Hello Brighton,

I can understand your concern regarding Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head — in Ayurvedic view — correlates with Asthi-Majjagata Vata but dont worry we are here to help you out😊

Stage 2/3 indicates early to moderate damage, and Ayurveda aims to stop further degeneration, nourish bone tissue, and improve blood flow to the femoral head.

✅AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT-

✅ Internal Ayurvedic Medicines (for Bone Nourishment & Circulation)

1. Lakshadi Guggulu –1-0-1 after food strengthens bone, reduces degeneration, and helps healing of bone tissue.

2. Kaishora Guggulu – 1-0-1 after food reduces inflammation and improves blood circulation to the affected joint.

3. Ashwagandha Churna– 1 tsp churna with warm milk at bedtime excellent for Vata pacification, pain relief, and bone strengthening.

4. Abha Guggulu 1-0-1 after food – promotes regeneration of bone tissue (Asthi dhatu poshana).

✅Panchakarma Therapy – The Cornerstone of AVN Management ( Very important for you )

☑️Panchakarma is essential to arrest disease progression, rejuvenate bones, and restore movement. These therapies directly act on Asthi-Majja Dhatu and Vata dosha-

1. Abhyanga (Therapeutic oil massage): full-body massage with Ksheerabala Taila, or Dhanwantharam Taila improves blood flow and reduces stiffness.

2. Swedana (Steam therapy): Following abhyanga with gentle medicated steam helps reduce pain and enhances circulation in hip joints.

3. Basti (Medicated Enema): Most vital therapy for AVN — Dashmoola ksheera basti - l nourishes Asthi dhatu, relieves pain, and improves mobility. Duration: 8-14 days under Ayurvedic supervision

Benefit Deep tissue nourishment and reversal of early degeneration.

✅As from Previous consulation I came to know that you live in Africa, but plsease once look for any Ayurvedic panchakarma center o

☑️Incase you dont get any panchakarma center 👉you can do mild massage over your lower back and both femoral and lower limb region with ksheerbala taila for 15 mins 👉followed by warm water bath over the area 👉You can try Dashmool sitz bath - PREPARATION- take 30 gm of dashmoola choorna or panchanga, Add 3 litres of water and 3 litres of milk boil and reduce to 3 litres and use this decoction for sitz bath This will locally nourish the femoral head

✅DIETARY AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

Include calcium-rich and nourishing foods: milk, ghee, sesame, almonds, dates, black gram soup, green leafy vegetables.

Avoid dry, spicy, and cold foods that aggravate Vata dosha.

Avoid long walking, running, and sudden jerky movements.

In AVN Stage 2/3, Ayurveda can significantly slow down or even halt progression by -Improving blood flow and bone nutrition -Reducing inflammation and pain -Strengthening Asthi Dhatu through Panchakarma and Rasayana

Among all, Basti therapy (oil-based enema) is considered the most important treatment — it directly nourishes and revitalizes the degenerated bone tissue and improves mobility naturally.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

Thank you Dr Vidhate

Will try that. I appreciate.

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.

Procedures you need to undergo 1. Massage with Ksheerbala Oil followed by Sudation therapy

Basti Treatment 2. Panchatikt Ksheer Basti (In this medication decoction is prepared (400-450ml) and is administered through anorectal route with the help of catheter. 3. Anuvasan Basti with Sahcharadi Oil (70ml)

Medications- 1. Capsule Sahcharadi Tail, 1-0-1 2. Capsule Palsinuron 2-0-2 3. Tab Shallaki 1-0-1 4. Dashmool Kwatha 15ml-0-15ml before food with 15 ml lukewarm water

Thanks for the prescription Doc

Avascular necrosis, particularly of the femoral head, requires careful management. In Ayurveda, this condition is seen as an imbalance in Vata dosha, affecting the asthi dhatu (bone tissue). Ayurvedic management focuses on Vata pacification and bone strengthening.

Firstly, consider making dietary changes to support bone health and balance Vata. Warm, nourishing foods like ghee, sesame oil, and bone broth are beneficial. Avoid cold, dry, and raw foods which may aggravate Vata. Including cooked vegetables such as sweet potatoes and carrots can help.

Herbs that support bone health and Vata balance include Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus), and Guggulu (Commiphora mukul). You can take 500 mg of Ashwagandha with warm milk twice daily, which also aids in reducing inflammation. Guggulu can be taken in the form of Yogaraj Guggulu; consult a practitioner for dosing based on severity.

Panchakarma, particularly Basti (medicated enema), can be considered for Vata balance and pain reduction. Seek a qualified Ayurveda practitioner for this therapeutic cleansing.

External applications such as Ksheerabala oil for local massage can help alleviate pain. Warm the oil slightly before applying it gently over the hip area twice a day.

Regular, mild exercise such as yoga, especially poses focusing on joint and hip mobility, can be beneficial. However, ensure you avoid weight-bearing activities that can increase pain or worsening your condition.

Monitor symptoms closely, and keep in touch with a healthcare provider to ensure that the condition does not worsen. Remember, Ayurveda works best as supportive care, and continuing any conventional treatments is crucial.

Thank you

HELLO BRIGHTON,

WHAT HAPPENS IN AVN -The femoral head gets its nourishment from small blood vessels -when blood flow decreases due to injury, steroids,alcohol or unknown reasons, bone cells start dying -overtime, this dead bone becomes weak-> cracks -> the smooth round surface callpase-> the hip joint becomes irregular and painful

STAGES

STAGE 1= blood supply reduced, pain mild, bone still looks normal on X-RAY STAGE2= bone begin to hardn or show cysts pain increases STAGE 3=bone starts collapsing, hip joint surface become uneven-> pain while walking, limping STAGE 4= complete collapse-> arthritis develops-> constant pain even at rest

So at stage 2-3 the goal is to stop further bone death, strengthen bone, reduce pain and stiffness and improve blood circulation

In Ayurveda, this condition is mainly due to “vata dosha aggravation” affecting the Asthi (bone) and Majja (bone marrow) This leads to -dryness and weakness in bones -poor nourishment -pain, cracking, stiffness, and reduced joint movement

TRETMENT GOALS -reduce inflammation and muscle tightness -stimulate new bone formation improve blood flow to femoral head -remove ama/toxins blocking channels -stop further necrosis

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) KAISHOR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =cleanses blood, reduces inflamamtion, balances pitta vata

2) LAKSHADI GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =strengthens bone matrix, promotes fracture and bone repair

3) MAHARASNADI KASHAYA= 20 ml with warm water twice daily before meals =improves joint circulation, reduces pain and stiffness

4) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime =increases strength, muscle mass, improves regeneration

5) SHALLKAI CAPSULES= 500mg twice daily after meals =reduces joint inflammation, and improves mobitltiy

6) ABHRAM BHASMA= 125mg once with honey =rejuventates bones and marrow tissues

7) BALA ARISHTA= 15ml twice daily after meals with warm water =balnces vata, improves nerve and jonit function

DURATION= Minimum 6 months, ideally continued or 12 months or more depending on response and related MRI to see improvement

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) DAILY OIL MASSAGE= daily massage with Ksheerbala taila =improves local circulation, nourishes joint tissues, reduces pain

2) STEAM= after oil massage mild steam =relieves stiffness and improves flexibility

DIET -freshly cooked rice, moong dal, ghee, milk and soups -sesame seeds, dates, soaked almonds, figs, raisins -vegetables= bottle gourd, ash gourd, pumpkin, spinach, beetroot -rasayana foods= milk with ghee, ashwagandha and shatavari, amla

AVOID -junk, fried, fermented or stale food -alcohol, smoking, major cause of AVN -cery spicy, sour, or dry foods -fastig, skipping meals, late night eating

HOME REMEDIES - warm milk with a pinch of turmeric+ ghee at night -bone broth or vegetable soup with sesame powder - apply warm sesame oil on hips before bath for daily pain relief

YOGA ASANAS-avoid if pain is more -tadaasana= improves posture -setu bandhasana= strengthens hips -supta padangusthasana= improves flexibility -vrikshasana= for balance and stability -pawanmuktasana= improves joint movement

AVOID = deep squats, sitting cross legged, high impact exercise

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom = balances vata -bhramari= relaxes nerves -ujjayi= improves oxygenation and circulation -nadi shuddhi= improves energy flow

LIFESTYLE TIPS -avoid running, jumping, or heavy weight lifting -use walking stick temporarily if pain severe - reduce stress onjoints -keep body warm-avoid cold exposure -maintain a consistent sleep routine -manage stress through meditation and slow breathing -regular oil massage before bath-extremely beneficial for vata balance

AVN is not reversible once collapse occurs, but Ayurveda can often halt or slow progression, reduce pain and delay prevent surgery if started early -The key is discipline and patience- it’s a 6-12 month program, combining internal medications, external therapies, proper diet, and lfiestyle modification

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

Dr ACHARYA you have indeed taken your time and explained throughly. I appreciate and definitely try the remedies. Thanks

Avascular necrosis is a serious condition where blood flow to the femoral head is reduced, leading to bone damage. While Ayurveda can support the management of symptoms and improve overall wellbeing, it’s crucial to continue working with your healthcare provider as well. In Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, the issue may be related to aggravated Vata dosha affecting bone tissue (asthi dhatu) and circulating energy (nadi). Addressing the root cause involves balancing Vata, strengthening bones, and enhancing circulation.

Firstly, consider dietary adjustments to pacify Vata, such as warm, cooked meals that are easy to digest, emphasizing ghee, which can support bone health. Include herbs known in Ayurveda for their anti-inflammatory and bone-strengthening properties, such as Ashwagandha and Shilajit. These can be taken with warm milk or as part of a herbal formulation—aim for consistency, perhaps twice a day.

Warm oil massages with medicated oils like Mahanarayan Tailam can help mitigate pain and improve circulation. Focus on gentle application around the hip and thigh. Daily oil massage before warm baths can be beneficial. Additionally, engage in gentle exercises like yoga to enhance flexibility and circulation, but avoid any strain that might exacerbate pain.

Stay hydrated, as this helps maintain joint health. Triphala can be taken for detoxification and improving digestion, helping maintain overall balance.

If your pain significantly increases or mobility reduces, prompt medical intervention may be necessary, so do not delay consulting a medical professional when needed.

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. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

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.

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. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

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. 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. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Shazia Amreen
I am Dr. Shazia Amreen, an Ayurvedic physcian with a little over 7 years of hands-on experience in clinical practice. I did my MD in Ayurveda from Government Ayurveda Medical College, Bangalore—and honestly, those years helped me go much deeper into the classical texts and the clinical ground. Not just theory... actual healing. Since 2017, I’ve worked closely with a diverse set of patients—from chronic gut problems to skin & hair concerns, musculoskeletal issues, hormonal imbalances, kidney stones, you name it. My core strength really lies in Panchakarma and gastrointestinal healing, where I don’t just jump into detox, but take time to see where the agni is, how deep the ama has gone, and whether the body’s ready to reset. I’m very rooted in classical assessment—looking at dosha imbalance, dhatu state, and prakriti before planning anything. But also, I keep it grounded in modern daily life. What’s the point of a great herbal blend if the person can’t sleep on time or digest their food properly, right? That’s why I focus big on Ahara-Vihara guidance. I don’t just hand over a diet list—I walk people through why those changes matter, and how to make them sustainable. In my practice, I often blend Rasayana chikitsa with basic lifestyle coaching, especially for cases like IBS, PCOS, eczema, migraines, or stress-triggered flareups. Each case is unique, and I don’t believe in repeating the same formula just because it worked for someone else. I also emphasize emotional reset, especially in long-standing chronic cases—sometimes people carry fear, shame, or frustration about their illness. I try to hold space for that too. Whether it’s someone coming in for general detox, a fertility consult, or just confused by their symptoms—I aim to build a plan that makes sense to them. It should feel doable. Balanced. And over time, it should make them feel like they’re coming back home to their own body. That’s the kind of Ayurvedic care I believe in—and try to deliver every single day.
