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.

The symptoms you are describing—severe hair fall, constant fatigue, body aches, irritability, and mood fluctuations—are complex and interconnected. From an Ayurvedic perspective, they point to a significant imbalance of your doshas, primarily Vata and Pitta. The mention of Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D deficiency further supports the need to address the root cause, which in Ayurveda is often related to poor digestion and assimilation of nutrients (a weak Agni).

​ ​Here’s an Ayurvedic opinion on your condition, broken down by dosha imbalance and a holistic approach.

​Understanding the Dosha Imbalances ​Vata Imbalance: Vata governs movement, the nervous system, and all bodily functions. When Vata is aggravated, it leads to dryness, instability, and depletion.
​Symptoms: Severe hair fall, constant body ache (especially worsening at night), weakness, fatigue, and feeling ungrounded are all classic signs of an aggravated Vata. The aches and weakness are due to Vata’s effect on the musculoskeletal and nervous systems.

​Pitta Imbalance: Pitta governs metabolism, digestion, and transformation, and is associated with the element of fire. ​Symptoms: Anger, irritability, and mood fluctuations are direct manifestations of excess Pitta. This “heat” can also contribute to inflammation, which may worsen your body aches at night.

​The Link to Vitamin Deficiencies: In Ayurveda, deficiencies like Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D are not just seen as a lack of a single nutrient. They are a sign that your Agni (digestive fire) is weak, and your body is not properly digesting and absorbing the nutrients from the food you eat. ​Ayurvedic Recommendations ​An Ayurvedic approach would focus on pacifying Vata and Pitta, strengthening your Agni to improve nutrient absorption, and rejuvenating your body and mind. ​1. Diet (Aahara) ​Pacify Vata & Pitta: ​Eat warm, cooked, and nourishing foods: Soups, stews, and khichdi with ghee are excellent. Ghee is particularly beneficial for calming both Vata and Pitta.
​Favor sweet, sour, and salty tastes for Vata; sweet, bitter, and astringent for Pitta. This means including foods like sweet fruits (melons, berries), leafy greens, and cooked vegetables.
​Avoid cold, raw, and dry foods: Salads, iced drinks, and crackers can aggravate Vata. ​Limit spicy, sour, and fermented foods: These can increase Pitta and its associated symptoms of anger and irritation.
​Herbs and Spices: Use warming spices like ginger and cumin in moderation. Turmeric is excellent for reducing inflammation.
​2. Lifestyle (Vihara) ​Establish a Routine (Dinacharya): Vata thrives on routine. Go to bed and wake up at consistent times. A regular schedule helps to ground Vata and reduce anxiety and fatigue.
​Abhyanga (Oil Massage): Daily self-massage with warm sesame or almond oil is incredibly effective for pacifying Vata. Massaging the scalp with oils like Bhringraj or Brahmi oil can also directly help with hair fall and stress.
​Manage Stress: Practices like meditation, gentle yoga (especially grounding poses), and Pranayama (breathing exercises like Nadi Shodhana) are essential for calming the mind and reducing mood fluctuations.
​Sunlight Exposure: For your Vitamin D deficiency, gentle sun exposure in the early morning or late afternoon is highly recommended. It is a natural way to increase Vitamin D levels and regulate your circadian rhythm.

​3. Herbal Remedies (Aushadhi) ​For Vata and Fatigue: ​Ashwagandha: A powerful adaptogen that helps the body cope with stress, reduces fatigue, and strengthens the nervous system.
​Bala: Known for its ability to increase strength and reduce weakness and body aches.
​For Pitta and Mood Swings: ​Brahmi: A famous herb for the mind, it calms the nervous system, improves mental clarity, and reduces anger and irritability.
​Jatamansi: Helps with emotional stability and promotes restful sleep. ​For Hair Fall: ​Bhringraj: Known as the “king of hair,” it is a key herb for promoting hair growth and preventing hair fall by nourishing the hair tissue and cooling the scalp.
​**Amla (Indian Gooseberry): A rich source of Vitamin C and antioxidants, it nourishes the hair roots and improves overall health.
​In conclusion, your symptoms are likely a result of an aggravated Vata and Pitta, compounded by poor digestion. A successful Ayurvedic treatment would involve a combination of dietary changes, a disciplined lifestyle, and specific herbal remedies to correct these imbalance.

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.

HELLO ANSHIKA,

Ayurvedic Understanding
Vitamin B12 deficiency is seen as Rakta Dhatu Kshaya (weakness of blood tissue) and Majja Dhatu kshaya (nerve weakness). Vitamin D deficiency relates to Asthi Dhatu Kshaya (bone and muscle weakness). Symptoms like irritability, mood swings, depression, and fatigue occur due to an imbalance of Vata (nervous system), Pitta (anger/irritation), and Kapha (heaviness/sleepiness).

Detailed Ayurvedic Management
1. Dietary Recommendations (Pathya Ahara)

For Vitamin B12 (support for Rakta & Majja Dhatu):
Include:
- Warm milk, preferably cow’s milk, with a pinch of turmeric or Ashwagandha.
- Ghee (1 to 2 teaspoons daily).
- Paneer and curd (in moderation, not at night).
- Sprouted moong, methi seeds, soaked almonds, and walnuts.
- If non-vegetarian: eggs, fish, and goat’s milk products.

For Vitamin D (support for Asthi Dhatu & absorption):
- Get early morning sun exposure (15 to 20 minutes, between 7 and 9 am).
- Eat sesame seeds, ragi, drumstick leaves, amaranth, figs, and dates.
- Include cow’s ghee and til oil to improve calcium absorption.

General guidelines:
- Avoid junk food, refined sugar, excessive tea or coffee, cold drinks, and late-night eating.
- Eat freshly cooked, warm, light meals.
- Maintain regular meal times.

2. Lifestyle & Daily Routine (Dinacharya)
- Wake up early (Brahma Muhurta – before sunrise).
- Perform oil massage (Abhyanga) with sesame oil or Dhanwantharam oil to relieve fatigue, improve bone strength, and calm Vata.
- Practice mild yoga and pranayama:
- Surya Namaskar (5 to 7 rounds).
- Anulom Vilom and Bhramari (to calm the mind and reduce irritability).
- Vajrasana after meals (to improve digestion).
- Fix a proper sleep schedule and avoid daytime sleep.

3. Herbal & Ayurvedic Medicines

- Chyawanprash: 1 teaspoon daily with warm milk (rejuvenates and supports immunity and vitality).

- Ashwagandha churna: 3 to 5 grams at night with warm milk (for strength, mood balance, and sleep).

- Shatavari kalpa: for nourishment and hormonal balance. 1 tsp at night with warm milk

- Draksharishta / Ashwagandharishta: 15 ml with equal water after meals (improves digestion and relieves fatigue).

- Brahmi vati : 1 tab at night for mind relaxation, concentration, and depression.

- Ayurvedic calcium support (if bones are weak): Praval pishti and Mukta shukti bhasma= 125 mg with warm milk before meals

4. Rasayana (Rejuvenation Therapy)

- Amalaki Rasayana = 1 tsp in morning (rich in Vitamin C, improves absorption).
- Guduchi Satva:1 tsp with warm milk twice daily enhances immunity and digestion.

5. Panchakarma (if symptoms persist)
- Abhyanga + Swedana (oil massage plus steam): for body ache and fatigue.
- Shirodhara (oil dripping therapy): for stress, mood swings, and depression.
- Basti (medicated enema): best for Vata disorders (chronic fatigue, body pain, and weakness).

In short:
Correct your diet with milk, ghee, nuts, sesame, sprouts, and sunlight. Strengthen digestion (Agni) and absorption. Use Ashwagandha, Chyawanprash, and Rasayana herbs. Engage in daily yoga, pranayama, and Abhyanga. If symptoms persist, consider Panchakarma under guidance.

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

It’s essential to approach your concerns by addressing both underlying nutritional deficiencies and overall balance in your body, according to Ayurveda. Given your symptoms and Vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, improving your nutrition is crucial. Here’s some steps to consider:

Firstly, addressing the deficiencies: Since you have Vitamin B12 deficiency, introduce foods like dairy products (milk, yogurt), and if you’re non-vegetarian, include eggs, fish and poultry. For Vitamin D, exposure to sunlight for about 15-20 minutes daily, especially in the early morning, can naturally boost your levels. Incorporating fortified foods like fortified milk or cereals might help too.

From an Ayurvedic perspective, your symptoms suggest an imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas. Incorporating grounding and calming foods can help balance these. Focus on consuming warm, nourishing foods like soups, stews, and well-cooked whole grains such as rice or quinoa. Adding healthy fats like ghee or organic oils in your diet can be beneficial too.

In terms of lifestyle, creating a routine is very important. Aim to wake up and go to bed at the same time every day. Practicing daily meditation or pranayama (breathing exercises) can aid in managing stress and mood fluctuations. Regular, gentle physical activity, such as yoga or walking, helps in managing these.

For your body aches, consider warm oil massages using sesame oil or olive oil. Application before warm bath can provide some relief. Eating at consistent times and ensuring you’re chewing thoroughly helps enhance digestion and nutrient absorption.

Additionally, I would recommend checking in with a healthcare provider or Ayurvedic practioner who can monitor your progress and adjust your plan accordingly. Vitamim supplements can sometimes be necessary, but it’s critical to have professional guidance based on your individual needs.

These integrative approaches address the current symptoms and assist in rebalancing your body’s natural energies and to promoting better overall vitality.

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

Addressing your symptoms will involve looking at the balance of doshas, as well as addressing the nutrient deficiencies you mentioned. Let’s consider both the Ayurvedic perspective and contemporary nutritional needs.

Your symptoms such as tiredness, mood swings, increased irritability, and weakness suggest an imbalance possibly contributed by aggravated Vata dosha. The body ache worsening at night aligns with this, as Vata-related issues often intensify after sunset. First, let’s look at a few remedies:

1. Diet and Nutrition: Since you have mentioned Vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, include more sources of these in your diet. B12 can be found in dairy products, eggs, fatty fish, and fortified cereals. For Vitamin D, spend time in morning sunlight for at least 15-20 minutes daily. Incorporate foods like mushrooms and fortified foods. Consider dietary supplements after consulting a healthcare professional to fulfill these deficiencies safely.

2. Routine and Lifestyle: A regular routine can help stabilize Vata. Go to bed and wake up at consistent times. Engage in calming activities in the evening – meditation or a warm oil massage with sesame oil can help pacify Vata.

3. Herbal Support: Amla (Indian gooseberry) is a great choice to nourish and replenish the hair as it’s rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants. For calming and improved sleep quality, consider Ashwagandha at bedtime, but only after ensuring it’s suitable for you by consultation.

4. Hydration and Rest: Ensure you are drinking enough water throughout the day, as dehydration can contribute to tiredness. Adequate rest is also crucial – 7-8 hours of sleep nightly.

If symptoms persist or worsen, or if you’re not already under medical supervision for these deficiencies, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare provider to avoid any serious underlying conditions.

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. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

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. Tejashree Shreyansh Bahirshet
I am someone who never really believed in quick fixes or masking symptoms just to make things look better on surface. I genuinely feel Ayurveda’s biggest strength is how deeply it sees people—like, really sees them—beyond the pain, or rash, or gas or whatever else they're struggling with. When you walk into my clinic with a headache, I’m not thinking "okay paracetamol equivalent herb and done"—no, I’m asking, what's your appetite like?? are you stressed out lately, sleeping well or waking up at weird hours? Do you snack on dry spicy stuff all the time? All that matters, a lot more than people realise. My whole approach is built around the idea that your body and mind aren’t just connected—they’re constantly talking to each other. And when one of them's off-balance, the other's definitely affected too. That’s why I never follow one-size-fits-all kind of thing. Every single treatment I give—whether it’s a diet suggestion, a classical herbal combo, or a daily routine tweak—is totally tailored to your dosha type, your prakriti, your job routine, everything. I also pay a lot of attention to simple, small shifts. You don’t need 10 exotic medicines. Sometimes changing when you eat can do more than adding any fancy herb. That’s why I focus a lot on lifestyle counselling and food habits. Like okay, if you’re eating good stuff but always in a rush, while scrolling your phone—ya, that’s a problem. And we work on that too. One thing I really try to create is a space where people feel safe to open up. Sometimes people don’t just need medicine—they just need someone to actually listen to their story without rushing. I try to be that person. And I think that's when healing truly begins—when the person across from you feels seen n heard without judgment. I work with all kinds of chronic problems—digestive, skin, stress-related—but what I’m really interested in is how we can help prevent future issues too. That’s where Rasayana, dinacharya, and other preventive parts of Ayurveda come in. My goal is to not just fix what's wrong now, but actually help you build a way of life that keeps you well for the long run. Let’s just say, I take that part pretty seriously.

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.

Dr. Batu
I am an Ayurvedic doctor trying to bring the old wisdom of chikitsa into daily life, even if sometime I feel I am still learning new things every single day.. I work mostly with the classical principles, the ones I studied again n agin during my training, and I try to see how they fit with each patient’s prakriti and the tiny details of their health story. I am often thinking how Ayurveda doesn’t rush anything, it asks for understanding of the roga and even the rogi in a deeper way, and I keep that in mind when someone walks in and tell me their concerns. Some cases are simple, some not really, but I do my best to look at the ahara, vihara, dosha pattern and even the habits they don’t notice at first. Sometimes I get a bit caught up in analysing too many factors at once, or typing notes too fas and mixing commas,, but at the core I focus on using authentic Ayurvedic approaches—herbal formulations, routine correction, panchkarma suggestions where needed—and I try to guide people gently without overwhelming them. I am also aware that many patients come with doubts or half-heard ideas about Ayurveda, and I try to clear those without sounding too “doctorly,” just explaining what makes sense for their body. I want them to feel they can trust the process, even if progress take time or feel slow on some days. I am still growing in this field, and every person who comes to me reminds me why I chose Ayurveda in the first place: clarity, balance, and healing that respects the person as a whole. There are moments where I wish I had more hours in a day to study more granthas or revise a chapter I skipped, but I stay committed to giving care that is genuine, thoughtful and rooted in traditional practice—even if the journey gets a bit messy here n there !!

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. 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. Akanksha Sharma
I am Dr. Akanksha Sharma — an Ayurvedic doctor by degree, but honestly the real learning came from people walking in with stories way messier than the textbooks said. I studied at Himachal Pradesh University, and right from those early days I kinda knew I’d lean toward women’s health — not sure why at first, but over time it just made sense. PCOS, PMS stuff, acne that just doesn’t go, weird cycles, fatigue that keeps creeping in — it’s all connected. And Ayurveda actually *gets* that kind of connection, which is why I stuck with it. I started Aarogya Vatika not to “run a clinic” but to have space where healing could slow down a bit. Like, no one-size plans, no blind detox routines... just clear, slow, honest care. That’s where I bring in classical Ayurvedic therapies — yes, herbs and dosha balancing and all that — but always mixed with real-life stuff people *can* follow. Diet tweaks, small rhythm shifts, herbal combos that don’t wreck your gut... the idea is sustainability, not overwhelm. Hormonal regulation through Ayurveda is kinda my thing now — whether it’s delayed cycles, mood swings tied to periods, or even the peri-menopause fog that just throws life off. I also work a lot on skin issues, especially stress-led ones — pigmentation, flare-ups, unexplained dullness. And digestion, of course. Honestly most things start from there anyway. What matters to me most is that my patients feel heard. Like really heard. That’s why prakriti analysis is not just a formality in my consults — I use it to help them understand how they *work*, why their body responds the way it does, and how they can actually support it without fighting all the time. I don’t claim to fix everything fast. But I do care about getting the root cause right, even if it means slowing down or reworking the plan. Ayurveda doesn’t rush — and neither do I.

Dr. Akanksha Singh
I am an Ayurveda practitioner and also an enthusiast who belive that healing is not only about medicines but also about living in a way that supports health everyday. My main focus has been on treating auto-immune disorders, musculoskeletal disease like joint pains or stiffness, chronic back problems, as well as liver disorders where digestion and metabolism gets heavily affected. I also work with patients who are struggling with infertility issues and various gynaecological ailment, from irregular cycles to hormonal imbalance that disturb daily life. During my practice I learned that Ayurveda is not a fixed formula, it changes with every person. What help one patient may not help another, even if they show same symptoms. That realization keep me humble and constantly alert. I prefer to combine classical Ayurvedic knowledge with practical lifestyle changes that can actually be followed by patients in modern busy life. Sometimes even small steps like correcting food timing or simple yoga practice can create bigger impact than complicated medication alone. Auto-immune conditions are close to my interest because they are often long term and frustrating for patients who already tried many treatment but find only partial relief. Ayurveda gives a way to look deeper into root imbalances, focusing on gut, liver, immunity and stress factor. In musculoskeletal issues, especially arthritis or degenerative diseases, I seen how Panchakarma and herbal support brings steady improvement when patients stick to the plan. For liver disorders, I emphasize both detoxification and strengthening digestion to prevent relapse. In women’s health, infertility and gynaecology remain a key area where Ayurveda provide hope. Many cases require patience, regular follow up, and often emotional support too. I try to be realistic with my patients and not promise instant cure, but I do believe strongly that with the right therapeutics and disciplined living style, healing becomes almost inevitable sooner or later. I dont claim perfection in my work, sometimes results are slow and I also learn from setbacks. But that keeps me connected to the human side of medicine. To me, Ayurveda is not only treatment, it is also a philosophy of balance. Whether dealing with auto-immune flares, painful joints, weak liver, or women’s health challenges, my approach stays rooted in personalized care, because no two bodies are exact same.

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.
