Diet & Lifestyle Tips - Eat warm, oily, nourishing meals: khichdi, ghee, dates, soaked almonds, rice, moong dal. - Avoid raw, cold, dry foods: they aggravate Vata and weaken digestion. - Chew slowly, but ensure meals are calorie-dense: add ghee, nut butters, or milk-based soups. - Sleep hygiene: early bedtime, warm bath, Brahmi or Shankhpushpi at night. - Gentle movement: restorative yoga, walking, or stretching to improve circulation. - Yoga Nidra or Bhramari Pranayama: to calm nervous system and reduce upper body tension.

HELLO ADITI,

Your body is showing signs of depleted vitality (Ojas kshaya) and imbalance of vata and pitta doshas -vata dosha controls movement, nerve impulses, and energy circulation = when imbalanced, it causes tiredness, body pain, weakness, disturbed sleep, anxiety, and irregular appetite

-Pitta dosha governs digestion, metabolism, and emotional heat = when aggravated, it leads to stress, irritability, burning sensations, poordigestion, and muscle wasting

When both go out of balance, your body’s tissues do not receive proper nourishment. Even if you eat well, your system fails to transfer food into strength, resulting in fatigue, weight loss, and weakness

In Ayurveda, this condition is broadly termed as -depletion of life essence (Ojas) due to disturbed doshas

TREATMENT GOALS -rejuvinate and rebuild Ojas (vital energy) -balance vata and pitta doshas -improve digestion and nutrient absorption -reduce pain, stress and mental strain -restore healthy sleep and calmness -strengthen muscles and immunity naturally

INTERNAL TREATMENT

1) ASHWAGANHA LEHYAM= 1 tsp twice daily with warm milk after meals for 3 months =builds stamina, reduces fatigue, nourishes nerves and muscles

2) CHYAWANPRASHA= 1 tsp daily morning on empty stomach with milk for 6 months =classical Rasayana for immunity , vitality and rejuvenation

3) DASHMOOLA ARISHTA= 15ml twice daily with equal water after meals for 2 months =reduces body ache, balances vata, improves tissue nourishment

4) MANASMITRA VATAKAM= 1 tab twice daily after meals =improves mood, reduces anxiety, enhances concentration

5) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime =detoxifies gut, regulates digestion and improves absorption

Oil massage with Ksheerbala taila daily before bath =improves circulation, reduces fatigue and stiffness, calm the nervous system, and strengthen tissues

LIFESTYLE CHANGES

DO’S -sleep early before 10 pm ; maintain 7-8 hrs sound sleep -keep a fixed routine- eat, sleep, and work on time -avoid excessive thinking, multitasking, and mental strain -spend some time daily in nature or morning sunlight -keep your body warm ; avoid exposure to cold winds

DON’TS -Avoid fasting, skipping meals, or eating too little -avoid junk ,cold, or frozen food -limit stimulants- tea, coffee, smoking, alcohol -avoid late night screen use and overexertion

YOGA ASANAS -balasana= relaxes spine -viparita karani= rejuvenates -setu bandhasana= strengthens back -shavasana= relaxation -bhujangasana= relieves back pain

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances vata-pitta, calms mind -bhramari= reduces anxiety and stress -deep belly breathing= improves oxygenation and energy

DIET -prefer warm, freshly cooked, oily ghee based foods -eat slowly and mindfully chew well -avoid cold, dry, raw, spicy, or sour foods -include sweet, unctous and nourishing tastes to strengthen Ojas

RECOMMENDED FOODS -ghee, milk, butter, soaked almonds, dates, figs, raisins -mmong dal khichdi with ghee -rice, wheat , oats, cooked vegetables - bottle gourd, pumpkin, carrot, beetroot -herbal teas= tulsi, ashwagandha, brahmi or liquorice tea

SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES -warm milk with ashwagandha powder at bedtome -turmeric milk for anti inflammatory support -almond and date smoothie in morning- energy tonic -ginger-cumin-ajwain tea after meals to aid digestion -sesame oil massage for fatigue relief

INVESTIGATIONS ADVISED -CBC, Serum ferritin -Thyroid dysfunction -Vitamin deficiency - D3, B12 -Fasting blood sugar, HbA1c -ESR, CRP -LFT, RFT

Your condition is not a disease but an energy imbalance due to lifestyle, digestion weakness and mental strain. Ayurveda heals it by nourishing, calming, and rebuilding your inner vitality

With consistent rasayana therapy, warm food, proper sleep, positive routine, and gentle yoga- full recovery and renewed vitality are possible within a few months

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

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.

I am currently serving as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital, Nalgonda, where I specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of various ano-rectal disorders. My clinical focus lies in treating conditions such as piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), rectal polyps, and pilonidal sinus using time-tested Ayurvedic approaches like Ksharasutra, Agnikarma, and other para-surgical procedures outlined in classical texts. With a deep commitment to patient care, I emphasize a holistic treatment protocol that combines precise surgical techniques with Ayurvedic formulations, dietary guidance, and lifestyle modifications to reduce recurrence and promote natural healing. I strongly believe in integrating traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with patient-centric care, which allows for better outcomes and long-lasting relief. Working at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital has provided me with the opportunity to handle a wide range of surgical and post-operative cases. My approach is rooted in classical Shalya Tantra, enhanced by modern diagnostic insights. I stay updated with advancements in Ayurvedic surgery while adhering to evidence-based practices to ensure safety and efficacy. Beyond clinical practice, I am also committed to raising awareness about Ayurvedic proctology and promoting non-invasive treatments for conditions often mismanaged or overtreated by modern surgical approaches. I strive to make Ayurvedic surgical care accessible, effective, and aligned with the needs of today’s patients, while preserving the essence of our traditional healing system. Through continuous learning and compassionate practice, I aim to offer every patient a respectful, informed, and outcome-driven experience rooted in Ayurveda.

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. 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.

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.

The core principle would be to pacify Vata, reduce Ama, and build Ojas.

1. Diet (Ahar) Focus on foods that are warm, heavy, moist, and grounding.

Favor: Cooked grains (rice, oats), root vegetables, well-cooked, easy-to-digest soups and stews, and dairy (like warm milk with a pinch of nutmeg before bed).

Healthy Fats: Use Ghee (clarified butter) and sesame oil liberally in cooking and on food. Healthy fats are crucial for nourishing Vata and rebuilding tissues/Ojas.

Avoid: Cold, dry, raw, or crunchy foods like salads, crackers, cold drinks, icecream, and excessive beans, which aggravate Vata.

Spice: Use warming, digestive spices like ginger, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and hing (asafoetida).

2. Lifestyle (Dinacharya) Routine: Establish a strict daily routine. Vata thrives on routine and is aggravated by irregularity. Wake up, eat, and sleep at approximately the same time every day.

Oil Massage (Abhyanga): Daily self-massage with warm Sesame Oil (or Mahanarayana Taila for pain) before bathing. This is one of the most effective ways to calm the Vata-governed nervous system, reduce dryness, and alleviate muscle/joint pain.

Restorative Sleep: Go to bed early (ideally before 10 PM) and ensure your sleep environment is quiet and warm. The unrefreshing sleep is a priority to address

Gentle Exercise: Avoid intense, exhausting workouts. Focus on gentle, grounding activities like Yoga (e.g., Cat-Cow, Child’s Pose, Legs Up the Wall), slow walking, or Tai Chi.

Key Focus The immediate priorities would be to:

Reduce stress through routine, meditation/pranayama (e.g., Nadi Shodhana), and a consistent warm oil massage.

Nourish the body with warm, moist foods and healthy fats to counteract the drying, light nature of Vata and support weight gain.

Ensure restful sleep to rebuild Ojas and soothe the nervous system.

1) Ashwagnadha churna- 1 tsf after food 2 times

2) brahmi vati-1 tab - 2 times after food

3) triphala -1 tsf at bed time with warm water

The symptoms you’re experiencing, including tiredness, body pain, and stress, may indicate an imbalance in your doshas, particularly Vata. Vata controls movement and flow in the body, and when imbalanced, it can lead to fatigue, pain, and mental stress. Let’s address these concerns by incorporating some Ayurveda principles into your daily routine.

Firstly, examine your diet. Focus on warm, nourishing foods that pacify Vata. Cooked grains like rice and oats, as well as well-cooked vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, and spinach, are beneficial. Use warming spices like ginger, cumin, and turmeric to aid digestion and support your agni, or digestive fire. Avoid raw and cold foods, as they can aggravate Vata.

Hydration is important; sip warm water or herbal teas throughout the day to maintain balance. Tisanes made from licorice or chamomile can be soothing for stress. Prepare 1 teaspoon per cup of boiling water, let it steep for 5-10 minutes, and consume it in the evening.

A regular sleep schedule is vital. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same times daily. Gentle yoga or stretching before bed, focusing on asanas like child’s pose or supine spinal twist, may alleviate body pain and promote relaxation. Practice deep breathing exercises, particularly alternate nostril breathing (Nadi Shodhana), to ease stress.

Massage with warm sesame oil can be relaxing, both mentally and physically. Apply warm oil gently to your body, paying attention to sore areas, and leave it for at least 30 minutes before bathing.

Weight concerns might be linked to poor nutrient absorption. Ensure you’re chewing food thoroughly, but also look into digestive enhancers like hing (asafoetida) or a pinch of black salt to aid metabolism. If symptoms persist, or you lose weight rapidly, consider consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized guidance and possible herbal interventions.

Feeling tired and having low energy despite adequate sleep and food might indicate an imbalance in your doshas, specifically a vitiation of Vata and Pitta. The back, shoulder, and lower body pains, coupled with feelings of stress and heaviness, might suggest aggravated Vata leading to blocked energy channels or Nadis. Often, Vata imbalance results from irregular eating or sleeping patterns, excessive stress, or inadequate dietary grounding.

To address these symptoms, focus on balancing Vata and stabilizing agni, your digestive fire. First off, try adopting a routine that aligns with natural cycles — wake up by sunrise and sleep by 10 PM every night. This consistency helps regulate biological rhythms. Prioritize warm, easily digestible meals rich in healthy fats like ghee, which can soothe the nervous system.

Incorporate daily self-massage with warm sesame oil, known as Abhyanga, to help relieve muscle tension and reduce Vata’s dryness. Spend time with gentle stretching or yoga to release physical tension and improve circulation, especially in the back and shoulders. Pranayama, specifically Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), can assist in balancing the nervous system.

Since you’ve mentioned that weight tends to drop when you’re focused on proper meal practices, it might be helpful to assess if agni is too variable. Include spices like ginger, cumin, and turmeric in your meals to stabilize absorption and assimilation. If symptoms persist or worsen, and if weight continues to decline beyond comfort, it would be wise to consult directly with an Ayurvedic practitioner to tailor more personalized remedies, especially if there’s risk of nutritional deficiencies or significant Vata-related ailments. Always ensure you’re balancing self-care with appropriate medical evaluations.

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.

As a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with over 3 years of clinical experience, I focus on treating chronic and complex health conditions through a classical yet patient-centered approach. My core areas of practice include the Ayurvedic management of cancer support care, infertility, digestive disorders, liver cirrhosis, and chronic pain. I emphasize treating the root cause of disease rather than just the symptoms, ensuring each treatment is tailored to the patient's constitution (Prakriti), lifestyle, and overall health goals. I rely on the deep principles of Ayurveda, including herbal formulations, Panchakarma therapies, Rasayana chikitsa (rejuvenation), dietary recommendations, and mind-body alignment to promote healing that is both natural and sustainable. My goal is not just to alleviate symptoms but to enhance overall quality of life, especially in chronic conditions where long-term management and patient confidence are essential. My passion for clinical research in Ayurveda drives me to explore new and innovative ways to improve outcomes for patients with chronic diseases. I continuously study classical texts and modern clinical findings to refine my treatment protocols. This research-oriented mindset enables me to bridge traditional knowledge with current health challenges, aiming to offer evidence-based holistic care that remains true to Ayurvedic wisdom. I firmly believe that every patient’s journey is unique. I work closely with each individual, offering compassionate guidance and a structured healing process that integrates physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Whether someone is navigating long-term health challenges or seeking preventive care through Ayurveda, I strive to empower them with knowledge, natural therapies, and continuous support throughout their healing journey.

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 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.

Dr. Sumit Tasgaonkar
I am Dr. Sumit S. Tasgaonkar — a BAMS doc who also went on to complete MS in Ayurveda surgery, along with CGO and PGDEMS. Kinda feels like I’m always learning. And maybe that’s what keeps me grounded — balancing classical Ayurvedic wisdom with real-time medical emergencies or even modern diagnostic tools. I don’t see these systems as opposites... for me, they compliment each other when you look closely enough. My work mostly revolves around chronic diseases, metabolic issues, lifestyle mess (and there’s plenty of it these days), and women’s health conditions — PCOS, hormonal imbalance, gynec stuff that needs long-term attention. I use Panchakarma, herbal meds, diet correction, sometimes just shifting someone’s daily habits does more than we expect. But it’s never one-size-fits-all. I take a lot of time getting to the root cause — dosha imbalance, agni disturbance, whatever is underneath the visible stuff. Patients dealing with arthritis, stress, skin flareups, digestion trouble — I’ve seen all of that and more. And every case teaches something new. I’m super keen on tracking progress too. Like we keep tweaking, adjusting as per prakriti and vikriti, not just protocol-for-all. And honestly, the most satisfying part? when patients tell me they feel like themselves again. I started Tasgaonkar Medical Foundation with a big dream of bringing authentic Ayurveda to more people, esp. rural areas where choices are limited. We still keep prices fair and try not to compromise on classical principles. Accessibility doesn’t mean diluting the science — that’s always been important to me. What I really want is to see more people actually understand their health. Not just pop pills or mask symptoms. I wanna give them the tools — through knowledge, through food, through breath — to live lighter and healthier. And ya, sometimes it’s messy, sometimes you doubt, sometimes you adjust everything mid-plan... but that's Ayurveda too. Listening, observing, and flowing with the body, not against it.

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.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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.

Thanks for breaking it down so clearly! I hadn't realized how long curd-rice could end up being risky. Definitely helpful to know.
