Dr. Manjula
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.

1. External Therapies (Snehana and Swedana) Oil Massage (Abhyanga): Massaging your foot with warm, medicated oil is a key therapy. It helps to calm Vata, reduce nerve pain, and improve blood flow.

Recommended oils: Mahanarayan oil, Bala Ashwagandha oil, or simple warm sesame oil are often used for their Vata-pacifying and nourishing properties.

How to: Gently massage the ball of your foot and the space between your toes. Focus on the painful area without applying excessive pressure that could worsen the nerve irritation. Massaging before bed can be particularly beneficial for rest and nerve healing.

Herbal Poultices (Kizhi) and Pastes (Lepam): Applying warm herbal compresses or a paste made from anti-inflammatory herbs can help reduce swelling and pain.

Kizhi: A poultice made with herbs like turmeric and ginger is warmed and applied to the affected area.

Foot Soaks: Soaking your feet in warm water infused with specific herbs or salts can provide relief.

Ingredients: Use Epsom salt or a decoction of herbs like Dashamoola, Triphala, or Nirgundi. This helps to draw out toxins and reduce inflammation.

Dietary Adjustments: A Vata- and Pitta-pacifying diet is often recommended to support nerve and joint health from within.

Include: Warm, cooked foods, healthy fats like ghee, and nourishing grains. Turmeric and ginger can be added to your meals for their anti-inflammatory benefits.

Avoid: Cold, dry, and raw foods, which can aggravate Vata. Limiting refined sugars and saturated fats is also advised.

3. Lifestyle and Other Recommendations Proper Footwear: This is a crucial non-Ayurvedic but essential step. Wear shoes with a wide toe box and good cushioning to reduce pressure on the neuroma. Avoid high heels or shoes that are tight or narrow in the front.

Activity Modification: Reduce high-impact activities like running or jumping that put repetitive pressure on the ball of your foot. Consider low-impact exercises like swimming or cycling.

Rest: Elevating your foot and giving it adequate rest is vital to allow the nerve to heal.

1) Brihat vata chintamani Rasa-125mg -after food in morning with ghee and honey

2) Jatamansi Churna-1gm Brahmi Churna-500mg Guduchi Churna-1gm Rajata Bhasma-50mg Kharpara Bhasma-100mg Abhraka Bh.-125mg Makaradwaja-125mg Shuddha Shilajatu-250mg- after food 2 times with bilva swarasa ghee and honey

HELLO ANSI,

MORTAN’S NEUROMA -Mortan’s neuroma is not actually a tumor- it is a thickening and irritation of a nerve between the toes (usually between 3rd and 4th) -It feels like a pebble or stone inside the ball of the foot

SYMPTOMS -sharp pain when walking on hard surfaces -Burning, tingling, or numbness in the toes -worse when barefoot or in tight shoes

CAUSES= repeated pressure, tight footwear, nerve compression

AYURVEDIC VIEW -This is mainly a Vata imbalance (pain, nerve irritation, degeneration) with Pitta association (burning, inflammation) . If chronic, kapha stiffness may also join.

TREATMENT GOALS -reduce inflammation and burning -soothe and nourish the irritated nerve -improve local circulation and reduce stiffness -correct underlying imbalances with internal medicines -suppport long term healing through lifestyle, footwear, and diet changes

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) YOGARAJ GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =reduce pain, inflammation, and vata disorders

2) KAISHOR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =especially if burning/pitta symptoms are strong

3) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night =nerve tonic, reduces stress on nervous system

4) SHALLAKI CAPSULE= 400 mg cap twice daily =anti inflammatory, reduces swelling around nerve

5) DASHMOOLA KASHAYA= 20ml with warm water twice daily before meals =balances vata, reduces nerve pain

DURATION= 6-12 weeks with consistent use

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) OIL MASSAGE= with Ksheerbala taila on the affected foot daily = reduces pain, nourishes nerves , improves circulation

2) STEAM -Warm compress after massage =relieves stiffness, helps oils penetrate deeper

3) OIL POOLING ON THE FOOT -warm medicated oil kept in small reservoirs over the ball of foot for 20-30 min

4) PASTE APPLICATION -paste of turmeric + sesame oil on the foot to reduce burning and sweeling

DIET -favour vata-pitta pacifying food -warm, freshly cooked, unctous foods -cow’s ghee, sesame oil, milk, dates, soaked almonds -moong dal, rice, wheat, seasonal vegetables -mild spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric

AVOID -excess cold, dry, stale food -too much spicy, sour, or fried food- increases pitta and vata -alcohol, excess coffee/tea

LIFESTYLE -avoid walking barefoot on hard floors -wear soft, cushioned , wide shoes (not tight) -Avoid prolonged standing or high heels -Keep foot warm in cold weather -Gentle foot stretches- avoid pressure activities like running/jumping

YOGA ASANAS -vajrasana= improves foot flexibility -tadasana= helps posture -viparita karani= improves circulation

PRANAYAM -anulom vilom -shhetali/sheetkari -bhramari

AVOID HIGH IMPACT EXERCISES THAT STRESS THE FEET

HOME REMEDIES -warm foot soaked in warm water with a pinch of salt and turmeric- 10-15 min daily -Turmeric milk = natural anti inflammatory -Castor oil 1 tsp at bedtime= mild laxative, redcues vata, helps nerve healing -Gentle massage of foot with warm sesame oil + a pinch of rock salt before bed

-Morton’s neuroma is not dangerous, but it can become very painful if ignored -Ayurveda aims at soothing the nerve, reducing inflamamation, and nourishing tissues rather than just masking symptoms -With Internal medicines, external therapies, and lifestyle corrections most patients get significant relief -Footwear modification and avoiding aggravating activities re as important as medicines

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

In managing Morton’s neuroma, understanding how to balance doshas and reduce inflammation is crucial. Primarily, Vata dosha aggravation often contributes to nerve-related conditions like this. To address this in an Ayurvedic manner, begin with internal and external treatments that calm Vata and Pitta doshas.

To start, use an anti-inflammatory diet that pacifies Vata and Pitta. Include warm, nourishing foods that are easy to digest. Foods like cooked vegetables, whole grains, and warming spices such as ginger, and turmeric are beneficial. Avoid foods that are excessively cold, dry, or processed, as they can aggravate Vata.

For external treatment, consider self-massage (abhyanga) with warm sesame oil, especially focusing on the foot and calf. This oil is traditionally used to reduce Vata and calm inflammation. Massage the affected area gently each night, allowing the oil to penetrate and soothe the tissues. After massaging, apply a warm compress to the area to further enhance circulation and alleviate stiffness.

Focus on wearing footwear that offers adequate cushioning and support to prevent further irritation. When at home, use soft slippers or cushioned sandals to protect your foot on hard surfaces.

Moreover, recommended herbal formulations for nerve pain and inflammation include Ashwagandha and Guggulu. Ashwagandha can calm Vata and strengthen nerves, while Guggulu is renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties. Take these under an Ayurvedic practitioner’s supervision since precise dosage is necessary.

Manage stress through practices like yoga and meditation, which stabilize Vata. Practice gentle foot exercises, like toe stretches, to improve flexibility and circulation—but avoid movements that trigger pain.

If the pain persists or worsens, it would be prudent to consult a healthcare provider for further investigation and aligned treatments. Ayurvedic practices can complement conventional therapies but aren’t a replacement in serious or advancing conditions.

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. Haresh Vavadiya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor currently practicing at Ayushakti Ayurveda—which honestly feels more like a learning ecosystem than just a clinic. Being here has changed the way I look at chronic conditions. You don’t just treat the label—you go after the cause, layer by layer, and that takes patience, structure, and real connection with the person sitting in front of you. Ayushakti has been around 33+ years, with global reach and seriously refined clinical systems. That means I get to work with protocols that are both deeply rooted in traditional Ayurveda and also super practical for today’s world. Whether I’m managing arthritis, asthma, skin issues like eczema or psoriasis, hormone trouble, gut problems, or stress overload—my first step is always a deep analysis. Prakriti, doshas, ahar-vihar, past treatments—everything gets mapped out. Once I’ve got that picture clear, I create a plan using herbal medicines, detox programs (especially Panchakarma), Marma therapy if needed, and definitely food and routine corrections. But nothing’s random. Each piece is chosen for *that* person. And I don’t just prescribe—I explain. Because when someone knows *why* they’re doing a certain thing, they stick with it longer, and the results hold. One thing I’ve learned while working here is how powerful Ayurved can be when it's structured right. At Ayushakti, that structure exists. It helps me treat confidently and track results properly. Whether I’m working with a first-time visitor or a patient who’s been dealing with the same thing for 10 years, my goal stays the same—help their system return to a natural, sustainable state of balance. What I really enjoy is seeing how people’s mindset changes once they start to feel better. When they stop depending on just temporary relief and start building their health from within—that’s when the real shift happens. And being part of that shift? That’s why I do this.

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

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Anusha Sadhunavar
I am currently working as Chief Ayurvedic Consultant at Madhavbaug Advanced Ayurvedic Hospital & Clinic, and honestly, everyday feels like a new learning. With 4+ yrs of clinical practice in Ayurveda, I mostly deal with metabolic messes like diabetes, obesity, blood pressure issues — and often they come mixed up with digestion problems, chronic fatigue, or even joint stiffness n' random pains that just don't go away. Some days are heavy, especially when someone walks in hopeless, tried everything else and still struggling. I mostly begin with detailed history and yeah—Nadi Pariksha plays a big role in how I understand where exactly the imbalance is. I don’t rush through that. Every case for me starts at the root, like okay—what’s not working inside and why. Based on that I use herbs, diet (and it’s not always just boiled stuff, btw), structured lifestyle corrections, and therapies like Panchakarma when needed. Rejuvenation through Rasayana is something I hold close, esp. in recovery & prevention stages. One thing I feel matters a lot is the patient actually understanding what's happening in thier own body. That’s why I try to teach about daily routines (dinacharya), ritucharya...sometimes even small things like when to eat or sleep can turn things around. We use yoga, stress-relief practices too when there's anxiety or mind-related stuff tangled in the picture (which, trust me, is more often than people realise.) I work alongside a team that believes in integrative healing—not this vs that, but what truly helps the person. My job isn’t just managing symptoms but helping the body relearn balance. It’s challenging, not always smooth, but it’s worth every bit when someone tells you they finally feel like themself again. That’s why I’m here.

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

Dr. 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. Atul Painuli
I am Vaidya Atul Painuli, currently working as an Ayurvedic Consultant at Patanjali Chikitsalaya, Delhi... been here a while now. My focus from the start—over 10+ yrs in this field—has been to stay true to what Ayurveda *actually* is, not just surface-level remedies or buzzwords. I’ve treated a wide mix of patients, from people battling chronic illnesses to those just looking to fix their lifestyle before it leads to disease (which is v underrated tbh). During these years, I kinda shaped my practice around the idea that one solution never fits all. Whether it’s diabetes, gut disorders, stress-related problems or hormone issues—everything goes back to the root, the *nidana*. I usually go with classic Ayurvedic meds, but I mix it up with Panchakarma, diet tweaks and daily routine correction, depending on the case. Most of the time, ppl don’t even realize how much their habits are feeding into the problem. It’s not just about herbs or massages... though those are important too. At Patanjali Chikitsalaya, I see patients from literally all walks of life—office-goers, elderly, even young kids sometimes. Everyone’s got something diff going on, which keeps me grounded. What I try to do is not just treat the symptoms but help ppl *see* what’s happening in their bodies and minds. Like Ayurveda says—if your digestion, sleep and emotions are off... then eventually health’s gonna wobble. I don’t promise quick results but I do stay with my patients through the process, adjusting things based on how they respond. That part makes a big difference I think. For me, Ayurveda isn’t a “last resort” kinda thing—it’s a system that can prevent 80% of the lifestyle diseases ppl suffer from today, if done right. My goal? Just to keep doing this in a way that feels real, grounded, and actually helps ppl—not overwhelm them with too much jargon or fear. Just practical, clean, honest healing.

Dr. Nayan Wale
I am working in medical field for total 7 years, out of which around 4 years was in hospital setup and 3 years in clinic practice. Hospital work gave me strong base, long duty hours, different type of cases, emergencies sometimes, and learning under pressure. Clinic work is different, slower but deeper, where I sit with patients, listen more, explain things again n again, and follow them over time. In hospital I handled day to day OPD cases, routine management, and also assisted seniors when things got complicated. That phase shaped my clinical thinking a lot, even now I sometimes catch myself thinking like hospital mode when a case looks serious. Clinic practice on the other hand taught me patience. Patients come with chronic issues, expectations, doubts, sometimes fear, and I had to adjust my approach accordingly. I focus on practical treatment planning, not just diagnosis on paper. Some days I feel I should have more time with each patient, but I try to balance it. My experience across hospital and clinic helps me understand both acute care and long term disease management. I still keep learning everyday, reading, observing patterns, correcting myself when needed, because medicine never stays same for long, and neither should the doctor.

Dr. Jatin Kumar Sharma
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.
