Srilakshmi v

doctor, I've been experiencing flaky skin on my nose, side chin, and eyebrows, and I'm concerned about the dryness and white flakes. I've tried using Sebamed gel, but I'm not sure if it's the right product for my skin type.

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.

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 SRILAKSHMI L,

Chronic issue focusing on - dry skin and scalp itching - white flaky skin on face-sides of nose, chin, ear - hairfall - pigmentation post-delivery - asthma(chronic) -body itching -low appetite and gastric issues

This appears to be vata-kapha imbalance with involvement of pitta: - Vata-> dryness, roughness, hairfall, low appetite - Kapha-> white flakes, itching, sluggish digestion - Pitta-> pigmentation, post delivery hormonal changes, gastritis

INTERNAL TREATMENT

FOR DRY SKIN, SCALP -Mahatiktaka ghrita= 1 tsp with warm water on empty stomach

FOR HAIRFALL -Narayan Taila(internal use)= 10 drops with milk at night

FOR ITCHING AND SKIN ALLERGY -Haridra khanda= 1 tsp twice daily with milk in morning and night

FOR LOW APPETITE/GAS -Hingwastaka churna= 1/2 tsp before meals with warm water twice daily

FOR PIGMENTATION(MELASMA, CHLOASMA) -Mahamanjistha kashaya= 15ml with equal water twice daily after meals

FOR ASTHAMA AND IMMUNITY -Chyawanprasha= 1 tsp daily with warm milk in morning

FOR DIGESTION AND LIVER DETOX -Avipaatikar churna= 1 tsp at night with warm water

EXTERNAL TREATMENT

SKIN CARE -cleanse face with moong dal powder+ rose water - apply Kumkumadi taila at night 2-3 drops - use Nalpamram soap medicated soap

HAIR AND SCALP -weekly scalp massage with Neelibringadi taila - use shikakai+amla+reetha natural natural wash once or twice a week - avoid hot water on scalp

DIET

EAT -warm, oily, freshly cooked food - cow ghee, moong dal, red rice, cooked vegetables - ginger, cumin, fennel, ajwain - herbal teas-ginger, tulsi, cinnamon

AVOID -cold, dry, stale food - curd at night - fermented food, fried food - excessive tea/coffee - white sugar and refined flour

LIFESTYLE AND DAILY ROUTINE -oil massage with Sesame oil before bath - use lukewarm water for bath - practice Anulom Vilom and Bhramari Pranayam - avoid exposure to cold winds=asthama triggers

POST-DELIVERY RECOVERY TIPS -ensure adequate rest, nourishment, and iron rich foods - include dates, almonds, dry figs in diet -gentle yoga, daily walks, and stress management

PANCHAKARMA ADVISED -snehana+ swedana= oil massage and steam - virechana for skin detox - nasya for asthama and skin glow - shirodhara for hormonal and mental balance

Monitor your response every 3-4 weeks Skin and scalp recovery takes 6-8 weeks - hairfall may reduce in 2-3 months with consistent practice

THANK YOU

Hello srilalshmi V, Thank you for reaching out. Based on your symptoms flaky skin on the nose, side chin, and eyebrows, with dryness and white flakes this could likely be seborrheic dermatitis or facial eczema. In Ayurveda, such skin issues are often linked with Vata-Kapha imbalance, especially when the skin becomes dry, flaky, and scaly. Your history of asthma (a Vata disorder) makes your skin more prone to dryness and sensitivity

The skin on your face is shedding flakes because it’s either too dry or the oil glands are slightly inflamed. Sometimes, yeast that naturally lives on our skin (Malassezia) can cause irritation, especially around the nose and eyebrows. Using the wrong product or over-cleansing can worsen it. This is why the Sebamed gel may not have helped much it might not be enough to tackle underlying inflammation or dryness.

Treatment Plan

1. Ama Pachana (First 3–5 Days) To reduce internal toxin buildup: • Hingwashtaka Churna – ½ tsp with warm water after meals twice daily • Triphala Churna – 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water (for gentle detox)

2. Internal Medicines (From Day 4 Onwards) • Sarivadyasava – 15 ml with equal water after meals (supports skin detox) • Kaishora Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after meals (reduces inflammation and skin irritation) • Manjishtadi Kwatha – 20 ml twice daily before food (blood purifier and supports skin healing)

3. External Applications • Before bath (daily): Apply Eladi Tailam or Kumkumadi Tailam on the flaky areas. Leave for 20 minutes before washing. This helps reduce dryness and inflammation. • After cleansing (night): Use Shatadhauta Ghrita (100x washed ghee) or Aloe vera gel with 1 drop of Kumkumadi tailam on affected areas to restore skin barrier.

Avoid foaming or alcohol-based face washes. Instead, wash your face with chickpea flour + turmeric + rose water mix once daily or use a gentle non-foaming cleanser.

Diet & Lifestyle Tips • Avoid curd, heavy oily foods, and cold drinks • Drink warm water throughout the day • Apply a few drops of cow ghee to nostrils (nasya) in the morning (optional, but helpful for vata balance) • Use a humidifier at night if the air is dry

Investigations (if not done recently) • Vitamin D levels • CBC (to rule out anemia) • Thyroid profile (TSH, T3, T4) — as hypothyroid skin can also present similarly

With consistency and a gentle routine, the flakes and dryness will reduce, and your skin will regain its smooth texture. You’re already on the right path by observing and reaching out early.

Take care. Healing is possible step by step. Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

A change in the surface cells of the scalp results in a scaling or flaking.

Causes

Improper care

Not taking regular head bath

Dry scalp

1) Dhatupatradi oil for ext apply massage for 10 min on affected area 2 times a day

2) madhisnuhi rasayan-1 tsf after food 2 times with water

Diet and Lifestyle

Pathya

A little sunlight is good for your scalp and hair.

Keep calm and relaxed. It will help your hair.

A short fast is a good way to begin the program. Then begin eating only nutritious foods.

Anti-microbial shampoos are often recommended, but there is no evidence that this germkilling factor lessens the dandruff.

To help control appearance, cleanse with a shampoo, designed to help control dandruff. Wash the hair in vinegar, to remove all the loose scales.

Apathya

Shampoos containing selenium sulfide can cause eye damage and hairloss.

Plain water alone is also good.

Reduce intake of fats, grease, and all fried foods from the diet. Stop the use of alcohol. Check to see if you have food allergies (wheat, dairy products, citrus, or something else).

Avoid stress and poor elimination. Do not use strong, irritant shampoos or hair treatments.

Avoid chocolate, sugar, white flour, and seafood.

HELLO SRILAKSHMI V,

You are experiencing a combination of symptoms -dry , flaky skin on face(around nose, chin), and inside ears dryness and white flakes -facial pigmentation -chronic asthama - overall body dryness

All of these issues are connected. In Ayurveda, this is mainly due to imbalance in vata and pitta doshas, with some involvement of kapha in asthma.

VATA DOSHA IMBALANCE -dryness, rough skin, -gas, constipation, variable appetite - insomnia or poor sleep - nervous system sensitivity - excess movement in body and min

PITTA DOSHA IMBALANCE -skin pigmentation -burning or inflammation -heat in digestion - emotional irritation or anger

KAPHA DOSHA -in Asthama, mucus accumulation in lungs - blockages, heaviness, sluggish digestion

So we are seeing a vata-pitta aggravation with chronic kapha influence in lungs

TREATMENT GOALS

1) BALANCE VATA= reduce dryness, itching 2) CALM PITTA= reduce pigmentation, inflammation 3) SUPPORT KAPHA IN LUNGS= manage asthama gently 4) IMPROVES DIGESTION= key to all healing 5) NOURISH SKIN AND HAIR from within and outside 6) BUILD OJAS= to prevent recurrence

INTERNAL TREATMENT

* FOR SKIN AND PIGMENTATION

1) KHADIRASTISHTA= 15ml with equal water after meals twice daily

2) MAHAMANJISTHADI GHANVATI= 1 tab thrice daily after meals

3) GANDHAK RASAYANA= 1 tab twice daily after meals

4) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals helps liver and pigmentation

* FOR ASHTAMA 1) SHITOPALADI CHURNA + TALISADI CHURNA + YASHTIMADHU CHURNA= mix equal part, take 1 tsp with honey daily in morning and night (very effective for asthama)

YOGA ASANA -Adho much svanasana(downward dog)= increases scalp blood flow -Sarvangasana= stimulates thyroid, nourishes head region -Shirshasana= direct blood flow to scalp -Ustrasana, Matsyasana= opens up chest and throat, affects hormonal balance

PRANAYAM -Bhramari= calms mind, improves oxygen to hair roots -Anulom vilom= balances vata- pitta -Sheetali/sheetkari= pitta shamak

MEDITATION -daily 15 mins of Trataka(candle gazing)+ Dhyana can help hormonal and mental factors

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

APPLY 2-3 TIMES/WEEK 1) sandalwood+ rose water pack -For cooling and reducing tan -mix 1 tsp sandalwood with rose water apply for 20 mins

2) LICORICE POWDER+ MILK -ligthens dark spots and pigmentation -use as a mask for 15-20 mins

3) TURMERIC + GRAM FLOUR + YOGURT. PASTE -traditional ubtan for tan removal = brightens complexion with regular use.

4) ALOE VERA GEL+ SANDALWOOD POWDER -use at night, soothe skin.

5) KUMKUMADI TAILA - apply 2-3 drops at night = hyperpigmentation

6) NALPAMRADI TAILA= whole body massage 30 mins before bath

FOR EARS -apply ELADI KERAM or warm COCONUT OIL with a cotton bud for dryness

NATURAL HOME REMEDIES -soaked almonds(5) + black raisins(10) = every morning -aloe vera juice(10ml)= empty stomach for skin and digestion -turmeric+ honey= ½ tsp turmeric in 1 tsp honey daily for immunity - triphala churna= 1 tsp with warm water at night for detox and bowel -keep scalp and skin moisturised regularly - use chemical free shampoo -sleep 7-8 hrs and avoid screen time at night - reduce stress, which can worsen vata and skin issues - avoid exposure to dry air, AC, cold wind

Hi Srilakakshmi, Your condition may be due to seborrheic dermatitis. This typically affects areas rich in oil glands like nose, ears, eyebrows, scalp. White or yellow flakes, redness, mild itch or burning can be seen.

1. Doorvadi + Eladi kera tailam for external application. (for 2 weeks). Once the flakiness subsides and normal skin is visible, apply only Eladi Kera Tailam.

2. Eladi cream can be used as a moisturizer.

3. Khadirarishtam 10ml twice daily after food. 4. Krimighna vati 2-0-2 after food. (for 1 month). Above medication is to purify blood.

Flaky skin you’re experiencing could be due to imbalances in the doshas, primarily Vata, which governs dryness and roughness in the body. In Ayurveda, dry, flaky skin often links to Vata imbalance, possibly exacerbated by diet, climate, or even emotional stress. Skin conditions like eczema or dermatitis may also present similarly, but a deeper understanding of your life patterns and diet is necessary to pinpoint the exact cause.

Firstly, address your diet to pacify Vata. Increase intake of warm, moist, and nourishing foods like ghee, olive oil, and stews. Avoid dry and cold foods which might aggravate the dryness. Try to incorporate spices like ginger, cumin, and turmeric in your meals to balance your Agni, the digestive fire. Drinking warm water throughout the day can support hydration and remove toxins.

External application is also crucial. Instead of Sebamed gel, which might be too harsh for your constitution, consider using pure, cold-pressed sesame oil or coconut oil. Apply gently onto the affected areas after washing your face with a mild, prana-rich cleanser in lukewarm water. Let the oil sit for at least 20 minutes before rinsing off.

Avoid using skincare products containing harsh chemicals. Choose herbal and natural-based remedies, containing aloe vera or sandalwood, which are good for soothing and moisturizing the skin naturally.

Additionally, practice regular self-abhyanga, an Ayurvedic self-massage, which can be done using warm sesame oil. This helps not just your skin, but also calms the nervous system, an important aspect for Vata balancing. 10-15 minutes on a daily basis before showering would be optimal.

Make it a habit to manage stress through practices like yoga or meditation as emotional balance is key to Doshic balance. If symptoms persist, it might be wise to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner in person to tailor treatment further.

Flaky skin on the nose, chin, and eyebrows often relates to imbalances in the body’s Vata dosha. This dryness is typically due to an excess of Vata, leading to dehydration of the skin and accumulation of dry, flaky cells. The main roots in such situations lie in diet and lifestyle factors that exacerbate Vata, such as cold and dry climates, windy environments, or a diet high in dry and light foods.

To address this, first, embrace a Vata-pacifying diet. Incorporate warm, oily, and nourishing foods—think soups, stews, and cooked grains. Cooking with ghee can support the body’s moisture levels. You may also want to include herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari, balancing Vata by promoting tissue hydration and skin health.

For topical care, apply a gentle, natural oil like sesame or almond oil to the affected areas daily. Massage the oils in gently to enhance absorption and improve circulation. Avoid hot water on the face, as it can further strip the skin of its oils.

Engage in a regular abhyanga, or self-oil massage, using warm sesame oil, before bathing to nourish the skin. Hydrate well throughout the day with warm water or herbal teas such as ginger or fennel.

If after a consistent routine, these methods don’t bring relief, see a healthcare provider. Sometimes conditions like seborrheic dermatitis need precise medical interventions. Meanwhile, simplify skincare by avoiding harsh products and ensuring anything applied is both soothing and non-irritating.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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.

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. 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. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.
