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.

I understand you’re looking for guidance based on Ayurveda for your mother’s condition. Her situation, with a tumor in the cervix that has spread to the pelvic region, causing severe pain, leg swelling, and bowel issues, is very serious and requires a comprehensive, integrated approach.

Ayurveda can be a complementary therapy to help manage symptoms and improve her quality of life, but it should be done in conjunction with conventional medical treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery, as advised by her oncologist.

Ayurvedic Perspective on Cancer and Symptoms In Ayurveda, cancer is often described as Granthi (minor tumor) or Arbuda (major tumor). It’s seen as a profound imbalance of the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), with a particular emphasis on the aggravation of Vata and Kapha.

Kapha aggravation can lead to the overgrowth of tissues and the formation of the tumor mass itself.

Vata aggravation is responsible for the pain, dryness, and obstruction. The leg pain, swelling, and constipation are classic signs of a severely imbalanced Vata dosha.

The Ayurvedic approach would focus on three main areas:

Balancing the Doshas: Primarily Vata and Kapha, to reduce the growth and spread of the tumor and alleviate symptoms.

Detoxification (Shodhana): To remove toxins and accumulated waste (ama) that contribute to the disease.

Strengthening and Rejuvenating (Rasayana): To build the body’s strength and immunity (Ojas) to tolerate the disease and its treatments.

Managing Her Specific Symptoms with an Ayurvedic Approach

1. Abdominal Pain and Leg Pain/Swelling (Iliac Compression) The pain and swelling you describe are likely due to the tumor compressing nerves and blood vessels, including the iliac vein. This is a very serious complication. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this is a severe Vata imbalance, with obstruction (srotorodha).

Warm Oil Massage (Abhyanga): Gentle massage with warm, Vata-pacifying oils like sesame oil or medicated oils like Mahanarayana oil can help. This should be done very gently on the legs and back to soothe the nerves and improve circulation.

Lifestyle: Keeping the legs elevated when resting can help with the swelling. Simple, gentle movements (if she is able) can also help with circulation.

2. Constipation (Tumor Mass Attached to Intestine) The bowel obstruction is a critical issue that requires immediate medical attention. It’s essential that her doctors are managing this. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this is a type of Pureesha Avrita Vata, where the Vata dosha is blocked by a physical obstruction (the tumor mass).

Ayurveda emphasizes a gentle approach to constipation, especially in a case like this.

Diet: Focus on warm, cooked, and easily digestible foods. Avoid raw vegetables, dry foods, and cold drinks. Soups, stews, and well-cooked vegetables are excellent choices.

Hydration: Ensure she is drinking plenty of warm water.

Herbal Remedies: Certain mild laxatives and herbs can be used, but extreme care is needed due to the tumor’s location. A very gentle approach with something like Triphala

Abdominal Massage: A gentle, clockwise abdominal massage can help stimulate bowel movement, but this is a very sensitive area and should only be done with extreme caution.

The Importance of Integrated Care Given the severity of your mother’s condition, the most effective path forward is an integrated one.

Prioritize her conventional treatment: Ensure she is following all recommendations from her oncologist. This includes any procedures, chemotherapy, or radiation, which are critical for her survival and to reduce the size of the tumor.

Do not attempt to self-medicate or use any strong herbal remedies

The wrong herbs or therapies could interact with her medication or worsen her symptoms. The goal of Ayurveda in this situation is to support her body, reduce pain, and improve her quality of life alongside the primary medical treatment.

Hellooo namaste.,

I can understand how painful and worrying this situation must be for you and your mother. Let me explain it clearly.

Your mother has a cervical tumor that has already spread in the pelvic area and is now pressing on nearby organs and blood vessels. Because of this:

•	The intestine is getting compressed, leading to difficulty in passing stools.
•	The pelvic veins are also compressed, which is causing swelling and pain in the legs.
•	Abdominal and pelvic pain is mainly due to the tumor pressing on nerves and tissues.

In such cases, this is not something that can be managed by Ayurveda alone. Immediate oncology (cancer specialist) care is absolutely necessary. Depending on the stage, they may suggest surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy to reduce the tumor load and relieve compression.

Ayurveda can support with • Pain relief and comfort measures • Digestive support to ease constipation (e.g., light diet, mild laxatives if advised) • General immunity and strength building

Please do not delay consulting a cancer specialist (oncologist) immediately. Since the tumor is already spreading and blocking stools, waiting longer will increase complications. Ayurveda can be supportive later for strength, digestion, and pain, but the primary and urgent step is modern medical cancer care.

Investigations needed right away: • MRI Pelvis / Abdomen (if not already done) • Biopsy / Histopathology (to confirm type and stage) • Blood tests (CBC, Renal & Liver function, Tumor markers if advised)

I want to reassure you you are doing the right thing by asking and seeking guidance early. Please take her to a good cancer hospital as the first step. After the emergency treatment is started, I can guide you with supportive Ayurvedic medicines for pain, digestion, and strength.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Hello Malkiya ji, I truly understand your worry. Your mother is going through a very challenging phase, and it is natural to look for safe options when surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation are not possible.

In Ayurveda, treatment for such advanced conditions needs a very personalized approach after carefully understanding her reports, stage of disease, present strength, digestion, and associated symptoms.

So personal consulation is needed

Therefore, it is not safe to suggest a single ready-made medicine without a proper consultation.

. 👉 I strongly suggest for a detailed consultation where her reports and case history can be studied properly.

Wishing your mother comfort, strength, and healing Dr. Snehal Vidhate

HELLO MALKIYA,

-Cervical cancer has grown big and spread into the pelvic area -Because of its size and location, it is pressing on nearby structures -Intestines-> stool not passing properly (obstruction or narrowing) -Nerves and blood vessels in the pelvis-> leg swelling, pain, heaviness -Pelvic organs-> continuous abdominal pain, discomfort

In modern medicine, when surgery , chemotherapy, or radiation are not possible, the aim becomes palliation : controlling pain, reducing swelling, and maintaining comfort

In Ayurveda, we align with this- not claiming to cure, but to support quality of life

TREATMENT GOALS -relieve pain and swelling in abdomen and legs -ease bowel movement as much as possible without causing blockage complications -support digestion and energy so she feels less weak -calm the mind and help her sleep better -prevent complications like severe constipation, infection, or pressure sores from immobility

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals with warm water =traditionally used for growths, glandular swellings, tumors

2) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at night =mild bowel regulation, antioxidants

3) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night =for strength, reducing fatigue, calming nerves

4) GUDUCHI GHAN VATI= 2 tabs twice daily =immunity, liver support

5) DASHMOOLA KASHAYA= 25 ml + warm water twice daily before meals =pain and inflammation in pelvic/leg area

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

1) NIRGUNDI TAILA= gently apply on legs for swelling and pain, 1-2 times daily

2) Warm fomentation hot water bag- on legs or lower abdomen for pain relief

3) CASTOR OIL PACK ON ABDOMEN= mild warmth , can ease cramping

DIET AND LIFESTYLE -Easily digestible foods= rice gruel , moong dal soup, boiled vegetables, vegetable clear soups, thin khichdi -Avoid= oily, fried, heavy panner/curd, meat, bakery, foods -Fluids= warm water, light herbal teas- ginger, cumin, fennel -constipation support= soaked raisins, stewed apples, or small spoon of ghee in warm milk at night

LIFESTYLE -keep her bed comfortable, change position often to prevent sores - elevate legs with a pillow to reduce swelling - gentle assisted walking if possible

YOGA AND PRANAYAM (gentle, only of strength allows) -Deep breathing= simple anulom vilom 5 minutes -Ujjayi breathing for calming mind and sleep -No strong asanas= only gentle stretching, guided relaxation (shavasana)

HOME REMEDIES -turmeric milk at night - cumin coriander fennel water -warm castor oil rub on legs for pain/swelling

Ayurveda here should be seen as supportive care- to ease pain, maintain digestion, reduce swelling, and bring peace of mind. It won’t shrink the tumor drastically at this stage, but it can make her more comfortable , improve sleep , and help her feel cared for

The most important thing is comfort + dignity. Even small measures- warm oil massage, gentle breathing, light nourishing food- can make her feel better every day. And when pain or constipation get severe, please don’t hesitate to consult doctor on emergency basis

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Hello dear.

I can understand your concern for your mother and also your worry about the ill effects of modern treatment technique, but you need to accept the fact that no single medicine therapy can be complete in itself. Ayurved has also described various surgical procedures and so ayurveda also says you need surgical interventions in some cases

As you mentioned your mother is facing issues with the pelvic region, intestines and also leg is paining and swelling you should go for surgery and chemo.

You can use ayurvedic medicines as a support to the ill effects by chemo and radiation. You need personal consultation for the same.

Broadly you can use

Tab. Kanchanar Guggul 2 tabs twice a day before food Tab. Chandraprabha vati 2 tabs twice a day before food Syp. Dashmoolarishta + Amrutarishta 3 tsp twice a day before food

Based on Ayurvedic principles, it’s crucial to address the root cause of health issues like tumors by balancing the doshas, especially if conventional treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation aren’t possible. In Ayurveda, tumors are often associated with Kapha dosha imbalance, leading to excessive growth and accumulation. Managing this requires a comprehensive approach.

Firstly, focus on pacifying Kapha and improving agni, or digestive fire. Trikatu churna, a combination of dry ginger, black pepper, and long pepper, can help stimulate digestion and metabolism. You can give your mother a pinch of Trikatu with honey before meals, but consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for correct dosages considering her condition.

For reducing the tumor mass specifically, Ayurveda often recommends herbs like Ashwagandha and Guggulu. These herbs are known for their properties that can help in shrinking tumors. Kanchnar Guggulu is particularly beneficial in managing cysts and tumors. One can take two tablets of Kanchnar Guggulu twice daily with warm water on an empty stomach, after a doctor’s consultation for precision dosing.

Dietary adjustments are vital. Avoid heavy, greasy, and excessively sweet foods that aggravate Kapha. Incorporate bitter, pungent, and astringent tastes. Foods like leafy greens, cabbage, and turmeric can help manage the dosha imbalance. A warm, lightly spiced meal plan would be ideal.

Access to Yoga might also be helpful, focusing on asanas that promote circulation and reduce stress. Gentle exercises can aid lymphatic drainage and support in alleviating leg swelling and pain.

Addressing constipation is equally important due to the intestinal attachment. Triphala churna can be helpful for supporting bowel movements. Take it in the evening with warm water, but start with small doses to see how her system responds.

It’s essential for your mother to stay hydrated, drink warm water and teas made from ginger or cumin seeds throughout the day to aid digestion and detoxification. However, do ensure to consult with a qualified Ayurvedic doctor or oncologist familiar with integrative approaches. Immediate professional medical attention is paramount, given her symptoms and conditions like potential intestinal blockage or severe compression.

In the context of treating a cervical tumor that has progressed to surrounding areas, it’s essential first to understand that any Ayurvedic approach should complement, rather than replace, critical medical treatments. Given your mother’s condition, where conventional surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation are not options, Ayurveda can support her body by addressing imbalances. Her symptoms indicate a pronounced aggravation of Vata and possibly some Kapha imbalances linked with obstruction and pain.

Begin with dietary adjustments. Focus on easy-to-digest, warm, cooked foods that pacify Vata like soups, stews, and porridges made with rice or millets. Avoid cold, dry, and raw foods as well as anything overly pungent or sour which may aggravate her condition. Encourage her to have small, frequent meals throughout the day to ensure smoother digestion.

Specific Siddha-Ayurvedic herbs may help to support digestion and potentially reduce mass pressure. Trikatu, a blend of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper, can stimulate digestive fire but should be used cautiously given her digestive sensitivity. Ashwagandha might be considered for its immune-supportive and adaptogenic qualities, although its effect on tumors is more indirect.

For dealing with constipation, a gentle herbal remedy like Triphala can be supportive; take warm water infused with Triphala powder at bedtime to aid bowel movement. This can help to relieve pressure and discomfort by facilitating the regular elimination of stools.

To address her leg swelling and aid circulation, daily warm oil massages (avoid the tumor area) focusing on the legs might help, using oils like sesame or mustard oil, which are Vata-pacifying. It would be crucial to maintain a dialogue with healthcare practitioners who understand her full medical context, and ensure she doesn’t miss any critical interventions. If any new or worsening symptoms arise, seek immediate medical support.

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. 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.

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

Dr. 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. 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. 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. Ramkabir Mayankkumar Rushibhai
I am a third generation Ayurveda doctor, working in this field for many years and learning the knowledge passed down in my family line. I have been treating patients with different long term health problems, specially those who are tired of repeated medicines and want a more natural way to heal. My focus is mainly on understanding the root cause of the disease, not just the symptoms, because I truly belive healing should happen from inside, not just temporary relief. I work closely with patients and try to understand their lifestyle, food habits, stress levels and seasonal imbalances. Based on that, I suggest ayurvedic medicines along with simple daily routines and diet changes that can actually be followed in real life. Many people come to me after trying many treatments, and slowly we work together toward better health. I do not believe in one medicine for everyone. Every body is different, and treatment should also be personal. Over the years I have treated many long standing conditions with patience, consistency and proper guidance. I still keep learning everyday, because Ayurveda is vast and there is always something more to understand. My aim is to help people live a healthier, balanced life using authentic Ayurvedic principles, simple remedies and honest guidance, without overcomplicating things.

I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

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

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. Suraj Amber
I am practicing Ayurveda for about 8 years now, feels strange saying that because honestly the learning never stops. My work is all about finding balance in the body, not in some abstract way, but literally working with each person’s unique prakriti and the vikriti they’re dealing with at that moment. I follow the classical principles — herbal formulations, Panchakarma therapies, diet corrections, lifestyle tweaks — but nothing is “one size fits all”. Each treatment plan is shaped by the person infront of me, their health history, and the small details you only catch when you really listen. Over time I’ve worked with people dealing with digestion troubles, joint pains, hormonal shifts, stress-related health dips, and even stubborn chronic stuff that didn’t respond much to other methods. My approach is to go for the root cause first, because treating just the symptoms feels like putting tape over a crack... it hides it for a while but doesn’t fix it. That’s also why I focus on prevention — if you stop the imbalance before it grows, you save a lot of pain later. I keep my learning alive by reading classical Ayurvedic texts and joining continuing education whenever I can fit it in (sometimes late nights with too much chai). And I try to pass that clarity on to patients, explaining why a certain herb or therapy is chosen, what changes they might notice, and how they can keep supporting themselves after treatment ends. For me, this is more than just work. It’s a way of living… making choices every day that keep the mind, body, and emotions in some kind of harmony. My goal is still the same as day one — offer care that’s authentic, safe, and actually works for the long run, while making sure the person feels heard and understood through the whole process.
