Consultations
How does an online Ayurveda consultation work?
-Your consultation begins with a detailed intake of your concerns, lifestyle, sleep, digestion, emotions and medical history. Dr. Meenakshi reviews your information in advance so the session can focus on assessment and personalized guidance. You receive a clear plan outlining diet, habits, herbs (if required) and follow-up steps.
What do I need to prepare before my consultation?
- Arrive with a quiet space, good lighting and a list of your primary concerns. If you have recent bloodwork or medical reports, keep them accessible. No special preparation is required.
How quickly will I notice results?
- This varies by condition. Many clients notice meaningful improvements within two to four weeks when they follow the plan consistently. Chronic or long-standing issues may require a longer timeline.
Are online consultations as effective as in-person visits?
- Yes. Assessment in Ayurveda is based on symptoms, patterns, lifestyle and history rather than machines or physical procedures. For treatment plans, online sessions provide the same clarity and effectiveness.
Do you work with children or teenagers?
- Yes. Guidance for children is gentle, safe and adapted to age, body type and symptoms. Ayurveda is widely used for digestive issues, immunity, skin conditions, concentration and sleep concerns in children.
What makes your Ayurveda approach different?
- The focus is clinical, modern and practical. You receive a treatment plan that fits your real life rather than strict or unrealistic routines. The goal is improvement you can feel, not textbook perfection.
Are herbs or medicines mandatory?
- Not always. Many clients improve through lifestyle corrections alone. Herbs are recommended only when they are genuinely needed and safe for your condition.
Is Ayurveda safe to combine with my current medications?
- Yes. Your plan is created with your medical background in mind. If an herb or treatment could interact with a medication, it will not be recommended.
Do you offer Panchakarma or detox therapies?
- These therapies are provided only after a consultation and only when considered genuinely necessary. Walk-ins are not accepted because Panchakarma must be medically assessed and supervised.
Courses & Learning
Are your Ayurveda courses suitable for beginners?
- Yes. Each course begins with foundations and moves toward deeper understanding. No prior experience is required.
Do your courses include certificates?
- Yes. Certificates are provided upon successful completion of the course.
Are classes live or pre-recorded?
- This depends on the course. Some are self-paced; others include live sessions and instructor interaction.
Clinic Policies
Do you accept walk-in therapy requests?
- No. All therapies are provided only after an assessment. This ensures safety, proper diagnosis and personalized treatment.
Can I reschedule or cancel my appointment?
- Yes, appointments can be rescheduled with advance notice. Last-minute cancellations may incur a fee.
Do you provide emergency medical care?
- No. Ayurveda is not a substitute for urgent medical attention. Please contact emergency services if you experience severe or acute symptoms.
Logistics & Payment
How do I pay for consultations or courses?
Payments are made online through secure checkout. All international pricing is processed in USD (US Dollars). You will receive a confirmation email immediately after booking..
Can I consult from outside India?
Yes. Dr. Meenakshi works with clients worldwide. When you book your session, the calendar automatically converts the available times into your local time zone.
