Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about Ayurveda, Panchakarma and finding an Ayurvedic doctor.

What is Ayurveda?

Ayurveda, from the Sanskrit Ayur (life) and Veda (knowledge), is India’s traditional system of medicine. It aims to prevent disease and restore health by balancing the body, mind and spirit through diet, daily routine, herbal medicines, Panchakarma therapies, yoga and meditation.

What are the three Doshas in Ayurveda?

The three Doshas are Vata (air and space, governing movement), Pitta (fire and water, governing digestion and metabolism) and Kapha (earth and water, governing structure and stability). Health is understood as a balance of the three.

What is Prakriti in Ayurveda?

Prakriti is your individual body–mind constitution — the unique proportion of Vata, Pitta and Kapha you are born with. A qualified Vaidya assesses Prakriti, often with Nadi Pariksha (pulse diagnosis), to personalise diet, lifestyle and treatment.

What is Panchakarma and how long does it take?

Panchakarma is Ayurveda’s classical five-action purification programme: Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya and Raktamokshana. A complete course usually runs 7 to 21 days, including preparatory oleation (Snehana) and sudation (Swedana), and is tailored by the physician to your Prakriti and condition.

What is Shirodhara and what is it used for?

Shirodhara is a therapy in which a continuous stream of warm medicated oil or liquid is poured over the forehead. It is traditionally used to support relaxation, sleep and stress management, and is offered at Panchakarma clinics across Dombivli, Kalyan and Thane.

What is Dinacharya?

Dinacharya is the Ayurvedic daily routine — waking early, oral hygiene, self-massage (Abhyanga), exercise or yoga, regular meal times and consistent sleep — designed to keep the Doshas in balance. Ritucharya adapts this routine to the seasons.

Yes. Through the Online Ayurveda Mission Worldwide, patients anywhere can request a consultation by phone or WhatsApp on +91 92231 72251 and be guided to a qualified Ayurvedic physician.

What is the difference between Ayurveda and modern medicine?

Ayurveda looks for the root cause of imbalance and treats the whole person with diet, lifestyle, herbs and therapies, while modern medicine focuses on diagnosing and treating specific diseases. The two can be complementary; always inform both your doctors about all treatments you take.
