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 SHABNAM,

You’re describing a combination of bradycardia(slow pulse: 52-58 bpm), severe acid reflux, shortness of breadth, lightheadedness, and pre syncope(feeling like you’re going to faint) . you’re also taking Nextito and Petrol since may of last year.

1) BRADYCARDIA(pulse 52-58) -may be normal in some healthy individual -but in your case, since you also have lightheadedness and near fainting, it may indicated s problem with heart conduction or low blood pressure

2) SHORTNESS OF BREATH AND REFLUX - GERD can cause chest tightness and breathing difficulty -but combined with medications like clonazepam and escitalopram, these symptoms can be worsened

3) MEDICATION SIDE EFFECTS -CLONAZEPAM= can cause sedation, dizziness, bradycardia -ESCITALOPRAM= can cause fatigue, lightheadedness, and GI issues -you may experiencing side effects or even drug induced bradycardia

In Ayurveda, your symptoms can be seen as an imbalance in vata and pitta doshas, especially affecting Annavaha srotas and pranavaha srotas

LIKELY DIAGNOSIS -amla pitta(hyperacidity) -vata pitta dushti -hridaya vyatha/shirashoola

GENERAL AYURVEDIC RECOMMENDATIONS

DIET AND LIFESTYLE -eat warm, freshly cooked, non spicy, non acidic foods - avoid tea/coffee, fried, fermented, and sour foods-like pickles, curd - small, frequent meals. avoid lying down immediately after eating -early dinner before 7:30 pm - gentle walk after meals

HERBAL REMEDIES

MORNING(EMPTY STOMACH)) -1 tsp avipattikkar churna with warm water-> reduces acid reflux, nausea, bloating

AFTER BREAKFAST -1 brahmi vati tablet = calms nerves, reduces anxiety, supports mental clarity

AFTERLUNCH 1 sutshekhar ras tablet = soothes acidity, improves digestion, helps with breathlessness

BEFORE BED -1/2 tsp Ashwagandha churna in warm milk = improves sleep, reduces fatigue, supports heart rate

YOGIC AND LIFESTYLE SUPPORT

BREATHING -anulom vilom= balances vata-pitta, improves oxygenation -bhramari pranayam= calms mind, supports parasympathetic nervous system - sheetali/sheetakari= useful in hyperacidity and emotional stress

YOGA -setu bandhasana= strengthens heart and improves ciruclation -supta baddha konasana= calms digestion, and mind - viparita karani= good for blood flow and dizziness -avoid high-intensity yoga until heart rate issues are ruled out

EAT - warm, bland ,easy to digest food= khichdi, rice, moong dal, ghee -cumin coriander fennel infused water -pomegrante, ripe banana, amla juice

AVOID -spicy, oily, sour foods -fermented foods, caffeine, carbonated drinks - eating late at night or skipping meals

TRY for 4 weeks, then reassess

THANK YOU

HELLO SHABNAM,

YOUR SYMPTOMS -Low pulse rate= 52-58 beats per minute(bradycardia) - severe acid reflux and shortness of breath - lightheadedness, especially on standing= possible orthostatic hypotension. Medications:- -NEXITO(escitalopram- an SSRI for anxiety/depression) -PETRIL(clonazepam- a benzodiazepine, calming agent)

POSSIBLE CAUSES OF YOUR SYMPTOMS

1) BRADYCARDIA -normal in some healthy individuals like athletes - can occur due to medications like clonazepam or SSRIs. - can also be due to electrolyte imbalance, thyroid issues, or vagal overstimulation-often related to anxiety and reflux

2) ACID REFLUX WITH SHORTNESS OF BREATH -severe GERD can press on the diaphragm, causing breathing issues -also anxiety, panic attacks, or vagal nerve stimulation(caused by Felix) can mimic shortness of breath.

3) LIGHTHEADEDNESS/ FAINTING - could be from low blood pressure, medications side effects or vagal response. - standing up quickly could trigger orthostatic hypotension.

MEDICAL RECOMMENDATIONS 1) get your pulse and BP monitored over 24 hours 2) Review medications with your doctor - clonazepam can slow heart rate and cause lightheadedness - Escitalopram can worsen reflux 3) ECG and thyroid function test 4) Electrolyte panner-low potassium or magnesium can affect heart rate. 5) Gastroenterology review- severe GERD may need endoscopy or further evaluation

AYURVEDIC DIAGNOSIS -URDHWAGA AMLAPITTA- acid rising upwards, causing chest discomfort, suffocation, nausea, heartburn -vata pitta dushti - associated manasika vyadhi- anxiety(chittodvega), often a component of chronic reflux

TREATMENT PRINCIPLES 1) deepana pachana= normalize digestion and reduce AMA 2) Srotoshodhana= clear metabolic channels 3) Hridaya balya= strengthen the heart and nervous system 4) Mano balya= support mental calmness, reduce anxiety 5) Anulomana= downward flow of vata to rescue reflux

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm water for 15-30 mins before meals = acid reflux, hyperacidity, sour belching

2) SUTSHEKHAR RAS(GOLD)- 125 mg with honey or ghee twice daily after meals =highly effective for chronic acid reflux, nausea, stress-induced gastritis

3) KAMDUDHA RAS(MUKTA YUKTA)- 250 mg twice daily with cold milk = for burning sensation, acidity, restlessness, and suffocation

4) MANASAMIRA VATAKAM- 1 tab twice daily with water = calms anxiety, improves sleep, balances mood, supports SSRIs.

5) HRIDAYARNAVA RAS- 125 mg twice daily with water = supports cardiac function, relieves bradycardia symptoms due to vata.

6) DRAKSHADI KASHAYA- 30 ml with water after meals = reduces heat in the system, calming , helps suffocation.

YOGA AND PRANAYAM DO DAILY -Anulom-vilom= 5-10 mins -Sheetali/Sheetakari= 5 min- for acidity -Vajrasana after meals- improves digestion -Setubandhasana/Matsyasana- opens diaphragme -Yoga Nidra at night

Avoid forward bending asanas or kapalbhabhati- they may worsen reflux.

DIET PLAN -warm, freshly cooked meals- mung dal, rice, gourds, pumpkin -cow ghee, soaked almonds, coconut water - buttermilk with roasted jeera - tender coconut or lukewarm coriander water - boiled milk with shatavari churna 1 tsp at night

AVOID -fried, sour, spicy , fermented foods- pickle, curd, vinegar -tea/coffee, carbonated drinks - tomatoes, citrus fruits, onion, garlic -late night eating, irregular meals - overeating or skipping meals

WARNINNG AND PRECAUTIONS -do not stop Next or Petril suddenly- you can taper down only under doctor guidance - monitor pulse, BP, and symptoms daily

DO FOLLOW

THANK YOU

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

Your symptoms of severe acid reflux, shortness of breath, and lightheadedness could indicate a compromised agni (digestive fire) and imbalance in the doshas, primarily involving pitta and possibly vata. It’s crucial to address this with immediate attention to avoid further complications. For severe cases, it’s vital to follow your medical practitioner’s advice and seek immediate medical evaluation for any life-threatening symptoms.

Meanwhile, from an Ayurvedic perspective, here are some steps you could consider. Firstly, focus on a balancing diet that calms pitta. Incorporate more cooling foods such as cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens. Avoid spicy, fried, and acidic foods that can aggravate acid reflux and pitta dosha.

Start your day with warm water mixed with a teaspoon of honey and a few drops of lime to soothe your digestive system. Try to maintain regular meal timings to stabilize agni. Skipping meals or irregular eating can disturb vata and increase pitta imbalance.

Yoga and pranayama can be helpful; however, avoid strenuous activities. Simple stretching, gentle yoga, and breathing practices like nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) can help balance vata and pitta, calming the mind and reducing feelings of lightheadedness.

In terms of herbs, consider Ayurvedic supplements like amalaki (Indian gooseberry) for its cooling properties and digestive benefits. Aloe vera juice may also provide some relief for your heartburn. Always consult an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting new supplements, especially alongside existing medications like nexito and petril.

Finally, aim for adequate rest, ensuring your sleeping environment is conducive to uninterrupted sleep. Elevate the head of your bed to help manage acid reflux during the night. Prioritizing stress management techniques, like meditation or mindful breathing, might also help calm your mind and reduce reliance on medications. But, always coordinate with your healthcare provider to monitor and adjust your treatment plan safely.

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

Dr. 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. 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. 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. 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.

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