Dr. Khushboo
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.

Please visit nearest Ayurvedic practitioner so they would perform a detailed diagnosis based on your unique body type (Prakriti) and the nature of your symptoms to identify the root cause of your problems

Is Virechana for Me? Virechana is one of the five primary Panchakarma therapies. It is a controlled, therapeutic purgation that is specifically aimed at eliminating excess Pitta dosha from the body, particularly from the liver and gallbladder.

Virechana is suitable for you if you have conditions associated with Pitta imbalance, such as:

Gallbladder stones

Fatty liver

Chronic digestive issues like hyperacidity and gastritis

Skin disorders like acne, eczema, or psoriasis

PCOS (as it often involves a Pitta component)

Chronic fevers or inflammation

How to know if it’s right for you:

The only way to determine if Virechana is suitable for you is to consult with a nearest qualified Ayurvedic practitioner. They will assess your individual constitution (Prakriti) and the nature of your imbalance (Vikriti) through a thorough diagnosis. They will also consider any contraindications, such as severe dehydration, pregnancy, or old age. The practitioner will guide you through the entire process, which includes a preparatory phase (Purva Karma) and a post-therapy regimen (Samsarjana Karma), to ensure the treatment is safe and effective.

hello Anuja ,

Thank you for sharing everything so clearly. Let me explain simply.

You have a few issues together gallbladder stones, fatty liver grade 1, PCOS, and abdominal pain. These show that your digestion and metabolism are not working at their best, and your body is storing more toxins (ama) and fat than it should. In Ayurveda, when agni (digestive fire) is weak, liver and gallbladder suffer first, periods get disturbed (PCOS), and slowly fat metabolism slows down. A detox like Virechana (purgation) is very helpful in such conditions because it cleans the liver, gallbladder, and intestines deeply. But it should only be done after proper Deepana Pachana (boosting digestion and clearing ama) and under supervision.

You can know Virechana suits you .,

You have good strength (not too weak or underweight). Your digestion is not severely poor (no severe constipation/diarrhea daily).

No active infection, fever, or uncontrolled illness is present. A vaidya will usually prepare your body (snehapana and swedana) and only then give virechana. Done properly, it can benefit gallstones, fatty liver, skin, PCOS, and detox together.

Ama Pachana (first 10–14 days) Hingvastaka Churna – ½ tsp with warm water before meals, twice daily. Trikatu Churna – ½ tsp with honey after lunch, once daily.

Internal Medicines (2–3 months) Varunadi Kashayam – 15 ml with equal water, twice daily before food (for gallstones and PCOS). Arogyavardhini Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after food (for fatty liver and metabolism). Kumaryasava – 15 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner (for PCOS and periods). Punarnavadi Mandura – 1 tablet twice daily after food (for liver and swelling).

External support Abdominal massage with warm castor oil twice a week. Hot fomentation on abdomen for pain relief.

Lifestyle & Diet

Take warm water through the day. Avoid fried, oily, junk, red meat, and too much dairy. Eat more vegetables, gourds, green leaves, and seasonal fruits. Include turmeric, ginger, cumin, and garlic in cooking. Walk 30 min daily, avoid sitting too long. Sleep well and keep stress low (direct link to PCOS and liver).

Investigations

Liver function test (LFT). Lipid profile. Hormonal profile (LH, FSH, AMH, Testosterone, Prolactin). Ultrasound abdomen and pelvis (follow-up for stones and fatty liver). Fasting blood sugar and insulin.

My advice: Virechana can suit you, but only after proper preparation.

Please don’t attempt it at home. Start with these simple medicines and diet first, and once digestion improves, then Panchakarma like Virechana can be safely planned for you.

Warm regards,

Dr. Karthika

I believe that healing begins with alignment, and I work closely with my patients to bring the body, mind, and spirit into harmony using personalized, constitution-based interventions. Whether managing chronic conditions or guiding preventive health, I aim to empower patients through Ayurvedic wisdom, offering not just relief but a sustainable path to well-being.

HELLO ANUJA,

1) GALL BALDDER STONES -Stones form when bile (a digestive juice) becomes thick, sticky, and crystallises. -Ayurveda= linked to excess pitta (heat, bile) mixing with kapha (mucus, heaviness)

2) FATTY LIVER (GRADE 1) -Early stage= fat deposits in the liver cells, but no major damage yet -Ayurveda= reflects a sluggish agni(digestive fire), leading to ama (toxic build up)

3) PCOS -Ovarian cysts, irregular cycles, weight gain, hormonal imbalance -Ayurveda= imbalance of kapha (heaviness, cysts) and vata (irregular cycles, hormones)

4) ABDOMINAL PAIN (LEFT SIDE) -Could be colon (constipation/gas), spleen or even kidney. Needs confirmation by imaging

TREATMENT GOALS -GALLSTONES= prevent further growth, reduce inflammation, encourage bile flow, avoid emergency surgery -FATTY LIVER= melt fat deposits, improve metabolism, strengthen liver function -PCOS= clear cystic tendencies, balance hormones, restore regular ovulation -OVERALL= detox channels, rekindle digestion, regulate metabolism, balance vata-pitta-kapha

INTERNAL TREATMENT

1) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at night =mild bowel cleansing, removes ama

2) BHUMYAMALAKI CAPSULES= 1 cap twice daily after meals =liver specific herbs, reduces fatty deposits

3) PUNARNAVA + GOKSHURA DECOCTION= 50 ml twice daily after meals =supports kidney and fluid balance

4) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =breaks cysts/tumors, useful in PCOS

5) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily with warm water =classic for liver + gallbladder disorders, regulates pitta

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) OIL MASSAGE= with medicated oils like dhanwantaram taila = improves circulation, reduces heaviness

2) BASTI (medicated enema) in later stage= balances vata, helps in pcos and digestion

3) LEPA (Herbal paste)- rasnadi churna + castor oil warm paste applied over abdomen to reduce pain/inflammation

LIFESTYLE CHANGES -Routine= early to bed, early to rise. keep digestion regular -Hydration= warm water throughout day. Avoid ice-cold drinks -Exercise= 30-40 mins brisk walk or light yoga daily

DIET -green leafy veggies- spinach, methi, coriander -gourds- lauki, tori, karela -barley, millet, red rice -light pulses - mung dal, massor -warm spices- jeera, ajwain, turmeric

AVOID -oily, fried, cheese, panner -excess jaggery, sugar, sweets -red meat, egg yolk -cold drinks, packaged foods, bakery items

ASANAS -Bhujangasna= stimulates liver and ovaries -Dhanurasana= gallbladder and digestion -Setubandhasana= hormonal balance -Trikonasana= reduces abdominal congestion

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances hormones -Kapalbhati= improves liver and metabolism -Bhramari= calms stress, balances vata

HOME REMEDIES -warm water with lemon + 1/2 tsp turmeric every morning -1 tsp aloe vera juice + 1 tsp amla juice daily for liver support -fenugreek seeds soaked overnight- eat in morning for pcos -coriander seed water soaked overnight, drink next day for gallbladder and liver

FINALLY -Virechana may help, but it’s not the first step- you need proper deepan-pachan (digestive correction) and snehana (oil prep) before. -With gallstones, aggressive purgation without supervision can trigger severe pain- so supervised care is non- negotiable -GOOD NEWS= fatty liver grade 1 and PCOS can be reversed with lifestyle and medications. Stones can be managed conservatively if small and not obstructing -Ayurveda’s goal for you- reset digestion, detoxify liver-gallbladder, dissolve ama, balance hormnoes, prevent further complications

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

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.

First of all you need to consult with panchakarma specialist. First you need to perform vaman therapy as it will decrease your kapha dushti so the virechana will have more effect. Dr Akshay negi MD PANCHAKARMA

Considering the multiple concerns you’ve mentioned, it’s important to understand that Ayurveda believes in a holistic approach, targeting the root causes rather than just symptoms. Virechana, a form of Panchakarma, primarily focuses on detoxifying the liver and improving the overall function of the digestive system, which can be helpful in cases like yours. However, it’s crucial to undergo a detailed assessment by an Ayurvedic practitioner to determine if Virechana is right for you, considering your specific body constitution and imbalances.

For gallbladder stones, Ayurveda suggests managing Pitta accumulation and improving bile flow. Incorporating warm, easy-to-digest foods, such as cooked vegetables, whole grains, and avoiding oily and spicy foods could benefit. Regular intake of turmeric, which has anti-inflammatory properties, might also be helpful, yet consulting a healthcare provider before making dietary changes is advisable.

In the case of fatty liver, focus on enhancing liver function through a Kapha-pacifying diet. Consume light, warm meals with ingredients like ginger, and engage in regular physical activity to help metabolize fats properly. PCOS requires balancing hormones and supporting reproductive health, hence incorporating herbs like Ashoka or Shatavari under professional guidance could be beneficial.

For pain in left abdomen, an accurate diagnosis is essential. Meanwhile, you may try gentle yoga practices such as twisting postures, which can improve digestion and reduce discomfort — again, being cautious considering any underlying conditions.

A personalized kidney detox might involve herbal supplements like Gokshura or Punarnava, which support urinary health. Before starting any detox, ensure it aligns well with your constitution and current health status.

Clearly, a professional Ayurvedic assessment is vital to determine the suitability of Virechana in your case, based on prakriti (constitution) and vikriti (imbalance). Safety and efficacy are our priorities, therefore medical supervision is recommended.

To determine if Virechana is suitable, you should consider a few key elements related to your specific health conditions. Virechana, a purification method targeting the Pitta dosha, can benefit various issues if administered correctly, but it must be tailored to individual needs.

With gallbladder stones, liver, kidney concerns, and PCOS, there’s a complex interplay of doshas—likely an imbalance of Pitta and Kapha. Without detailed evaluation, Virechana might provide relief but could also aggravate if not suitable for your current Prakriti and Vikruti (current imbalance). You should first visit an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner who can accurately diagnose your situation before considering Virechana; it’s not advisable to self-medicate in such cases.

Virechana involves preparatory steps like snehana (internal and external oleation) and swedana (sudation therapy), followed by the therapeutic purgation itself. The diet leading up to the procedure needs to be light and easy to digest. It’s essential to ensure that your body is adequately prepared for these stages, and the process is supervised.

For supporting detoxification without a full Virechana procedure, incorporating dietary and lifestyle changes can be beneficial. Focus on consuming a diet rich in fiber, lean proteins, and avoid heavy, spicy, or oily foods which aggravate Pitta and Kapha. Regular exercise and consistent routine in sleep and meal times support overall detox.

If symptoms are severe, or you experience acute abdominal pain, it’s crucial to seek immediate medical attention to avoid complications, as some aspects may require urgent care beyond Ayurveda. Always integrate Ayurvedic approaches with primary healthcare advice to ensure comprehensive safety and wellbeing.

I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.

Dr. 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.

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 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. 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. 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. Manjula
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. Anupriya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

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. 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.
