A clinic for
Ayurvedic medicine.

A doctor-led Ayurvedic clinic in Hyderabad. Nāḍī parīkṣā at the start. A written prescription and diet plan at the end. Classical Panchakarma in the middle, when the condition calls for it.

§ 01 · About

A doctor-led clinic. Three commitments.

A doctor-led Ayurvedic clinic in Addagutta, Kukatpally — for everything from a single follow-up consultation to a multi-week Panchakarma course. Our work rests on three things we do not negotiate.

  1. i.

    Nāḍī Parīkṣā and a careful conversation.

    Every patient is evaluated through pulse reading, a structured history, and contemporary investigations where relevant — so the treatment plan is built around the person, not the diagnosis alone.

  2. ii.

    A full Ayurvedic pharmacy on site.

    Our pharmacy stocks the full range of classical Ayurvedic medicines — kaṣāyam, cūrṇam, guṭikā, taila, ghṛta, leha, āsava-ariṣṭa, and rasa formulations. Walk-ins are welcome — bring a prescription from any registered Ayurvedic physician, or ask for what you need.

  3. iii.

    End-to-end accountability.

    From the first consultation through every Panchakarma session, the doctor's plan, the therapist's protocol, and the dispensed medicines are part of one continuous record. Reminders, follow-ups, and post-therapy review are part of every package.

Note — If your concern isn't listed, please write or call. Many conditions respond well to Ayurvedic care when the underlying doṣa imbalance is correctly identified.

§ 03 · Method

How a case is run.

Every consultation begins at the pulse and ends with a written plan you can act on. Panchakarma, when indicated, is staged in three classical phases. Diet and lifestyle are not afterthoughts — they are part of every prescription.

  1. 01

    Nāḍī Parīkṣā & history

    The consultation opens at the pulse. Combined with a structured history, current complaints, and prior investigations, it sets the prakṛti (constitution) and vikṛti (current imbalance) of the case.

    Typically — 45 min

  2. 02

    Diagnosis · two lenses

    Each case is recorded in both Ayurvedic terms (doṣa involvement, samprāpti) and modern clinical terms — so the plan stays coordinated with any other physician you are seeing.

    Recorded — T+0

  3. 03

    Treatment in phases

    Panchakarma and longer plans are staged: pūrvakarma (preparation), pradhānakarma (main procedure), paścātkarma (rejuvenation & diet). Each phase has its own protocol, medicines, and pace.

    Course — 5 / 14 / 21 d

  4. 04

    Diet & lifestyle

    No prescription is complete without dietary direction. Every visit ends with a written plan calibrated to your prakṛti — what to eat, what to avoid, daily routine (dinacharya), seasonal regimen (ṛtucharya).

    Delivered — in writing

  5. 05

    Records & reminders

    Every visit, every report, every dispensed medicine is held against your record. WhatsApp reminders for appointments, follow-ups, and refills. By visit three the doctor already knows your trajectory — you don't have to re-explain.

    Ongoing — visit-to-visit

A two-minute self-assessment

Which way does your constitution lean?

In Ayurveda, your prakṛti — the balance of vāta, pitta and kapha you were born with — shapes how you digest, sleep, think, and fall ill. Answer twelve honest questions for a first reading of yours.

Take the prakṛti self-test

A simplified guide, not a diagnosis. A true reading is made by the physician through nāḍī parīkṣā.

Before consulting Dr. Darshana Madam, I believed in the effectiveness of Nadi Pariksha, but I wasn't sure it could be this accurate. During my consultation, I didn't mention any of my health concerns. After checking my pulse, she identified that my Blood Pressure was fluctuating. I initially thought madam might simply say it was either high or low, as that is what people generally assume 😊. However, she specifically pointed out that it was fluctuating, which is exactly what I had been experiencing for the past few months. The fact that she could identify this so precisely through Nadi Pariksha was truly impressive ✨ What impressed me even more was that she confidently said I was not under any mental stress. Since stress is quite common these days, I assumed she might naturally conclude that I was stressed 😊. Instead, she clearly stated that I was not experiencing mental strain, which was absolutely true 👍. That was the moment I developed complete confidence in her Nadi Pariksha skills and her knowledge as a Nadi Vaidya. Based on my personal experience, I feel that anyone seeking guidance for their health concerns can consult Dr. Darshana Madam with confidence and trust 🙏.
★★★★★
As I deeply believe in Ayurveda and wished for a healthy, divine child, meeting Dr. Darshana Ma'am during my pregnancy felt like a blessing🙏💖 Her pulse diagnosis was truly amazing without us saying anything, she identified that there were two heartbeats💓. She also identified that I had poor absorption & explained how it could affect baby's nutrition and addressed it with right medicine. Her knowledge, care, and attention to detail are exceptional. She patiently explained required tests, guided me with a healthy pregnancy diet, and prescribed Ayurvedic medicines to naturally support both me and baby✨ What I loved the most is they also provide Garbh Sanskar program, which beautifully combines Ayurveda, positivity, and spiritual nurturing during pregnancy💞 🌷✨ I feel truly blessed to have consulted Dr. Darshana Ma'am early in my pregnancy. I wholeheartedly recommend her to every mom-to-be for a healthy, happy, and beautiful pregnancy journey💖💖

§ 08 · Questions

Frequently asked.

The questions patients most often ask before their first visit. If yours isn't here, write or call — we'll answer the same day.

How long does a Panchakarma course last?

Anywhere from 5 days for a focused cleanse to 21–28 days for a complete Śodhana–Rasāyana programme. Your doctor will recommend a duration after the initial consultation, based on your constitution and the condition being treated.

Do I need to stay in or be admitted for Panchakarma?

No. All our Panchakarma is outpatient — patients come for daily sessions and return home. Some procedures (e.g. Vamana) involve a longer in-clinic day; the doctor will brief you in advance.

Are your medicines safe alongside my regular medication?

In most cases, yes. Bring all your current prescriptions to the first visit; the doctor will review for interactions and design the plan accordingly. We also coordinate with your existing physicians when needed.

Is Ayurveda safe in pregnancy?

Many supportive Ayurvedic therapies are safe and beneficial during pregnancy; some procedures (cleansing therapies, certain medicines) are contraindicated. Please mention your pregnancy at booking so the doctor can plan appropriately.

Do you treat children?

Yes. We see children for digestive complaints, skin conditions, recurrent infections, and developmental concerns. Several therapies have child-friendly variants — SABS Child, SSPS Child, Mātra Basti Child.

Do you accept walk-ins?

Yes for follow-ups and reviews. New consultations are best with an appointment so we can give you the full time you need.

Are bills generated for insurance / reimbursement?

Yes — printed receipts and itemised invoices are available on request for both consultations and Panchakarma packages.

Where is the clinic located in Hyderabad?

Darshana Ayurveda is at Flat No. 201, Above AXIS Bank, Addagutta, Kukatpally, Hyderabad 500090. Call +91 85220 58811 for directions or to book.
