What Our Patients Say

"I had Grade III knee osteoarthritis. Two orthopaedic surgeons in Pune recommended knee replacement. I was 56 and terrified. A friend referred me to Dr. Irshad at Karmanya. After 21 days of Janu Basti and internal herbal medicines, my pain dropped from a 9/10 to a 3/10. After 3 months of the full protocol, I can walk 2km without stopping. I have avoided surgery completely. The physician is thorough, honest about expectations, and genuinely invested in your outcome."

"I am an IT professional working out of Hinjawadi. The shooting pain from my lower back down to my left foot had become unbearable — I couldn't sit at my desk for more than 20 minutes. My neurosurgeon was recommending discectomy. I came to Karmanya expecting a massage. Instead, I got a full clinical assessment, Nadi Pariksha, MRI review, and a structured 21-day Kati Basti + Basti protocol. I was sceptical. By day 10, the shooting pain had reduced 60%. By day 21, I was back to full working hours. 3 months on, no recurrence. This is a real medical centre."

"I had been on OCPs for 4 years for PCOD. My gynaecologist wanted to put me on Metformin next. I wanted to try something that addressed the cause, not just suppressed symptoms. Dr. Tejasvi at Karmanya did a thorough assessment — she explained how my insulin resistance and Kapha imbalance were causing the PCOD. After 2 months of treatment and strict dietary changes, my cycles regularised completely for the first time in 6 years. My follow-up ultrasound showed significant reduction in cyst count. I feel like myself again."

"8 years of chronic plaque psoriasis. I had tried topical steroids, UV therapy, and even a biologic injection. All gave temporary relief with rebound flares. At Karmanya, Dr. Irshad did a Virechana (therapeutic purgation) protocol followed by internal blood-purifying herbs and a strict diet. Within 6 weeks, the plaques on my elbows and knees had reduced by 80%. The approach here is fundamentally different — they are treating your entire metabolic health, not just the skin patches. Highly recommend for anyone with chronic skin conditions who has exhausted conventional options."

"I had been suffering from cervical spondylosis for 3 years — neck stiffness every morning, numbness in my right arm, and constant headaches. Physiotherapy gave some temporary relief but no lasting improvement. At Karmanya, the treatment involved Griva Basti (warm oil over the cervical spine) and Nasya therapy for 14 days, combined with Ashwagandha and Mahanarayana Taila internally. The morning stiffness disappeared after week 1. The arm numbness resolved by week 3. Now, 4 months later, I have had no recurrence. The clinic is clean, professional, and the physicians explain every step of the treatment."

"10 years of IBS. I had tried every gastroenterologist in Pune. Colonoscopy was normal but I had daily bloating, irregular bowel habits, and chronic fatigue. Dr. Irshad's assessment was eye-opening — he explained how my Agni (digestive fire) was fundamentally disturbed and that the toxins (Ama) were causing systemic inflammation. After a full Panchakarma course — Virechana followed by Basti — and 90 days of internal herbs and dietary overhaul, my bowel habits are normal for the first time in a decade. The fatigue has largely lifted. Unlike other clinical centres, Karmanya focuses on root-cause assessment."

"I had been on Alprazolam for 2 years for anxiety and insomnia. I hated being dependent on it. At Karmanya, Dr. Irshad prescribed a 7-session Shirodhara course with Ksheerabala oil, combined with Brahmi Rasayana. By session 3, I was sleeping 6–7 hours uninterrupted for the first time in years. By session 7, my anxiety levels had dropped significantly. I was able to taper off the Alprazolam under my psychiatrist's supervision over the next 2 months. The therapy is completely non-habit-forming. I feel mentally clearer than I have in years."
