Where to beginरोग परीक्षा

What brings you here?

Start with the symptom you actually notice. We work backwards to the pattern causing it.

All concerns

Digestion & Acidity

अग्निमांद्य

Bloating, reflux, irregular bowels and food sensitivities usually trace back to a disturbed digestive fire rather than the last meal.

  • Acidity and reflux
  • Bloating after meals
  • IBS

Stress, Anxiety & Sleep

निद्रानाश

A nervous system stuck in high alert disturbs sleep, digestion and mood together. Ayurveda treats them as one pattern, not three problems.

  • Difficulty falling asleep
  • Waking at 3 AM
  • Racing thoughts

Skin & Hair

त्वक् विकार

Persistent skin conditions rarely resolve from the outside. We work on the blood, liver and digestion that feed the skin.

  • Eczema and psoriasis
  • Hormonal acne
  • Hair fall

Joint Pain & Arthritis

सन्धिवात

Stiffness that is worse in the cold and on waking points to Vata in the joints — which responds well to oleation and Basti.

  • Morning stiffness
  • Knee and lower back pain
  • Rheumatoid arthritis

Women's Health & PCOS

स्त्री रोग

Cycle irregularity, PCOS and perimenopausal change are approached through metabolism, stress and digestion together.

  • Irregular or absent cycles
  • PCOS
  • Painful periods

Weight & Metabolism

स्थौल्य

Weight that will not move despite effort is usually a metabolism problem, not a willpower problem. We work on digestion first.

  • Stubborn weight gain
  • Thyroid imbalance
  • Constant fatigue

Immunity & Recovery

व्याधिक्षमत्व

Falling ill at every seasonal change, or never quite recovering from the last illness, is a sign of depleted Ojas.

  • Frequent colds and infections
  • Allergic rhinitis
  • Long recovery from ordinary illness

Diabetes & Metabolic Support

प्रमेह

Ayurvedic care works alongside your existing treatment — supporting diet, insulin sensitivity and complication risk.

  • Pre-diabetes
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • High cholesterol
How it worksचिकित्सा क्रम

Four steps, no surprises

The whole process is designed so that nothing about it is unclear before you pay.

1

2 minutes

Choose a time

Pick video or WhatsApp, then a slot that suits you. Payment is ₹500 — the slot is held while you check out.

2

5 minutes

Share your history

A short guided intake covers your complaint, digestion, sleep and current medication. Upload reports if you have them.

3

30 minutes

Meet Dr. Patel

He opens the call having already read your intake, so the time goes into understanding the pattern rather than form-filling.

4

Within 24 hours

Receive your care plan

A written plan of foods to favour and avoid, herbs with dosage and timing, and a daily routine. Yours to keep and download.

Free · No sign-up needed
Prakriti assessmentप्रकृति परीक्षण

Which constitution are you working with?

Fourteen questions about how you sleep, digest, react and recover. The result tells you which dosha leads your system — and which imbalance your current symptoms point to.

Take the assessment

About two minutes

If you book afterwards, your result is attached to the appointment automatically — so Dr. Patel starts the call already knowing your constitution.

वात

Vata

Air + Ether

  • Quick, creative, restless
  • Dry skin, cold hands
  • Light, broken sleep

पित्त

Pitta

Fire + Water

  • Sharp, driven, precise
  • Strong appetite, warm body
  • Prone to acidity and rashes

कफ

Kapha

Earth + Water

  • Strong build, smooth skin
  • Slow digestion, heavy sleep
Classical therapiesपञ्चकर्म चिकित्सा

Prescribed individually, never sold as a package

Every therapy below is only recommended when your constitution, season and current strength make it appropriate.

All treatments

पञ्चकर्म

Panchakarma

A staged purification programme that removes accumulated metabolic waste before rebuilding strength. Planned individually — never a fixed package.

  • Clears deep-seated ama (metabolic residue)
  • Resets digestion and appetite
7–21 days

अभ्यङ्ग

Abhyanga

Warm medicated-oil massage applied along the direction of the tissues. The foundation of Vata care and the most under-rated daily therapy.

  • Calms an overactive nervous system
  • Relieves stiffness and dryness
45–60 minutes

शिरोधारा

Shirodhara

A continuous, precisely warmed stream of oil poured across the forehead. Profoundly settling for a mind that will not switch off.

  • Reduces mental chatter and rumination
  • Eases tension headaches and migraine frequency
30–45 minutes

नस्य

Nasya

Medicated oils or powders delivered through the nasal passage — the direct route to the head, sinuses and mind.

  • Clears chronic sinus congestion
  • Relieves cervical and head heaviness
20–30 minutes

विरेचन

Virechana

Supervised therapeutic purgation to clear excess Pitta from the liver and small intestine. Preceded by days of internal oleation.

  • Settles acidity, reflux and burning sensations
  • Clears inflammatory skin conditions
5–10 days with preparation

बस्ति

Basti

Medicated enema therapy — considered the single most effective intervention for Vata disorders and chronic joint conditions.

  • Relieves chronic constipation and bloating
  • Reduces joint pain and stiffness
8–30 days

उद्वर्तन

Udvartana

Dry or semi-dry herbal powder massage worked against the direction of hair growth to mobilise stagnant Kapha and subcutaneous fat.

  • Improves metabolic rate and lymphatic drainage
  • Reduces heaviness and water retention
40–50 minutes

रसायन

Rasayana

Rejuvenation therapy prescribed after purification, or on its own during recovery — herbs and routine chosen to rebuild strength and immunity.

  • Rebuilds strength after illness or delivery
  • Improves resistance to recurring infection
1–3 months
“Most people arrive having already been told what is wrong with them. My job is usually to ask a different set of questions — about sleep, about digestion, about when the trouble actually started — and find the pattern underneath.”

Patient storiesरोगी अनुभव

In their words, not ours

Published with consent. We do not edit for enthusiasm, and we publish the slower results too.

All stories
Acidity & bloating
“I had been on antacids for four years. Dr. Patel spent thirty minutes asking about things no one had asked before — my sleep, my work hours, when I actually eat. The plan was ordinary food, nothing exotic. Six weeks in I stopped needing the tablets.”
A

Ananya R.

Pune · 4 months under care

Knee pain
“What convinced me was that he told me clearly what Ayurveda could not do for my knees, and referred me for an X-ray first. That honesty is rare. The Basti course afterwards genuinely reduced the morning stiffness.”
R

Rakesh M.

Ahmedabad · 7 months under care

Sleep & anxiety
“The written care plan is what made the difference. I had it on my phone, and it told me exactly what to eat and when to sleep. I did not have to remember anything from the call.”
F

Farida S.

Mumbai · 3 months under care

PCOS support (spouse)
“We booked for my wife and joined the call together. He worked with her endocrinologist's reports rather than dismissing them. Cycles became regular over about five months.”
V

Vikram T.

Bengaluru · 6 months under care

Eczema
“Progress was slower than I hoped and he said upfront it would be. But it held — the flare-ups have not come back through two winters now.”
M

Meera K.

Surat · 11 months under care

Recurring sinusitis
“Booking took two minutes and the Meet link was in my inbox before I closed the tab. For ₹500 I expected a rushed call. It ran forty minutes.”
D

Dev P.

Delhi · 2 months under care

Ritucharya · seasonal routine

शरद ऋतु

Autumn

Mid-September to mid-November

Pitta accumulated through the monsoon now surfaces — this is when acidity, rashes and irritability peak. It is the classical season for Virechana.

Favour

  • Bitter greens
  • Ghee in moderation
  • Amla
  • Moonlight and cool air

Reduce

  • Fermented foods
  • Excess salt
  • Fried food
  • Late nights

The questions we are asked most

If something is still unclear, ask before paying — not after.

Start with one honest conversation

Thirty minutes, ₹500, and a written plan at the end of it. If Ayurveda is not the right route for your condition, Dr. Patel will tell you that too.
