Summary/services offered:
Ayurvedic and Naturopathic medicine allows for the treatment of a multitude of conditions and ailments. At the Institute, we offer individualized treatment with diet and lifestyle recommendations according to one’s dosha (body constitution), panchakarma, acupuncture, homeopathy and more.

What drew you to this profession?
Dr. Neeru: As a child, I was always curious to know about the human body and its functions and am passionate about helping others. This profession offered me the opportunity to incorporate both.

Dr. Neha: As I was going through figuring my own health out, I turned to Ayurvedic and Naturopathic physicians. Getting to the root cause helped me get in better health, and I was drawn to learn more and provide the same care and opportunities for others.

How does your work differ from others in your profession? 
Our practice is a unique combination of Ayurvedic, Chinese and Naturopathic medicine. In Ayurveda, health represents a balance of body, mind and spirit. Imbalances cause illness and can be detected before manifestation. By combining the unique therapies of Ayurveda with acupuncture and naturopathy, we create an individualized treatment program to achieve the optimum healing benefits, especially in chronic conditions.

What should someone expect from working with you?
Our aim is to get to the root cause of the condition(s) that a client is going through. We ask detailed questions to get a whole picture of health, diet, lifestyle and environment—as they all play an important role. We educate the client throughout the whole process so that they are aware of what is happening in their body and a possibility of why. With that understanding, they understand what needs to be done, then they will stick to the treatment recommendations more closely. We believe in having a supporting and guiding role for a client and strive for that bond. We strive for our patients to know just how resilient and self-healing their bodies are and can grow to be.

What changes do you have planned for 2023?
We are opening a new office location in Madison and are currently planning one for New York City. We are excited to be able to increase access to more individuals on their journey of optimal health. We are also incorporating more pain management modalities as well as adding new Ayurvedic therapies into our practice.

What is most important for Natural Awakenings’ readers to know?
We offer a patient-centered personalized health plan and focus on our patient’s overall health instead of on just the symptoms. Healing takes place when the body is brought back into balance; a body out of balance promotes disease. Bringing the body back into balance includes an individual customized plan of diet, supplements and lifestyle changes. We aim at educating and empowering clients toward their optimal health.
