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 PRASATH,

Gastric issues like bloating, indigestion, and irregular bowelmovements can feel overwhelming, especially when they affect your daily life and peace of mind.

Your symptoms suggest an imbalance in vata (gas, dryness) and pitta (acidity, inflammation). Digestion is governed by Agni (digestive fire). When Agni is weak or disturbed , toxins (ama) build up, leading to bloating, gas, and indigestion

1) DAILY ROUTINE -wake up early 7 am -drink warm water with a pinch of hing, and ajwain. -avoid sleeping late and reduce screen time

2) DIET -eat warm, cooked , light meals -avoid raw, cold, or oily foods -eat at regular times -avoid= milk + fruit, curd at night, carbonated drinks, fried foods

FAVOUR -jeera water -buttermilk with rock salt and roasted jeera -methi seeds soaked overnight -soft khichdi with ghee

MEDICATIONS

1) TRIPHALA= 1 tsp t bedtime with warm water =regulates bowels, detox

2) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water before meals =reduces bloating, improves digestion

3) AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1/2 tsp after meals with warm water =reduces acidity

4) AJAMODADI CHURNA= after food 1/2 tsp with warm water =gas, colic

HYDRATION -sip warm water throughout the day -avoid ice cold drinks

YOGA AND LIFESTYLE

YOGA ASANA= pawanmuktasana, vajrasana after meals, ardha matsyendrasana

BREATHING= anulom-vilom, kapalbhati (if not too weak or inflamed)

AVOID STRESS- it’s a big trigger for gut issues

-If constipation is chronic, consider mild castor oil- 1 tsp in warm milk at bedtime once a week

-If weight gain is a concern, focus on balancing agni not crash diets

-Avoid long gaps between meals or overeating

SIMPLE DIET PLAN

MORNING= warm water + triphala BREAKFAST= moong dal dosa/ IDLI and take jeera water LUNCH= khichdi + ghee + cooked veggies + buttermilk EVENING= herbal tea cumin - fennel DINNER= light soup + rice + veggies BEDTIME= triphala or warm milk with turmeric

You’re only 23- your body has great healing powder if supported naturally. Be consistent, stay calm, and follow this plan for 21 days.

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

​Ayurveda views bloating and gastric issues as a sign of an imbalance in the body, primarily related to the Vata dosha (the air and space element). When Vata is aggravated in the digestive tract, it can lead to the accumulation of gas, causing discomfort and bloating.

​Ayurveda offers a holistic approach to address this, focusing on diet, lifestyle, and herbal remedies to restore balance and improve digestion.

​Dietary Adjustments ​Ayurveda places great emphasis on mindful eating and a diet that supports Agni (the digestive fire).

​Favor Warm and Cooked Foods: Cold, raw foods, and iced beverages can weaken Agni. Opt for warm, freshly cooked meals like soups, stews, and steamed vegetables.

​Include Digestive Spices: Spices are key to kindling Agni. Incorporate carminative spices like ginger, cumin, coriander, fennel, asafoetida (hing), and turmeric into your cooking.

​Avoid Gas-Forming Foods: Reduce or avoid foods known to cause gas, such as beans, cruciferous vegetables (cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower), and carbonated drinks.

​Mindful Eating: Chew your food thoroughly and eat in a calm, peaceful environment. Avoid overeating and eating on the run.
​Proper Hydration: Sip on warm water or herbal teas throughout the day. Avoid drinking large amounts of water with meals as it can dilute digestive enzymes.
​Herbal Remedies

​Several Ayurvedic herbs and formulations are traditionally used to relieve gas and bloating:

​Ginger: Known for its digestive properties, ginger can be consumed as a tea or added to meals. Dry ginger (Shunthi) is often considered more potent for Vata imbalances.

​Fennel Seeds (Saunf): Chewing a teaspoon of roasted fennel seeds after a meal is a common practice to aid digestion and prevent gas. Fennel tea can also be very effective.

​Cumin Seeds (Jeera): Cumin water or tea is an excellent remedy. Boil cumin seeds in water, strain, and drink to reduce bloating.
​Asafoetida (Hing): This pungent spice is a powerful carminative. A pinch of hing mixed with warm water can provide quick relief. It’s also a staple in dishes that are known to cause gas, like lentils and beans.

​Triphala: A blend of three fruits (Amla, Haritaki, and Bibhitaki), Triphala helps to cleanse the digestive tract and promote healthy bowel movements, which can prevent gas buildup.

​Trikatu: A combination of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper, Trikatu helps to stimulate digestion and reduce gas.
​Lifestyle Practices

​Regular Exercise: Moderate physical activity, such as walking or yoga, can help improve digestion and encourage the movement of gas through the digestive tract.

​Stress Management: Stress can aggravate Vata and lead to digestive issues. Practices like meditation, deep breathing exercises, and gentle yoga can help calm the mind and support digestive health.

​Abdominal Massage: Gently massaging the abdomen in a clockwise direction with warm sesame or castor oil can help stimulate digestion and alleviate discomfort from trapped gas.

Treatment

1) hinguvastaka churna 2 gm 1 hr before food with ghee and warm water 3 times

2) maha shankha vati - before food 3 times with warm water

You are 23, and you are experiencing - bloating (stomach feels full , tight, and sometimes painful) -Indigestion (food feels heavy, sometimes belching or nausea) -Irregular bowel movements (either constipation or loose stools) -weight gain(especially around the abdomen)

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN THE BODY -In Ayurveda, your digestive fire is weak or imbalanced -Vata dosha imbalance-> gas, bloating, constipation, irregular stool -Kapha dosha imbalance-> heaviness, weight gain, slow digestion -Pitta may also be mildly involved if you feel acidity or mild burning

WHY IT’S IMPORTANT TO TREAT NOW -If left unmanaged, chronic digestive issues can affect energy, immunity, metabolism, and even mental health -Early management prevents long-term complications like metabolic disorders, chronic constipation, or IBS

TREATMENT GOALS -improve digestive fire-> better digestion and nutrient absorption -reduce bloating and gas-> balance vata -normalize bowel movements-> regular stool without pain and urgency -reduce weight naturally-> balance kapha -detoxify and remove ama(toxins)-> improve energy and metabolism -strengthen overall digestive health-> prevent recurrence

-AMLA= 1 tsp with warm water in morning for 1 month =improves digestion and immunity, mild laxative

EXTERNAL TREATMENTS

1) ABDOMINAL MASSAGE= warm sesame oil -gentle clockwise massage 15 min, 2-3 times/week -improves digestion, reduces gas, stimulates metabolism

2) HOT WATER BAG ON ABDOMEN AFTER MASSAGE =helps relax intestinal muscles and reduce bloating

LIFESTYLE MANAGEMENT IMPORTANT FOR RECOVERY -regular exercise= walking, cycling, light jogging -Avoid sedentry habits= sitting long hours worsens vata and kapha imbalance -stress management= yoga, meditation, pranayam -sleep hygiene= 7-8 hours, avoid late night meals

YOGA ASANAS -Pawanmuktasana= relieves bloating -Vajrasana= improves digestion after meals -Bhujangasana= stimulates abdominal organs -Trikonasana/ Ardha matsyendrasana= reduces gas and constipaion

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= reduces stress, balance vata -Kapalbhati= stimulate digestive fire -Bhramari= reduces stress, improves gut-brain axis

DIET -warm, cooked foods -rice, dal, khichdi, soups -ginger, cumin, fennel, coriander in food -papaya, pomegranate , apple peeled -llight, easy-to-digest proteins -moong dal, lentils

AVOID -cold drinks, ice, carbonated drinks -fried, oily, heavy foods -excess sweets, refined flour -raw vegetables if causing bloating

Gastric issues, like bloating and indigestion, may be linked to an imbalance in your doshas, primarily Vata and Pitta, and the status of your digestive fire, or Agni. A few practical steps can be taken to help. First, your diet should be easy-to-digest, favour warm, cooked foods, soups, and stews. Minimize raw, cold, and hard-to-digest foods. Focus on having your meals at regular intervals, perhaps every 4-5 hours, without snacking in between. Try to include spices like cumin, coriander, and fennel in your cooking — they can enhance digestion and reduce bloating.

Start your day by drinking warm water with a few drops of fresh lemon juice. This may help to clear stagnation and stimulate digestion. Using ginger tea about 30 minutes before meals often supports Agni and alleviates bloating. When it comes to addressing motion issues, regularity can be key. Incorporating fiber-rich foods, simply like cooked spinach or stewed prunes, can improve bowel movements. Ghee (clarified butter) taken with warm milk at bedtime may aid in smooth bowel movement and balance Vata dosha.

Weight gain, could be thwarted with regular exercise; walking or yoga can be beneficial. Make sure to maintain a disciplined lifestyle, waking up and sleeping at a similar time daily. Activities such as Pranayama can have profound effects on stress and digestive health.

Avoid habits like late-night eating or consuming heavy meals before bed. Try to eat the heaviest meal at lunchtime, when Agni is strongest. Keeping check on processed foods, sweets and excessive dairy might also assist in achieving balance. If symptoms continue or worsen, seek a professional medical evaluation.

For your concerns of bloating, indigestion, and other digestive problems at such a young age, let’s focus on understanding the root cause from a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective. These symptoms often hint at an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which governs movement within the body, and can also involve Pitta if there’s acidity or heat-related discomfort. Here’s some practical advice you can follow:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Begin by eating warm, cooked meals that are easy to digest - avoid raw, cold foods and drinks. Include ginger and cumin in your meals to stimulate Agni (digestive fire) and help with digestion. Stay away from processed foods, fizzy drinks, and excessive sugar, which can disturb the digestive process.

2. Eating Habits: Eat at regular intervals - not too late at night. Chew your food thoroughly and eat mindfully without distractions. Drinking warm water throughout the day can help maintain digestive functions.

3. Herbal Formulations: Consider using trikatu, a formulation of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger. It aids digestion and reduces bloating. However, consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for appropriate dosing, especially if you have any concurrent conditions.

4. Lifestyle Modifications: Engage in regular physical activities like yoga or brisk walking to encourage proper digestion and metabolism. Practicing pranayama (breath control exercises) can help balance Vata and settle your digestive system too.

5. Sleep Routine: Ensure you’re getting adequate rest, align with natural body rhythms by sleeping early, and waking with the sunrise.

6. Medical Attention: If symptoms persist or include severe pain or rapid weight changes, seek medical attention. This could indicate a more serious condition requiring immediate care.

Focus on consistency and gentle shifts in your lifestyle for sustainable healing. This approach respects the body’s natural balance and gently encourages restoration without extreme interventions.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

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. 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. 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.

I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.

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. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

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. 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. 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. 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.
