I believe in treating the individual as a whole, not just the symptoms they present. My approach to healthcare is rooted in the Ayurvedic philosophy that the body, mind, and lifestyle are deeply interconnected. When you come to me for care, I don’t just focus on the surface-level issue—whether it's a headache, skin irritation, or digestive discomfort—I aim to understand the root cause behind it. For example, a recurring headache is never "just" a headache. I take the time to assess your digestion, sleep quality, emotional well-being, and daily habits. I believe that true healing begins when all systems of the body are brought into harmony. That’s why my treatment plans are always personalized—carefully tailored to your constitution, lifestyle, and current health status. I emphasize the importance of diet and routine in maintaining long-term wellness. I often guide my patients through sustainable lifestyle modifications, practical dietary advice, and herbal interventions that are safe, effective, and accessible. My goal is not only to relieve your present discomfort but to improve your overall quality of life—physically, mentally, and emotionally. I value building a trusting and open doctor-patient relationship where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you're seeking support for chronic issues or looking to enhance your vitality through preventive care, I offer a compassionate, holistic, and evidence-informed approach that aligns with the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda.

Your food/ lifestyle, might be contributing to this symptoms. First we need to rule out what is the root cause of this. Once we find that half treatment is done. Remaining think we can easily manage by simple medicine.

Ear pain, dizziness, and associated symptoms you're experiencing sound challenging. Though you've ruled out infections, the persistent symptoms suggest that there might be an imbalance in your body's doshas, especially related to Vata. Vata governs movement and circulation, and its imbalance often leads to symptoms like dizziness and anxiety. Here, let's explore some personalized Ayurvedic strategies: First, addressing the Vata imbalance is essential. Begin with a daily routine of Abhyanga or self-massage with warm sesame oil before your bath. Sesame oil has warming qualities, soothing Vata. Gently massage it onto your scalp, temples, ears, neck, and jaw area, focusing on where there's tension. Your diet should consist of warm, nourishing foods to ground Vata. Include cooked vegetables, whole grains, and easy-to-digest proteins like mung beans. Avoid cold, dry, and raw foods, as well as stimulants like caffeine, which may exacerbate anxiety and dizziness. For TMJ and jaw stiffness, Pranayama can be incredibly beneficial. Practice gentle alternate nostril breathing (Nadi Shodhana) daily. This technique helps in calming the mind and balancing the nervous system. Also, try Jaw Relaxation exercises: gently open your jaw wide, hold for few seconds, and release. Do this regularly. Regarding dizziness, Panchakarma therapies like Shirodhara (pouring warm oil over the forehead) could offer relief. However, these should be done under the supervision of a qualified practitioner. To further support your nervous system, consider taking Ashwagandha powder, a known adaptogen, which can aid in reducing anxiety. Mix 1 teaspoon with warm milk before bedtime. Monitor how each recommendation affects your overall well-being. If dizziness persists or intensifies, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to explore further diagnostics beyond Ayurveda, ensuring comprehensive care.

Based on your symptoms, it seems there may be some underlying imbalance influenced by Vata dosha. The link between ear pain, dizziness, jaw stiffness, and anxiety could indicate an aggravated Vata, leading to instability and discomfort in the head and neck regions. Given the ear pain and dizziness, it’s wise to address the Vata by grounding your daily routine. First, apply a warm sesame oil massage gently around the jaw, neck, and shoulders to reduce tension in the muscles. Use circular motions to ease stiffness and improve circulation. One can do this daily, preferably in the evening when there is more time to relax. Next, practice pranayama like Nadi Shodhana, or alternate nostril breathing, for 10-15 minutes daily to calm the mind and balance energy channels. This technique helps in reducing stress and anxiety that may be contributing to dizziness. Include grounding foods like warm cooked meals, root vegetables, and whole grains in your diet. Avoid cold, raw, or dried food items as they may exacerbate Vata. Also, ensure you're staying hydrated adequately but avoid cold drinks. Consider the use of Brahmi or Sarpagandha as herbal supports, but only under guidance from a qualified practitioner, as these help to calm the mind and support restful sleep. Regarding dizziness and ear-related issues, it is essential to consult with a healthcare professional or an ENT specialist to ensure there's no underlying condition requiring immediate attention. Jaw tension and headaches could sometimes indicate TMJ disorders, in which case, exploring physical therapy or specific exercises targeting the jaw and neck might be beneficial. Finally, prioritize stress management techniques such as meditation, grounding exercises, or even gentle yoga practices tailored to your needs. Adjusting your lifestyle around these elements can help restore balance and reduce the fear and symptoms you’re experiencing.
