HELLO

YOU HAVE -long term back pain -tingling in joints -a feeling of imbalance or weakness -headache -stress trigger -long term alcohol and smoking habits

In Ayurveda , this cluster of symptoms almost always points to a chronic vata imbalance in the body

WHY THIS HAPPENS

VATA AGGRAVATION

VATA GOVERNS= nerves, movement, joints, balance, mental clarity

When vata increases due to= smoking, alcohol ,stress, lack of proper food, improper sleep, overthinking, dehydration

It causes= pain, tingling, stiffness, headache, feeling of lightness/imbalance, nerve irritability

ACCUMULATION OF AMA (toxins)= your lifestyle habits slow down digestion-> toxins accumulate in tissues-> joints and nerves become weak

NERVOUS SYSTEM BECOMES DRY -alcohol + smoking + stress dehydrate the body-> nerve coverings lose lubrication-> tingling starts

TREATMENT GOALS -reduce vata aggravation -remove toxins -strengthen nerves -calm the mind and sleep -slowly reduce alcohol/smoking dependency

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

A) FOR BACK PAIN AND VATA BALANCE

1) DASHMOOLA KASHAYA= 20 ml + equal water twice daily after meals for 6-8 weeks =reduces chronic inflamamtion, relieves stiffness, balances vata

2) RASNA SAPTAKA KSHAYA= 15 ml + equal water twice daily after meals =excellent for back + joint pain, improves mobility

B) FOR NERVE STRENGTH AND TINGLING

3) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm milk at night for 3 months =nerve tonic , reduce stress, improve sleep, strengthens muscles

4) BALA ASHWAGANDHADHI TAILA= 10 drops in milk once daily =help nerve nourishment

C) FOR STRESS AND HEADACHE

5) BRAHMI VATI= 1 tab twice daily afte rmeals =calms mind, improves headache, reduces stress - triggered pain

6) JATAMANSI CHURNA= 1/4 tsp at bedtime with warm water =deep mental relaxation, releives stress headaches

FOR TOXIN REMOVAL

-TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at night =cleans digestion, removes accumulated toxins, improves metabolism

EXTERNAL TREATMENT

1) DAILY. OIL MASSAGE= Mahanarayan taila =warm oil -> gentle massage lower back, neck, joints-> warm shower after 30 min =lubricates joints, nourishes nerves, reduces pain + tingling

2) MILD STEAM THERAPY= improves circulation, removes muscle stiffness, clears toxins,

DIET -warm rice, khichdi, wheat preparations -moong dal -warm soups, dal soup, veggie soup -cow ghee 1 tsp/day -nuts= soaked almonds, walnuts -warm water -milk with turmeric -cooked vegetables = bottle gourd, pumpkin, carrots, beets

AVOID -cold foods -dry foods - chips, biscuits -sour foods- pickle, vinegar -too much spicy foods -heavy meats -excess coffee/tea -skipping meals -ice water

YOGA- FOR BACK, NERVES, STRESS

ASANAS -marjariasana -bhujangasana -setu bandhasana -pawanmuktasana -balasana -makarasana -tadasana

PRANAYAM -Anulom bilom- nerve calming -bhramari headache + stress -Ujjayi-relaxes mind -deep belly breathing

HOME REMEDIES 1) GINGER + CORIANDER + CUMIN TEA=drink twice daily = vata reduction, ama clearing

2) TURMERIC + BLACK PEPPER IN WARM MILK at night= reduces inflammation + nerve pain

3) WARM SALT COMPRESSION -over back for 15 min= reduces stiffness

Dr. Sumi. S
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic physician with specialized expertise in Shalakya Tantra, focusing on the diagnosis and management of disorders affecting the Netra (eyes), Karna (ears), Nasa (nose), Mukha (oral cavity), Danta (teeth), and Shira (head and ENT region). My training and clinical experience have equipped me to treat a wide range of conditions such as Netra Abhishyanda (conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early and advanced cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Karna Nada (tinnitus), Pratishyaya (chronic rhinitis and sinusitis), Mukhapaka (oral ulcers), Dantaharsha (dental sensitivity), and Shirashoola (headache and migraine). I routinely incorporate classical Ayurvedic therapeutic techniques like Kriya Kalpas, Nasya, Tarpana, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, Gandusha, Pratisarana, and Dhoomapana, along with internal Rasayana and Shamana therapies, ensuring treatments are both effective and tailored to each patient’s prakriti and condition. Beyond my specialization, I bring over two years of clinical experience managing multi-systemic disorders. My approach blends classical Ayurvedic principles with a sound understanding of modern diagnostics and pathology, allowing me to handle cases related to metabolic disorders (such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and PCOS), musculoskeletal issues (like arthritis and back pain), gastrointestinal disorders, skin conditions, and women’s health concerns, including infertility and hormonal imbalance. I believe in evidence-informed practice, patient education, and holistic healing. My focus is always on delivering compassionate care that empowers patients to actively participate in their health journey. Through continuous learning and clinical research, I remain committed to upholding the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda in a way that aligns with today’s healthcare needs.

Hello, Thank you for explaining your condition in detail. Your combination of chronic back pain, body heaviness, tingling sensations, and stress-related headaches, along with regular alcohol intake and chain smoking, indicates significant Vata–Toxa imbalance, poor circulation, nerve irritation, and early weakness of bones & muscles (Asthi–Majja dhatu kshaya). Alcohol and smoking further aggravate Vata, weaken digestion, inflame nerves, and slow healing. The aim of treatment will be to calm Vata, strengthen the spine and nerves, improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and gradually reduce the toxin load created by smoking and alcohol.

🔎 Recommended Investigations 1.Vitamin B12 – deficiency causes tingling, numbness, fatigue. 2.Vitamin D3 – low levels cause chronic back pain. 3.HbA1c – rule out early diabetic neuropathy. 4.Lipid profile – smoking affects heart & circulation. 5.Liver function test (LFT) – alcohol affects liver metabolism. 6.X-ray / MRI Lumbar spine if pain radiates down legs.

💊 Internal Medicines Phase 1 – 30 days (Nerve Support, Anti-inflammatory, Vata Balancing) 1.Dashmoola Kashaya – 15 ml with 30 ml of warm water before food twice daily. 2.Yogaraj Guggulu – 2 tablet twice daily after food (for back & joints). Neuro-support tablets: 3.Ashwagandha tablet – 1 at bedtime. 4.Punarnavadi Mandoor – 1 tablet twice daily to remove heaviness & swelling. 5.Giloy tablet – 1 tablet twice daily to reduce inflammation & toxins.

Phase 2 – 45 days (Strengthen Spine & Nerves) 1.Rasnadi Kashayam – 15 ml with 30ml of warm water before food 2.Triphala guggulu - 2 tablets after food with warm water twice daily 3.Chyawanprash – 1 tsp every morning to rebuild strength.

🌿 External & Supportive Therapies 1.Daily warm oil massage (Abhyanga) with Mahanarayana taila on back & joints. 2.Hot fomentation (hot water bag) 15 minutes daily over lower back. 3.Kati Basti or Potli massage (if available at an Ayurvedic clinic) – excellent for chronic back pain. 4.Steam therapy (svedana) weekly for nerve relaxation.

🥗 Diet & Lifestyle Recommendations ❌ Avoid: Alcohol (major cause of nerve weakness). Smoking (reduces blood flow to spine & nerves). Cold, dry foods & skipping meals – worsens Vata. Excess spicy, sour foods (increase inflammation). Long periods of sitting. ✅ Include: Warm, freshly cooked meals with ghee (improves nerve lubrication). Turmeric milk at bedtime. Nuts & seeds (almonds, walnuts, sesame) for bone strength. Hydration – 2–2.5 L water daily. Ginger tea, tulsi tea, cinnamon tea to reduce toxin buildup.

🧘🏻‍♂️ Yoga & Pranayama Spine strengthening asanas: Bhujangasana Setu Bandhasana Cat-Cow (Marjariasana) Vajrasana Pawanmuktasana Pranayama: Anulom Vilom – 10 minutes Bhramari – reduces headache & stress Shitali – calming for nervous system Daily 20–30 minutes walking is essential.

🕉️ Follow-up & Duration Back pain improves in 2–4 weeks. Tingling reduces in 4–6 weeks with B12 + nerve tonics. Full nerve & spine strength returns in 2–3 months. Reducing alcohol & smoking will make the improvement faster and long-lasting. ✨ With consistent nerve support, proper diet, warm therapies, and reducing alcohol & smoking, your back, nerves, and overall energy will improve steadily. This healing requires commitment but gives long-term relief.

With kind regards, Dr. Sumi

Hello I‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌ understand that you have been experiencing backache, body weakness, and tingling in the joints along with headaches for over six months. Besides, your pattern of drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes regularly is also a major factor to the symptoms you have. But don’t be anxious we got you 😊

✅AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING

The signs and symptoms of the patient lead the physician to understand that the patient is suffering from–

Aggravated Vata Dosha Dryness and weakness of nerves & joints Pitta irritation due to smoking + alcohol The dhatus of the body - Rasa and Majja - are Stressed-out person is a major trigger

The above mixture brings about: Backache Tingling/paresthesia in joints Headache Fatigue and imbalance in the body

✅PANCHAKARMA THERAPY

Such a procedure must be done at the nearest panchakarma center

1. Abhyanga + Swedana (7 days) Full body massage with Dashmoola Taila Steam was given after the massage It is very effective in muscle relaxation, Vata reduction, and pain alleviation.

2. Kati Basti (7 days) Local oil-retention method for alleviating lower back pain.

3. Matra Basti (7 days) 60 ml Balashwagandhadi Taila Very effective for nerve repair, tingling, and chronic Vata disorders.

✅INTERNAL MEDICATION

1. Maharasnadi Kashayam - 15 ml with warm water, twice daily (Back pain and stiffness relief.)

2. Dhanvantaram Gulika. 1 tablet twice daily after meals (Good for Vata disorders, pain, and tingling.)

3. Palsineuron 1-0-1 after food (Nerve nourishment & strength.)

4. Brahmi Vati 1 tablet at bedtime (Helping headache, stress, and sleep)

Important Keep on using alcohol and smoking will lessen the effectiveness of Ayurvedic medicine by 40–60%. Even slow reduction will be good for your recovery.

✅EXTERNAL CARE

If panchakarma is not available or possible Daily oil massage with Mahanaryana taila followed by a warm water bath

✅HOME REMEDIES

(Very Effective)

1. Turmeric + Ashwagandha Milk ½ tsp of turmeric and ½ tsp of ashwagandha in warm milk at night A Vata-pacifying product and a nerve healer.

2. Garlic Oil Massage Warm garlic-infused sesame oil and apply it on the lower back regularly.

3. Dry Ginger Water ¼ tsp of dry ginger in warm water every morning It helps in bringing up the blood flow → thus tingling will lessen.

4. Gentle Yoga (10 minutes daily)Cat–cow stretch Cobra pose, Leg pawanmuktasana, Very good Vata balancing.

✅DIET MODIFICATION

Include: Warm, fresh, cooked food Ghee every day Moong dal, khichdi Soaked almonds, dates, sesame seeds Warm water all day long

Avoid: Alcohol & smoking Cold drinks, fridge food Fast food, bakery items Excess tea/coffee

✅LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION 7–8 hours of sleep Limit the use of screens Keep yourself warm; don’t let the cold air in Always sit with proper back support Slow and deep breathing for 5 minutes twice a day Reduce stress triggers

If you combine consistent treatment with external care, you will definitely see the alleviation of body pain and tingling sensation

Good health is what I wish for you😊

Warm Regards, Dr Snehal ‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌Vidhate

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.

For addressing your backache and tingling sensation, Ayurveda can offer some supportive remedies. Considering your lifestyle habits such as smoking and alcohol, it’s crucial to begin with gradual lifestyle changes to address the root causes. The combination of back pain, tingling in joints, and headaches may indicate an aggravated Vata dosha, disrupted by lifestyle choices affecting your body’s balance.

First and foremost, consider incorporating ashwagandha or Brahmi supplements into your daily routine. Take ashwagandha churna or tablets, about 500 mg to 1g twice daily, as it helps to reduce Vata imbalance and has a calming effect on the nervous system. Please consult a healthcare professional to determine the appropriate dosage for you.

For immediate relief of back pain, regular application of warm sesame oil, known for its Vata-pacifying properties, can be soothing. Gently massage your back and joints at least once daily, preferably before bath. Using a warm compress thereafter can enhance the effect.

In terms of diet, aim to consume warm, unctuous foods that counteract the drying nature of Vata. Cooked grains, turmeric milk, and warm soups with a pinch of ginger are ideal. Avoid cold, raw foods and overprocessed substances which can disturb digestion and increase Vata.

Your habit of smoking and alcohol use further imbalances Vata and adds toxins to your body, known as ‘ama’. Cutting down on these gradually while incorporating detoxifying teas such as coriander or fennel tea could assist in reducing ama.

Practices like Pranayama and meditation daily can also help calm the mind and reduce headaches triggered by stress and Vata imbalance. Gentle yoga or stretching may improve flexibility and strengthen your back over time.

These adjustments need consistency and time to observe significant benefits. If symptoms get worse or persist, seek prompt medical evaluation, as thorough investigation is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment.

The combination of your symptoms like backache, tingling sensations, and headache, along with alcohol and smoking habits, indicates a possible Vata imbalance, often exacerbated by lifestyle choices. To tackle these issues sustainably, it would be important to address both the symptoms and underlying causes.

For your backache, applying warm sesame oil mixed with a pinch of dry ginger powder can be beneficial. Massage gently onto the affected area twice daily. This can help alleviate discomfort and improve circulation. Following the massage, a warm compress might help relax the muscles.

The tingling in the joints points towards potential imbalance in Vata and maybe weakness in bone and nerve tissues (asthi and majja dhatu). A supplement such as ashwagandha taken in powdered form, 1 teaspoon with warm milk at night, can help nourish these tissues and calm Vata.

In terms of lifestyle adjustments, reducing alcohol consumption and smoking is crucial. These habits not only disturb Vata but pitta too—leading to further imbalance and symptoms like headaches and body ache. Instead, incorporate practices like yoga or gentle stretching, particularly focusing on the spine’s flexibility.

Diet plays a significant role; favor warm, cooked foods, and stay away from dry, cold, or raw items for now. You could also start your day with a glass of hot water infused with lemon juice and a pinch of turmeric; this can enhance digestion and slowly improve internal balance.

If the headache persists severely or intensifies, I recommend consulting a healthcare professional to rule out serious conditions. Take these steps alongside your regular medical advice to gradually address the underlying issues.

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. 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. 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. 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.

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. 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.

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

Dr. 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. 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. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.
