Doctors’ responses

For rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Ayurvedic principles suggest a diet that reduces inflammation, balances the doshas (especially Vata and Pitta), and strengthens the body’s immunity. Here are some modifications and recommendations that can complement your existing routine and support your health goals.

General Dietary Guidelines: Anti-Inflammatory Focus: Emphasize foods that naturally reduce inflammation, such as ginger, turmeric, black pepper, garlic, and certain spices like fenugreek and coriander. Easily Digestible Foods: Light, warm, and easily digestible meals are preferable as they are gentle on the digestive system and minimize the accumulation of “Ama” (toxins) in Ayurveda, which can aggravate arthritis. Warm and Fresh: Avoid cold, processed, or leftover foods. Freshly cooked, warm meals enhance digestion and prevent “Ama” buildup. Suggested Daily Routine

Breakfast Options

Your current breakfast options are mostly beneficial. Here are a few additional suggestions:

Moong Dal Chilla with Seasonal Vegetables: This provides protein and is lighter on digestion. Millet Porridge (Bajra, Jowar): Khichdi (with Moong Dal and Rice or Quinoa): A gentle, well-balanced meal that’s easy to digest and nourishing.

Lunch

You already have a good foundation with sabji, ragi, and wheat roti. To build on this:

Cooked Vegetables: Opt for lightly sautéed or steamed vegetables like spinach, zucchini, and pumpkin to reduce Vata. Avoid raw salads as they can be heavy on digestion. Ayurvedic Dal: Yellow or green moong dal is excellent, but try incorporating Horse Gram (Kulthi) dal once a week as it is highly beneficial for joint pain and detoxification. Spices: Add spices such as turmeric, cumin, coriander, and fenugreek seeds to your dal and sabzi for their anti-inflammatory properties. Evening Snack Options

You’re already choosing nutritious options like , makhana, and roasted chana. Avoid panjeeri. For more variety:

Ginger Tea or Tulsi Tea: Beneficial for digestion and reducing inflammation. Sweet Potato: Steamed or lightly roasted sweet potato with a sprinkle of cumin and black salt is a good option for Vata balance. Fruits: Include seasonal fruits with a low glycemic index, such as papaya, pear, and guava, which are easy to digest and won’t aggravate inflammation. Dinner

Light and Early: Aim to have a light dinner before 7 PM. Khichdi with Vegetables: A well-cooked, soft moong dal and rice khichdi with added vegetables like carrots, spinach, and zucchini is nourishing and light on digestion. Vegetable Soup with Herbs: Light vegetable soups (like pumpkin, spinach, or carrot) with a touch of ginger and black pepper are anti-inflammatory and easy on digestion. Avoid Heavy Grains: Minimize grains that are harder to digest at night, such as wheat; instead, opt for lighter options like quinoa or millet porridge. Bedtime Drink

Avoid milk. Castor Oil: You’re already using it, which is excellent for lubrication of joints, but ensure it’s used in moderation under your doctor’s guidance and in warm water. Ayurvedic Kadas & Drinks for Arthritis Methi-Tulsi Kada: Ingredients: 1/4 tsp fenugreek seeds, 5-6 tulsi leaves, 2 pinches dry ginger powder, 2 cups water. Boil all ingredients together until reduced to one cup. Strain and drink warm in the morning. Benefits: Reduces joint pain and swelling. Ajwain and Ginger Kada: Ingredients: 1/4 tsp ajwain (carom seeds), 1/2inch piece fresh ginger (crushed), a pinch of black pepper, 2 cups water. Boil ingredients, reduce to one cup, strain, and drink after meals for digestion and inflammation control. Ginger-Turmeric Tea: Ingredients: 1/2 tsp fresh grated ginger, 1/4 tsp turmeric, a pinch of black pepper, 1 tsp honey (optional). Boil the ginger and turmeric in water for 5-10 minutes, add honey, and drink warm. Take it once a day for inflammation and immunity support.

Lifestyle Tips Gentle Exercise: Regular yoga, walking, and stretching help keep the joints flexible. Warm Oil Massage: Sesame oil or Mahanarayan oil massage helps reduce stiffness and pain. Warm the oil and massage gently on affected areas. Stay Warm: Protect yourself from cold weather, as it can aggravate Vata and worsen symptoms. In Ayurveda, the emphasis is on diet, lifestyle, and daily routines that harmonize the body’s doshas, especially keeping Vata under control to reduce joint pain and inflammation. Always consult with a local Ayurvedic doctor with your reports making significant changes to ensure they complement your ongoing treatment.

For managing rheumatoid arthritis (RA) through Ayurvedic principles, your current diet is well-balanced but could benefit from a few modifications to optimize anti-inflammatory effects, digestion, and overall nourishment. In Ayurveda, balancing Vata and Ama (toxins) is crucial in managing RA, as they are often linked to joint discomfort and inflammation. Here’s how you can adapt and enhance your diet for better support:

Breakfast: Your choices of sabudana, upma, cheelas, and other light, nourishing foods are excellent, as they are gentle on digestion. You might want to rotate with moong dal cheela or ragi porridge as they are both anti-inflammatory and easier to digest. Instead of masala tea, try ginger turmeric tea or coriander-fennel tea, which helps reduce inflammation and Agni (digestive fire). You could also add warm, cooked apples or pears with a bit of cinnamon for a nourishing, anti-inflammatory start to the day.

Snacks: Your inclusion of fruits, nuts, panjeeri, and makhana is excellent. Ayurveda suggests soaked almonds (peeled) and walnuts as they are beneficial for joints. For fruits, avoid sour or acidic varieties like citrus, as they may aggravate Vata. Apples, pears, and papayas are ideal. You could include a few pieces of dried figs or dates for natural sweetness and added energy. Bhuna chana is great but can be slightly drying; consider balancing it with a few drops of ghee.

Lunch: Ragi and wheat rotis with ghee, along with moong dal and vegetables, make a grounding, nourishing meal. To further enhance this, try to focus on well-cooked, easy-to-digest vegetables like squash, carrots, or gourds, which reduce Vata and are beneficial for RA. Avoid nightshade vegetables such as tomatoes, bell peppers, potatoes, and eggplants as they can exacerbate joint pain. You can also try cumin, ajwain (carom seeds), and hing (asafoetida) in your dal or sabzi for better digestion and reduced inflammation.

Dinner: Daliya, quinoa, and millet are excellent options, as are samak rice and kuttu or singhada rotis, which are both Vata-pacifying. Since dinner should ideally be lighter, avoid anything too heavy or difficult to digest. Having haldi doodh is beneficial, but you might consider turmeric milk with a pinch of trikatu (a mix of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger) to enhance absorption and anti-inflammatory effects. Castor oil in small quantities can also help, especially for joint health.

Homemade Kadha or Drink: A beneficial drink for RA would be a warm concoction made of cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, and ginger. Boil these ingredients in water, strain, and sip it throughout the day. Another effective kadha includes turmeric, dry ginger, and a few basil leaves, which help reduce inflammation and cleanse the system.

Supplements: In Ayurveda, herbs such as Ashwagandha and Shallaki (Boswellia) are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and could benefit RA. Guggulu, especially Yograj Guggulu or Mahayograj Guggulu, is traditionally used to support joint health and ease inflammation. It’s best to consult with your Ayurvedic practitioner before starting any new supplements, as individual needs can vary.

Sure, let’s dive into this. Your current diet already showing a balanced approach but we can fine tune it with Ayurveda principles for RA (Rheumatoid Arthritis) considering dosha balance. So, generally, RA is associated with an imbalance in Vata dosha, often combined with Ama (toxic buildup in the body).

Breakfast, you’re having a fine variety like suji upma and sabudana, let’s keep those, but maybe introduce methi seeds overnight soaked in water. They’re known to help reduce Vata imbalance and you can have them first thing in the morning. I think ginger tea instead of masala tea might be more soothing, as ginger is anti-inflammatory.

With snacks, adding some turmeric tea or ginger-lemon tea later in day could help with inflammation. You’ve got nuts and fruits that’s already perfect, but try to avoid sour fruits like oranges, as they can increase Vata.

For lunch, the ragi and wheat roti is spot on along with ghee, aiding digestion. Additionally, steamed vegetables, especially those like zucchini, squash and sweet potato, lessening Vata, can be excellent. Keep the dal, it helps balance all doshas, especially in a warm soup form. Maybe have a bit of cumin and coriander powder for digestion.

Dinner, daliya or quinoa still a good choice. But samak rice and millet are also fine, with a touch of ghee to help digestion at night. Could swap out things with more warming options like cooked carrots or beets.

Regarding a homemade kada, one easy recipe is mixing equal parts ground turmeric, ginger, cumin seeds and adding a bit of black pepper. Boil with water and sip while warm! it supports digestion and inflammation.

On supplements, triphala at night in warm water can keep digestion smooth, as healthy digestion means less ama. If you’re not already, consider ashwagandha, known for boosting vitality and dealing with stress.

Ah - As always, be sure these don’t interfere with current treatments, so discussing with your doc would be wise.

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.

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. Anirudh Deshmukh
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. Isha Bhardwaj
I am someone who kinda learned early that medicine isn’t just about protocols or pills—like, it’s more about people, right? I did my BAMS with proper grounding in both classical Ayurveda and also the basics of modern med, which honestly helped me see both sides better. During internship, I got to work 6 months at Civil Hospital Sonipat—very clinical, very fast paced—and the other 6 at our own Ayurvedic hospital in the college. That mix showed me how blending traditional and integrative care isn't just theory, it actually works with real patients. After that I joined Kbir Wellness, an Ayurvedic aushdhalaya setup, where I dived into Naadi Pariksha—like really deep. It’s weird how much you can tell from pulse if you just listen right?? Doing regular consultations there sharpened my sense of prakriti, vikriti and how doshas show up subtle first. I used classical Ayurvedic texts to shape treatment plans, but always kept the patient’s routine, mental space and capacity in mind. Also I was part of some health camps around Karnal and Panipat—especially in govt schools and remote areas. That part really stays with me. You get to help ppl who dont usually have access to consistent care, and you start valuing simple awareness more than anything. I kinda think prevention should be a bigger focus in Ayurveda, like we keep talking about root cause but don’t always reach people before it gets worse. My whole method is pretty much built around that—root-cause treatment, yes, but also guiding patients on how to live with their body instead of fighting symptoms all the time. I rely a lot on traditional diagnostics like Naadi, but I mix that with practical therapies they can actually follow. No point in giving hard-to-do regimens if someone’s already overwhelmed. I keep it flexible. Most of my plans include dietary changes, natural formulations, lifestyle corrections and sometimes breathwork, daily rhythms and all that. I’m not here to just “treat illness”—what I really aim for is helping someone feel like they’ve got a handle on their own health again. That shift from just surviving to kinda thriving... that’s what I look for in every case.

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. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Karthika
I am currently a PG 2nd yr student in the dept of Shalakya Tantra at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research, batch 2024. I joined right after UG—no break—straight into PG (regular batch). I did my undergrad from Rajiv Gandhi Ayurveda Medical College (2017 batch, CCRAS syllabus under Pondicherry Univ). Somehow managed to secure 2nd rank university-wide back then, which I didn’t totally expect. Right now, my core interest lies in the Ayurvedic and integrative management of eye disorders. I’ve got decent exposure to both classical texts and clinical practice. From anatomy to pathology, I try to stay grounded in both the traditional Ayurvedic view and also the modern opthalmic understanding, especially with conditions related to the cornea, retina, and anterior segment. During PG deputation in 2nd year, I handled like 200+ OPD patients daily within 1–2 hrs (felt crazy at first but got used to the pace). I’m also trained hands-on in cataract and cornea surgeries under supervision. Not calling myself a surgeon yet, but I did get a good amout of surgical exposure in the PG postings. In terms of academics, I got 82% in the first-year PG exams—distinction score—secured department 1st and university topper at Parul Institute. Sometimes I do wonder if all this speed actually lets me go deep into each case but I’m learning to balance efficiency with proper patient care. Honestly I think that’s the biggest challenge in clinical ayurveda today—staying rooted in shastra while also being practically useful in today's overloaded OPDs. Anyway, still got a lot to learn, but I try to show up with clarity, humility and the will to keep improving every day.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
ChatGPT said: 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. 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. Prasad Pentakota
ChatGPT said: I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

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