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.

I am working in Ayurveda since a while now and honestly—every clinic, every patient sorta keeps changing how I look at healing. At **Pranav Ayurveda Clinic & Panchkarma Center** in Udaipur, I was there for around a year... mostly focusing on direct consultations. Like actually sitting with patients, listening (which is half the work tbh), digging into their lifestyle n dosha patterns, and figuring what kinda classical meds or pathya suits them without overcomplicating things. It was a small setup but I got to really *talk* to people, and that made a big diff in my approach. Then at **Aarogyam Ayurveda Hospital & Panchkarma Center**, I spent another year where the vibe was totally diff—more hospital-like, more structured. Here I was managing OPD, kinda busy shifts, and also personally handling **Panchkarma therapies**. I used to assist and sometimes even carry out basti, virechan, nasya... depending on the case and condition. Not all days were smooth, like some patients were skeptical or wanted instant results, but honestly it taught me patience and also how to explain what Ayurveda actually *means* in terms of timelines n healing. There’s always this push to mix modern reporting n Ayurveda and while I try to stay rooted in classical texts, I also check labs or imaging reports when needed, esp for chronic stuff. Still learning, still fumbling sometimes—but the whole process feels alive, yk? Real. I’m not here for quick fixes. I just wanna be part of a process where Ayurveda feels less like a "last resort" and more like the primary choice. That’s kinda where I stand rn.

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.

Ayurveda views the severe joint pain and swelling associated with Chikungunya as a condition similar to what is described as “Sandhijwara,” or “fever of the joints.” The symptoms are attributed to an imbalance, particularly of the Vata and Kapha doshas. The Ayurvedic approach aims to not only alleviate symptoms but also to address the underlying imbalance and remove toxins (ama) from the body.

​Abhyanga (Oil Massage): Gentle massage with warm medicated oils like Mahanarayan Tailam, Dhanvantaram Tailam, or Mahavishgarbh Tailam on the painful joints can help balance Vata and Kapha, improve blood circulation, and reduce pain and stiffness.

​Swedana (Herbal Steam Therapy): This therapy involves sweating through herbal steam. It helps relax stiff muscles, promotes circulation, and aids in the elimination of toxins.

​Dietary and Lifestyle Recommendations ​Warm and Nourishing Foods: Emphasize foods that pacify Vata and Kapha doshas, such as warm soups, stews, and porridges with anti-inflammatory spices like ginger, turmeric, and black pepper.
​Hydration: Drink plenty of lukewarm water and herbal teas (ginger, turmeric, Tulsi) throughout the day to stay hydrated and support joint health.
​Avoid: Steer clear of cold, raw, and dry foods, which can aggravate Vata dosha and worsen joint pain.
​Rest and Gentle Movement: Get adequate rest and avoid overexertion. Once the acute pain subsides, gentle exercises like yoga (e.g., Bhujangasana, Balasana) and pranayama can help improve flexibility, circulation, and reduce stress.
​Avoid Cold: Keep the affected joints warm with warm compresses or thermal wear, as cold weather can worsen symptoms.
​ Treatment

1) Maha Mrityunjay rasa- 2 tab before food 3 times with adrak ras and honey

2) Sudharshan churna-3gm +giloy satva-500mg+ godanti bhasma 250mg -afternoon 3 times with water

3) tab brihatyadi kashaya-2 tab after food 2 times

HELLO NINA,

You are suffering from Post chikangunya joint pain and swelling. -Chikungunya is a viral infection transmitted by mosquito bites. -While the fever and rash usually settle within a week, the virus leaves behind inflammation in the joints -This causes pain, stiffness, swelling, and difficulty in movement, which may continue for weeks or even months

In Ayurveda, this is seen as a vata imbalance (causing pain ,stiffness, dryness) mixed with pitta imbalance (causing burning sensation, inflammation, swelling). Sometimes undigested toxins also lodge in the joints and worsen pain

TREATMENT GOALS -reduce pain and swelling in joints -bbalance vata and pitta to prevent chronic arthritis -remove toxins from the body -strengthen immunity and metabolism so the body recovers faster -rejuvinate the joints to prevent long term stiffness

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) MAHARASNADI KASHAYA= 15 ml with equal water twice daily before meals =reduces stiffness, inflammation , and pain in multiple joints

2) DASHMOOLA KASHAYA= 20 ml with warm water twice daily after meals =excellent for swelling and vata-pitta related pain

3) YOGARAJ GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =helps in joint detoxification, reduces chronic pain, removes ama

4) KAISHOR GUGUGLU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =for inflammatory swelling, blood purification

5) GUDUCHI CAPSULES = 500 mg twice daily after meals =immunity booster, reduces long-term inflammation

6) TURMERIC + BLACK PEPPER POWDER= half tsp in warm milk daily =natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidants

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) OIL MASSAGE -warm medicated oils like Mahanarayan taila -gentle daily massage before warm water bath =reduces stiffness, improves circulation

2) STEAM FOMENTATION -apply massage apply warm steam with hot towel compress =relieves stiffness, swelling, and pain

3) HERBAL PASTE -Paste of dry ginger. + turmeric + castor leaves applied to painful joints =directly reduces local swelling and pain

DIET -warm, freshly cooked , easy to digest food -rice, green gram, soft cooked vegetables -cow’s ghee in small amounts -lubricates joints -herbal teas with ginger, tulsi or cinnamon -garlic and dry ginger in cooking

AVOID -cold,refrigerated food or drinks -sour, fermented food -pickles, vinegar, curd at night -heavy pulses - rajma, chana, urad dal -excess oily/fried food -exposure to cold wind or damp weather

GENTLE YOGA STRETCHES -bhujangasana -pawanmuktasana -tadasana

PRANAYAM -anulom vilom= balances vata -bhramari= calming, reduces pain perception

MEDITATION -helps reduce stress-related worsening of pain

SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES -turmeric milk at night with a pinch of black pepper -fenugreek seeds soaked overnight, chewed in morning -warm water with dry ginger powder (1/4 tsp) once a day -Epsom salt soak for swollen hands/feet -castor oil 1 tsp with warm milk once. week- mild cleansing for joints toxins

Some post-chikungunya arthritis resembles other forms of arthritis. To rule out complications

BLOOD TEST= ESR, CRP, RA factor, Anti-CCP, CBC URINE TEST= to check kidney function before starting some medicines IF severe swelling persists : consult a rheumatologist

-Your pain and swelling are known after effect of chikangunya -Ayurveda aims to remove the leftover toxins, balance body energies, and rejuvinate joints -with proper medicines , diet, and therapies most people recover in 1-3 months -Patience is important- rushing or ignoring it can lead to chronic arthritis

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

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.

For the joint pains and swelling due to Chickungunya, Ayurveda offers effective remedies focusing on easing inflammation and restoring balance. The following guidance is based on classical Ayurvedic principles.

Firstly, using a warm oil massage can help alleviate joint pain. Mahanarayan oil, known for its pain-relieving properties, is particularly beneficial. Gently massage the affected areas with this oil once or twice daily. Warm the oil slightly before application, and ensure gentle strokes to prevent aggravation.

Internal management is also crucial. A decoction of Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) can boost immunity and reduce inflammation. Prepare it by boiling 10-15 grams of Guduchi stems in two cups of water until reduced to one cup. Strain and take this once a day. It helps cleanse the body and alleviate symptoms.

Incorporating turmeric into her diet can be immensely helpful due to its anti-inflammatory properties. Add half a teaspoon of turmeric powder to warm milk or water, and consume twice daily. This helps reduce inflammation and supports joint health.

Diet plays a significant role. Encourage her to eat light, easily digestible foods such as rice, mung dal, and steamed vegetables. Avoid sour, spicy, or oily foods that can aggravate the condition. Sipping warm water throughout the day can aid digestion and detoxification.

Gentle yoga poses and pranayama (breathing exercises) can support circulation and flexibility. However, ensure she performs only what is comfortable, avoiding strain on joints.

If symptoms persist, consulting an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized treatment is recommended. Regular monitoring and adaptation of the regimen may be necessary to ensure optimal recovery.

For managing severe joint pain and swelling due to Chikungunya, the approach is to balance aggravated Vata, which is often the root cause behind such pains. Turmeric and ginger are excellent natural anti-inflammatory agents. Encourage your friend to incorporate turmeric in her daily diet, perhaps by mixing half a teaspoon of turmeric powder in warm milk. Adding a pinch of black pepper can enhance absorption. Ginger tea, made by boiling fresh ginger slices in water, can be taken twice daily to help alleviate pain.

Since Chikungunya may weaken digestion, consuming light and easily digestible foods like moong dal or rice soups is advisable. Avoid cold, heavy, and fried foods, as they may imbalance Vata further. Keeping warm, especially extremities, is very important; applying sesame oil, which is warming and Vata-pacifying, to painful joints can relieve stiffness and pain. A gentle oil massage followed by a warm compress might be beneficial.

Hydration is crucial. Warm herbal teas or simply warm water through out the day can aid in flushing out toxins and keeping the system balanced. Consider supporting digestion with herbs like Triphala, which not only helps with gut health but also assists in reducing inflammation.

Though these practices can provide relief, it is essential to contact healthcare professional skilled in managing viral fevers and consult if symptoms persist or worsen. Always balance Ayurvedic remedies with necessary medical care to ensure comprehensive management of Chikungunya symptoms.

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 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. Vinayak Kamble
I am about 1 year into my practice journey n honestly that feels both small n big at the same time. When I first started, I wasn’t sure how quickly I could adjust from academic space into real clinical care, but gradually with each patient I learnt something more. My main focus is on pain management—conditions like knee joint pain, sciatica, lumbar back ache, spondylitis, tennis elbow, golfer elbow, frozen shoulder, heel pain etc. I try to combine careful diagnosis with treatments rooted in Ayurveda yet explained in practical way so patients don’t feel lost. Sometimes progress is slow, sometimes quick, but always there is learning in it. During this year I also kept my dedication toward research and evidence-based approach. I worked on presenting ideas and papers in academic forums whenever I got chance, and even managed to publish in journals that value Ayurveda in modern context. That gave me confidence that my small contributions can add to bigger discussions in medical field. In my postgraduate study I had finished Medicine with top score in my batch, which felt rewarding but also left me with responsibility to keep proving that I deserve that position. Honestly, academic achievements are good but real test is when someone walks in pain and goes back with relief, even if just partial at first. Sometimes patients expect instant cure, n that is where I try to keep balance—explaining how pain relief in conditions like frozen shoulder or spondylitis may take staged approach, while also keeping them hopeful. Ayurveda gives a framework but patient trust makes the treatment effective. One year is not a long time but it has been enough to show me the value of consistency, clarity and listening more than talking. My aim is not just treating pain but helping people understand their body better, manage lifestyle triggers, and feel supported in the journey of healing!!

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

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.

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.

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. 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. 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. 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. Yash batra
I am someone who’s always been drawn to the deeper side of healing—not just treating the disease but seeing the whole person behind it. That’s what led me into Ayurvedic medicine, and over the years, I’ve stayed rooted in its classical principles while also adapting modern clinical insights where they make sense. It’s not about choosing one or the other. Honestly, it’s more about finding a balance that actually helps real people. Sometimes it’s messy, sometimes surprising. But it works. I’ve been actively working in patient care and diagnosis for a while now—long enough to have seen all sorts of conditions, both chronic and short-term, mild and a bit scary. Each case teaches something new. I manage everything from gut issues to hormonal imbalances, joint problems, respiratory stuff... and yeah, those lifestyle disorders that sneak up on folks like blood pressure, diabetes and all that. Most people come in with one thing, but it’s usually connected to a bunch of other stuff they didn’t even realize. That’s where holistic care really matters. Preventive healthcare is also a big part of what I do—probably more than some expect. It’s not just about herbs or medicine, but guiding people through sleep routines, food habits, emotional patterns too (though that part’s tricky). Sometimes people expect quick fixes, but I’ve found that explaining things in simple words, giving them tools to take charge of their own health, that’s where real change happens. I do that through health counseling, natural therapies, detox protocols... and plain honest talk. There’s no single “correct” formula I use, but I try to stay grounded in Ayurvedic principles—prakriti, agni, dosha balance—and blend them with a clinical perspective when needed. I’m still learning, by the way. Medicine isn’t a finish line. Every patient kinda resets the clock. And yes, sometimes I doubt if I’m doing enough, but then someone comes back after months and says something changed for them. That’s when it clicks. If you’re looking for someone who’ll throw a textbook at you, I’m not that. But if you want someone who listens, asks too many questions maybe, and looks at your health like it actually means something—then maybe we’d work well together.
