No need to worry,

First of all avoid excessive spicy, sour,salty, oily food,sesame seeds etc.

Start taking these medications, 1.Khadirarishta 20ml with equal amount of Lukewarm water just after having meal twice in a day. 2.Kaishore guggulu 2-0-2 for chewing. 3.Gandhak rasayana 1-1-1

*Massage your face with NALPAMARADI OIL thrice in a week. *Massage your face with few drops of kumkumadi tailam at bed time only and then wash it off with cold water.

Follow up after 45 days.

Hello Sapna

I can understand your concern about acne that keeps coming back, plus scars and marks. But yes, with natural & consistent care, you can heal acne and reduce scars/blemishes gradually. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

☑️ INTERNAL MEDICATION (balancing hormones, gut & skin)

1 Sarivasavam 30ml-0-30ml after food 2 Manjisthadi ks tab 2-0-2 after food 3 Tiktakam ghrita 1 tsp at bed time followed by warm water

✅ DIET MODIFICATION (most important!)

Avoid: junk, fried, dairy, excess sweets, cold drinks. Include : warm home-cooked food, green vegetables, fruits (papaya, pomegranate, apple), soaked almonds/walnuts. Daily: 1 tsp flaxseed or chia seeds (balances hormones, reduces inflammation). Drink: 2.5–3 L lukewarm water.

✅ EXTERNAL. CARE

✅ For active acne (pimples):

👉Apply Neem + Tulsi paste (fresh leaves if possible, else powder + rose water) on acne spots, wash after 15 min.

👉Use Multani mitti + rose water pack once a week (not daily; too drying).

✅ FOR SCARS AND BLEMEISHES

👉Apply Aloe vera gel (fresh or pure store-bought) overnight — daily.

👉Mix Sandalwood powder + rose water → apply 20 min, wash (3–4 times/week).

👉Kumkumadi tailam (Ayurvedic face oil) — 2–3 drops massage at night, wash after 1 hr (test on small area first since your skin is sensitive).

✅ For dark spots & marks:

Licorice (Mulethi) powder + honey pack on spots — helps lighten pigmentation.

Potato slice / juice dabbed on dark marks, 10 min daily.

✅ LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

Sleep: 7–8 hrs daily. Poor sleep = more acne. Stress management: Yoga, meditation, pranayama (deep breathing). Stress directly flares acne. Exercise: 30 min daily walk/exercise → balances hormones & clears skin. Never pick/squeeze acne — worsens scars.

✅WHAT TO EXPECT

Active acne reduction: 1–2 months. Blemishes & dark spots lightening: 3–6 months. Scars softening/fading: 6–12 months (patience needed; natural healing is slower but safe).

Wish you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

Diet & Lifestyle Tips - Avoid spicy, oily, and fried foods: These aggravate Pitta and worsen acne. - Favor cooling foods: Cucumber, bottle gourd, coconut water, and leafy greens. - Stay hydrated: 10–12 glasses of water daily to flush toxins. - Sleep early: Skin heals best between 10 PM and 2 AM.

- Pranayama: Practice Sheetali and Anulom Vilom to cool the system. - Yoga: Gentle poses like Viparita Karani and Child’s Pose support detox and hormonal balance

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 sapna ,

I hear you. Having acne that keeps coming back despite trying many medicines and even procedures like leech therapy can feel very discouraging. The fact that scars have formed makes it more emotionally draining. But don’t worry with the right internal balance and gentle external care, your skin can slowly heal and scars can soften. Let me explain in a simple way.

Your skin is showing acne again and again because the root imbalance inside your body (mainly hormones + digestion) is not yet fully corrected. That’s why the moment you stop medicine, acne returns.

Since you had PCOS earlier, your skin is more sensitive to hormonal fluctuations. Past TB medicines and long treatments may also have weakened your digestion and skin healing. Scars appear because acne pores get inflamed and damaged deeply. So the plan should be: Correct digestion & hormones from inside. Prevent new pimples so no fresh scars form. Heal existing scars slowly with safe, natural methods.

1. Internal Medicines (to take regularly for 2–3 months) Saraswatarishta – 15 ml with equal water after meals, twice daily (balances hormones + digestion). Gandhak Rasayan – 1 tab twice daily after meals (purifies skin, reduces pus-filled acne). Manjishtadi Kwatha – 20 ml with equal water, twice daily before food (blood purifier, reduces marks). Aloe vera juice – 10 ml morning empty stomach (improves gut and skin healing).

2. External Care (gentle, no harsh products) Face wash: use plain green gram flour (moong dal powder) or masoor dal powder with water instead of soap. Scar care: apply Kumkumadi Taila (2–3 drops at night, massage gently). This gradually lightens scars and gives glow. For active acne: make paste of neem + turmeric powder with rose water, apply only on pimples (not whole face) once daily.

3. Food & Lifestyle Avoid oily, fried, very spicy foods and packed junk food. Reduce rice at night, prefer light dinner (moong dal soup, vegetable soup, chapati). Take more fresh vegetables, fruits, soaked almonds, and sesame seeds. Drink warm water through the day — avoids toxin build-up. Sleep 10–11 pm, as late-night sleep worsens hormones and acne.

Healing scars and preventing new acne takes patience — but it is possible. Ayurveda works gradually by correcting the root (hormones, digestion, and blood purification). If you follow this for 3–4 months consistently, you will notice: Pimples reducing in number. No new scars forming. Old scars slowly lightening.

Remember: scars never vanish overnight, but with Kumkumadi taila + internal balance, they fade naturally.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

To address acne, acne scars, blemishes, and dark spots naturally, Ayurveda focuses on balancing doshas, particularly Pitta, which is often responsible for skin issues when imbalanced. Adopting a Pitta-pacifying lifestyle and diet can be beneficial.

Start with dietary changes. Favor cooling, soothing foods like cucumbers, coriander, and cilantro. Incorporate aloe vera juice and amla into your daily routine, as these help in calming Pitta. Avoid spicy, oily, and fried foods, as well as sour and fermented items. Ensure regular meals at consistent times to support digestive fire, or agni. Hydration is key, so drink lukewarm water with a few mint leaves occasionally.

For topical treatments, turmeric is known for its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. Create a paste with turmeric powder and organic honey, apply it to the affected areas, leave it on for 10-15 minutes, and then wash off gently with water. Do this 2-3 times a week. Sandalwood powder mixed with rose water can be used similarly for its calming effect on the skin.

Consider Abhyanga (self-massage) with coconut oil or a Pitta-balancing oil like olive oil, which can be soothing and nourishing. Perform this 2-3 times a week before bathing.

Maintain a regular sleep schedule. Aim for 7-8 hours of restful sleep, as poor sleep can worsen skin conditions. Yoga and meditation are beneficial for reducing stress, which can also trigger acne flare-ups. Attempt Simhasana (Lion Pose) or Pranayama breathing exercises.

Additionally, an Ayurvedic physician may recommend herbal supplements like Neem or Manjishtha, under their guidance, as they can help in detoxifying blood and reducing skin issues. It’s important to give these approaches some time to show effect, so patience and consistency are crucial in achieving desired results naturally.

For acne and its related concerns like scars and blemishes, addressing the imbalance in your doshas can be a key step. Acne is mostly linked with aggravation of Pitta dosha, combined perhaps with some Kapha elements, that can result in impurities accumulating in the skin.

1. Diet and Lifestyle: Focus on a Pitta-pacifying diet by reducing spicy, oily, and fermented foods. Include cooling, bitter, and astringent tastes. Stay hydrated with plain water and herbal teas like neem or turmeric-infused ones. Try to keep a balanced routine, ensuring enough rest and regular routines to support digestion.

2. Herbal Remedies: Using a mix of natural ingredients can help soothe the skin. A face mask of sandalwood powder with rose water or aloe vera gel applied directly can be calming. These are traditionally known for their skin-healing properties.

3. Internal Cleansing: Consider incorporating Triphala, a blend of three fruits, which helps cleanse the digestive tract and support overall detoxification. Consuming it regularly at bedtime with warm water can be beneficial for your skin.

4. Topical Treatments: Regularly applying turmeric and honey mask can help in reducing the appearance of scars due to their antibacterial and scar-lightening properties. You can make this paste fresh and apply a few times a week.

5. Daily Activities: Ensure you engage in regular moderate exercise like yoga or walking to help improve circulation and support the body’s detoxification processes.

Adjustments and herbal remedies can require some patience. However, the key is to maintain consistency and observe how your body responds. If any severe reactions occur, or the condition persists, it is important to seek guidance from a healthcare professional.

Dr. Suchin M
I am someone who’s honestly just really drawn to how deep Ayurveda goes—like really deep—not just treating what’s showing on the surface but getting into what’s actually causing it underneath. I really believe that even those complicated lifestyle diseases, stuff like diabetes or BP or obesity that people think they’ll just have to live with forever, can totally be managed with Ayurvedic principles. Not magically or overnight, but through proper diagnosis, diet tweaks, daily habits, and herbs that actually work if you use them right. That’s the part I focus on—making Ayurveda work practically, not just in theory. After finishing my BAMS, I’ve worked with chronic conditions for over a year now in clinical setups. Mostly patients dealing with long-term stuff that doesn’t go away with one pill—usually the kind of disorders rooted in stress, wrong food choices or too much sitting. I’ve seen that if you really listen first, like actually listen—hear their story, feel where they’re coming from—half the work’s already done. Then when you assess their Prakriti, figure out where the doshas are out of balance, and connect that with their history (plus any modern test reports they might bring), it gives you this full picture that’s so valuable. My treatment plans aren't one-size-fits-all. Sometimes it’s about bringing agni back into balance. Sometimes just clearing aam helps. Most people are shocked that things like bloating or even periods issues can shift just by aligning food and herbs with their constitution. And if the case is acute or there’s a red flag, I have no problem referring for emergency allopathic care. Integrative care makes sense—Ayurveda doesn’t have to be isolated from modern medicine. My aim? It's not just to fix a symptom. I want people to feel at ease in their own body again. To build habits they don’t need to break later. To know their own rhythm, not just follow some generic health trend. That’s what Ayurvedic healing means to me... not perfect, but real.

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

Dr. 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. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. 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. Sara Garg
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. 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. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.
