Here are some Ayurvedic additions and adjustments commonly recommended for your kind of mixed imbalance:

1. To Address Vata (Gas & Bloating) and Improve Agni (Digestive Fire):

Trikatu: A combination of three pungent spices (Ginger, Black Pepper, Long Pepper).

Action: It is a potent Deepana (appetizer) and Pachana (digestive) that helps to ignite Agni and burn Ama (toxins), and is particularly effective for Vata and Kapha, helping reduce gas and bloating.

CCF Tea (Cumin, Coriander, Fennel): Make a tea by boiling equal parts of Cumin, Coriander, and Fennel seeds in water.

Action: Cumin and Fennel are excellent carminatives for Vata, while Coriander is cooling and helps pacify the Pitta aggravation (acidity/heat). This tea is excellent for stabilizing Agni without excessively increasing Pitta.

2. To Address Pitta (Acidity & Oily/Acidic Food Intolerance): You are already taking Avipattikar Churna and Shatavari, which are good for Pitta

3. Adjustments for Hypothyroidism and Overall Balance (Vata-Kapha):

1) Kanchanar Guggulu:1 tab 2 times after food This is a key formulation often used in Kapha-imbalance disorders, particularly for glandular swelling or metabolism issues related to Kapha, like in hypothyroidism.

Action: Helps to scrape Ama and correct metabolic pathways.

2) Ashwagandha churna-1 tsf after food 2 times

While often known as a rejuvenator, it can help manage stress and support thyroid function, which is sometimes indicated in subclinical hypothyroidism. It is warming but also Vata-Kapha balancing.

4. Dietary & Lifestyle Recommendations (Crucial for Vata-Pitta-Kapha Mix): Diet:

Avoid: Immediately eliminate all cold, raw, oily, deep-fried, sour, and fermented foods. This is vital for calming both Vata and Pitta.

Prioritize: Warm, well-cooked, easily digestible, and moderately spiced food. Ghee (clarified butter) in moderation can be very beneficial, as it is good for Vata and Pitta and helps restore Agni.

Small, Frequent Meals: To avoid taxing the weak Agni.

Warm Water: Sip warm water throughout the day.

Period Gas: Focus on warm, light Vata-pacifying food and rest during this time. Asafoetida (Hing) is traditionally helpful for gas during menses. You can try a pinch of Hing dissolved in a glass of warm water during the period.

Mindful Eating: Eat slowly, chew thoroughly, and ensure you are calm while eating. Avoid drinking large amounts of water immediately before, during, or after meals.

Routine: Maintain a consistent daily routine (Dinacharya) to pacify Vata.

Continue your current medication (for Hypothyroidism) as prescribed by your doctor.

Incorporate the CCF tea into your daily routine.

Hello Seema, I can understand your concern regarding your H. pylori infection. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅AYURVEDIC MEDICATION

You are already taking good medicines. Let’s structure them properly for maximum effect:

✅FOR DIGESTION AND H PYLORI LIKE INFECTION

1 Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp with warm water, 20–30 min before lunch & dinner. Reduces acidity, clears Ama, lightens stomach.

2 Guduchi (Giloy) + Neem tablets – 2 tabs each, morning and evening. Anti-pitta, anti-inflammatory, helps fight infection naturally.

3 Vidangasava – good for Krimi, but should be taken for 6–8 weeks only. Continue if you still feel crawling/gas heaviness after meals.

4 Sutshekhar Ras + Kamdudha Ras – 1 tablet each after meals, with honey or cold milk. Best for burning, belching, ulcer-like symptoms, and chronic acid irritation.

✅FOR STOMACH LINING AND HEALING

1 Yashtimadhu (Mulethi) powder – ½ tsp with lukewarm water, after meals. Heals mucosa, reduces irritation, protects stomach lining.

2 Shatavari Churna – ½ tsp with warm milk, in the evening. Balances Pitta, supports female hormones, reduces period-related bloating.

✅FOR CONSTIOATION AND GUT CLEANISING

Triphala Churna – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime. Detoxes gut, improves digestion gradually, reduces Ama.

✅FOR THYROID AND METABOLISM

1 Kanchnar Guggulu – 2 tabs, twice daily, after meals. Regulates thyroid, helps Kapha balance, reduces sluggish digestion.

✅DIET MODIFICATION (Very Crucial to heal gastric mucosal level )

Foods to Include (light, cooling, pitta-shamak)

✅ Soft rice + moong dal khichdi with ghee (best daily base). ✅ Steamed vegetables – lauki, tori, parval, pumpkin. ✅ pomegranate, sweet apple, ripe banana, papaya in moderation. ✅ jeera, dhaniya, fennel, ajwain (lightly roasted). ✅ Buttermilk with roasted jeera + pinch of rock salt in daytime. ✅ Warm jeera water, or coriander water after meals.

❌Foods to Strictly Avoid

Fried, oily, fast food. Excess sour foods – vinegar, pickles, tamarind, tomatoes in excess. Tea, coffee, soft drinks, alcohol. Excess wheat + dairy at night (causes gas + sluggishness). Raw salads at dinner time.

✅LIFESTYLE MEASURES

Regular timings for food, do not skip meals. Eat slowly, chew well – half stomach food, ¼ water, ¼ empty. Do not lie down immediately after meals, sit in Vajrasana for 10 minutes. Yoga: Pwanmuktasana, Vajrasana,Anulom Vilom, Bhramari. Stress worsens both acidity and thyroid – do pranayama daily. Sleep by 10–10:30 pm, avoid late-night meals.

You have already chosen the right medicines. The missing link is structured routine, thyroid support, and mucosa-healing medicines like Sutshekhar Ras, Yashtimadhu, Guduchi-Neem. If you follow this for 8 weeks, you should see clear improvement in gas, bloating, food tolerance, and energy.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

In cases of prolonged indigestion and bloating, especially when there’s a suspicion of H. pylori, one key element is to focus on balancing your doshas and strengthening your digestive fire, or agni. Given your symptoms and existing regimen, there’s a few Ayurvedic remedies and lifestyle changes you might consider to supplement what you’re already doing.

Firstly, continue with Triphala, Avipattikar churna, and Haridra as they aid digestion and reduce acidity. However, be sure you’re consuming Triphala at the right time and in the correct doses — typically, 1-2 teaspoons at bedtime with warm water can be beneficial.

Yakshitimadhu (licorice root) is excellent for soothing the gastric lining, but it can have an impact on blood pressure; be cautious if you’re taking it long-term. Satavari can be nourishing, especially if Vata is aggravated, which it seems it might be given your symptoms.

Vidangasan is traditionally used to address parasitic infections and digestive issues but may need to be paired with other dietary changes for full effectiveness. It’s crucial to maintain a light and easily digestible diet avoiding dairy, sweets, deep-fried, and overly spicy foods. Incorporate cooked vegetables, moderate spices like cumin and coriander, and include ginger tea throughout the day to further ignite digestion.

For hypothyroidism and menstrual irregularities creating gas, Ashwagandha may be helpful. It’s known for supporting thyroid function and balancing hormones. However, ensure it’s compatible with your current lifestyle and body constitution.

Incorporate routine self-massage with warm sesame oil to help with Vata imbalances, and follow it with a comfortably warm bath. Regular physical activity within your limits can also help alleviate bloating by moving the body’s energies.

Keep monitoring your body’s responses to these interventions and adjust accordingly. If symptoms persist or worsen, consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized diagnosis, as subtle imbalances may require deeper investigation.

HELLO SEEMA,

YOU HAVE DESCRIBED -Indigestion for 3 months -gas, bloating, heaviness -intolerance to oil or acidic food -thyroid imbalance -symptoms worsen around your menstrual cycle

These indicate a disturbed digestive system with accumulation of “Ama” (undigested toxins), and an imbalance in vata and Kapha dosha, slightly affecting pitta too

AYURVEDIC DIAGNOSIS

1) AMLAPITTA (hyperacidity/gastritis type)- due to pitta aggravation from wrong food, stress, irregular eating

2) ADHMANA= due to vata imbalance (bloating, gas)

3) GRAHANI DOSHA (intestinal sluggishnes)- when digestive fire becomes weak, food is not properly digested, causing toxins and acidity

4) HYPOTHYROIDISM= considered a kapha-vata disorder with “medo dhatu” and "agni " disturbance (slow metabolism)

So, the main root cause is weak digestion -> leads to toxin build up-> disturb vata, pitta, kapha balance-> affects metabolism and hormones

TREATMENT GOALS -rekindle digestive fire -remove ama -balance doshas -regulate thyroid and hormonal balance -support menstrual health -lifestyle correction

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

FOR DIGESTIVE FIRE AND ACIDITY CONTROL

-AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp with lukewarm water before meals =balances pitta, reduces acid, helps in gastritis and H.pylori type irritation

- SOOTSEKHAR RAS= 1 tab twice a day after meals =alkalising formulation that reduces acid, burning, and nausea

-KAMDUDHA RAS (mouktik yukta)= 1 tab twice a day after meals =cools the stomach lining and repairs mucosa damaged by acid

FOR DETOXIFICATION AND LIVER SUPPORT

-AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals =improves liver function , balances thyroid metabolism, clears ama

-VIDANGA + TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp each at night with warm water =removes intestinal toxins and worms, enhances regular bowel movements

FOR THYROID AND HORMONAL BALANCE

-KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 1 tab twice daily after meals =balances thyroid and lymphatic congestion; regulates metabolism

-PUNARNAVA MANDUR= 1 tab twice daily after meals =removes water retention, improves digestion and energy levels

FOR MENSTRUAL GAS AND PAIN

-HINGWASATAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with ghee before meals =relieves gas, cramps, and vata pain

-DASHMOOLA KASAHYA= 2 tsp twice daily with warm water before meals around periods days =balances vata, soothes cramps, improves uterine and gut coordination

DURATION OF INTERNAL TREATMENT -minimum 8-12 weeks for digestive reset -continue triphala + yashtimadhu + shatavari for 3 months as maintenance -thyroud balancing kanchanar guggulu can continue for longer

DIET -warm, freshly cooked meals -moong dal khichdi with ghee -jeera-ajwain-saunf water throughout the day -cooked vegetables - bottle gourd, ash gourd, pumpkin, ridge gourd -buttermilk with roasted cumin after lunch -herbal teas= ginger, licorice, fennel

AVOID -oily, fried, spicy, fermented food -sour fruits- orange, pineapple , pickles, vinegar -coffee, cold milk, alcohol, cold drinks -wheat heavy or refined foods -late night eating and skipping meals

HOME REMEDIES

1) MORNING DRINK -warm water + 1/2 tsp honey+ few drops of lemon

2) GAS RELIEF -roast equal parts of ajwain + kala namak , chew after meals

3) FOR ACIDITY -mix 1 tsp coriander powder + 1 tsp sugar in cool water, drink mid day

4) FOR BLOATING -boil jeera, ajwain, saunf 1 tsp in 3 cups water-> reduce to 1 cup-> sip warm

5) SOOTHING DRINK 1 tsp aloe vera juice in morning 15 empty stomach

LIFESTYLE AND ROUTINE -eat at fixed times, no overeating or skipping meals -sit calmly and chew properly -avoid lying down immediately after meals, sit in vajrasana for 5-10 min -maintain bowel regularity- do not suppress urges -sleep earl before 10:30 pm -manage stress with daily pranayam or meditation

YOGA ASANAS -pawanmuktasana -vajrasana -ardha matsyendrasana -apanasana -setu bandhasana

PRANAYAM -anulom vilom= 10 min -bhramari= 5 min -kapalbhati= mild version only

Seema, your case is completely manageable with Ayurveda, but patience and regularity are key Think of this not as “just medicine” but as a reset of your digestion and hormones

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

For your ongoing digestive issues, it’s important to ensure you’re addressing not just the symptoms, but also the root cause related to dosha imbalances—particularly with vata and pitta in your case. You’re already using a range of herbs that’s beneficial for balancing these doshas, but let’s refine your approach.

First, consider focusing on enhancing your agni, or digestive fire, as weak digestion might be contributing to the bloating and gas. You could add Hingvastak Churna before meals to aid digestion. This is a traditional Siddhic formulation particularly useful for vata imbalances affecting the gastrointestinal tract. Take it half to one teaspoon with warm water, ideally before each meal, to help with bloating and digestion.

Triphala is great, make sure you’re using it effectively by taking it with warm water before bedtime. You need to see how your body responds over time, it’s usually ideal for regulatory bowel activity.

Given your hypothyroid condition, it’s advisable to do regular yoga and pranayama practices focusing on the throat region. Add Ujjayi pranayama to help stimulate your thyroid gland which indirectly impacts digestive health.

Avoid cold, raw, and oily foods. Instead, go for easily digestible, warm, and cooked meals. Including ginger tea can be soothing, helping with bloating and also balancing the digestive fire.

Pay attention to stressors which might exacerbate digestive issues and consider integrating practices like daily meditation or relaxing tea blends like chamomile in the evening.

Your period’s cyclical impact on digestion can improve with consistent routine; consider Ashoka powder before your cycle starts, which helps in balancing hormones impacting digestion during menstruation.

If symptoms persist or worsen, or if new ones arise, it’s crucial to consult with a local healthcare provider to ensure that complications haven’t developed that require more immediate or specialized attention.

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.

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 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 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. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

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

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. 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. 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. 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.
