal) =reduces seborrheic itchy dandruff(kotakkal)

3)NEELIBRINGADI KERA TAILA- ideal for pitta-dominant scalp(heat) =very cooling, great for greying(AVP brand)

WARM OIL BEFORE APPLICATION. STEAM SCALP WITH HOT TOWEL AFTER MASSAGE.

2)MASHI APPLICATION- bhringaraj mashi+sesame oil -take bringaraj mashi-available in market -mix 2 tsp in cold-pressed sesame oil -apply gently on scalp 1-2 times/week -wash off after 1-2 hours with herbal shampoo

WHY? because Mashi is deeply penetrating, helps revitalise burnt-out follicles, and balances pitta

SHAMPOO AND CLEANSING -use these 2-3 times/week -DHURDHURAPATRADI KWATHA(liquid decoction for hair wash)- by Arya Vaidya Sala or mild shampoo with -shikakai -reetha -amla

or Kesh Kanti Anti-dandruff Shampoo-patanjai

Avoid chemical shampoos entirely.

HERBAL HAIR PACK-ONCE A WEEK -Make a paste with Amla powder- 2 tsp Bhringaraj powder- 1 tsp Aloe vera gel- 2 tsp Neem powder- 1 tsp(for dandruff) Mix with rose water or buttermilk. Apply on scalp, leave for 30-45 mins. Wash with lukewarm water.

NASYA KARMA- OIL NASAL THERAPY start after 7-10 days of internal detox use ANU TAILA- 2drops in each nostril every morning-on empty stomach -lie down with neck extended -put 2 drops in each nostril -inhale deeply and stay in that position for 5 mins

BENEFITS- improves scalp circulation, reduces hair fall, improves sleep, clears sinuses.

DIET :-

EAT MORE OF AMLA- raw or juice= hair rejuvination, natural vitamin C

CURRY LEAVES- boiled in ghee= stops greying

BLACK SESAME SEEDS-1 tsp daily= rich in calcium, hair tonic

COW GHEE-1 tsp with lunch and dinner= nourishes all 7 dhatus

WARM MILK WITH RASAYANA- restores strength to hair

AVOID STRICTLY -fermented foods- bread, idli, dosa, cheese -excess tea/coffee -cold water on head -stress, night work, irregular sleep -over washing or scrubbing scalp

LIFESTYLE AND YOGA SLEEP- by 10 pm. Hormonal balance depends on this. -Anulom-vilom= balances doshas -Sheetali/sheetkari- cools pitta -Bhramari- reduces mental tension, indirectly reduces hair fall -Balayam- nail rubbing- 10 mins/day

EXPECTED RESULTS

WEEK 1-2 = dandruff reduces, scalp cooling WEEK 3-4 = hair fat slows, itching gone MONTH 2= grey hair stabilises, new baby hair MONTH 3-6 = hair thickens, regrowth in bald areas begins

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

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.

NAMASTE MOHAN,

At 21 years old, with signs of androgenetic alopecia , severe dandruff, greying, and receding hairline, its important to act early to slow or control the condition

-Androgenetic alopecia- this is genetic and hormone driven(DHT sensitivity), typically causing hairline recession and crown thinning

-DANDRUFF could be seborrheic dermatitis or fungal - causes inflammation that worsens hairfall

-Premature greying= often linked to pitta imbalance, genetics or nutritional deficiencies

DIETARY CHANGES

EAT -amla daily- raw, juice, or as a churna -black sesame seeds- 1 tsp daily in morning -curry leaves-- raw or in cooking -cow ghee- nourishes scalps and nerves -pumpkun seeds- for zinc and DHT regulation -protein rich foods- moong dal, panner etc

AVOID -excess spicy, oily, salty and processed foods -caffeine, soft drinks, smoking -late night sleeping

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm water at night= for detox

2) BHRINGARAJ CHURNA- 1 tsp twice daily with honey and water

3) AMALAKI RASAYANA- 1 tsp daily in morning

4) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA- 1 tsp at bedtime with warm milk reduces stress-related hairloss

5) YASHTIMADHU- 1/2 tsp in milk-supports scalp health

EXTERNAL HAIR OIL -brigaraj+brahmi+amla+neem+coconut oil massage scalp 3 times/week at night, leave overnight wash in morning

LIFESTYLE AND SCALP CARE -use mild herbal shampoo 3 times/week -use neem water rinse weekly for dandruff -avoid hot water for head bath don’t use chemical based gels/sprays

YOGA AND PRANAYAM to reduce stress -bhramari, anulom vilom, kapalbhati -sarvangasana, shirsshasana, balasana

REGULAR SLEEP -go to bed by 10-10:30 pm aim for 7-8 hours

NATURAL DANDRUFF CONTROL -NEEM LEAF PASTE - apply weekly to scalp -FENUGREEK SEED- soak overnight make paste apply30 mins before washing -Aloe vera gel- apply fresh to scalp to soothes inflammation

FOR PREMATURE GREYING -Amla juice + cure leaf powder daily -bhringaraj+black sesame paste applied weekly -avoid stress, fried foods and late nights

No treatment will give permenant results overnight- consistency for 6-12 months is needed

DO FOLLOW

THANK YOU

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. 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. 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. Kahekashan Awatif Khanam
I am an Ayurvedic physician who kinda took the long way round in practice, but I feel that helped. I started off in the surgical dept., worked for a full year under a general surgeon—ya, in an allopathic setup—mostly assisting with diabetic wounds, dressing changes, debridement and post-op wound healing. That phase really taught me patience... and precision too. I wasn’t just watching, I was doing the stuff daily. Lot of tissue work, infection management, gauging healing speed—it all stayed with me even as I moved into Ayurveda fully. Now I run OPD-based practice in Mumbai. My major focus right now is musculoskeletal n autoimmune things—Amavata, Sandhivata—basically arthritis spectrum. I see a lot of cervical spondylysis, sciatica, frozen shoulder, you name it. I use internal meds + local therapies, mostly oil applications, kati basti, snehan–swedana combos. In few cases we do deeper detox (panchakarma types), but I keep it minimal unless needed. Pain relief is big, yes, but I’m more interested in building back lost mobility. Kidney stones is another area I take up often—non-surgical management only. Not everyone knows this but a lot of small-medium calculi *can* pass with the right formulations + diet corrections. It takes close monitoring, like a lot of it, but many patients avoid surgery when they stick to the plan. I always go case by case though, I don’t generalize stone care. Also yeah, I’m a certified nutritionist too, which kind of bridges the gap for me. I don’t believe Ayurveda and food can be handled separate. What they eat during vata aggravation or post-shodhana affects outcomes way more than people think. I like working on chronic cases, especially the ones who’ve seen too many doctors and still feel stuck. My treatment plans aren’t flashy, but I do adjust every small detail for each person. That’s where I think it works—the tuning, not the intensity.

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. 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. 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. Prasad Pentakota
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. 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. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.

Dr. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.
