Online Ayurvedic
Consultations
Discover your unique constitution and receive personalized guidance on food, daily habits and, when appropriate, herbs. Ayurveda looks at the whole person and the patterns behind how you feel, not one concern in isolation.
Ayurveda is a complementary approach. It works alongside your medical care, not in place of it.

Prakruti & Vikruti
Understanding these two concepts is essential for effective Ayurvedic treatment
Prakruti (Constitution)
Your Prakruti is your unique constitution determined at the time of conception. In Sanskrit, Prakruti means "nature" or "first creation." This basic constitution is fixed throughout your lifetime and explains the subtle differences between individuals.
Vikruti (Current State)
Your Vikruti is the current state of your doshas, influenced by food, environment, climate, season, age, emotions, and lifestyle. Ayurveda recommends adjusting your daily routine based on these changing factors to maintain balance.
Why Choose Ayurvedic Consultations?
Ayurveda targets the root cause that is creating health problems, rather than just suppressing symptoms. This holistic healing system has been helping millions of people for thousands of years.
An Ayurvedic doctor believes that your physical health and wellness are dependent upon the balance in your body, mind, and spirit.
With any client, I provide a personalized plan because there is no concept of one-size-fits-all solutions in Ayurveda.
Factors Considered in Your Assessment
- Age As we age, Vata naturally increases and can push other doshas out of balance
- Season Each season has unique influences—Vata in winter, Pitta in summer, Kapha in spring
- Climate Your geographic location affects how treatments should be adjusted
- Toxin Level The accumulation of toxins determines the intensity of purification needed
- Lifestyle Your daily habits, stress levels, and responsibilities

Whatever brings you here, whether it’s your skin, digestion, sleep, energy or a health concern you’d like to look at differently, tell me about it. Ayurveda looks at the whole person, so I’ll explain how I see your concerns through an Ayurvedic perspective and which option fits you best.
It’s a conversation, not a consultation, so I won’t give personal recommendations. No pressure, no obligation.
