aapko kahne se it seems to be chronic insomnia. dawaai ke binaa sleep nahi aata kai is ka matlab your insomnia converts into medicine dependent.

We can focus on your sleep cycle. Fix you sleep time and go to bed at that time and turn off the screen at least 1 hour before bed. If you don’t fall asleep after 20-30 minutes, you can read some books and keep trying fall asleep.

Avoid tea/coffee at evening and night. Use your bed only for sleep.

1. Ksheerabala tailam for regular head massage. 2. Put the above tailam as talam over your head at evening time for 30 minutes and wipe off with a towel and pour kachooradi choornam.

If above things doesn’t work, took manasamitram gulika 1 at night for 2 weeks.

Stay calm warm regards, Dr. Shaniba

I am working in Ayurveda field from some time now, started out as a general physician at Chauhan Ayurveda Hospital in Noida. That place taught me a lot—how to handle different types of patients in OPD, those daily cases like fever, digestion issues, body pain... but also chronic stuff which keeps coming back. After that I moved to Instant Aushadhalya—an online Ayurveda hospital setup. Whole different space. Consultations online ain’t easy at first—no pulse reading, no direct Nadi check—but you learn to ask the right things, look at patient’s tone, habit patterns, timing of symptoms... and yeah it actually works, sometimes even better than in person. Right now I’m working as an Ayurveda consultant at Digvijayam Clinic where I’m focusing more on individualised care. Most ppl come here with stress-related problems, digestion issues, joint pain, that kind of mix. I go by classic diagnosis principles like prakriti analysis, dosha imbalance and all, but also mix in what I learned from modern side—like understanding their lifestyle triggers, screen time, sleep cycles, food gaps n stress patterns. I don’t rush into panchakarma or heavy medicines unless it’s needed... prefer starting with simple herbs, diet change, basic daily routine correction. If things demand, then I go stepwise into Shodhan therapies. My goal is to not just “treat” but to help ppl know what’s happening in their body and why its reacting like that. That awareness kinda becomes half the cure already. Not everything is perfect. Sometimes ppl don’t follow what you say, sometimes results are slow, and yeah that gets to you. But this path feels honest. It’s slow, grounded, and meaningful.

hello Fareed,

Aap jo bata rahe hain, usse lagta hai ki aapko chronic insomnia (नींद न आने की आदत) ho gaya hai. Jab hum lambi samay tak sirf dawa se hi so paate hain, to body uski aadat bana leti hai. Phir bina medicine, dimaag relax hi nahi hota. Yeh cycle todna thoda waqt leta hai, lekin possible hai. Aapka stress ya overthinking bhi is problem ko badha sakta hai. Iske liye Ayurvedic medicines ke saath saath dincharya aur relaxation bhi zaruri hai.

Treatment Plan:

Ama Pachana (First 3 days)

Avipattikar Churna – 1 tsp with warm water after dinner Triphala Churna – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime

From Day 4 onwards (Main Medicines)

3. Manasmitra Vatakam – 1 tablet at night with warm milk 4. Ashwagandha Churna – 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime 5. Brahmi Ghrit – ½ tsp in the morning empty stomach 6. Tagara Tablet – 1 tablet at bedtime

Follow this for at least 6 weeks. Slowly reduce dependency on sleeping pills under your doctor’s guidance. Try light evening walks, avoid screens 1 hour before bed, and take dinner early.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

I am a dedicated Ayurveda practitioner with a deep-rooted passion for restoring health through traditional Ayurvedic principles. My clinical approach revolves around understanding the unique constitution (Prakruti) and current imbalance (Vikruti) of each individual. I conduct comprehensive consultations that include Prakruti-Vikruti Pareeksha, tongue examination, and other Ayurvedic diagnostic tools to identify the underlying causes of disease, rather than just addressing symptoms. My primary focus is on balancing the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—through individualized treatment plans that include herbal medicines, therapeutic diets, and lifestyle modifications. I believe that healing begins with alignment, and I work closely with my patients to bring the body, mind, and spirit into harmony using personalized, constitution-based interventions. Whether managing chronic conditions or guiding preventive health, I aim to empower patients through Ayurvedic wisdom, offering not just relief but a sustainable path to well-being. My practice is rooted in authenticity, guided by classical Ayurvedic texts and a strong commitment to ethical, patient-centered care. I take pride in helping people achieve long-term health outcomes by integrating ancient knowledge with a modern, practical approach. Through continuous learning and close attention to every detail in diagnosis and treatment, I strive to deliver meaningful, natural, and effective results for all my patients.

Hello, 1. As you are saying the issue is since a year, which means there is a reason for it to start. So please think about that and see how to get out of that reason. 2. Please do have a sleep routine by going to a bed in particular time and waking up at a fixed time, irrespective of the sleep. 3. Have a regular exercise routine. Learn Yogasana and pranayama form a good teacher and start practicing consistently-daily immediately. 4. Have early dinner which is easy to digest preferably vegetarian. 5. Avoid coffee/tea after 4PM in the evening. 6. Please see to it that you do not become dependent on any sleep medicines; they need to be taken for very short period till you adopt the above said practices in your life.

Along with the above, taking the following for 30 days will help: 1. Manomitram 1—0----1 after food. 2. Valiya chandanadi thailam need to be applied to the head. Take care, Kind regards.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor with about 3 years of hands-on experience, mainly dealing with lifestyle disorders like PCOD, weight gain, diabetes, stress, and gut stuff—like bloating or weak digestion or just that feeling something’s off. I did my BAMS coz I was really drawn toward natural healing, not just the herbs part, but how everything connects—mind, food, sleep, mood... all of it. What I really try to focus on is not just giving medicine n sending people off. I like to understand what’s behind the symptoms... like why their metabolism’s slowed down or why they keep getting acidity despite eating less. That’s where my work with diet and mindset come in. I use Ayurvedic principles, yes, but I also mix it with small practical stuff—daily routines, sleep hygiene, stress release, food planning, whatever feels doable for that person. It’s not always about detoxes or strict regimens, though sometimes that helps too. Depends, really. I’ve seen good results when people actually get that they don’t need to do huge things. Just right guidance at the right time. I try to keep things light in consultation, make people feel heard, not rushed. I genuinely like when someone says “no one explained it to me like this before” — that feels nice. My whole approach is basically trying to make health feel natural again. Nothing fancy. Just rooted in the real Ayurvedic logic and a lot of listening. And yes, there’s trial and error sometimes, every case is different. But that’s what makes it kind of real. If you're dealing with any of those everyday-but-tiring health issues, I’ll do my best to figure it out with you—not just for now, but in a way that holds up longer term.

HELLO FAREED,

Insomnia means trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up too early and not feeling rested. you may feel tired during the day, emotionally low, irritable or unable to concentrate

WHY IS THIS HAPPENING? -In Ayurveda,insomnia is called anidra, and the main cause is an imbalance in vata dosha- the energy that controls movement and the nervous system.

OTHER CONTRIBUTING FACTORS -stress, worry, overthinking -irregular meal and sleep timing -excess use of phones, TV, or computers at night -excessive tea/coffee -onstipation or poor digestion -past trauma or emotional stress -underlying conditions= thyroid imbalance, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, etc

TREATMENT GOAL -calm vata dosha- bring stability and grounding -nourish the nervous system -detoxify the mind and body -establish a healthy sleep rhythm -improves digestion ad absorption

INTERNALLY START TAKING

1) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime for 3 months =reduce stress, improves sleep quality

2) BRAHMI GHRITA= 1 tsp with warm milk in morning for 2 months =mental calmness, improves memory

3) SARASWATARISHTA= 15ml with equal water twice daily after meals for 3 months =emotional balance, mild sedative

4) TAGAR CAPSULES= 1 cap 500mg at night for 4 weeks =natural sedative

5) JATAMANSI CAPSULES= 1 cap at bedtime for 3 months =calms overactive mind

EXTERNAL TREATMENT

HEAD MAASSAGE WITH JATAMANSI OR BRAHMI OIL 15-20 min before sleep =relaxes brain, cools nerves

FOOT MASSAGE= with ghee before bed =frounds and induces sleep

NASYA= instill 2 drops of ANU TAILA in each nostril in morning =Balances Vata in brain

YOGA ASANAS(hold each for 1-2 minutes, with deep breathing) -balasana= calms brain -viparita karani= relieves tiredness and anxiety -paschimittanasana= releases mental stress -supta baddha konasana= excellent for rest -Setu Bandhasana= opens chest and calms mind

PRANAYAM -Nadi sodhana= 7 mins, balances left and right brain -Bhramari= 5 mins, deeply calming -Sheetali= for excessive pitta

DIET TO BE FOLLOWED -warm, cooked meals like rice , dal, khichdi, soup, porridge -healthy fats= ghee, sesame oil, soaked almonds -milk- boiled with nutmeg, cardamom, and turmeric -sweet fruits= like banana, mango, ripe papaya -spices= cumin, fennel, ajwain, ginger small amount

AVOID -cold food or drinks, raw salads at night -stimulants- coffee, tea, chocolate especially after 2 pm -heavy fried foods, leftocers -eating late after 8 pm

HOME REMEDIES

1) NUTMEG MILK -1 pinch of nutmeg in 1 cup milk before bed =helps naturally sedate the mind(can add with ashwagandha milk)

2) WARM SESAME OIL MASSAGE -self massage, feet, and palms daily

3) SOAKED ALMONDS WITH DATES -5 almonds+ 1 dat soaked overnight - eat in morning

4) CHAMOMILE OR TULSI TEA -1 cup in evening for relaxation

LIFESTYLE CHANGES -stick to some sleep wake cycle daily -avoid daytime naps longer than 30 mins -minimize screen time at night- use blue light filter if needed -use your bedroom only for sleep -avoid news, arguments, heavy thinking before bed

-Your condition is very manageable with ayurvedic principles -long term solution needs patience and regularity, not quick fixes -you are already eating healhy- now focus on balancing vata, relaxing nervous system, and establishing a routine -use both internal and external methods -practice yoga, pranayam and mental relaxation daily

With steady lifestyle changes, herbal supports ,and self care, you can sleep better naturally without medication

Turning to Ayurveda for insomnia relief can be very helpful, especially when seeking a longer-term solution. Ayurvedic principles suggest that insomnia may result from a vitiation of Vata dosha. When Vata is imbalanced, mind-stimulating activities, irregular routines, or even excessive stress can prevent restful sleep. Focusing on strategies to calm Vata may help you fall asleep naturally.

First, consider establishing a consistent daily routine, which is key to balancing Vata. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. Limit unnecessary interactions with gadgets at night; the blue light emitted disrupts your natural sleep patterns.

Incorporating grounding foods into your diet can support Vata balance. Warm, nourishing meals like vegetable soups, sweet potatoes, and whole grains can be helpful. Try to avoid caffeine and heavy meals in the evenings. Betaking warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg or a bit of turmeric before bed might help, since these have soothing properties.

A traditional remedy is the inclusion of Ashwagandha, known for reducing stress and anxiety, thus promoting better sleep. About 300 mg of ashwagandha twice a day with water or milk can be beneficial, but consult a practitioner for personalized advice on dossage.

Practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation before sleep can also calm the mind. Abhyanga—the ancient practice of self-massage with warm sesame or almond oil—can soothe the nervous system and help prepare you for sleep.

If lifestyle adjustments don’t bring improvement, it may be wise to see an Ayurvedic practitioner who can customize a treatment plan. It’s crucial to address underlying vata imbalance & any contributing factors in a holistic way. As Ayurveda works gradually, kindly have patience along the way.

To address your insomnia, let’s consider an Ayurvedic approach that helps regulate your sleep patterns by understanding the doshas and balancing them naturally. From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, sleep disturbances often relate to vata dosha imbalance, which can disrupt nervous system functions responsible for calming the mind and body. Focusing on grounding and calming your daily routine can make a difference.

1. Establish a evening routine: Begin winding down your activities by late evening, ideally around 7 PM. Consume a light, warm dinner, avoiding heavy, spicy or oily foods. Post-dinner, engage in calming activities like reading, listening to soothing music. You may also burn a small quantity of camphor to purify and balance the energies in your space.

2. Oil massage (Abhyanga): Massage your feet with warm sesame oil before bed. The practice of abhyanga particularly focuses on relaxing the nadis and balancing vata dosha, promoting a sense of calmness and preparing the body for restful sleep.

3. Herbal suggestions: Incorporate Brahmi and Ashwagandha into your routine. Prepare a cup of Brahmi tea in the evening or take Ashwagandha as recommended by a qualified practitioner. Both aid in bringing mental tranquility and reducing stress, which is crucial for restful sleep.

4. Bedtime Yogasana & Pranayama: Engage in gentle yoga poses like Shavasana or Viparita Karani for a few minutes before bed. Follow it up with slow, deep breathing (pranayama) - specifically Anulom Vilom - which helps balance the mind’s energies and reduce restless vata.

It is crucial that you consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner in your area, who can further customize these suggestions based on your constitution and health history. If your problems persist or intensify, consider consulting a sleep specialist to rule out deeper health concerns or a need for other treatment.

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 FAREED,

In Ayurveda, insomnia is usually due to -Vata imbalance = thinking, anxiety, stress -Pitta imbalance= anger, heat, restlessness -Lifestyle issues= irregular sleep ,excessive screen time, stimulants (tea/coffee)

AYURVEDIC PLAN TO IMPROVE SLEEP

1) HERBAL REMEDIES

-TAGAR CAPSULES= 500 mg at night =natural sedative

-ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night

consistently try for 2-3 weeks

2) SLEEP MILK RECIPE Boil 1 cup milk + -a pinch of nutmeg -1 tsp Ashwagandha -drink warm before bed

3) DAILY ROUTINE -sleep and wake at fixed times (10pm-6 am ideal) -avoid mobile/computer 1 hour before sleep -no tea/coffee after 4 pm - do light stretching or yoga before bed (shavasana, bhramari pranayam mainly)

4) OIL APPLICATION -apply warm sesame oil to soles of feet and scalp before bed- calms vata and improves sleep

LIFESTYLE DISCIPLINE IS KEY Ayurveda help, but long term improvement comes with consistent sleep hygiene and stress reduction

IMPORTANT If you’ve used sleep medicines for a long time, tapering off slowly is safer. Don’t stop all at once without medical guidance.

THANK YOU

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.

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.

Dr. Kirankumari Rathod
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.

Dr. Manjula
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.
