I continue to get their timely support and care for a multitude of issues and as my primary care. They help you to getting your body to support itself through a healthy lifestyle instead of being hooked on to medicines endlessly. The herbal supplements given have absolutely no side effects and aid the body to cope with symptoms and to position itself for self sustenance in the long term. Not just myself, but many of my friends have reaped the benefits from going to Dr Shanbhag and his team. I’m just glad we live in a place with access to such a great naturopathic team.

I was suffering from loss of body weight and extreme dry skin as well as low energy and a rash all over my body. Through the analysis of my condition the practitioners at Natural Medicine & Ayurveda were able to diagnose my imbalance and provide me with a plan to address both my physical as well as my holistic concerns. I implemented the program, supplements, and meditation taught to me and was able to reverse the condition within 2 months. This practice is amazing, i am still following Natural Medicine & Ayurvedas process as it not only healed me but gave me renewed vitality. Thank you Dr. Shanbhag and team!

Dr Shanbag and Gayathri Shanbag are awesome ! I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic, had a hip to knee pain on one side, occasional swelling of one of my ankles . I went to Dr Shanbag to address those and also get help to switch to a healthier lifestyle. The consultations and esp food recommendations/recipes from Gayathri were amazing ! They were healthy and tasty too ! Both me and my husband started noticing differences in the way our bodies felt.Dr Shanbag then recommended taking a 7-day DIY detox program (Panchakarma). There was step by step guidance provided along the way and was easy to follow. My body felt lighter and I was able to focus more. By the end of the week, I had lost more than 4 pounds. Also I visibly noticed a difference in my skin tone and eyes. Believe it or not I it was also noticed by colleagues on video calls by the end of the week !So grateful to Dr Shanbag and his team for all the support ! Looking forward to working with them to help attain my health goals !

Ive had Sciatica for 2 years restricting an active lifestyle. I consulted Dr.Shanbhag in August 2020. I received appropriate supplements, diet advice, stretching recommendations. After 6-7 months in to the treatment, Im now able to lead a more active lifestyle, sleep better and overall an increased energy levels. Im glad the Natural supplements have improved my health without any side effects (unlike over the counter pain killers). I thank Dr. Shanbhag and his team for the expert advise and friendly experience.

After having dry skin & dermatitis issues for over a year, trying all sorts of creams and doc recommended medicines which only provided temporary relief, my skin is back to its clear glowing self within a few weeks of seeing Dr.Shanbag! What a dramatic change when you actually start to take care of yourself holistically. Thank you to the team, esp. the nutritionist whose tips I followed rigorously to achieve optimal results! Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to improve their health the natural way , its FSA money well spent.

I can’t believe how light I feel, clear of mind, and happy. If you are looking for a medically sound, “friend to your body” approach for a balanced detoxification and weight loss, look up Natural Medicine & Ayurveda, San Jose, CA. It was so complete, understandable, and safe! No hidden costs. All herbs, recipes, and a booklet were mailed in packages to my front door so I could do a thorough detox quietly and privately in my own home. My group’s questions were answered by ZOOM meetings where I learned from all their experiences and shared mine. I give it four stars and two thumbs up. Plus, my clothes fit now!

My experience with Natural Medicine & Ayurveda Clinic leaves me quite inspired, and I am glad to write a review. I recently had a burn injury which unnecessarily got coupled with poor gut health giving rise to additional symptoms. Dr. Shanbhags consistent ayurvedic treatment and Gayathris key diet consultation inputs have together helped me get back on track to good health!Dr. Shanbhag, along with him having prescribed me the right herbal treatment, I have experienced him to be an extremely good counselor, which has positively reinforced my healing process. Their approach of balancing the herbal supplements with a detailed, customized diet plan (nutritious & balanced, yet taste-rich), I think, makes it holistic and quite unique (Of course, needless to say, has to be supplemented with a little bit of a discipline on our part to regularly adhere to the dietary/exercise recommendations, to speed-up the recovery :) ).Additionally, outside of the personal consultation times, Gayathri has always been there to answer the most significant to the minutest of my questions. Impressively, each time she takes her time to respond in detail. If she is preoccupied with another person at that moment, I have always found her to get back later.Thank you Dr. Shanbhag, Gayathri and the other key members. I will be extremely glad to recommend your clinic to my friends and family!

I had fever for almost 2 months. I started with Allopathy and there was reduction in fever, but it did not go away completely. It was also accompanied by some muscle cramps and joint pain. I was advised by family to try out Ayurvedic medicine in my treatment. I came across Dr.Shanbag’s clinic through Google, and I had a great experience here. Dr.Shanbag had a very detailed session with me to understand my history and assessed me to provide personalized treatment plan. He also advised on lifestyle changes that included Yoga, meditation, and other exercise activities. Gayathri provided detailed diet consultation session. The diet suggestions were easy to incorporate in our daily schedule. It was helpful to understand what foods to avoid to support my treatment. I stopped Allopathy from the time I started Ayurvedic medicine. Along with the medicines from Dr.Shanbag and and the diet advise from Gayathri, within about two weeks, my fever, muscle pain and joint pain is gone. I highly recommend Dr.Shanbag, Gayathri, and their natural medicine.

As a graduate of National Holistic Institute of Massage Therapy I was able to hear Dr. Shanbhag speak about the clinic. I was amazed by what a well rounded approach he and his team have to helping patients heal from whatever issues they have. Such a better approach than most Western medicine Doctors give. Definitely would recommend to anyone who is interested in healing from their medical issue and not just have it covered up! You have a whole team there to support your healing journey.

Came to the clinic due to regular medical docs not able to help with my hair fall. Learnt from Dr.Shanbag it is related to my hypothyroidism.The daily herbs I was put on did reduce hair fall considerably within a month. And thyroid symptoms improved so I was able to reduce my medication dosage slightly.But I was asked to do the 7 day at home detox a month and a half after starting the supplements, which turned out to be too stressful for my body and backfired. It reset my thyroid to a really bad state and as of 5 months post detox, my thyroid and metabolism still hasnt returned to the feel better levels it was at prior to starting the detox. As a result, am currently on a higher thyroid medication dosage than I was on even prior to coming to the clinic. Continuing with herb supplements for the time being though.

I did a one week DIY panchkarma detox at home as recommended by Dr. Shanbagh. He was very helpful throughout the process explaining everything in detail and answering all questions on zoom calls. The detox was completely natural - no chemicals and we didnt have to starve at all. I lost about 4 pounds in just 1 week. I love the self care ritual that he explained for mornings that Im excited to continue doing even after my panchkarma. Thank you, Dr. Shanbagh for a healty way of detoxing.

I have been developed so many red scars all over my body, I went to different dermatologists but they could not find any certain root cause neither they could help to soothe my symptoms. Finally, I decided to stop all my medications and seek Ayurvedic treatment, I found Dr. Shanbagh on google and made an appointment around three months back. Dr. Shanbagh diagnosed the root cause of my problem and gave me some natural medicines. He also recommended me to do a Whole-body Natural detox generally called Panch Karma. In the very first month of medication, I felt relief in itching and My red flares started turning into dark brown patches like a dead leaf, thenIn December Month, I started doing Panch karma at my home. It is a one week process and Dr. Shanbagh gives very clear instructions to follow the steps. I reduced around 8 pounds of my weight and also it helped to detoxify my body.The best part of this natural body detox is that we do not have to starve or do anything extreme just a few simple steps and consistency in the schedule will do the things.The only thing which I felt is that Detox program is a little overpriced.I highly recommend to Natural Medicine & Ayurveda, Clinic, Academy.

Im currently under treatment with Dr. Shanbagh for lifestyle-related and hormonal issues. One month into my treatment, he recommended that I do the Do It Yourself Detox program. I was very skeptical about doing panchakarma at home all by myself. But I was amazed by how easy the program was to follow by oneself at home and the great results that it brought to my overall wellness. I feel lighter, more active, and much more aware. I definitely recommend the detox program.

I had some stomach related problems as well as weight issues, but from the day I visited Dr. Shanbagh clinic I am improving in my overall health, his medicines are best. During this situation where there is Shelter at Place, Dr. Shanbagh recommend me to do Do-It-Youself-Detoxification at home and I I would highly recommend this technique was so simple and convenient. After I did At Home Detoxification I can feel the difference in my health and I lost some pounds I feel lighter body and clear stomach.

I had digestive issues, no energy, and joint pains. I started seen Dr. Shanbhag a month ago. He started me with some natural medicines and ayurvedic recipes. Then he recommended Pancha-Karma and nutrition (Whole body natural detox, weight Loss and rejuvenation). I highly recommend it. It is easy to follow, Dr. Shanbhag gives you clear instructions and answers any questions you may have via online workshops. He provides you with everything you need. You don’t need to take time off, you don’t starve, and is not time consuming.In just a week, I lost 11 lbs, no more joint pain, digestive issues have improve, feel energized, and no more joint pains.Thank you Dr. Shanbhag and Gayathri for your support and guidance.

I highly recommend the Dr. Shanbhags for treating me with natural medicine and no side effects. 4 weeks back I was skeptical about taking steroid for my tendinitis issue( for past 3 yrs) that flared up and decided to try Ayurveda. I did a video call and was given a clear diet plan, medicine and lifestyle changes that helped me show progress in so less a time. The pain is gone, range of motion improved with more energy and good sleep. I am looking forward to continue treatment for further improvement. Thank you so much Dr. Shanbhag and Gayathri.

A few months ago our 5 yr old daughter was having eczema problems with dry skin on the face especially around the eyes and other parts of the body. We had gone to the dermatologist a couple of times and she suggested starting with mild steroids (1%) which initially helped a little but the eczema always came back. Then it was time to start the stronger steroids and we didnt want our daughter to use steroids and so started looking for alternatives. That is when we heard about Dr. Shanbag and the Natural Medicine & Ayurveda Clinic. We were able to meet with Dr. Shanbag (this was just before the shelter in place started) and he examined our daughter and then very patiently explained to us the treatment plan he was proposing for our daughter. He asked us to turn into detectives (which we gladly did) by monitoring what she ate and which food triggered the redness on her face and body. He said that while he would prescribe some natural medicines and cream, our goal was to monitor her diet as the medicines were only till she got better. After the first week, we saw that the problem had stopped getting worse and then a slow but steady improvement after that. Within a couple of months all the redness, the dry skin had gone away. There was still some white marks on the face but the rest of the body had completely healed. We are grateful to God that he led us to Dr. Shanbag. As parents, especially to a small child, we are so thankful that Dr. Shanbag was able to treat and cure our daughter without any steroids and completely through natural methods. We would highly recommend Dr. Shanbag and the Natural Medicine & Ayurveda Clinic.

My Ayurveda Class on Sat. Oct. 13 2018 was amazing! Dr. Shanbhags deep knowledge and wisdom of describing both how to understand what Ayurveda is for the beginner and even deeper learning for those who already have intermediate knowledge was enlightening. His sense of humor kept the class exciting and had me anticipating more amazing knowledge. I scheduled a consultation and a massage as Id like to learn more and personalize my health. Ive had classmates who rave about how great their massage was and how their health has improved after their treatments at this magnificent Clinic!

I would highly recommend the Do-it-yourself Detox, Weight Loss & Rejuvenation to everyone out there. Its easy to follow. Dr. Shanbhag gives a lot of support and clear instructions. The instructions are given by way of online workshop and detailed manual. The supplements, oils, herbs and the manual are shipped in advance so that you can plan your detox ahead of time. All the recipes are demonstrated over video call.I had a chronic bloating and back problem. With regular exercise and detox and herbs, i would say the progress is very good. Dr. Shanbhag is very good at diagnosing your health problems.I would highly recommend Gayathris diet consultation aswell. She is very resourceful and informative. I like the fact that none of the diet changes are like those crash diets which are not sustainable.

Dr. Shanbhag and his team do great job! I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in January. After taking one month of chemical medicine, I did not see any difference at all. Luckily, a colleague of my husband told about Natural Medicine and Ayurveda clinic. After first consultation and taking medicines, I noticed noticeable difference in my health. Herbal medicines, diet and treatment ( massage) worked and work great. My overall health is GREAT now. Thanks to Dr. Shanbhag and his team.

Natural and alternative medicine has been something that I go to for most of my adult life whenever I feel a need. Recently, I had the pleasure to learn more about Ayurvedic Medicine through a friend who offered a workshop in this field and also had worked with Dr. Shanbhag as an intern. After her recommendation, I wanted to know more and really try this ancient science of natural healing so I came to the clinic for the Integrated Comprehensive Health & Wellness Program they offer.It has been a very positive experience from the moment of calling to get the appointment to follow-ups and their overall care.The services are very personalized and the whole team works in sync with you. I felt really welcomed into the clinic/spa and every professional gives their very best to provide you with knowledgeable advice and care.When I visited the clinic, my major issues were muscle pain (joints and shoulder), fatigue & low energy (specially in the afternoon), lazy digestive system and skin dryness. Within three weeks with following their advice and care I felt 80% better: muscle pain almost completely gone, have energy and mental focus throughout the day and after 8pm I dont feel exhausted, my elimination became regular and easier and skin is naturally hydrated and smooth. All in all, I feel grounded, present, stronger and healthier. I really like to see my whole-self back and I know that it is the combination of supplements/herbs, new habits, diet awareness and lots of body work (muscular-skeletal balance, drainage massage sessions), of course I had to do my part, but Natural Medicine & Ayurveda team has been the ones to guide and support me.I highly recommend Natural Medicine & Ayurveda Clinic Academy & Wellness Spa, this is definitely a place for healing and rejuvenation.

I started seeing Dr Shanbagh exactly one year ago. After his thorough assessment, he and his team developed a holistic, specialized program for me including supplements, exercise, diet and panchakarma. My symptoms have improved and stabilized during the last few months. I have increased energy and better mental clarity. I am grateful for his expertise, genuine care by his team, especially Gaya. I would highly recommend Dr Vivek Shanbagh and his team.

Dr. Vivek and Gayatri Shanbhag have a wonderful team at Natural Medicine & Ayurveda where most of the stress related problems is cured just by there kind and compassionate treatment.I had been suffering from insomnia right from childhood days and never had a slightest idea that most of the problems in my life was because of that.At the age of 40 years, when I was under high stress due to work and personal issues, I by chance happened to visit the clinic just in the hope of receiving body massage which could reduce the stress level in my mind and body, but never had a slightest idea of the Ayurvedic treatment process.Though I had earlier been treated for clinical depression, I tried to hide that from them, but when Dr. Shanbag did pulse analysis on me, I guess he could easily make out all that in 5 min. There step by step approach of analyzing my past and current problem of insomnia and high stress level, and then prescribing me the required ayurvedic medicine helped in easily inducing sleep in the night within 1 week. And then Dr. Gayatri Shanbhag did a through analysis of my current daily routine and based on my body nature, prescribed me the best diet plan and daily routine of having food and sleep at correct time.Now after about within 1 year of treatment, I have been about 80% cured. I get a lot better deep sleep during night and the dullness and sleep during day time has reduced to a grate extent.Thank you a lot for treating me with such kind heartedness and all the patients who come to you for treatment. My life has changed a lot after getting treated from your team. And last but not the least, the body massage from Eliana is amazing. Its like some sort of magic in here hands. It instantly reduces a lot of stress in the body and she treats us with very kind heartedness. Thank you all for all the great work that you people have been doing and treating so many people who come to you with loot of health problems. I still feel like writing a lot about you, but that would still be very less of the work that you people have been dong.Thank you a lot for changing my life. Now its a totally new life for me.

I recently completed a 7 day pancha karma and I am so happy I did! The initial pulse consultation with Dr. Shanbhag allowed me to address long term issues I’ve been having from allergies, acne, menstrual problems, weight gain, a liver in need of cleansing, and excess candida. He also picked up on some trauma on my pulse, which I’m glad he did, because I was able to address this deeper psychological/emotional issue before my 7 day detox/ pancha karma started. Over the 7 days I lost 9 lbs, and by Monday the following week my gut was feeling so light and fresh. An unfamiliar feeling for me! I also just had my first menstrual cycle since the treatment (+starting herbal supplements) and it was pain free and easy, also something unheard of for me. Also, the power of touch is HUGE! I had the pleasure of receiving hands on treatment from Ileana Monday through Friday. She does amazing trigger point release therapy, aromatherapy, abdominal massage, and can also integrate reiki energy healing into your treatment, with your consent. My skin was so soft and relaxed by day 5, it hardly felt like my own. My favorite part of the treatment was definitely the shirodhara, I’ve never in my life felt so relaxed. This traditional approach to pancha karma is an amazing way to reset your whole system. Also, the kitchari and clear veggie soup was so delicious. I could not recommend getting a Pancha Karma here enough!

I feel very fortunate and blessed to have Dr. Shanbhag and his associates as my naturopathic team. Dr. Shanbhag is a world-class doctor, having taught other doctors and written books during the past 30 years, as well as being a featured speaker at conferences.I try to stay away from prescription drugs and he advises me on products as well as foods to address my health concerns. A couple years ago, I did decide to take a course of prescription drugs for a health problem. He supported me through the process and recommended natural supplements to help my body deal with the side affects from the drugs.I highly recommend Dr. Shanbhags natural medicine clinic as a caring and compassionate team of highly-skilled medical professionals.

I recently attended the Wellness Breakfast for your Body Type cooking class with Dr. Gayathri Shanbhag. It was an inspiring class filled with practical information on the basic principals of Ayurveda and how to prepare easy and delicious food as part of your morning routine. Dr. Gayathri demonstrated how to make a hot tea filled with Ayurveda spices; flax seed smoothie; and a savory quinoa dish among other things. Her approach was very clear and friendly. She was extremely knowledgeable and her decades of experience in Ayurveda was apparent.This was my first time visiting Natural Medicine & Ayurveda Clinic. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly.

I have had a really positive experience with Dr. Shanbhag and Dr. Samika this past year. I have alopecia which is an autoimmune disease that causes the hair on your body and head to fall out. I was almost completely bald when I started the Ayurvedic treatment with Dr. Shanbhag and since then I have been seeing growth. I had tried other treatments previously such as acupuncture, steroid injections, topical solutions, other diets but nothing seemed to be working on their own. Alopecia is basically incurable. Ayurvedic medicine is such a great medicine because of its holistic approach; in order to heal I have to watch my diet, exercise more, keep stress levels low and take the herbal medicine given to me regularly. It has been a tough journey especially with being a full time student with a job and other activities but even through all this I have seen progress. I highly recommend that you try the Ayurvedic treatment with Dr. Shanbhag if you also have alopecia or any other problems.

As a holistic nutritionist, I love working with naturopaths who believe in healing the body with natural medicine. Dr. Shanbhag is not only incredibly educated and experienced but also a published author and educator. His team of five integrative health experts are individually very talented.Their office is very organized, calming and wonderful with both phone and email communication, as well as appointment reminders.In addition to ongoing wellness checks, I did the 7 day Ayurvedic Panchakarma to detoxify my body. I loved how attentive the office was to me and how simple they made something that was totally new for me!

Thank you for Dr. Shanbhag and his team at Natural Medicine & Ayurveda I have made many long lasting life changes for my health and wellbeing. When I first came in for treatment I had no idea how to be a person. I had been mostly starving myself, living on black coffee and occasionally binging on rice. I had a chronic pain in my stomach that no western doctors could explain, and I had many other chronic issues including irregular periods. I have now changed my diet and lifestyle and quit coffee and feel a lot more grounded and sane. Dr. Shanbhag even prescribed me a special herb that helped me get my period on time, previously it was so irregular I could get it either every two weeks or go up to a year without it. I would recommend anyone to work on finding the root of their problems at Natural Medicine & Ayurveda and finally get some answers.THANK YOU!

At Natural Medicine & Ayurveda , I met a team of experts lead by Dr. Vivek Shanbhag. Dr. Shanbhag and Dr. Samika helped me making a customized holistic health plan around my special needs and interests.The ease and warmth with which the knowledge is shared by Dr. Shanbhag helped me to respect the uniqueness I carry , honor it , respect it more. The herbal supplements and diet consultation are helping me feeling more balanced. I am seeing Dr. Shanbhag from past few months.What inspires me to continue this journey to self crossing the bridge of body smoothly is the way the team educated me about my particular body constitution. As many factor affecting ones health are considered , its a journey of patience and consistency. It feels great to experience support a very homely yet professional environment.I wish the whole team good luck for their continuing and future wellness projects.

Background:Suffering from chronic leg pain (causing limp after short walk) and pain in right hip from sitting more than 30 mins.I have been to best institutions in bay area and there was no convincing diagnosis of my condition that developed over a year from working long hours and commuting.Received treatment through regular health care services over a period of 2 years such as physical therapy, botox injections, epidural injection, use of inversion table, use of quell. The results were limited relief from various methods and I was stuck with standing most of the day and very limited walking. I would refer to my hip pain at about 7 and the leg pain would vary based on walking.Ayurvedic treatment:Finally after much skepticism I decided to try ayurvedic treatment.I visited 2 doctors in bay area and decided to continue with Dr Shanbhag as his approach was more holistic.He put me on multiple lines of treatment namely massage therapy, diet and supplements.To my great relief I started seeing benefits in about 6-8 weeks. By the end of 3 months I was able to sit for significant amounts of time. At the end of 6 months my pain level in hip is about 2-3 and I am able to sit all day long with occasional pain.However my leg pain is still there but I have made significant progress.Currently I have started taking acupuncture (different provider) and believe that the combination of Dr. Shanbhags treatment and acupuncture will relieve me of my leg pain. I also plan to get the full Panchkarma treatment as soon as time permits.If you are suffering from chronic issues I highly recommend seeking help from Dr Shanbhag.His entire team is very well trained for holistic treatment. Dr Samika has been able to change my diet very effectively and helped me stay on top of the treatment.I consider myself fortunate that we have such a talented and learned practitioner in south bay.Lastly I would like to add that these methods take time and one needs to keep trying them.

Dr. Shanbagh and his team are simply amazing. They approach your health and wellness from a holistic perspective, which makes them special.Each body is different and so is our lifestyle. Dr. Shanbaghs wellness plan will be personalized to you and your body type, which is very unique. Compare that with mainstream healthcare methods which just focus on the symptoms and prescribe chemical pills right away, without any consideration for you and your body type. Thats the key and makes sense, isnt it?Dr. Shanbagh and his team take care of you like a family member and I feel very comfortable working with them as my health & wellness partner.

I have received multiple treatments from the team at Natural Medicine & Ayurveda and I couldnt have had a better experience. I was suffering from recurring bouts of eczema on my forearms that refused to go away with creams and ointments and some pain in my lower back and shoulders. I also have hypertension for which I take medication that was failing to keep my blood pressure low enough and might have had to be increased. Dr. Shanbhag conducted a thorough consultation to understand my various complaints and prescribed three different forms of natural treatments - Herbal supplements, a specific diet and specific type of exercise regimens for my hypertension. After a brief change in my symptoms, a 7 day detox program for the eczema and a full body oil massage for the pain was given. Dr. Shanbhag himself monitored the treatment for hypertension while another of their team members, Dr. Devika supervised my detox treatment. Im now free of eczema and my blood pressure is well in control too! Courtney and Dr. Devika performed the oil massage treatment that brought me much needed relief from the soreness and pain in my muscles. As a bonus, I even lost a few pounds after the detox treatment. The whole team was very professional and friendly and flexible with the timings to suit my schedule. Im extremely satisfied with the results of my treatments and the overall experience. I highly recommend this clinic if you are looking for a natural way to fix your health issues.

Desperation drove me to Dr. Shanbhag’s office nearly four years ago. I’d seen every doctor and specialist for my condition (basically I get unbearably itchy if I don’t take a regimen of herbs and prescription medications), and many doctors “fired” me because they didn’t know how to treat me. Luckily, a friend recommend Dr. Shanbhag. I called the number and not only did he pick up the phone himself, when he heard of my condition, he told me to come to the office immediately. He took my pulse and knew a lot about me that I hadn’t told him. He stared me on herbs and teas in conjunction with the prescription medications I was taking. At one point I was taking 99 pills a day. Now it is closer to 30, most of which are herbs and supplements. My condition is under control. I am able to live life again. I was so miserable before, so hopeless. And being that sick is really lonely. But I don’t feel alone anymore. I have a team of experts to help me with every aspect of my heath.They strengthen my own intuition about my health and my body. Because they are teaching me how it works and why things are out of whack for me. Their kindness and compassion towards my body and health is causing me to feel that way too. So I’m taking better care of myself.When emotional trauma began to jeopardize the strides in my physical health, Dr. Shanbhag was available for counseling services. He is kind, astute, and listens without judgment. Dr. Shanbhag and his team are a treasure. No matter what ails me; they always bring me back to health.Occasionally my inner kid says, “I don’t want to!” like when it was suggested that I sip hot water rather than gulp cold water. But I tried it, and now I prefer it. And I don’t feel nauseous all day anymore. Just by making this one simple and easy adjustment, my quality of life has dramatically improved.Awhile back I injured my leg so badly I had to use a walker. Dr. Shanbhag saw me that day and Dr. Devika gave me a therapeutic massage. She also remembered when this first started for me and the treatments we had already done - even though I had forgotten all about it. The diagnosis was sciatica with muscle spasms. It took a few visits and some stretching and massage at home, but I fully recovered in two weeks - max - from barely able to move with a walker to better than before I hurt my leg. Even though what they do seems miraculous, it is science-based. If you have anything wrong with you at all, give them a try. You will receive holistic and compassionate care that works!Dr. Shanbhag is now my primary care physician. I love that they have all their online products in-house. I’m so glad I discovered this wonderful place!
