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.

HELLO RUCHIKA,

From what you described -you get breathlessness very quickly while walking or doing small work -you depend on inhaler for relief -dust, perfumes, and strong smells trigger sneezing and difficulty in breathing -fatigue and weakness come easily

In modern medicine, this is usually called Allergic asthma/chronic airway hypersensitivity

In Ayurveda, this matches Tamaka Shwaas, a condition caused by kapha (phlegm/mucus) blocking the airways and vata becoming disturbed, leading to -breathlessness -wheezing -sneezing -chest tightness -weakness

TREATMENT GOALS -reduce frequency and severity of attacks -decrease dependence on inhaler - gradually not suddenly -strengthen lung capacity and immunity -balance kapha and vata dosha -prevent triggers- dust, cold, perfume, heavy food -improve digestion and metabolism -because weak digestion increases mucus formation

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) SHITOPALADI CHURNA + TALISADI CHURNA= 2gm each with honey twice daily =clears mucus, reduces cough and sneezing, improves breathing, reduces breathlessness

2) YASHTIMADHU POWDER= 1/2 tsp with warm water twice daily =soothes airway lining, reduces irritation

3) KANTAKAR AVALEHA= 2 tsp daily in mornnig =improves lung strength, immunity booster

4) HARIDRA (turmeric) with BLACK PEPPER in warm milk at night =anti allergic, reduces airway inflammation

DURATION= at least 2-3 mnoths for noticeable improvement

EXTERNALLY

1) STEAM INHALATION= with tulsi leaves/ajwain seeds daily =opens blocked airways

2) NASYA= 2 drops of Anu taila in each nostril daily morning =lubricates airways, reduces allergy response

3) CHEST MASSAGE= with warm mustard oil before bath 2-3 times/week =relieves chest tightness

HOME REMEDIES -Tulsi + giner + honey decoction once daily -black pepper powder with honey-1/2 tsp once daily -warm water sip sip throughout the day -garlic boiled in milk at night occasionally for lung strength -clove chewing helps in throat irritation

DIET -warm water, herbal teas -moong dal, lauki, pumpkin, ridge gourd -ginger, garlic, turmeric -honey raw but never heated

AVOID -cold water, ice creams, soft drinks -curd at night, cheese, panner -deep fried, heavy oily food -bakeryitems, fast food -smoking, alcohol

LIFESTYLE AND YOGA -Avoid exposure to dust, smoke, perfume, cold wind -keep home clean, dust free

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances vata -bhramari= calms mind, opens chest -kapalbhati= clears mucus

YOGA ASANAS -bhujangasana -matsyasana -ardha matsyendrasana -setu bandhasana

INVESTIGATIONS NEEDED -Spirometry/pulmonary function test- to assess lung capacity -allergy test -chest X-ray

-Your problem is chronic but manageable -do not stop inhaler suddenly- ayurveda works as supportive therapy to reduce attacks in Lon run -with a kapha balancing diet, pranayam, herbs, and detox therapies you can expect –reduced frequency of attacks –less allergy response –better stamina and energy –gradual reduction in inhaler use

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

I am a dedicated Ayurveda practitioner with a deep-rooted passion for restoring health through traditional Ayurvedic principles. My clinical approach revolves around understanding the unique constitution (Prakruti) and current imbalance (Vikruti) of each individual. I conduct comprehensive consultations that include Prakruti-Vikruti Pareeksha, tongue examination, and other Ayurvedic diagnostic tools to identify the underlying causes of disease, rather than just addressing symptoms. My primary focus is on balancing the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—through individualized treatment plans that include herbal medicines, therapeutic diets, and lifestyle modifications. 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. My practice is rooted in authenticity, guided by classical Ayurvedic texts and a strong commitment to ethical, patient-centered care. I take pride in helping people achieve long-term health outcomes by integrating ancient knowledge with a modern, practical approach. Through continuous learning and close attention to every detail in diagnosis and treatment, I strive to deliver meaningful, natural, and effective results for all my patients.

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.

नमस्ते रुचिका,

आपने जो बताया, उसके अनुसार -चलते या छोटा-मोटा काम करते समय आपको बहुत जल्दी साँस फूलने लगती है -आप राहत के लिए इनहेलर पर निर्भर रहते हैं -धूल, परफ्यूम और तेज़ गंध से छींक और साँस लेने में तकलीफ़ होती है -थकान और कमज़ोरी आसानी से आ जाती है

आधुनिक चिकित्सा में, इसे आमतौर पर एलर्जिक अस्थमा/क्रोनिक एयरवे हाइपरसेंसिटिविटी कहा जाता है

आयुर्वेद में, यह ताम्र श्वास से मिलता-जुलता है, जो कफ (कफ/बलगम) के कारण वायुमार्ग अवरुद्ध होने और वात के बिगड़ने के कारण होता है, जिसके परिणामस्वरूप -साँस फूलना -घरघराहट -छींक आना -सीने में जकड़न -कमज़ोरी

उपचार के लक्ष्य -दौरों की आवृत्ति और गंभीरता को कम करना -इनहेलर पर निर्भरता कम करना - अचानक नहीं, धीरे-धीरे -फेफड़ों की क्षमता और प्रतिरक्षा को मज़बूत करना -कफ और वात दोष को संतुलित करना -धूल, सर्दी, परफ्यूम, भारी भोजन जैसे ट्रिगर्स से बचाव -पाचन और चयापचय में सुधार -क्योंकि कमज़ोर पाचन बलगम के निर्माण को बढ़ाता है

आंतरिक औषधियाँ

1) शीतोपलादि चूर्ण + तालीसादि चूर्ण = 2 ग्राम प्रत्येक शहद के साथ दिन में दो बार =बलगम साफ़ करता है, खांसी और छींक कम करता है, साँस लेने में सुधार करता है, साँस फूलने की समस्या कम करता है

2) यष्टिमधु चूर्ण = आधा चम्मच गर्म पानी के साथ दिन में दो बार =श्वसन नली की परत को आराम देता है, जलन कम करता है

3) कंटकार अवलेह = सुबह 2 चम्मच प्रतिदिन =फेफड़ों की शक्ति बढ़ाता है, रोग प्रतिरोधक क्षमता बढ़ाता है

4) रात में गर्म दूध में काली मिर्च के साथ हरिद्र (हल्दी) =एलर्जीरोधी, श्वास नली की सूजन कम करता है

अवधि = ध्यान देने योग्य सुधार के लिए कम से कम 2-3 महीने

बाहरी रूप से

1) भाप लेना = तुलसी के पत्तों/अजवाइन के बीजों के साथ प्रतिदिन =अवरुद्ध श्वास नली को खोलता है

2) नस्य = प्रतिदिन सुबह प्रत्येक नथुने में अणु तेल की 2 बूँदें =चिकनाई प्रदान करता है वायुमार्गों में जलन कम करता है, एलर्जी की प्रतिक्रिया को कम करता है

3) छाती की मालिश = नहाने से पहले गर्म सरसों के तेल से सप्ताह में 2-3 बार = सीने की जकड़न से राहत

घरेलू उपचार - तुलसी + अदरक + शहद का काढ़ा दिन में एक बार - शहद के साथ काली मिर्च पाउडर - दिन में एक बार आधा चम्मच - दिन भर घूंट-घूंट करके गर्म पानी लें - फेफड़ों की मजबूती के लिए कभी-कभी रात में दूध में उबाला हुआ लहसुन लें - लौंग चबाने से गले की जलन में आराम मिलता है

आहार - गर्म पानी, हर्बल चाय - मूंग दाल, लौकी, कद्दू, तुरई - अदरक, लहसुन, हल्दी - कच्चा शहद, लेकिन कभी गर्म न करें

इनसे बचें - ठंडा पानी, आइसक्रीम, शीतल पेय - रात में दही, पनीर, पनीर - तले हुए, भारी तेल वाले भोजन - बेकरी उत्पाद, फास्ट फूड - धूम्रपान, शराब

जीवनशैली और योग - धूल, धुएं, इत्र, ठंडी हवा के संपर्क में आने से बचें - घर को साफ रखें, धूल मुफ़्त

प्राणायाम -अनुलोम विलोम = वात को संतुलित करता है -भ्रामरी = मन को शांत करता है, वक्ष को खोलता है -कपालभाति = बलगम साफ़ करता है

योग आसन -भुजंगासन -मत्स्यासन -अर्ध मत्स्येन्द्रासन -सेतु बंधासन

आवश्यक जाँचें -स्पाइरोमेट्री/पल्मोनरी फंक्शन टेस्ट - फेफड़ों की क्षमता का आकलन करने के लिए -एलर्जी परीक्षण -छाती का एक्स-रे

-आपकी समस्या पुरानी है लेकिन नियंत्रण में है -इन्हेलर को अचानक बंद न करें - आयुर्वेद लंबे समय में दौरे कम करने के लिए सहायक चिकित्सा के रूप में काम करता है -कफ संतुलन आहार, प्राणायाम, जड़ी-बूटियों और डिटॉक्स थेरेपी से आप उम्मीद कर सकते हैं -दौरों की आवृत्ति में कमी -एलर्जी प्रतिक्रिया में कमी -बेहतर सहनशक्ति और ऊर्जा -इन्हेलर के उपयोग में धीरे-धीरे कमी

अनुसरण करें

उम्मीद है कि यह मददगार होगा

धन्यवाद आप

Aapki breathing ki problem aur fatigue ka reason sambhavit roop se dosha imbalance ho sakta hai, yeh main respiratory system ka imbalance dikhata hai. Aasthma ya kisi bhi respiratory distress ko rule out karna zaroori hai, toh kisi competent healthcare professional se consult karein. Ab kuch ayurvedic sujhaav jo aap ghar pe apna sakte hain.

Pehla, apni diet par focus karein. Khane mein tulsi patta ka churna ya tulsi chai ko shamil karein. Yeh vaata aur kapha vitiation ko balance karne mein madadgar hoti hai. Thoda adrak aur shahad bhi include kar sakte hain, yeh bronchodilator ki tarah kaam kar sakta hai.

Dusra, pranayama exercises daily routine mein shamil karein. Anulom-Vilom aur Bhramari prakriya aapki breathing aur vitals yojana ko improve karne mein help karega. Early morning ke samay 15-20 minute ka samay in exercises mein lagayein. Yeh aapki fatigue ko kam karne ka kaam karega.

Ghratika or steam inhalation with herbal oils jaise ki eucalyptus ya kapoor ka bhi use karein. Yeh nasal passages ko clear karne aur allergen effects ko reduce karne ke liye madad karega. Everyday, soone se pehle, ek simple steamer mein thoda eucalyptus oil daalein aur inhale karein.

Jaldi thakne ke liye, diet mein iron-rich foods jaise spinach, beetroot aur jaggery include karein. Yeh iron deficiency ki wajah se hone wale fatigue ko cover karega. Viruddha aahara, yaalam yathan should be strictly avoid.

Yadi perfume aur dust allergy cause ho rahi, toh mask ka istemal karein jab aap crowd mein hoon. Sookshmata se observe karein, barish ke environment mein sezdaari aur asthma like distinctive symptoms toh nahi badhate.

Yadi condition men koi sudden aur severe worsening dikhta hai, toh immediate medical consultation lena mahatvapurn hai. Ayurveda ke saath allopathy treatment ko bhi consider karein agar severe asthma ya allergy suspect kiya jaye.

Aapke symptomse aisa lagta hai ki aapko respiratory system se judi kuch samasya hai, jise ghar-eloo upaayon aur Ayurvedic tarike se kuch matra tak samhala ja sakta hai. Lekin zaroorat padne par allopathic dawa ka istemal bhi jaroori hai. Aap jyada serious conditions ke liye doctor se sampark karein kyunki yeh immediate care demand karte hain.

Aap sabse pehle din kaum se kam 10-15 minute sukshma pranayama karna shuru karein. Yeh nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) aur kapalbhati pranayama ki madad se aapki breathing efficiency badh sakti hai aur prana vayu balance rahata hai. Pranayama ke dauran, gyaani jagah pe dyaan dein jahan pollution kam ho.

Din bhar me tulsi aur mulethi ki chai pine se aapko allergies se rahat mil sakti hai, kyunki yey ingredients vata aur kapha ki imbalance ko shant karte hain. Ek glass garam dudh me thoda sa haldi mila kar raat ko peene se bhi immune system mazboot hota hai.

Khud ko jaldi thakne se bachne ke liye, apni diet me chitkara khane kam karein aur fiber rich aur light khana apnaayen jaise moong dal, chawal aur seasonal sabziyo ka istemal aapke digestive agni ko balance rakhta hai.

Aekanand ke liye, ghrataabhyanga (body massage) try karein jisse aapko thakan se rahat milegi aur stress bhi kam hoga. Aap isme tila tail yaa sesame tail ka upayog kar sakte hain.

Agar condition control nahi ho rahi aur aapko asthma ya respiratory allergy me fark nahi pad raha, to doctor se milna jaruri hai. Yeh suggestions aapko symptomatic relief denge lekin underlying condition ko jyada clinical intervention ki zaroorat ho sakti hai.

Dhyan rakhein ki serious symptoms par allopathic doctor se consult zaroor karna chahiye.

I’m Dr. Hemanshu, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic Surgery), with a focused interest in para-surgical interventions such as Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma. My academic and clinical journey is rooted in classical Ayurvedic surgical wisdom, complemented by a modern understanding of patient care and evidence-based approaches. With hands-on training and experience in managing chronic pain conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other ano-rectal conditions, I provide treatments that emphasize both relief and long-term wellness. I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

HELLO RUCHIKA,

Ayurvedic Treatment for Breathing Problems 1. Dietary Advice (Pathya) Consume warm, cooked food; do not have cold, heavy, oily, or fried food. Use light grains such as rice, oats, and barley. Prefer ghee, honey (raw, in small quantities), and warm herb teas (such as tulsi, ginger, or black pepper tea). Shun smoky, dusty, fried, or highly processed foods. Restrict dairy if it makes mucus more.

2. Herbs & Supplements (Recommended) Tulsi (Holy Basil) – 3-4 leaves per day or tulsi tea. Vasa (Malabar Nut) – assists in chronic cough relief; typically in the form of churna or decoction. Licorice (Yashtimadhu) – relaxes the respiratory system; take ½ tsp powder with warm water or milk. Turmeric (Haldi) – anti-inflammatory; mix with milk or food. Triphala Churna – for immune system and lung well-being overall.

3. Breathing & Exercise (Pranayama & Yoga) Anulom Vilom (Alternate Nostril Breathing) – 5-10 min/day. Bhramari (Bee Breath) – quiets lungs and decreases stress. Deep diaphragmatic breathing – inhale slowly through nose, fill abdomen, exhale slowly. Slow yoga stretches (such as Bhujangasana, Ardha Matsyendrasana) enhance lung capacity. No strenuous physical activity until inhaler use is regulated.

4. Lifestyle & Environment Home, dust-free; avoid overpowering perfumes, smoking, or pollution. Warm steam inhalation with tulsi or ginger, once a day. Regular sleep and hydration. Control stress; anxiety can exacerbate breathlessness.

5. Daily Routine (Dinacharya) Morning wake-up call, do gentle stretching. Drink small sips of warm water during the day. Do frequent, short pranayama sessions rather than long sessions at first.

Important: This Ayurvedic regimen can help your lungs, decongest mucus, and build stamina, but it does not substitute for inhalers or medication ordered by your doctor. Never discontinue your pulmonologist’s treatment and see your doctor before adding new herbs.

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

I am a BAMS graduate and currently running my own clinic, where I see patients on a regular basis and try to give them honest, practical care. My daily work involves understanding different health concerns, listening properly to what the patient is going through, and then planning treatment in a way that actually fits their routine. I believe treatment should not feel confusing or rushed, and sometimes even small changes make a big difference. Running my own clinic has taught me a lot about responsibility and consistency. Some days are busy, some are slow, but every patient brings a different challenge and learning. I focus mainly on Ayurvedic treatment methods, lifestyle correction and long-term health balance, rather than quick fixes. There are times when progress takes longer, but I stay patient and keep working with the person step by step. I try to keep my approach simple, practical and honest. For me, real success is when a patient feels better in daily life, sleeps better, eats better and slowly regains balance. That is what keeps me going and improving every day.

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.

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. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. 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. 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. 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. Mohit Kakkar
I am a BAMS-qualified Ayurvedic physician from Jalandhar, Punjab, and I work with a deep interest in blending classical Ayurvedic wisdom with modern telemedicine care. My practice is largely consultation based, reaching patients across the country through online platforms, which still feels new sometimes but works well. Till now I have served more than 500 patients through teleconsultations, mostly chronic cases where consistency really matters more than quick fixes. I focus on understanding each patient through dosha assessment, mainly balancing Vata, Pitta, Kapha using individualized treatment plans and nutrition guidance. Around 85% symptom relief has been seen in chronic conditions, though outcomes vary and need patience. I rely on personalised diet, daily routine correction, and classical Ayurvedic medicines. Some days are challenging, but seeing people feel lighter, sleep better, or regain control over health keeps me going. My aim stays simple,, long term wellness through practical Ayurveda, not rushed solutions.

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.

Dr. Snehal Tasgaonkar
I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.
