Weight Management

Beyond Calories: Restore Your Metabolic Fire (Agni)

Weight Loss (Sthaulya)

The Ayurvedic Perspective: Many patients eat very little yet continue to gain weight. In the Charaka Samhita, this condition is often
attributed to Meda Dhatvagni Mandya (slow fat metabolism).

When your internal fire is weak, the food you eat is not converted into energy; instead, it settles as Ama (metabolic toxins). These
toxins stick to your body s channels (Srotas), creating a blockage. This blockage disrupts the movement of Vata (air), which fans
the digestive fire in the stomach, making you feel constantly hungry, even though your tissues are effectively starving and
accumulating fat.

Healing Logic

Imagine a fireplace with damp wood. No matter how much fire starter you use, the wood creates smoke (Ama) rather than heat. Starving yourself (dieting) only adds less wood; it doesn t dry the wood or fix the fire.

Our Approach

We focus on Lekhana (scraping) therapies to clear the blockages and reignite your
metabolic fire.

Deep Detox: We use specific treatments like Udvartana (therapeutic dry powder
massage) to liquefy heavy, subcutaneous fat and stimulate sluggish circulation.

Correction: Herbal formulations to digest the Ama (toxins) and unclog the
channels.

Step 1: Book an Online Consultation to analyse your body type ( Kapha Vata
dominance).

Step 2: Receive a personalised diet plan (Aahar) and lifestyle guide (Vihar).

Step 3: Visit the clinic for targeted therapies like Panchakarma to physically
remove deep seated toxins.

Weight Gain (Karshya)

Being underweight is not merely a lack of fat; it is often a condition of Dhatu Kshaya (depletion of tissues). According to Sushruta, this occurs when Vata Dosha is aggravated, creating an internal environment of excessive dryness and hyperactivity.In this state, your metabolic fire is often Tikshna (sharp and erratic). It burns through nutrition so rapidly that the essence of food fails to nourish the Mamsa Dhatu (muscle tissue) or Meda Dhatu (adipose tissue).
