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.

It appears you are asking for an Ayurvedic opinion on how to reduce the frequency of nightfall, also known as nocturnal emission. ​Based on the information you’ve provided, here’s an Ayurvedic perspective on your situation: ​Understanding Nightfall in Ayurveda ​In Ayurveda, nightfall is often seen as a symptom of an imbalance, particularly related to the Vata and Pitta doshas. It is not necessarily considered a disease but can be a sign of a weakened Dhatu (body tissue), specifically Shukra Dhatu (reproductive tissue).
​Vata Imbalance: An aggravated Vata can lead to an increase in movement and can cause a lack of control, which might manifest as frequent nocturnal emissions. ​Pitta Imbalance: Excess Pitta (heat) in the body can also lead to a similar issue. ​Ojas: Ojas is the subtle energy of vitality and immunity. A depletion of Ojas can also contribute to a lack of control and overall weakness. ​Analysis of Your Current Regimen ​You are taking a mixture of Shatavari, Ashwagandha, and Triphala with milk, and you are also maintaining a healthy lifestyle with exercise and a good diet. This is a good starting point, but the combination and approach may need to be adjusted. ​Ashwagandha: This is a powerful Rasayana (rejuvenating herb) and is excellent for building Ojas and calming Vata. It’s known for its ability to strengthen the reproductive system.
​Shatavari: Shatavari is also a Rasayana and is particularly cooling and nourishing. It is great for balancing Pitta and supporting the reproductive system.
​Triphala: Triphala is primarily a digestive tonic and a mild laxative. While it helps cleanse the system, its primary action is not directly targeted at the reproductive system in this context.
​The combination of Shatavari and Ashwagandha is generally good, as they are both known to support reproductive health. However, if you are not seeing results, it could be for a few reasons:
​Dosage or Proportions: The proportion of each herb might not be right for your specific body constitution (Prakriti) and current imbalance (Vikriti). ​Underlying Cause: The root cause of the imbalance may be more complex than what this simple mixture can address. ​Timing: While taking it at night with milk is a traditional way to consume these herbs, the overall schedule and consistency might need to be looked.

​Adjust the Herbal Regimen: ​Add Specific Herbs: adding herbs that specifically address the reproductive system and help strengthen the tissues. Examples include: ​Gokshura: Known for its ability to strengthen the urinary and reproductive systems.
​Kaunch Beej (Mucuna pruriens): This herb is highly valued for its role in improving reproductive health and addressing issues related to male fertility.
​Shilajit: A powerful Rasayana that provides overall strength and vitality.
​Change the Anupana (Vehicle): While milk is a good vehicle, taking the herbs with honey, ghee, or even warm water, depending on the specific imbalance. Ghee, in particular, is an excellent carrier for herbs that need to penetrate deep into the tissues.
​Dietary Adjustments: ​Avoid Pungent and Spicy Foods: If the issue is due to excess Pitta, reducing spicy foods, sour foods, and fermented foods would be beneficial.
​Increase Sattvic Foods: Focus on fresh, whole foods that are easy to digest. Foods like green leafy vegetables, fresh fruits, and grains are recommended.
​Include Healthy Fats: Incorporate healthy fats like ghee and sesame oil, as they help nourish the Shukra Dhatu.
​Lifestyle Modifications (Beyond Your Current Routine): ​Mind-Body Connection: Nightfall can also be linked to mental and emotional factors. Practices that calm the mind, such as meditation, Pranayama (breathing exercises), and yoga, can be very helpful.
​Brahmacharya: In Ayurveda, moderation in sexual activity is a key principle for preserving Ojas.

​Calming Practices Before Bed: A warm bath with calming essential oils like lavender, a foot massage with sesame oil (Pada Abhyanga), or listening to soothing music can help calm the mind and body before sleep.
​Conclusion ​Your current efforts with diet and exercise are commendable. However, the lack of results with the Shatavari-Ashwagandha-Triphala mix suggests that a more personalized and holistic Ayurvedic approach is needed.

I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care.

Dr. Anupriya
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 KRISHN,

SYMPTOMS -Nightfall(swapnadosha)= primary concern

WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING -your body’s semen production system is overactive, and the mind and body are not able to control sexual excitement, even when you dont want it. Due to masturbation and sexual overthinking, your shukra dhatu(reproductive strength) has weakened. this has caused -semen loss without full erection or control -weak erection and early discharge -excess vata causes dryness, weakness+ pitta causes burning

In Ayurveda, this is called Shukra kshaya + dhat rog + vrushya avrodha- means your semen is being lost and your body can’t retain or rebuild it fast enough

TREATMENT GOAL -Stop nightfall and semen leakage -improve semen retention -increase timing and sexual stamina -reduce burning and rejuvenate penis -rebuild confidence and mental calm -avoid relapse by lifestyle discipline

PHASE 1- TREATMENT= DETOX AND SHUKRA DHATU RESTORATION DURATION- 1 month

1)CHANDRAPRABHA VATI(baidyanath/dootpapeshwar)= 2 tabs twice a day after food =flushes toxins from urinary tract, reduces burning, helps control nightfall

2)VRUSHYA VATI(shree narnarayan brand)= 2 tabs twice daily after food =strengthens reproductive tissue and prevents semen leakage

3)ASHWAGANDHA AVALEHA- 1 tbsp with warm milk morning and night =builds Ojas, releives mental fatigue, supports semen quality

4)KAMDEV GHRITA OR MAHACHANDANADI GHRITA- 1/2 tsp with warm milk at night =rejuvinates shukra dhatu, reduces vata-pitta

5)SHILAJIT GOLD CAPSULES(patanjali/dabur)= 1 cap daily after breakfast =boosts stamina, prevents early discharge

PHASE 2- STABILIZATION AND TIMING CONTROL DURATION= 2-3 months

1)YAUVANAMRIT VATI(baidyanth)- 1 tab twice daily after meals =builds long term stamina, sexual powder

2)SPEMAN(himalaya)- 2 tabs twice daily after meals =supports sperm health and erection control

3)VRIHANI GUTIKA (arya Vaidya sala-kottakal)- 1 tab once daily at night =increses timing, helps with kegel based results

4)SWAPNADOSHA HAR CHURNA- 1 tsp with milk at night =continued control over nightfall

DIET PRINCIPLES TO FOLLOW to build shukra dhatu(semen and reproductive energy), you need a Satvik, Ojas-building diet that reduces vata and pitta and supports long term strength

*MILK AND GHEE BASED ITEMS -cow milk-boiled, warm , possibly with nutmeg, cardamom or ashwagandha -ghee= 1-2 tsp daily, in food -butter, white butter in moderation

*VEGETABLES -lauki, turai, carrot or beetroot, pumpkin, spinach

*GRAINS rice, whole wheat chapati, mung dal, massor dal ,khichdi

*FRUITS banana, apple, papaya, pomegranate, dates, figs-soaked, coconut dry fruits in moderation

*NUTS AND SEEDS almonds(soaked overnight, peeled), walnuts, flax seeds or chia in water, sesame seeds-goods in winter

DON’TS - don’twatch porn or fantasy content -don’t sleep on your stomach -don’t overthink about your condition- stay calm -avoid isolation and overuse of phone/computer -avoid late night food or heavy dinners -don’t suppress urination or bowel movement

YOOGA AND EXERCISES these help with strengthening pelvic muscles, improves ejaculatory control and reducing mental tension

-VAJRASANA= imrproves digestion and smene control -PASCHIMOTTANASANA= Stimulates pelvic organs -SARVANGASANA= increase blood flow to testicles -BHUJANGASANA= stimulates adrenal glands -SHASHANASANA= releives stress, balances hormones

AVOID OVER EXERTION IN GYM STYLE WORKOUTS. FOCUS MORE ON SLOW, BREATH-LINKED MOVEMENTS THAT BUILD CORE STRENGTH, NOT EXCESSIVE MUSCLE BULK

EXTERNAL THERAPY

1)OIL MASSAGE- WITH BALASHWAGANDHADI TAILA OR MAKKA OIL -warm oil slightly -massage shaft only not glans -circular and upward strokes for 5-7 min -do not massage too fast or with pressure -daily or alternate days at bedtime =imporves blood flow, strengthens local nerves, delays ejaculation

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY TO GET RID OF PROBLEM

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Balancing nightfall frequency involves several aspects of Ayurveda, including lifestyle, diet, and specific herbal remedies. While you’re on commendable path with exercise and dietary restrictions, a few additional steps might be needed.

Your use of Shatavari and Ashwagandha is beneficial. But, these herbs take time for effects to manifest, typically, over a few months. You might want to tweak the timings. Consume Shatavari and Ashwagandha powder with warm water rather than milk, preferably on an empty stomach in morning. Milk can be heavy for night digestion, potentially disturbing sleep if taken with herbs.

Triphala is great for digestion, take it 30 mins before dinner with warm water instead. A strong Agni (digestive fire) helps in reducing unnecessary night emissions by facilitating proper digestion and fluid balance.

Incorporating Abhyanga (self-massage) with sesame oil can aid. Do this 30 minutes before your morning showers, it will relax your nervous system, reducing stress-induced nightfall.

Medhya Rasayana like Brahmi could also be incorporated. It calms the mind, aiding better sleep quality. A Brahmi supplement or fresh Brahmi leaves, boiled in water, consumed 1 hour before sleep, could be supportive.

Adopting meditation or pranayama, like Anulom Vilom or Nadi Shodhana, helps balance Vata dosha, which when aggravated, may cause frequency inconsistencies. Commit 15 minutes daily, preferably in the evening, for betterment over a few weeks.

Consider your emotional health too. Stress or anxiety can manifest physically. Keeping a journal, talking to a trusted friend or professional can aid in managing possible subconscious stressors.

Ensure proper hydration, but not excessive fluid intake right before bed, to avoid frequent urination, leading to unintentional emissions. If after these holistic adjustments, nightfall issues persist, consulting a specialized Ayurvedic practitioner may offer more personalized insights.

Nightfall, or nocturnal emissions, is a natural process and can be influenced by your body’s balance and lifestyle. First, let’s consider your current regimen. Shatavari, ashwagandha, and triphala are excellent choices, but it’s essential to ensure they’re being used in an aligned way with your prakriti.

Given your active lifestyle and clean diet, you’re already doing well. However, you might need to fine-tune the approach. Shatavari and ashwagandha are adaptogens that support stress reduction and sexual health. Perhaps adjust the dosage or timing. Taking shatavari more consistently in the morning could provide more balanced support. Try consuming ashwagandha at night, as it can calm vata dosha, which often exacerbates overactive mental or physical energy.

Beyond herbs, look at other factors. Ensure a cooling, calming routine before bed, avoid stimulating activities like screens, and try meditation or gentle pranayama (especially anulom vilom) to ease your mind. Sleep in a dark, quiet room, as it can help stabilize your body’s rhythms. Adequate hydration during the day is important too, but limit fluid intake just before bed.

The root may lie in your doshas. An excess pitta might be causing frequent nocturnal emissions. Include cooling foods like cucumber, yogurt or coconut water in your diet while avoiding overly spicy, sour, or heating foods. You might also check in with an Ayurvedic practitioner to explore whether specific dosha imbalances need targeted adjustments.

If nightfall continues often or affects your day-to-day wellbeing, consider consulting a healthcare professional to rule out underlying issues. Balancing the body’s energies takes patience, but with consistent adjustments and keen observation, you should see improvements over time.

I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

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. 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.

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

Dr. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Suresh Bhat
I am the Chief Consulting Physician and CEO at Ayurbhoomi Health Care, where for the past 7+ yrs I have been fully into practicing classical, pure Ayurveda without diluting its roots. My journey has been focused on working as a Rasa Vaidya — dealing with herbo-mineral formulations, rasaushadhis, and classical therapies that demand precision but also give powerful results when used properly. At Ayurbhoomi, we specialize in chronic illnesses that usually trouble people for years — arthritis, digestive disorders, skin problems, neurological issues, hormonal imbalances, even lifestyle diseases like diabetes or obesity. Many patients come after trying multiple treatments with little relief, and that’s where Ayurveda shows its strength. I create treatment plans that combine classical chikitsa, Panchakarma where needed, yoga, and pathya-apathya guidance. Sometimes simple changes work, sometimes it takes months of close monitoring — but each case has to be personalized, no shortcuts. Over the years I’ve seen how blending Ayurveda with Yoga therapy creates more sustainable outcomes, especially for pain management, stress-related conditions, and metabolic disorders. Running Ayurbhoomi also means ensuring that quality of care is consistent, that patients feel safe, and that therapies are done with proper protocols. Managing both clinical care and administrative responsibilities hasn’t always been easy, but it helped me build a clearer vision of what true Ayurveda-based healthcare can look like in today’s world. My approach is always patient-first — rooted in authentic texts, practical in application, and guided by the idea that long-term healing happens only when the root cause is corrected. Ayurveda is not just about treating a disease name, it’s about restoring balance in body & mind together. That’s what I try to keep alive in every consultation and every treatment plan.

Dr. Janvi Dhera
I am a doctor who completed CCH and CGO from Wadia hospital, and that training gave me exposure not just in theory but also in handling patients with very diverse needs. Over time I have treated many cases of chronic skin conditions, gut related disorders and also anorectal issues like piles, fissure and similar complaints. Each case felt different, no two patients respond the same way, and I learnt how to adapt treatment according to prakriti, diet habits, stress levels. Skin problems always catch attention first — psoriasis, eczema, acne that stays for years — but I understood that they often start from inside, from digestion or blood impurities. Gut issues like acidity, constipation, IBS are also common in my practice, and here small corrections in food timing or herbs can change a lot. Anorectal cases, especially piles and fissure, are painful both physically and mentally for patients, so I try to bring a treatment plan that is safe, non-invasive when possible, and focused on long term relief not just temporary fixes. Working with such variety of disorders also taught me patience. Some patients want fast results, but Ayurveda needs time to clean the root cause. I explain them carefully, sometimes repeating many times, that slow healing is stronger healing. Building that trust is important. My approach is always to combine herbal formulations, diet advice, and lifestyle correction with procedures when required, to ensure balance is restored and maintained. For me, Ayurveda is not a set of ready remedies but a flexible science that adapts to each person. Whether it’s skin, gut or anorectal problems, my focus stays on listening, understanding and guiding patients with clarity, honesty and steady support.
