Dr. Sumi. S
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic physician with specialized expertise in Shalakya Tantra, focusing on the diagnosis and management of disorders affecting the Netra (eyes), Karna (ears), Nasa (nose), Mukha (oral cavity), Danta (teeth), and Shira (head and ENT region). My training and clinical experience have equipped me to treat a wide range of conditions such as Netra Abhishyanda (conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early and advanced cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Karna Nada (tinnitus), Pratishyaya (chronic rhinitis and sinusitis), Mukhapaka (oral ulcers), Dantaharsha (dental sensitivity), and Shirashoola (headache and migraine). I routinely incorporate classical Ayurvedic therapeutic techniques like Kriya Kalpas, Nasya, Tarpana, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, Gandusha, Pratisarana, and Dhoomapana, along with internal Rasayana and Shamana therapies, ensuring treatments are both effective and tailored to each patient’s prakriti and condition. Beyond my specialization, I bring over two years of clinical experience managing multi-systemic disorders. My approach blends classical Ayurvedic principles with a sound understanding of modern diagnostics and pathology, allowing me to handle cases related to metabolic disorders (such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and PCOS), musculoskeletal issues (like arthritis and back pain), gastrointestinal disorders, skin conditions, and women’s health concerns, including infertility and hormonal imbalance. I believe in evidence-informed practice, patient education, and holistic healing. My focus is always on delivering compassionate care that empowers patients to actively participate in their health journey. Through continuous learning and clinical research, I remain committed to upholding the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda in a way that aligns with today’s healthcare needs.

Thanks for sharing your detailed history — it’s really helpful. A 12 cm asymptomatic uterine fibroid (on posterior wall) is large but still manageable, especially since you are not facing heavy bleeding or pain.

However, scanty periods and delayed cycles indicate hormonal imbalance or uterine lining changes caused by the fibroid’s pressure. Since this began only recently, early intervention can help you avoid surgery and manage it naturally.

Basic Investigations to be done:

1. Pelvic Ultrasound (TVS preferred) – to monitor fibroid size, location, and endometrial thickness. 2. CBC – to check for anemia. 3. Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4) – thyroid issues can affect periods. 4. Serum FSH, LH, Estradiol, Progesterone – for hormonal status. 5. Serum Vitamin D & B12 – to rule out other deficiencies. 6. CA-125 (if family history of reproductive cancers) – only as precaution.

Internal medicine: 1.Sukumaram Kashayam 15 ml with 30ml ofwarm water before food twice daily.(For scanty menses, hormonal imbalance). 2.Ashokarishta 15 ml with equal water twice daily after food .(Regulates periods, balances hormones) 3.Kanchanara Guggulu 2 -0-2 twice daily after food. (Reduce abnormal growth) 4.Rajahpravartini Vati 2-0-2 after food with warm water.

Diet & Lifestyle for Shrinking Fibroids

✅ Favour: Warm, light, easy-to-digest foods Ginger tea, turmeric, cumin-fennel-coriander infusion Cow’s ghee (small amount daily) Steamed vegetables, moong dal, pomegranate, beetroot

❌ Avoid: Curd/yogurt at night Red meat, packaged food, cold drinks Soy products. Late-night sleep.

Asanas to be practiced daily: 1.Supta baddha konasana 2.Setu bandhasana 3.Malasana 4.Bhujangasana 5.Ushtrasana

May your recovery be quick and your health fully restored. Please don’t hesitate to reach out for further guidance. With kind regards, Dr. Sumi

A 12 cm fibroid does require careful attention, even if it’s asymptomatic for the most part. The scanty menstrual flow and irregular periods could be a sign of the fibroid affecting your menstrual cycle. In Ayurveda, fibroids are often linked with an imbalance in the Kapha dosha and possibly an aggravated Rakta (blood) and Meda (fat) dhatus. Working on balancing these could he helpful.

First, aim to consume a Kapha-pacifying diet. This means incorporating warm, light, and easily digestible foods. Reduce intake of dairy, sugar, fried, and oily foods that can aggravate Kapha. Spices like turmeric, ginger, and cinnamon may help balance your dosha. Include warm, cooked vegetables and legumes in your meals. Try drinking warm water throughout the day; it aids digestion and helps reduce Kapha accumulation.

For lifestyle, regular physical activity is essential. Engage in moderate exercise for about 30 minutes daily, such as walking, yoga, or swimming. Avoid sedentary lifestyle and stay active as much as possible.

In terms of herbal remedies, Ayurvedic texts frequently mention Ashoka (Saraca asoca) and Lodhra (Symplocos racemosa) for managing menstrual health issues. You can prepare a decoction of these herbs or consult an Ayurvedic practitioner to determine the right dosage for your constitution, as each individual’s needs might be different.

Panchakarma therapies, under the guidance of an Ayurvedic doctor, can further assist in detoxifying and balancing the doshas. Treatments like Basti (enema therapy) and Virechana (purgation) can be beneficial, but they should only be undertaken with professional supervision.

Stress management and adequate sleep are also critical, as they influence hormonal balance. Practice meditation or calming breathing exercises to help maintain emotional balance. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider alongside these practices to monitor the condition and adjust treatments as necessary.

HELLO NEHA,

Fibroid is a noncancerous growth in or around uterus. It’s made of muscle and fibrous tissue. Your fibroid is located on the posterior wall of your uterus and is 12 cm, which Is large

YOUR CURRENT SYMPTOMS -asymptomatic= no pain, no pressure, no bleeding but you’ve noticed -missed period(may) -scanty flow(June and July)

This means the fibroid might be interfering with your hormonal balance or uterine lining, even if you dont feel pain or pressure

TREATMENT GOALS -shrink the fibroid naturally -regulate menstruation - balances hormones especially estrogen - prevent further growth or complications -avoid surgery, if safely possible

In Ayurveda, Uterine fibroid is known as “GRANTHI” in Ayurveda(hard,tumor like growth) -caused by imbalance in kapha(growth), vata(movement), and pitta(inflammation) -weak digestion , hormonal imbalance, and toxin accumulation also contribute

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs thrice daily after meals with warm water =breaks down fibrous growths and tumors

2) VARUNADI KASHAYA= 20 ml with equal water before food twice daily =balances kapha and vata, helps shrink fibroid size

3) ASHOKARISHTA= supports healthy menstruation, tones uterus -20 ml with equal water twice daily after meals

4) TRIPHALA GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =cleanses system, supports metabolism, detoxifies

5) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 2 tabs twice daily after food =improves liver function and hormone detoxification

6) TAMRA BHASMA= with honey 50mg twice daily =very effective

DIET TO BE FOLLLOWED -warm, light, fresh cooked meals -barley, millets, bajra, ragi, horse gram - green leafy vegetables- drumstick, laves, methi, bitter gourd - spices= turmeric, cumin, coriander, ginger -amla fresh or juice - Aloe vera juice-10ml on empty stomach - cow ghee in small amount improves digestion

FOOD TO AVOID -cold, stale, or processed foods - dairy=curd, panner, cheese -deep fried food, maida, white bread -refined sugar, and sugary drinks - soy products they mimic oestrogen - red meat and eggs - packaged or canned foods

LIFESTYLE CHANGES

GOOD HABITS -wake up early before 7 am - stay physically active- walk 30 mins daily - keep digestion strong- avoid heavy night meals - manage stress- anxiety, and anger disturb hormones -sleep 7-8 hours regularly

AVOID -day time sleeping -overeating or skipping meals - late night eating - constipation

HOME REMEDIES

1) CASTOR OIL PACK -soak cloth in warm castor oil, place over lower abdomen for 45 mins, 3-4 times/week =reduces inflammation and supports shrinkage

2) ALOE VERA + SHATAVARI JUICE -mix 10 ml each with warm water. take on empty stomach =helps nourish uterus and regulate periods

3) TURMERIC MILK =1/2 tsp turmeric in warm almond or nut milk at night. Anti inflammatory

YOGA FOR FIBROID AND HORMONAL BALANCE

-Supta baddha konasana -viparita karani -setu bandhasana - paschimottanasana -balasana -ustrasana

these improves pelvic circulation, reduce fibroid pressure and balance hormone

PRANAYAM -anulom vilom -bhramari -sheetali practice 10 mins daily

VISIBLE IMPROVEMENT IN PERIOFS= within 2-3 months

FIBROID SHRINKAGE= usually needs 6-12 months

ULTRASOUND CHECK= every 3-4 months

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

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 NEHA,

Uterine fibroids also called leiomyomas, are benign tutors that can vary in size and symptoms . While surgery is often recommended for large or symptomatic fibroids, non surgical options including Ayurveda treatment may help manage fibroids, especially if they’re asymptomatic, as in your case

CASE SUMMERY

FIBROID SIZE= 12 cm, on posterior uterine wall SYMPTOMS= none initially , but now scanty periods and missed periods in May CURRENT TREATMENT= homeopathy-helped initiate period in June JULY= period came without medicine , but scanty flow

CLINICAL PERSPECTIVE A 12 cm fibroid is considered large. Even if asymptomatic now, large fibroids can potentially cause -compression on nearby organs-bladder, rectum - fertility issues -heavy bleeding or scanty/irregular cycles - pain or bloating

AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT

1) INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

-KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals with warm water =scraping, kapha meda hará, anti tumor, lymphatic detox, reduces abnormal growth like fibroids

-PUSHYANUG CHURNA= 5 gm with rice water twice daily in morning and night = corrects menstrual flow especially for scanty or irregular periods , balances vata and pitta

-ASHOKARISHTA= 20 ml with equal water twice daily after meals =regulates menstrual cycle, supports endometrial health, reduces uterine congestion

-CHANDRAPRABHA VATI= 2 tabs twice daily with warm water = supports reproductive organs, reduces fibroids, improves metabolism

-LOHASAVA= 15 ml with equal water after meals twice daily =helps control excessive uterine growth and balances hormones

2) PANCHAKARMA THERAPIES these detoxification therapies may be suggested depending on body constitution -UTTARA BASTI= medicated oil enema through the vaginal route- often recommended for uterine disorders

-VIRECHANA= helps cleanse the liver and balance hormones

-ABHYANGA + SWEDANA= oil massage and steam therapy to improve circulation

3) LIFESTYLE ANND DIET TIPS

AVOID= dairy, red meat, refined sugar, and estrogen rich foods like soy

FAVOUR= fibre rich foods, green leafy vegetables, turmeric, ginger

MANAGE STRESS through yoga, pranayam especially nadi sodhana, bhramari

-Maintain a healthy weight-oestrogen dominance is often associated with fibroids

Although you’re asymptomatic , scanty periods and 12 cm fibroid merit regular monitoring with -pelvic ultrasound every 6 months - hemoglobin levels -hormonal profile-FSH,LH,ESTRADIOL etc

THANK YOU

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.

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

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

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. 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.
