Hi Anil,

1.Simhnada guggulu 2 tab twice daily with water after meals 2.Brahmi Ghrita 1 tsp with warm milk at bedtime 3.Ashwagandha capsules 2 cap twice daily with warm milk after meals 4.Saraswatarishta 20 ml with 20 ml water twice daily after meals 5.Shadbindu taila-2 drops in each nostril in the morning

🥗 Diet Tips - Warm, cooked foods: Favor soups, stews, khichdi, and lightly spiced vegetables. Avoid raw/cold foods. - Healthy fats: Ghee, sesame oil, and olive oil nourish nerves and reduce dryness. - Spices for circulation: Ginger, turmeric, cumin, and black pepper in moderation. - Avoid stimulants: Limit coffee, excess tea, and processed foods that aggravate Vata. - Hydration: Warm water or herbal teas (tulsi, ginger) throughout the day. - Regular meals: Eat at consistent times; skipping meals worsens Vata imbalance.

🧘 Lifestyle & Routine - Daily Abhyanga (oil massage): Warm sesame oil or Mahanarayan Taila applied to neck, shoulders, and scalp before a warm shower. - Stress management: Practice meditation, yoga nidra, or pranayama (especially Anulom Vilom and Bhramari). - Gentle yoga: Neck stretches, Shavasana, Balasana (child’s pose), and Setu Bandhasana (bridge pose) to release stiffness. - Sleep hygiene: Go to bed by 10 pm; deep, regular sleep calms Vata. - Avoid overexertion: Reduce long hours at screens; take breaks to stretch and relax eyes/neck. - Warm environment: Protect yourself from cold drafts; Vata aggravates in cold/dry climates.

Warm Regards Dr.Anjali Sehrawat

Hello​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Anil ji, I absolutely comprehend how unsettling and frightening a one-sided head and neck feeling of tightness can be especially when it causes your eye alignment to change and makes your daily activities difficult. However, don’t worry, we are here to assist you 😊

✅ AYURVEDIC VIEW AND PROBABLE CAUSES

Your symptoms sound like a mixture of: 👉Vata Vyadhi (chronic Vata aggravation) Due to: Long stress Overthinking Irregular routine Poor sleep Vata becomes aggravated and migrates to the right side of Shirah (head) and Greeva (neck).

This results in: –Tightness / stiffness – Heaviness around the eye –Trapezius and mastoid muscle tension – Difficulty in proper eye focus/alignment –Occasional nerve-like pulling pain

👉Cervical Spondylosis

The tightness that is spreading to: Right side of the neck Behind the ear indicates that the occipital nerve + cervical muscles are involved.

👉 Stress + Eye Strain

Stress, which is the main cause of Vata, leads to: –Eye strain – Pulsating stiffness – Difficulty in relaxing the eye muscles

✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

1 Ekangveer Ras – 1-0-1 After food (One of the best medicines for one-sided nerve stiffness, cervical nerve involvement.)

2 Brahmi Capsule 1 capsule each, at night (Calms the mind, relieves stress Vata, helps the head and neck muscles to relax.)

3 Yograj Guggul – 1-0-1 After lunch and dinner (Muscular stiffness and nerve compression are the main causes of the pain, the medicine takes the pain away.)

4 Ksheerabala 101 capsule 1 capsule at night with warm water (Among the best Ayurvedic medicines for chronic Vata of the head and neck.)

✅ EXTERNAL CARE

Your condition will greatly improve with these methods rather than with tablets.

👉Mahanarayan Taila Hot Massage Daily apply the warm oil on: Neck Behind the ear Shoulder joint Massage gently for 10 minutes follow with hot fomentation.

👉 Shiro Abhyanga (Head massage) Use: Ksheerabala Taila Every night before sleep. ( Helps to relieve tightness in the scalp and eye strain.)

👉Eye strain relief

Soak cotton in rose water + cold water Put it on the eyes for 10 minutes Right eye muscles get relaxed.

✅HOME REMEDIES

1. Warm Ghee + Milk at Night 1 cup warm milk + 1 tsp ghee Vata balancing Better sleep Soothes brain and neck nerves.

2. Ginger + Ajwain Hot Water Take sips throughout the day Helps in the reduction of stiffness and dryness inside the nerves.

3. Hot compress with rock salt Put rock salt in a cloth, heat it slightly, and apply on the area that is stiff. Great for muscle relaxation.

4. Breathing Exercise (Most Important) Anulom-Vilom 10 minutes morning + evening Very effective in relieving the right-sided tension.

✅DIET AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

✔️Eat more Warm cooked food Ghee Soups, khichdi Almonds (soaked) Dates milk Turmeric Garlic

❌Avoid: Cold foods & drinks Excess tea/coffee Long screen time Sleeping late Mentally stressing working without breaks

Your symptoms are typical of a Vata-related disorder of the head and neck, which is very treatable with Ayurveda.

With regular treatment for 6–8 weeks, you will be significantly ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌relieved from this stiffness

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

Hello Anil

From what you have mentioned the constant tightness on the right side of the head, the pulling sensation around the right eye, this stiffness behind the year, and this pattern usually comes from a long-standing imbalance in the nurse and muscles over the head neck When the nerve is on one side, stay irritated for months or years. The muscles around that area become dry tight and contracted. Slowly. The entire side starts feeling heavy, pulled and stiff from inside and many patient describe it exactly, Asif right brain itself feels tight, even the difficulty in aligning the right eye can happen because the tiny muscle around the eye gets trained when there is constant tension along the neck and the area behind the ear

This happens, mostly when the upper neck joined the base of the skill and it tissues behind the ear lose their normal flexibility The circulation on that side becomes slightly reduced with use a deep dull man side tightness.stress, Long hours of screen use , sleeping on one side or past injury can make it worse This is a treatable condition, but it responds best when the muscle and nerves are softened lubricated And warmed regularly rather than only through tablets You can start on Maharasnadi guggulu Rasnasaprakam 1 tablet twice daily after food Dashamoola aristha 4 teaspoon with equal amount of water twice daily after meals Ashwagandha churna 1/2 of teaspoon with warm milk at night Brahmi gritha 1 tsp at morning Mahanarayana taila-gentle Massage to be done After oil application, use mild steam only on the right neck and behind the ear area Avoid sleeping on the right side Do eye exercise exercises Do not get overstrain Avoid exposure to cold Do mild neck exercises If you’re getting dizziness or weakness, then better to get MRI cervical spine and brain

Namaste Anil ji

Thank you for sharing detailed description of your symptoms Right side stiffness involving the head, neck area around the eye and the region behind the ear , and sometimes affecting the eye alignment. Ayurveda, this pattern is typically understood as an aggravation of. Vata Dosha which governs movement and the nervous system, when vata becomes excessive or trapped, it can produce dryness, restriction, and localised tension The fact that the discomfort is one-sided, suggest a localised accumulation of vata possibly exacerbated by cold exposure, irregular routine or mental strain To address the current symptoms and to restore balance, the following approach combines external application and internal Ayurvedic support, dietary guidance and lifestyle adjustment . first of all, you can take warm, sesame oil, and gently massage into right side of the neck, shoulders, scalp, and the area behind the ear using slow clockwise/for 5 to 7 minutes, follow the massage with a warm compress ( towel soaked in hot water)-keep it for 3 to 5 minutes-do it twice daily Do nasya with anu taila -one drop to each nostril Internally start on Ashwagandha capsule Brahmi vati Trayodashanga guggulu Each tablets two times in a day after food with warm water Jatamamsi churna-1/4 th teaspoon with warm water with once daily Triphala churna-1 teaspoon with warm water at night If you find the stiffness intensifies after exposure to cold wind or after prolonged mental work, a weekly shirodhara session-( where medicated oil is poured over forehead) will provide some benefit For a more targeted vata balance-Panchakarma procedure is beneficial

In diet, take warm, cooked meals, easy to digest food soups stews cooked vegetables Avoid cold beverages raw salads, excessive cafe, especially in the evening as they can agrevate vata Keep yourself hydrated and drink warm water throughout the day Sleep before 10:30 PM Yoga posters like cat cow , forward, banks, and simple neck rotation will be beneficial Practice Nadi Shodana for 5 to 10 minutes,

After 2 to 3 weeks of consistent practice, evaluate any changes in the intensity or frequency of these stiffness If there is little improvement or if new visual disturbances, develop, please see a face to face consultation with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a more individualised assessment and possible adjustment of the regimen

Dr. Soukhya Hiremath
I am Dr Soukhya, completed my BAMS degree under Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Science, and sometimes I still can’t believe how fast that year of full-time practice went by… feels like I m still figuring small things while already handling so many female disorders and skin related conditions every day. I work mostly with Ayurveda treatments for gynic cases, hormonal ups-and-downs, chronic skin troubles and a few other things that always need more gentle hands than people expect. I am practicing for a year now, but honestly the learning kind of never stop, each patient shows something new… sometimes I even pause thinking “wait, did I explain that right” and then go again with more clarity. My focus stays on understanding the root-cause, balancing doshas properly, and giving care that feel practical not over complicated. I treated many gynic issues, from irregular cycles to pregnency related discomforts, and a lot of cosmetology concerns too (acne, pigmentation and stuff that people get worried about really quickly!). I am also running offline yoga classes for pregnant women and others too… it started simple but grew into this small supportive space where I see how much differnce breathing and mindful movement makes. Sometimes the schedule gets messy, or I m not sure if the batch timing was perfect, but the sessions still turn meaningful. Ayurveda, yoga, routine corrections — all these tie together in my approach. I try to keep things straighforward, even if my notes get a bit scattered here and there or a comma miss somewhere, but the intention stays steady: help people feel better with methods that respect body’s natural healing.

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.

Hello Anil,

Thank you for describing your symptoms so clearly. Your chronic right-sided head stiffness, neck tightness, periorbital strain, and difficulty aligning the right eye — especially worsening with stress — suggest a Vata-Pitta imbalance, along with Mamsa Dhatu (muscle) stiffness and Urdhwajatrugata Vata (head & neck Vata disturbance). The treatment aim will be to reduce Vata, relax neck–cranial muscles, improve nerve conduction, reduce eye strain, and calm stress-induced flare-ups.

🔎 Recommended Investigations 1. Cervical spine X-ray (or MRI if symptoms are severe) – to check for spondylosis, nerve compression. 2. Vitamin D3 & B12 levels – deficiencies commonly cause muscle tightness and nerve issues. 3. Thyroid profile – thyroid imbalance can worsen muscle tension. 4. Eye evaluation (refraction + muscle balance test) – to rule out convergence insufficiency or extraocular muscle strain. 5. Blood pressure check – stress-related stiffness can correlate with fluctuations.

💊 Internal Medicines Phase 1 – 15 days (Vata–Pitta Shamana & Muscle Relaxation) 1. Ksheerabala 101 (Capsule or drops) – 1 capsule or 10 drops at bedtime with warm water. Excellent for nerve and head–neck Vata calming. 2. Gandharvahastadi Kashayam – 15 ml with 30 ml of warm water twice daily before food. Reduces stiffness, improves circulation, relieves trapped Vata. 3. Sukumar Ghritam – 1 tsp early morning empty stomach. Lubricates nerves, reduces dryness, relieves head tightness.

Phase 2 – 45 days (Nadi-Pushti & Muscle Strengthening) 1. Brahmi Vati (Plain) – 1 tablet twice daily. Calms overactive stress pathways & supports eye coordination. 2. Ashwagandha Arishta – 15 ml with equal warm water after meals. Relieves muscle tension + stress. 3. Dhanwantharam Gulika – 1 tablet twice daily after meals. Classic formulation for neck–shoulder stiffness & nerve strength. 4. Saptamrita Lauha – 1 tablet twice daily after food. Excellent for eye strain, dryness, and periorbital stiffness. 🌿 External & Supportive Therapies 1. Abhyanga (Oil Massage) – warm Mahanarayana taila or Ksheerabala taila Apply over neck, shoulders, behind the ear, and right side of head 4 times per week before warm bath Deeply relieves nerve tension.

2. Nadi Swedana (Localized steam) Steam only on right neck, behind ear, and side of head After oil massage Releases stiffness instantly.

3. Shiroabhyanga (Head massage) With Brahmi oil or Neelibhringadi before sleep Improves brain-muscle coordination. 4. Netra Tarpana (Only under supervision) For chronic eye strain & alignment issues

🥗 Diet & Lifestyle Recommendations ❌ Avoid: 1. Cold foods, refrigerated water 2. Long screen time without breaks 3. Sleeping late (increases Vata) 4. Skipping meals 5. Excess spicy or sour foods (triggers Pitta near eyes)

✅ Include: 1. Warm, fresh meals with ghee 2. Spices: ginger, cumin, ajwain, turmeric 3. Warm water throughout the day 4. A cup of Brahmi tea or ashwagandha milk at night 5. Regular meals, early dinner (before 8 pm)

🧘🏻‍♂️ Yoga & Pranayama * Gentle Asanas (Daily) * Supta Baddha Konasana * Shashankasana * Viparita Karani (10 minutes) * Neck rotation & isometric neck exercises Helps release cervical nerve and eye-muscle tension. * Pranayama * Anulom–Vilom – 10 min * Bhramari – 10 rounds (fantastic for head pressure) * Nadi Shuddhi – reduces eye & head strain

🕉️ Follow-up & Duration * Expect gradual relief in 4–6 weeks * Significant improvement in alignment & stiffness in 8–12 weeks * Continue nerve-strengthening medicines for 3 months

With consistent therapy, neck–cranial tension and right-sided eye strain usually settle well. Healing the Vata pathway takes patience, but results are steady and long-lasting.

With kind regards, Dr. Sumi

HELLO,

Your symptoms include -stiffness on right side of the head/brain region -tightness around the right eye -stiffness behind the right ear -neck pain and stiffness on the same side -symptoms worsen during stress -difficulty aligning of focusing the right eye sometimes

Ayurveda views this as a disturbance in the vata dosha, particularly 1)Prana vata= controls the brain, eyes, head , concentration

2)Vyana vata= controls muscle movement, circulation

3)Udana vata= controls neck, head and coordination

4) Kapha accumulation= causing heaviness and congested feeling behind ear/eye

When vata becomes imbalanced (due to stress, irregular lifestyle, excessive screen use, lack of sleep, anxiety) , it causes -tightening of scalp and neck muscles -reduced blood flow to one side of the head -eye strain and difficulty focusing -A pulling or stiff sensation -Increased sensitivity to stress

You are essentially experiencing -chronic vata imbalance in the right side of head-neck-eye complex, along with mild kapha blockage -This leads to muscle guarding, nerve strain, eye muscle fatigue, and asymmetrical tension

This is not uncommon but the chronic duration makes it important to treat thoroughly

TREATMENT GOALS -balance aggravated vata -relax and heal head and neck muscles -improve nerve nourishment in the right side -improve blood circulation to the eye, head, and neck -reduce stress- induced tightening -remove kapha blockage behind ear/eye -enhance eye muscle coordination -remove toxins (ama) from muscle tissue

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) YOGARAJ GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months =classic formula for chronic neck stiffness, breaks vata-kapha blockage, relieves muscle knots and nerve compression

2) KSHEERNALA 101 CAPSULE= 1 cap at bedtime for 2 months =nourishes cranial nerves, very effective for one sided head tension

3) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA= 1 tsp daily after food with warm milk for 12 weeks = calms prana vata, reduces stress-triggered muscle tightening, strengthens nerves and improves sleep

4) BRAHMI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3 months =improves brain circulation, reduces head pressure, supports eye brain coordination, clears fogginess

5) TAGAR CAPSULE= 250mg at night for 4 weeks =relaxes deep head and neck muscles, improves sleep quality (which is important for vata)

Chronic tightness, especially around the head, neck, and eye areas may indicate an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which governs movement and neural functions. To address these symptoms, you might consider a multi-faceted approached grounded in ayurvedic wisdom.

First, start with Abhyanga, a daily self-massage using warm sesame oil. Focus on gently massaging the scalp, neck, and behind the ears. This process aids in pacifying Vata and relaxing tense muscles. Allocate about 15 minutes for the massage, then bathe or shower to remove the excess oil afterward. If allergic to sesame oil, try almond oil as an alternative.

Dietary adjustments can also play a pivotal role. Include warm, cooked meals with a focus on oily, soft, and nourishing foods – like kitchari, soups, and stews. Favor spices such as ginger, turmeric, and asafoetida to promote circulation and digestion, which supports Vata balance. Ensure regular meals, avoiding excess cold, raw or dry foods.

Incorporate breathing exercises such as Anulom Vilom (alternate nostril breathing) to calm the nervous system. Spend at least 10 minutes in the morning and another 10 in the evening on this pranayama for effective results. Deep, slow breathing helps alleviate stress and tension, which often exacerbate Vata disturbances.

For more localized relief, apply a warm compress to the affected areas around the eye and neck. A cloth dipped in warm water, squeezed out, and placed on the stiff regions for 5-10 minutes can ease discomfort. Avoid ice or cold packs as they can increase Vata imbalance.

Avoid excessive screen time and engage in gentle activities such as yoga or Tai Chi, which focus on fluid movements without strain. Lastly, it would be wise to consult a healthcare professional immediately to rule out any serious underlying conditions, as persistent head and neck tightness could signify critical issues requiring medical attention.

Chronic tightness in the right brain extending to the neck, eye, and area behind the ear may be associated with vata and pitta imbalance in the Siddha-Ayurvedic context. Firstly, it’s crucial to ensure this condition isn’t related to any serious neurological issues. Consultation with a neurologist is advised to rule out any critical concerns.

In terms of Ayurvedic approaches, start with a focus on balancing vata. Incorporate warm, nourishing foods into your diet that are grounding—think warm soups and stews with spices like ginger and turmeric which help in reducing inflammation and vata disturbance. Try minimizing cold, dry, and raw foods which can aggravate vata.

Daily self-massage (abhyanga) using warm sesame oil can aid in relieving tension. Focus on the right neck side, servicing the area around the shoulder and base of the skull to the extent possible. Follow this with a warm bath to relax muscles further.

Nasya treatment might be beneficial; apply a couple of drops of Anu taila in each nostril in the morning. This fosters sinus clarity and helps in pacifying vata in the head region.

Incorporating stress-reducing practices like meditation or pranayama (alternate nostril breathing) will help soothe your mind and calm the doshas. Shirodhara, if accessible, offers profound relaxation and balances vata and pitta in the mind.

Prioritize sufficient rest and steady sleep patterns, as destabilized sleep can exacerbate vata imbalance. Ensure the sleep environment is calming without disruptions.

If symptoms persist, consider visiting an Ayurvedic practitioner to tailor a regimen specific to your prakriti, recognizing the root imbalance underlying the symptoms. This personalized approach can further refine dietary and lifestyle interventions for lasting relief.

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

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

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

Dr. 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. Ankit Rathore
I am someone who really got to feel the weight of actual practice during my one year internship at the civil hospital. It wasn’t just routine—it was a daily crash course in reality, where textbook cases didn’t always match what walked through the door. I spent long hours rotating through departments—OPD, emergency, minor OT, even labor rooms—and yeah, each one taught me something I couldn’t’ve learned sitting in lectures. There were days I saw over 40–50 patients in OPD, most with multilayered complaints—gastritis mixed with anxiety, or skin rashes that flared worse in stressy situations. I had to listen sharp, note quick, and still not miss anything. Like, once I forgot to double-check a sugar reading and the case shifted entirely, and that messed with me a bit. You learn from these things tho. I did. Civil hospital life means working with all types of ppl—those with chronic issues like joint pain, those rushing in with acute fevers, and sometimes those who just need someone to explain their condition calmly. I handled case sheets, helped in rounds, observed surgeries (some minor, some I couldn’t stop thinking about later tbh), managed herbal prescriptions under supervision, and did a lotta counseling, which is underrated honestly. One thing that stood out to me was how often symptoms were being treated but not the pattern behind them. Like repeat migraines? Usually it was more about sleep or stress than just pain. That shifted how I approached things. Made me dig deeper, not just ask "what hurts" but also "since when and what else changed?" The internship taught me to act quick but also pause when needed, speak confidently but also shut up and learn when I didn’t know something—trust me, those moments happened too. It gave me the ground reality of how Ayurvedic support can sit side-by-side with hospital protocols. Not everything went smooth—forgot a file once, mixed two doses (minor issue but still), and yeah, sometimes I was too cautious when I shoud've acted faster. But that year shaped me... more than anything else. And I carry all that messiness and learning into my practice now, everyday.

Dr. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Mandeep Sharma
I am a doctor with about 22 years of experience working closely with chronic patients, and also with special children, and that long time in practice has shaped how I see medicine day to day. My work is focused on long-term care, chronic disease management, and supporting children with special needs, which is demanding and sometimes a bit heavy, but also very grounding. Over the years I have learned that treating chronic conditions is rarely straight line progress, and patients dont always fit into neat plans or textbook descriptions. I am deeply involved in ongoing care rather than quick fixes, following patients over time and adjusting treatment as their needs change, sometimes slowly, sometimes all at once. Working with special children has required patience, flexibility, and attention to small details that others might miss, and honestly I am still learning from them even after two decades. My approach is practical and calm, with a strong focus on continuity of care, symptom control, and improving daily function, not just lab numbers or reports. I am careful to listen, even when the story comes out messy or incomplete, because chronic illness rarely shows up clearly on first try. Some days the work feels straightforward, other days less clear, but I stay committed to providing consistent medical support that families can rely on. I try to balance clinical judgement with human understanding, though I get it wrong sometimes, and then I adjust. After 22 years in this field, I still believe steady care, clear communication, and realistic planning matter more then promises that sound good!!

Dr. Basavarajeshwari B
I am a holistic Ayurvedic physician focused on healing that connects the body, mind, and day to day life in a practical way. My academic journey started at DGMAMC, where I completed my graduation in Ayurveda, followed by a Master’s degree in Roganidana from SDM College of Ayurveda and Hospital, Hassan, which shaped how I look at disease from the root level rather than just symptoms. During my training, I received extensive clinical exposure in both OPD and IPD settings, learning directly through patient care at these institutions. Later, I worked for over 2 years at Shri Jagadguru Gavisiddeswara Ayurvedic Medical College, Koppal, managing a wide range of clinical cases. Those years taught me patience, clinical clarity, and also how unpredictable real healing can be sometimes. My practice is based on personalized, evidence-based Ayurvedic medicine, with strong focus on diagnosis, preventive healthcare, and long-term sustainable healing. I spend time understanding prakriti, lifestyle patterns, and underlying imbalances, even when it takes longer than expected or feels repetitive. Ayurveda, for me, works best when care is individualised and realistic, not rushed. I believe true healing happens through the alchemy of mind and body, though I am still learning how deeply connected they really are. I try to offer care that is attentive, compassionate and accessible, and I stay available to my patients on call when they need guidance, even outside regular hours. Some days are intense, some quieter, but the commitment stays the same—supporting health in a way that feels grounded, honest, and human..

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.
