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 SELVARAJ,

HOW TO NORMALIZE THYROID

-STRICTLY TAKE LEVOTHYROXINE DAILY= empty stomach, 30-60 min before breakfast , same time daily

-DO NOT MISS DOSES= missing doses even once a week can destabilise thyroid function

-REGULAR FOLLOW UP= test TSH/T3/T4 every 2-3 months until stable

-AVOID INTERACTING SUBSTANCES= no calcium/iron supplements within 4 hours of taking thyronorm

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT(supportive)

MORNING -THYROGRIT TAB- 1 tab after breakfast

AFTERNOON -STRESSCOM - 1 cap after lunch with milk

AFTER LUNCH AND DINNER -PUNARNAVA MANDUR- 1 tab with warm water

NIGHT -MENTAT TAB= 1 tab with warm milk

AYURVEDIC LIFESTYLE TO FOLLOW

WAKE EARLY-before 7 am= regulates Ricardian rhythm , supports thyroid-adrenal axis

OIL MASSAGE- daily with warm sesame oil-improves metabolism and vata balance

GENTLE YOGA AND PRANAYAM= improves endocrine function. focus on asana like sarvangasana, matsyasana, and breathing exercise

AVOID COLD/RAW FOODS= favour warm, cooked, spiced meals- ginger, cumin, cinnamon

REDUCE STRESS= chronic stress affects thyroid hormone conversion(t4->t3). practice meditation daily

AVOID -skipping medications -raw cruciferous vegetables like cabbage , cauliflower, broccoli etc in large amount - overuse of soy products

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

Hello, Thank you for sharing your concern. Based on your details, you are diagnosed with thyroid dysfunction, likely hypothyroidism (as you are taking levothyroxine), but your symptoms becoming thin, disturbed sleep, no typical fatigue suggest a fluctuating thyroid state or possibly a borderline or post-pregnancy thyroiditis phase rather than classic hypothyroidism. Also, low hemoglobin since childhood can worsen hormonal balance and energy levels.

After pregnancy, many women experience postpartum thyroid imbalance. In Ayurveda, this is related to Agnimandya (weakened metabolism), Rasa-Rakta Dhatu Kshaya (low blood and plasma nourishment), and Vata-Pitta imbalance. Continuous use of synthetic hormones like levothyroxine doesn’t correct the root imbalance it just replaces what the body isn’t producing well. The goal in Ayurveda is to stimulate your thyroid gland, support blood production, and correct metabolism from within.

Treatment Plan

Step 1: Ama Pachana (First 5 Days) To clear underlying toxins affecting thyroid and metabolism • Hingvashtaka Churna – ½ tsp with warm water after food twice daily • Trikatu Churna – ¼ tsp with honey and lukewarm water before breakfast and dinner

Step 2: Internal Medicines (Start after 5 days and continue for 3–6 months) 1. Kanchanara Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food (supports thyroid gland function) 2. Ashwagandha Churna – 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime (restores sleep, regulates hormones) 3. Punarnavadi Mandura – 2 tablets twice daily after meals (for anemia and swelling) 4. Brahmi Vati – 1 tablet at night with water (for stress, mood and hormonal balance)

Step 3: Diet & Lifestyle • Include cooked drumstick leaves, beetroot, dates, sesame seeds, and black raisins • Use ghee in food — helps in nourishing the dhatus • Avoid raw cabbage, cauliflower, soya — suppress thyroid • Practice Nadi Shodhana and Bhramari Pranayama daily • Sleep before 10:30 pm and wake by 6 am

Investigations to Monitor • Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4) – every 3 months • Serum Ferritin + CBC – for anemia status • Vitamin D3, B12 – rule out hidden deficiencies • Anti-TPO Antibodies – to check autoimmune thyroiditis

Note-Do not stop levothyroxine abruptly. Ayurvedic treatment supports the gland to recover and possibly reduce dependency gradually under doctor’s monitoring. Once TSH stabilizes and stays normal, tapering may be considered.

Your healing is possible. The thyroid is sensitive to stress, food, and even emotions stay calm, be consistent, and let the body respond slowly and steadily.

Take care, Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Aww, thank you, doctor, for your valuable advice and time in responding to me. I’m in Sri Lanka, so that I couldn’t buy these products. maybe available with different names.

hey hi , no worries I have googled some outlets for you and here is what I have found u can check it out ! 1. Hingvashtaka Churna In Sri Lanka, you can look for Hingwadi Churna or any digestive churna that includes hing (asafoetida), trikatu (pepper, ginger, long pepper), and ajwain. Siddhalepa and Ayurvedic Osu Sala may have this. 2. Trikatu Churna Ask for Trikatu powder, a common formulation made from black pepper (maricha), long pepper (pippali), and dry ginger (shunthi). This is usually available under the same name in Sri Lankan Ayurvedic shops.

3. Kanchanara Guggulu You can ask for a guggulu formulation with kanchanara (Bauhinia variegata). Even if the name is different, many Sri Lankan doctors prescribe similar formulations for thyroid support. Ayurveda Osu Sala may stock this.

4. Ashwagandha Churna Widely available in Sri Lanka as Withania somnifera powder or capsules. Brands like Siddhalepa and Hettigoda offer Ashwagandha-based supplements.

5. Punarnavadi Mandura This is a classical iron-rich formulation. Look for Punarnava-based herbal iron tonics or tablets. Ask for an anemia-supporting formulation at local Ayurvedic pharmacies.

6. Brahmi Vati Look for Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) capsules, syrup, or granules. In Sri Lanka, products like “Brahmi Plus” by Link Natural are available and serve the same purpose for calming the mind and supporting the nervous system.

Where to Buy in Sri Lanka: Ayurveda Osu Sala – government-run outlets with classical medicines. Siddhalepa stores – widely present across Sri Lanka. Hettigoda Industries – their own stores or distributors. Link Natural Products – available in pharmacies or online (local). Baraka Naturals – some herbal capsules and oils are widely sold.

HELLO SELVARAJ VINOSHA,

You have hypothyroidism, which means your thyroid gland is underachieve and does not produce enough thyroid hormone (T3,T4). These symptoms are essential for -metabolism (energy production in cells) -menstrual health -mental clarity -mood regulation -heart rate -digestion -hair and skin health

Your thyroid problem started after pregnancy , which suggests postpartum thyroiditis- a condition where immune or hormonal changes after delivery disturb thyroid function.

BUT YOU DON’T HAVE HYPO SYMPTOMS? you mentioned -you are thin, not gaining weight -you have sleep disturbances -you’ve had low hemoglobin since childhood

These are not classic signs of hypothyroidism (which usually causes weight gain, cold intolerance, fatigue). So, there could be

1) OVERMEDICATION If your body is getting too much levothyroxine, you may might feel more hyperthyroid- like fast metabolism, poor sleep, weight loss.

WHAT TO DO-> Re-check TSH, free T3, free T4 to ensure you’re on the right dose.

In Ayurveda, your case seems to involve:

1) AGNI DUSHTI (Impaired metabolism) -Agni= digestive and metabolic fire -improper agni leads to Ama (toxin accumulation) and poor tissue(dhatu) nourishment.

2) VATA DOMINANACE -your sleep issues, thinness, and long standing anemia indicate excess vata dosha.

3) PANDU ROGA (Ayurvedic anemia) -since childhood, your hemoglobin is low-> affecting Rakta dhatus and Ojas (vital immunity)

4) THYROID= DYSFUNCTION OF RASADHATU + AGNI -the thyroid gland relates to Rasa (first tissue from food) and Agni (digestive fire) -If the first transformation itself is weak, hormone production is affected

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT GOALS 1) normalise thyroid 2)improve blood 3)calm the mind and improve sleep 4)improve digestion and nutrient absorption 5)reduce medication dependence over time (if possible)

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

**FOR THYROID BALANCE -KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months

** FOR HORMONE ADAPTOGEN + SLEEP -ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night for long term

** FOR ANEMIA AND BLOOD BUILDING -PUNARNAVA MANDUR= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3 months

** FOR MIND CALMING -SHANKHAPUSHPI SYRUP= 2 tsp before bed for 2 months

** FOR RASAYANA/IMMUNITY -CHYAWANPRASHA= 1 tsp in morning with warm water for 6 months

EXTERNAL AYURVEDIC THERAPIES

-OIL MASSAGE= WITH MAHANARAYAN TAILA = daily or alternate days, that calm vata, improve circulation

-NASYA= instill 2 drops of Anu taila in each nostril daily morning =balances hormones via pituitary access

DIET TO BE FOLLOWED

FOCUS ON -warm, fresh, lightly spiced foods - easy to digest , nourishing meals -iron rich plant foods

INCLUDE -cooked leafy greens palak, moringa -ghee small amounts - improves digestive fire, supports hormones - dates, figs, sesame seeds= rich in iron - mung dal khihdi- soothing, nourishing -jeera, ajwain, ginger, turmeric, black pepper- improves digestion.

AVOID -cold, stale, or refrigerated foods -overuse of dairy - can increase kapha - processed sugar and fried snacks - excess caffeine (worsens vata and sleep)

LIFESTYLE -wake before 7 AM, sleep by 10-10:30 PM - avoid daytime sleep increases kapha -oil massage weekly - keep a consistent daily routine vata balancing

YOGA ASANA Practice gently for 15-30 mins/day -Sarvangasana= stimulates thyroid gland -Matsyasana= balances hormones -Bhujangasana= stimulates adrenal and thyroid function -Setubandhasana= supports sleep, reduces anxiety

avoid vigorous practice. Move slowly and mindfully

PRANAYAM -Nadi sodhana= balances left/right brain and hormones -Bhramari= deeply calming, improves sleep -Ujjayi= gentle throat breathing, stimulates thyroid area

HOME REMEDIES

1) JEERA-CORIANDER-FENNEL WATER -1 tsp each in 1L water, boil, sip warm throughout the day.

2) ROASTED AJWAIN + JAGGERY -mix ajwain with jaggery , eat 1 tsp after lunch/dinner - helps digestion, anemia

3) BLACK SESAME BALLS -mix black sesame powder , jaggery, ghee- roll into balls. 1 daily

4) ASHWAGANDHA + WARM MILK. AT night improves sleep and reduces vata.

-Thyroid conditions can often be managed, supported, and sometimes improved using Ayurveda, especially in non-autoimmune or postpartum cases -Do not suddenly stop Levothyroxine. -With proper diet, Ayurvedic medicines, and yoga patients reduce their dependency on thyroid pills -The goal is not just stopping medicine but achieving balance and health at the root level-metabolism, hormones, digestion and mind.

DO FOLLOW THIS CONSISTENTLY FOR 3 MONTHS

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Thyroid function can be influenced by various factors, including hormonal changes around pregnancy. In Ayurveda, balancing the doshas plays a key role in managing such conditions. It’s possible that your condition points towards a Vata imbalance, as indicated by symptoms like weightloss and sleep disturbances. Ayurvedic approach can help support your thyroid health alongside conventional treatment.

Firstly, optimizing your diet is crucial. Incorporate warm, cooked foods easily digested, such as soups or stews. Ghee can be helpful for balancing Vata; try a spoonful in cooking daily. Avoid raw, cold foods, and minimize caffeine, which can aggravate Vata. Add spices like cumin, coriander, and ginger into your meals to support digestion.

As for herbal support, Ashwagandha might be beneficial. It can help balance the thyroid and reduce stress. Typically taken as milk decoction—boil 1 teaspoon of Ashwagandha powder in a cup of milk, consume this regularly in the evening. However, this should be done under guidance of an Ayurvedic practitioners to ensure the right dosage for your body type.

Along with dietary changes, breathe techniques like Pranayama, specifically Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), can help calm the mind and body. Practice daily for about 10-15 minutes to help balance your doshas.

Low hemoglobin reflect low Ojas, the essence of all tissues, imperative for vitality. Consider including iron-rich foods like pomegranate, dates, raisins, and beetroot regularly. A herbal preparation like Punarnava Mandur can be considered. But again, proper consultation with a practitioner is vital.

These recommendations should complement your ongoing treatment, not replace it. Regular follow-ups with your doctor are important to monitor thyroid levels. In any case of concerning symptoms, professional medical advice would be necessary. Always discuss any herbal regimen with your healthcare provider to avoid potential interactions with prescribed medications.

To address thyroid imbalances, especially post-pregnancy, and improve your overall health, integrating Siddha-Ayurvedic practices can be beneficial alongside regular medical supervision. It’s crucial not to stop or reduce your levothyroxine medication without consulting your healthcare provider, as thyroid hormone regulation requires careful handling.

For Ayurvedic support, consider focusing on balancing your doshas, which involve understanding your individual prakriti or constitution. Thinness and sleep disturbances suggest a potential vata imbalance, which might influence your thyroid function. To help balance vata, include warming, grounding foods like root vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats (ghee or sesame oil) in your diet.

Improving agni, or digestive fire, is essential. Start your day with a small piece of ginger with a pinch of rock salt to stimulate digestion. Herbal formulations like Kanchanar Guggulu or Ashwagandha can support thyroid health, but these should only be taken under the guidance of a qualified practitioner to ensure they suit your constitution and do not interfere with current medications.

For low hemoglobin levels, incorporating iron-rich foods like beetroot, pomegranate, or dark leafy greens can be supportive along with vitamin C-rich foods to enhance absorption. Regular pranayama (breathing exercises) like nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) may help reduce stress and support hormonal balance, as stress can exacerbate thyroid issues.

Considering your sleep disturbances, establish a calming nighttime routine. Avoid screens at least an hour before bed, and try warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg for better sleep. Ensure ongoing discussions with your doctor to verify these measures do not interfere with your medical plan, and keep monitoring thyroid levels as advised.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

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. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

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.
