Dr. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

Dr. Khushboo
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with a diverse foundation in both modern and traditional systems of medicine. My journey began with six months of hands-on experience in allopathic medicine at District Hospital Sitapur, where I was exposed to acute and chronic care in a high-volume clinical setting. This experience strengthened my diagnostic skills and deepened my understanding of patient care in an allopathic framework. Complementing this, I have also completed six months of clinical training in Ayurveda and Panchakarma, focusing on natural detoxification and rejuvenation therapies. During this time, I gained practical experience in classical Ayurvedic treatments, including Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara, and other Panchakarma modalities. I strongly believe in a patient-centric approach that blends the wisdom of Ayurveda with the clinical precision of modern medicine for optimal outcomes. Additionally, I hold certification in Garbha Sanskar, a specialized Ayurvedic discipline aimed at promoting holistic wellness during pregnancy. I am passionate about supporting maternal health and fetal development through time-tested Ayurvedic practices, dietary guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. My approach to healthcare emphasizes balance, preventive care, and customized wellness plans tailored to each individual’s constitution and health goals. I aim to create a nurturing space where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their healing journey. Whether treating seasonal imbalances, supporting women’s health, or guiding patients through Panchakarma therapies, I am committed to delivering care that is rooted in tradition and guided by compassion.

hello kishor kumar ,

i understand how frustrating it must feel to constantly deal with acid reflux, indigestion, gas, burning in your throat after meals, and constipation. When this happens frequently, it not only makes eating uncomfortable but also affects your energy and mood. In Ayurveda, these symptoms often occur due to weak digestive fire (Agni), accumulation of toxins (Ama), and imbalance in Pitta and Vata doshas. When digestion is weak, food is not properly broken down, leading to heaviness, gas, burning sensations, and constipation. The fact that medicines haven’t helped so far suggests that your system needs a deeper reset rather than just symptomatic relief.

Before starting treatment, I’d like to understand your bowel patterns (frequency, consistency), appetite, sleep, and any stress or lifestyle factors, as these guide how we personalize treatment for you.

Treatment Plan: 1. Ama Pachana (Detox & Digestive Support): Triphala Churna: 3g with warm water at night, 5–7 days – to gently clear accumulated toxins and improve bowel movement.

2. Internal Medicines (after Ama Pachana): Khadiraarishtam: 15–20 ml with equal water after meals, twice daily – helps reduce acidity and gas. SNA Shankhpushpi Syrup: 10 ml with water, twice daily – calms digestion and mind, reduces stress-induced acidity. Avipattikar Churna: 3–5g with warm water at night (if constipation and heaviness are prominent) – balances Pitta and relieves burning.

3. Lifestyle & Diet Recommendations: Eat small, frequent, warm, and cooked meals; avoid cold, oily, or spicy foods.

Include khichdi, dal, lightly cooked vegetables, rice, and soups. Avoid heavy fried foods, aerated drinks, and excess sweets. Drink warm water throughout the day; do not lie down immediately after meals. Gentle walking for 15–20 minutes after meals helps digestion. Avoid stress during meals; eat slowly and mindfully.

4. Investigations (if needed): Complete blood count, liver function test Upper GI endoscopy if symptoms persist or worsen Stool examination to rule out infections

5. Monitoring: Keep track of bowel movements, bloating, appetite, and sleep. Note if burning, gas, or heaviness improves with treatment.

Do’s & Don’ts: Follow medicine timings consistently. Eat warm, light meals and avoid overeating. Stay hydrated and walk after meals. Avoid cold drinks, fried foods, and late-night heavy meals. Practice deep breathing or gentle yoga to reduce stress.

Review your progress after 10–15 days of starting treatment. Adjust medicines based on improvement in digestion and reduction in acidity.

With consistent care, this approach can balance digestion, reduce acidity, relieve gas, and improve bowel regularity naturally. Patience and consistency are key.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

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.

Pechan ke sambandh me jo samasya aap saman karke rahe hain, wo aksar dosho ki ashanti ke karan hoti hai, khasa kar Pitta aur Vata. Pehle to, aap khana khaan se pehle kuch chize tyaag den jisase aapke symptoms aur bhi bigad sakte hain. Yeh include karte hain bahut teekha aur tel bharpoor anna, canned aur processed food, aur caffeine ya carbonated drinks. Thande paani aur thande khane se bhi bache.

Indigestion aur gale me jalan ko kam karne ke liye, aadhe chamach jeera aur saunf ko ek cup pani me ubal lein, is paani ko khana khaan ke baad dhire-dhire se piye. Yeh aapke agni (digestive fire) ko prakarshit karke aapke gas aur pet me bhari pan ko kam kar sakta he. Din me do se teen baar iss drink ka istemaal karein.

Constipation ke liye, dho chamach ghee ko ek glass garam doodh ke sath raat me peene se labh mil sakta hai. Yeh aapki vata dosha ko balance karte hue, aapke mala-stotra ko uchit rup se prakshipt kar deta hai. Yadi yeh samasya adik sthal hai, toh aap castor oil ka istemaal bhi soch sakte hain jo ki dosha ko balance karne aur excretion mein madad karta hai.

Larger diet ko sahaj banane ke liye, nashte ke samay par, lightly cooked bhaari sabzian aur easily digestive grains jaise ki basmati chawal ka consumption kare. Nariyal paani aur sabza seeds jaise hydrating aur cooling padarth ka bhi samavesh karein aapne meal plan mein.

Stress management bhi zaroori hai kyuki yeh Pitta aur Vata donon ko aggravate kar sakta hai, to daily yog aur pranayama aapke liye faydemand ho sakta hai. Yadi upayog manzuri nahi aata, toh inme alteration jarur karein, samasya jari rahne par kisi Ayurvedic physician se vishesh salah le.

HELLO ,

-1. स्थिति जानना आयुर्वेद में आपकी शिकायतों का वर्णन इस प्रकार किया गया है: -अम्लपित्त: जब आपकी पाचक अग्नि (अग्नि) कमजोर या अनियमित होती है, तो भोजन ठीक से पच नहीं पाता। इसके परिणामस्वरूप आम (विषाक्त अपचित पदार्थ) + अधिक पित्त (गर्मी) उत्पन्न होता है। ये दोनों मिलकर गले में जलन, खट्टी डकारें, भारीपन और एसिड रिफ्लक्स उत्पन्न करते हैं। -विबंध (कब्ज): अपान वात के बढ़ने के कारण मल का सुचारू रूप से न निकलना → पेट फूलना, भारीपन, गैस। दोनों स्थितियाँ एक-दूसरे को बढ़ाती हैं → अम्लता कब्ज को बढ़ाती है, और कब्ज अम्लता को बढ़ाती है। अतः, मूल कारण कमजोर पाचन + असंतुलित वात-पित्त है।

2. उपचार के उद्देश्य - उत्तेजित पित्त को शांत करें → अम्ल, जलन और रिफ्लक्स को कम करें। - अग्नि (पाचन अग्नि) को संतुलित करें → पाचन क्रिया को बेहतर बनाएँ, अपचित भोजन के जमाव से बचें। -अपान वात को संतुलित करें → कब्ज दूर करें, स्वस्थ उत्सर्जन बनाए रखें। -अमा (विषाक्त पदार्थों) को दूर करें → आंत को साफ़ करें। -पेट और आँतों की श्लेष्मा परत को मज़बूत बनाएँ → दीर्घकालिक स्वास्थ्य लाभ।

3. आंतरिक औषधियाँ

एसिड और जलन के लिए -अविपत्तिकर चूर्ण – 3-5 ग्राम (1 छोटा चम्मच) भोजन से पहले गर्म पानी के साथ, दिन में दो बार। = पित्त को संतुलित करता है, पाचन क्रिया को बढ़ाता है, हल्का रेचक → एसिडिटी और कब्ज दोनों को ठीक करता है।

-कामदुधा रस (मुक्ता युक्त) – 125 मिलीग्राम शहद या पानी के साथ, दिन में दो बार। =शक्तिशाली एन्टासिड, शीतलता प्रदान करता है, गैस्ट्रिक म्यूकोसा की रक्षा करता है।

-यष्टिमधु (मुलेठी) चूर्ण – आधा छोटा चम्मच गुनगुने दूध के साथ, दिन में एक बार। =पेट की परत को शांत करता है, जलन से राहत देता है, उपचार में सहायता करता है।

कब्ज और पेट की सफाई के लिए

-त्रिफला चूर्ण – सोने से पहले 3-5 ग्राम गर्म पानी के साथ। =आंतों को संतुलित करता है, विषाक्त पदार्थों को बाहर निकालता है, सभी दोषों को संतुलित करता है।

-हरीतकी चूर्ण – रात में 2-3 ग्राम गर्म पानी के साथ (यदि कब्ज बहुत ज़्यादा हो)। =विबंध के लिए प्राचीन उपाय, रुकावटों को दूर करता है।

दीर्घकालिक पेट की मज़बूती के लिए आमलकी रसायन – प्रतिदिन 1 चम्मच शहद के साथ। =शीतल, एंटीऑक्सीडेंट, पेट को पोषण देता है, पित्त को संतुलित करता है।

अवधि: आमतौर पर 6-8 सप्ताह तक लगातार, उसके बाद पुनर्मूल्यांकन। अधिकांश रोगियों को स्थायी प्रभाव के लिए 3-6 महीने की आवश्यकता होती है।

4. बाह्य चिकित्सा (यदि आयुर्वेदिक केंद्र में की जाती है) -तक्र (छाछ) के साथ शिरोधारा → पित्त के लिए अत्यधिक शीतल, तनाव को कम करता है।

- नारियल या चंदनदि तेल जैसे शीतल तेलों से अभ्यंग (तेल से मालिश) → पित्त और वात को नियंत्रित करता है।

पंचकर्म (जीर्ण/दुर्दम्य प्रकृति के मामलों में): -विरेचन (शोधन चिकित्सा) → अतिरिक्त पित्त को शुद्ध करता है, अम्लता को कम करता है। -बस्ती (औषधीय एनीमा) → अपान वात को ठीक करता है, कब्ज को कम करता है।

5. जीवनशैली में परिवर्तन (दिनचर्या और ऋतुचर्या) भोजन की दिनचर्या: नियमित समय पर भोजन करें, देर रात के भोजन से बचें, खाने के तुरंत बाद लेटें नहीं। तरल पदार्थों का सेवन: दिन भर गुनगुना पानी पिएँ, ठंडे पेय पदार्थ न लें। नींद: पर्याप्त 7-8 घंटे की नींद, सिर हृदय के स्तर से थोड़ा ऊपर रखें। तनाव: तनाव, क्रोध, अधिक सोचना पित्त को बढ़ाता है → योग, ध्यान से नियंत्रण। शारीरिक गतिविधि: प्रतिदिन 20-30 मिनट टहलना, हल्का योग। भोजन के तुरंत बाद तीव्र जिमिंग से बचें।

6. योग एवं प्राणायाम योग आसन (हल्के, पित्त-वात संतुलन) वज्रासन (भोजन के बाद बैठें, पाचन में सहायता करता है)। पवनमुक्तासन (गैस से राहत दिलाता है)। अर्ध मत्स्येन्द्रासन (पाचन क्रिया को उत्तेजित करता है)। भुजंगासन, शलभासन (अग्नि में सुधार)।

प्राणायाम शीतली और शीतकारी - ठंडा करने वाली, पित्त को शांत करने वाली। अनुलोम-विलोम (नाड़ी शोधन) - वात और पित्त को संतुलित करता है। भ्रामरी - शांत करने वाली, तनाव से राहत देने वाली। (एसिडिटी नियंत्रित होने तक कपालभाति या भस्त्रिका से बचें।)

7. सामान्य आहार (अहारा) -अनाज: पुराना चावल, गेहूं, जौ, जई। -दालें: मूंग दाल, मसूर दाल (हल्की)। -सब्जियाँ: लौकी, तुरई, कद्दू, खीरा, -पालक (हल्का पका हुआ)। -फल: केला (पका हुआ), सेब, नाशपाती, अनार, पपीता, तरबूज (मध्यम)। -डेयरी: दूध (गुनगुना), घी (थोड़ी मात्रा में)। -मसाले: जीरा, धनिया, सौंफ, इलायची।

इनसे बचें: -तला हुआ, तैलीय, मसालेदार, खट्टा भोजन। -अचार, दही (विशेषकर रात में)। -चाय, कॉफी, कार्बोनेटेड पेय, शराब। -टमाटर, खट्टे फल, मिर्च, प्याज, लहसुन (अधिक मात्रा में)। -बेकरी खाद्य पदार्थ, जंक फूड, रेड मीट।

8. घरेलू उपचार -जीरा + धनिया + सौंफ का काढ़ा - भोजन के बाद उबालें और घूँट-घूँट करके पिएँ (पाचन में सुधार, एसिडिटी कम करता है)। -एलोवेरा जूस (15-20 मिली) खाली पेट - ठंडक, एसिड-रोधी। - तेज़ जलन होने पर ठंडा दूध (बिना चीनी वाला)। - भोजन के बाद 3-4 तुलसी के पत्ते चबाएँ। - रात में गर्म दूध में 1 छोटा चम्मच घी डालकर पिएँ - कब्ज में आराम देता है और पेट को आराम देता है।

9. आवश्यक जाँचें चूँकि आपकी समस्या पुरानी है और नियमित दवाओं से ठीक नहीं हो रही है, इसलिए चिकित्सक को गंभीर कारणों को दूर करने के लिए निम्नलिखित जाँचें करनी चाहिए: - ऊपरी जठरांत्र संबंधी मार्ग की एंडोस्कोपी - ग्रासनलीशोथ, गैस्ट्राइटिस, अल्सर की पहचान करने के लिए। - एच. पाइलोरी परीक्षण - अम्लता पैदा करने वाले जीवाणु संक्रमण की जाँच करने के लिए। - बुनियादी जाँचें: सीबीसी, एलएफटी, टीएफटी, रक्त शर्करा, विटामिन बी12।

Experiencing indigestion, burning sensation in the throat, constipation, and a feeling of heaviness indicates an imbalance in digestive fire, primarily related to an aggravated Pitta and Vata dosha. This condition needs a methodical approach that aids digestion without over-relying on pharmaceuticals.

First, let’s address the immediate discomfort of acid reflux and burning sensation. You might find relief by mixing 1 teaspoon of coriander seed powder with warm water and drinking it after meals. Coriander is known for its cooling properties and can help soothe the burning sensation.

Incorporate Trikatu powder (a combination of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger) to stimulate your digestive fire. Take a quarter teaspoon with honey before meals — this can enhance Agni and improve digestion. Ensure not to overconsume, as it’s quite potent.

For constipation, Triphala is often recommended. It’s a gentle, herbal remedy that can help regulate bowel movements. Before going to bed, take 1 teaspoon of Triphala powder mixed in warm water. It may take a few days to notice the effects, but it generally works well for such conditions.

Diet will also play a significant role. Minimize consumption of spicy, oily, and overly acidic foods, which aggravate Pitta. Avoid cold or refrigerated foods and drinks, which disrupt Vata. Focus on warm, cooked foods that are easy to digest, like rice, cooked vegetables, and khichdi. Drink herbal teas with cumin and fennel seeds throughout the day to ease digestion.

Lastly, establish regular meal times. Eating at irregular intervals can weaken digestion. Practice slow, mindful eating. If symptoms persist despite these changes, consulting a healthcare professional is advisable to rule out any serious underlying conditions. Keep an attentive watch on how your body reacts to these remedies and adjust as needed.

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. Garima Mattu
I am working in Ayurveda for about 2 years now, mainly around gynecological problems, which I honestly feel are way more common than most people realise. I see a lot of women struggling silently with issues like irregular periods, cramps that just don’t stop, mood swings, PCOS kind of symptoms... sometimes they come in after trying a bunch of stuff already n nothing really works long-term. That’s where I try to bring in a more rooted approach. I use a mix of Ayurvedic principles, dietetics (like food based on dosha & body type etc), and yoga therapy to manage these conditions. It’s not just about reducing pain during periods or balancing hormones—it’s more like trying to understand what’s causing the imbalances in the first place. I spend time trying to map the prakriti-vikriti profile and see how stress, food, daily habits are impacting the cycle. I don’t rush things, coz honestly healing isn't linear and doesn't follow some fixed timeline. And not everyone wants to jump into panchakarma straightaway either, right? Also pain management is a big part of my work. Whether it’s period cramps or pelvic pain, or even chronic stuff tied to digestion and fatigue, I look at how we can ease that naturally. Sometimes through simple things like castor oil packs, or subtle shifts in routine, other times I may recommend herbs or formulations. Yoga plays a huge role too, esp. when the body feels stuck or inflamed. Not gym-style yoga, more therapeutic.. breath n movement syncing with dosha correction, that kind of thing. To be honest, I’m still learning—Ayurveda’s depth is huge, and I feel like I’m just getting started. But what I do know is, when I see women begin to trust their own body’s rhythm again, that’s really powerful. Makes all the effort worth it. Even small relief matters. It's not perfect, sometimes things take longer, sometimes we need to adjust mid-way... but it's real.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with clinical experience in both integrative setups and more focused specialty roles—which honestly gave me a pretty wide-angle view of how Ayurveda fits into modern patient care. I worked as the Clinic Head at Madhavbaug in Bangalore, where I wasn’t just doing OPD rounds—I was planning full treatment flows, coordinating team work, following up lab trends, and helping ppl navigate chronic issues like diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and early-stage cardiac concerns. That job made me think way more about how Ayurveda can support preventive cardiology, not just wait for something to go wrong. Then came a whole different space—my time as duty doctor at a maternal hospital. It was intense, but super valuable. I worked closely with mothers through their antenatal and postnatal phases, and learned how to weave Ayurvedic support into that space without overloading the system. Like, knowing when to use a herbal decoction vs when just timing a meal better might shift the outcome. There were also moments where I had to adjust protocols based on what was happening in real time—not everything follows the textbook. Across both places, one thing stayed common—I focused hard on root-cause thinking. Not just patching up numbers or covering symptoms. I try to build care that lasts beyond that one consult. Whether it’s tweaking an oil to match a dosha shift, or helping someone actually follow a sleep routine without making them feel guilty for missing it... I believe real care is flexible, but still rooted in the classics. I use Panchakarma selectively—like Virechana or Basti when truly called for—and combine that with solid dietary advice, patient-led journaling, and mind-body awareness. I don't force rigid changes. I work with the patient's rhythm. That way it sticks better. For me, it’s not just about prescribing herbs or quoting sutras. It’s about building trust, helping people reconnect with their bodies, and using Ayurveda in a way that fits their life—not in a way that overwhelms it. That’s the kind of work I’m trying to build, one step at a time.

Dr. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.
