Include protein and iron rich foods in your diet.

Eggs, paneer, sprouts, spinach, dates, raisins, all types of nuts, seeds, amla. Always keep the body hydrated.

1. Nilibhringadi kera tailam for head massage weekly twice or thrice. 2. Triphala powder for hair wash 3. Cap Trichup 1-0-1 after food.

Always use room temperature water for hair wash. Fenugreek and flax seed boiled water can be used for hair spray. It’s strain can be used as hair mask weekly once. You can refrigerate it. But use it in room temperature

HELLO JUPALLI VEENATHA,

You are experiencing severe hairfall, thinning and poor regrowth, along with history of acne.

In Ayurveda, this combination points to -Pitta aggravation (excess body heat, especially affecting blood and skin)-> causes acne, weakens hair roots - Vata aggravation (dryness, stres, irregular routines )-> weakens nourishment to hair follicles -> thinning, premature shedding -Kapha imbalance (oiliness, clogging of follicles)-> blocks fresh hair growth

So it is a Tridoshic imbalance with pitta predominance. The goal in not just to stop hairfall but also -Detoxify and cool the system (reduce pitta, clear impurities from blood and skin) -Nourish hair roots and tissues -improve digestion and absorption (so nutrients actually reach hair) -reduce stress, regulate sleep, and balance lifestyle (since stress worsens hair loss)

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) MAHAMANJISTHADI KASHAYA= 20 ml with warm water twice daily before meals =purifies blood, reduces acne tendency, controls pitta

2) BHRINGARAJ CHURNA + AMLA CHURNA= 1 tsp each , mixed with warm water or honey in morning =rejuvinates hair roots, promotes natural growth, strengthens follicles

3) NARASIMHA RASAYANA= 1 tsp with warm milk morning or evening =rejuvinative for hair, skin, nails, improves digestion and absorption

4) TRIPALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water =gentle detox, improves gut health, clears toxins

5) SARASWATARISHTA= 15ml with warm water after meals =calms mind, reduces stress- related hair fal

DURATION= 3 months minimum for visible stable results

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) NEELIBRINGADI TAILA= warm and massage scalp twice a week , leave 1 hr, then wash with mild herbal shampoo =strengthens root, prevents dandruff, cools scalp, nourishes hair

2) HERBAL HAIR WASH POWDER= shikakai + reetha + hibiscus + fenugreek- instead of chemical shampoo =gentle cleansing without stripping natural oils

3) ALOE VERA PULP WITH FEW DROPS OF LEMON applied on scalp once weekly =reduces itching, dandruff, balances oiliness

YOGA ASANAS- improve circulation to scalp, balance hormones -adhomukhasana - vajrasana improves digestion -sarvangasana -setu bandhasana

PRANAYAM -Nadi sodhana= balances doshas, reduces stress -Sheetali and sheetkari= reduce pitta, helpful for acne + hair -Bhramari= relaxes nervous system

MEDITATION -10-15 minutes daily-> reduces stress hormones that trigger hairfall

DIET -fresh fruits= amla, pomegrante, papaya, coconut water -vegetables= gourds, cucumber, carrots, spinach -Proteins= moong dal, sprouted beans, panner, eggs (if you eat) -Fats= ghee, sesame oil, flaxseeds, walnuts

AVOID -excess spicy, oily, fried foods -junk/processed foods, sugary items -overuse of coffee/tea, alcohol -very late nights, irregular meals

LIFESTYLE -regular sleep 10-11 pm max bedtime -gentle head massage before sleep with few drops of coconut oil -protect scalp from harsh sun, polluted air

HOME REMEDIES -Amla juice= 20 ml daily empty stomach -Fenugreek seeds= soak overnight grind, apply paste on scalp weekly -Onion juice= any diluted (mixed with aloe vera) on scalp once weekly for regrowth -Curry leaves= boil in coconut oil, strain, use as hair oil

Your hairloss is not permenent- it’s the body signaling imbalance after shifting environment, diet and climate. Acne already improving is a positive sign. With 3-6 months of consistent internal medicines, external care, and diet lifestyle discipline, you should seee controlled hairfall, stronger roots, and gradual regrowth

Patience is key= Hair growth slowly (about 1 cm per month), so visible changes will be step by step.

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

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.

1) Bhringamalakadi Taila - extly apply and massage for 10 min.-2 times

2) Jeevamrita Leha or Chyavanaprasha Leha-1 tsf- 2 times after food with milk

3)- Shuddha Shilajatu-250mg + Saptamrita Loha - 500 + bhringaraja Churna -3gm with ghee and honey after food 2 times a day

selected hair treatment for three months before you will see results.

Diet and Lifestyle

Pathya: Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, nutritious food, adequate sleep

Apathya: Avoid salt, sugar, tobacco, and alcohol. Overconsumption of salt and sugar increases dandruff and hairloss. Avoid large amounts of vitamin A.

Avoid strong soaps, shampoo or hair sprays. Only use mild castile soaps. Hats and wigs are apt to cause hair to fall out faster, since they limit the air to the scalp. Avoid tension, stress, worry and hurry

Hello Veenatha ji,

I understand your concern. Moving to a new city, especially a place like Hyderabad with different water, food, and climate, can trigger sudden hair fall, thinning, and slow regrowth. Since you are just 22, with no chronic illness, the good news is that with the right care, diet, and Ayurvedic remedies, your hair can regain strength and thickness.

Along with your acne treatment, we need to focus on balancing Pitta & Vata dosha, nourishing the scalp, and supporting new hair growth.

✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

✅ INTERNAL MEDICATION

1. Amla Powder 1 tsp powder with warm water morning (rich in Vitamin C, strengthens hair roots).

2. Triphala at night – 1 tsp with warm water (improves digestion & detox, indirectly reducing hair fall).

3. Bhringraj capsules 1-0-1 after food – (known as “Keshraj” – king of hair herbs).

✅ EXTERNAL CARE

👉 Oil Massage (2–3 times per week)

Use Neelibhringadi Taila or Bhringraj Taila, warm slightly and massage gently into scalp. Leave for 30–45 minutes before mild herbal shampoo wash. Improves blood flow, strengthens roots, and reduces dandruff.

👉 Hair Pack (weekly)

Mix Amla + Bhringraj + Hibiscus powder with curd or aloe vera gel. Apply on scalp for 20–30 mins, then wash off. Helps reduce hair thinning and promotes regrowth.

✅DIET MODIFICATION

✅Include Amla, sesame seeds, walnuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds, coconut, ghee, leafy greens, curry leaves.

Daily warm milk with ½ tsp ghee or almond milk for nourishment.

Fresh fruits like pomegranate, papaya, guava, citrus fruits.

❌ Avoid

Excess spicy, oily, fried, and junk foods (aggravate Pitta). Cold drinks, carbonated beverages, late-night eating. Stress & irregular sleep (major triggers for hair loss).

✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

Wash hair with soft / filtered water if possible – hard water worsens hair fall.

Practice Yoga / Pranayama – especially Anulom Vilom & Shitali – to balance stress & hormones.

Sleep 7–8 hours daily – essential for hair regrowth cycle.

Avoid frequent chemical treatments, straighteners, or harsh shampoos.

✅WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

With consistent care, you can notice reduction in hair fall in 6–8 weeks.

Visible regrowth & thickness usually takes 3–4 months of regular practice.

With steady care, your hair fall will reduce and natural regrowth will improve.

Wishing you healthy, thick, and shining hair! 😊

Warm regards, Dr. Snehal Vidhate

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.

Hair fall and thinning can sometimes be linked to environmental changes, diet, or stress. Since you recently moved, it’s possible these factors might be influencing your hair health. In Ayurveda, hair health is closely connected to your body’s dosha balance. An imbalance, particularly in Vata and Pitta doshas, can lead to hair fall and thinning.

To address this, a balanced diet and lifestyle adjustments play a key role. Start by including incorporating foods such as amla (Indian gooseberry), rich in vitamin C and antioxidants. You could have amla juice or include it in your diet (fresh or powdered form).

Sesame seeds and almonds are also beneficial; both contain nutrients that promote hair growth and strength. Have a handful of these nuts daily.

For topical treatments, you can regularly massage your scalp with warm bhringraj oil or coconut oil. This helps improve blood circulation and nourishes the hair follicles. Doing this 2-3 times a week might reduce hair fall.

Avoid going to bed with your hair wet, as damp hair is more vulnerable to damage. Use a soft towel to gently dry your hair. Reduce the use of harsh shampoos and chemicals, instead, opt for natural cleansers like reetha (soapnut) and shikakai, which are traditionally used in Ayurveda for hair care.

Finally, reducing stress can positively affect hair health, so consider incorporating yoga or meditation into your routine at least three times a week.

If these measures do not lead to improvement, or if the hair fall is excessive, it’s best to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and tailored guidance. Hair needs patience and consistent care, but with proper attention, you should see gradual improvement.

You’re experiencing a common issue that can be influenced by several factors, such as changes in location, lifestyle, diet, or climate. In Siddha-Ayurvedic terms, hair fall and thinning often relate to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which governs metabolic activities and affects skin and hair health. The move to Hyderabad with its specific climate and water quality might have disrupted your dosha balance. Let’s explore several things you can try.

First, examine your diet: increase intake of food that pacify Pitta like fresh fruits (especially melons and grapes), vegetables (cucumber, squash), and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. Avoid spicy, fried, or excessively hot foods that might aggravate Pitta. Include amla (Indian gooseberry) in your diet—it is rich in vitamin C and supports hair growth.

For external application, try using bhringraj oil or coconut oil infused with hibiscus flowers for scalp massages. This practice, done 2-3 times a week, can nourish the scalp and enhance circulation to the hair follicles.

Incorporating lifestyle practices is equally important. Ensure you get enough sleep and manage stress levels; both are crucial to maintaining hair health. Practicing pranayama (breathing exercises) may help reduce stress and balance your body’s doshas.

If there’s chronic hair fall despite these efforts, please consult with a healthcare professional to assess any underlying conditions or nutrient deficiencies. Severe acne, though improving, may also need monitoring to ensure they aren’t causing further dosha imbalances or affecting hair health indirectly. Adjusting these aspects gradually should lead to improvement.

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.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
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. 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. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

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. 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. 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.

I am someone who kinda grew into Panchakarma without planning it much at first... just knew I wanted to understand the deeper layers of Ayurveda, not just the surface stuff. I did both my graduation and post-grad from Govt. Ayurveda Medical College & Hospital in Bangalore — honestly that place shaped a lot of how I think about healing, especially long-term healing. After my PG, I started working right away as an Assistant Professor & consultant in the Panchakarma dept at a private Ayurveda college. Teaching kinda made me realise how much we ourselves learn by explaining things to others... and watching patients go through their detox journeys—real raw healing—was where I got hooked. Now, with around 6 years of clinical exp in Panchakarma practice, I'm working as an Associate Professor, still in the same dept., still learning, still teaching. I focus a lot on individualised protocols—Ayurveda isn't one-size-fits-all and honestly, that’s what makes it tricky but also beautiful. Right now I’m also doing my PhD, it’s on female infertility—a topic I feel not just academically drawn to but personally invested in, cause I see how complex and layered it gets for many women. Managing that along with academics and patient care isn’t super easy, I won’t lie, but it kinda fuels each other. The classroom work helps my clinical thinking, and my clinical work makes me question things in research more sharply. There's a lot I still wanna explore—especially in how we explain Panchakarma better to newer patients. Many people still think it's just oil massage or some spa thing but the depth is wayyy beyond that. I guess I keep hoping to make that clarity come through—whether it’s in class or during a consult or even during a quick OPD chat.

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. 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. 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.
