Suvarnaprashan for Immunity and Growth: Ayurveda’s Golden Gift By Dr Sonalli Kavthekar

Introduction

In Ayurveda, the foundation of lifelong health begins in childhood. One of the most powerful and time-tested Ayurvedic formulations for immunity, growth, and brain development is Suvarnaprashan. This ancient blend supports physical strength, sharpens intellect, enhances memory, improves speech, and boosts immunity from an early age.

At Shree Vishwaneel Ayurveda Panchakarma and Aesthetic Clinic, Dr Sonalli Kavthekar prepares Suvarnaprashan using an authentic, traditional method that ensures purity, potency, and complete safety. Families from across Maharashtra, various Indian states, and international locations such as the USA, the UK, and Australia trust the clinic for this classical Ayurvedic practice that nurtures children’s development naturally.

What is Suvarnaprashan?

Suvarnaprashan is a classical Ayurvedic formulation made using purified Swarna Bhasma (gold ash) combined with a medicated ghee prepared from intelligence-enhancing, immunity-boosting herbs. Its purpose is to support:

  • Strong immunity
  • Enhanced memory and cognitive development
  • Improved concentration and focus
  • Better digestion and metabolism
  • Healthy physical growth
  • Emotional balance and calmness
  • Speech clarity and learning ability
  • Support for delayed milestones

It is one of Ayurveda’s most effective formulations for promoting a child’s overall development.

How Suvarnaprashan is Prepared at Shree Vishwaneel Ayurveda Panchakarma and Aesthetic Clinic

Under the expertise of Dr Sonalli Kavthekar, Suvarnaprashan is prepared in a detailed multi-step process that follows classical Ayurvedic guidelines.

Step 1: Preparation of Medicated Ghee

A base ghee is prepared using the following Ayurvedic herbs:

  • Brahmi
  • Shankhpushpi
  • Ashwagandha
  • Jatamavasi
  • Amrita (Giloy)
  • Jestha Madhu or Yashti Madhu
  • Vekhand
  • Turmeric (Rajni)

These herbs support brain development, improve retention and alertness, enhance digestion, build immunity, and promote balanced growth.

Step 2: Addition of Purified Bhasma

Once the herbal ghee is ready, purified Ayurvedic bhasmas and minerals are added:

  • Swarna Bhasma (Gold Ash / Gold Dust)
  • Rajat Bhasma (Silver Ash)
  • Sahasrputi Mica
  • Rasa Sindhur
  • Mandur
  • Shankh Bhasma
  • Trivanga Bhasma
  • Praval Pishti

These ingredients are added in their purified and safe form, making the formulation highly potent while ensuring there are no side effects. In Ayurveda, such metals are processed through classical purification methods (Shodhana and Marana), which make them gentle, beneficial, and completely child-friendly.

Step 3: Final Blending

A small amount of pure honey is added at the end to help the formulation absorb better in the body.

This multi-step preparation ensures that Suvarnaprashan at Shree Vishwaneel Ayurveda Panchakarma and Aesthetic Clinic is potent, safe, and effective.

Panchakarma at Shri Vishwaneel Ayurveda, Panchakarma, and Aesthetic Clinic: A Personalised Approach to Holistic Healing

At Shri Vishwaneel Ayurveda, Panchakarma, and Aesthetic Clinic in Sanpada, Navi Mumbai, under the expert guidance of Dr Sonalli Kavthekar, Panchakarma is practised as a scientific, individualised, and result-oriented therapy. Patients visit not only from Juinagar, Sanpada, Vashi, Belapur, and CBD Belapur, but also from across India and abroad. Over the years, international patients from Japan, Australia, California, Canada, Saudi Arabia, and Dubai have chosen to undergo Panchakarma at Shri Vishwaneel during their vacations or while visiting relatives in Mumbai.

People seek Panchakarma for a wide range of health issues, including Thyroid disorders, Diabetes, High Cholesterol, Migraine, Joint Pain, Digestive Problems, Skin Disorders, Kidney and Liver issues, PCOD, Ovarian Cysts, and other female reproductive problems. It is also beneficial for paediatric conditions and overall preventive health.

Dr Sonalli explains, “Panchakarma must be planned with care. It is not only about cleansing; it is about understanding what your body is ready for.”

Case Story: Panchakarma for a Working Professional

Mr. Patel, a 32 year old IT professional from Navi Mumbai, approached Shri Vishwaneel with complaints of recurring headaches, red rashes, acidity, and poor appetite. After Nadi Parikshana (pulse diagnosis), Dr Sonalli identified a high Pitta Dosha as the root cause.

His main concern was practical: “How many days will Panchakarma take? Will I have to take leave from work?”

To accommodate his schedule, a flexible plan was designed around his office timings. The therapy began with internal Ayurvedic medicines for ten to fifteen days to prepare his body for cleansing (Poorva Karma). His Pitta imbalance was reduced after Vamana, and his rashes subsided following Virechana.

Throughout the sessions, Shirodhara was used to relieve stress and migraine, while Abhyanga (oil massage) and Potli massage helped ease back pain caused by long hours of sitting and travel.

Additional Case Highlights from Shri Vishwaneel

To demonstrate the wide range of conditions treated successfully through Panchakarma, here are brief case summaries:

1. PCOD and Infertility

A young woman with irregular cycles, PCOD, and poor egg development underwent Vamana, Virechana, Basti, and Shirodhara. Her cycles were regulated, egg growth improved, and she conceived naturally.

2. Male Infertility

A male patient with very low sperm count, poor sperm motility, and recurrent infection received Panchakarma after pulse diagnosis. Within three months, sperm count and motility improved, resulting in natural conception.

3. Repeated Miscarriages

A woman with high Pitta, severe acidity, and three previous miscarriages underwent Vamana, Virechana, Basti, and Uttar Basti. She conceived naturally, sustained the pregnancy, and delivered a healthy baby. Years later, her second conception was also natural.

4. Chronic Migraine

A patient experiencing migraine episodes two to three times a week for four to five years achieved complete relief after Vamana and Virechana. The attacks have not returned for several years.

5. Severe Knee Joint Pain

A patient with advanced osteoarthritis and difficulty walking improved significantly after Janu Basti, Potli massage, steam, enema, and leech therapy. Walking and mobility were restored within a few sessions.

6. Weight Management

A patient with significant weight gain and lethargy experienced notable weight loss and improved energy after undergoing Panchakarma.

7. Rheumatoid Arthritis (Aamvata)

A patient with severe joint pain, swelling, morning stiffness, and whole body inflammation received Vamana, Virechana, and Basti. She experienced remarkable improvement and regained normal functioning.

The Five Stages of Panchakarma

According to Dr Sonalli, Panchakarma is a deep internal purification process that restores the balance of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.

Vamana (Therapeutic Emesis)

Helps to remove excess Kapha and is effective for:
• Respiratory conditions
• Obesity and cholesterol imbalance
• Skin conditions
• Indigestion and lethargy

Virechana (Purgation Therapy)

Balances Pitta and is useful for:
• Skin and hair problems
• Allergies and migraines
• Liver and kidney disorders
• Thyroid, diabetes, high cholesterol

Basti (Medicated Enema Therapy)

Cleanses Vata and is beneficial for:
• Joint pain and arthritis
• Spine conditions
• Osteoporosis and chronic fatigue
• Infertility and hormonal imbalance

Nasya (Nasal Detox Therapy)

Improves sinus health, migraine, stress, and sleep.

Raktamokshana (Blood Purification Therapy)

Supports treatment for chronic skin disorders and toxin accumulation.

Additional therapies in Panchakarma

Shri Vishwaneel offers additional therapies including Kati Basti, Manya Basti, Uttara Basti, Jalauka (Leech Therapy), Netra Tarpan, and Potli Massage. These enhance Panchakarma outcomes and are selected based on individual needs.

Separate blogs will explore each therapy in detail.

Duration and Scheduling

Dr Sonalli explains, “A complete Panchakarma program generally lasts from seven days to three months depending on the patient’s health, strength, and lifestyle. When Panchakarma extends for three months, it is done at intervals as per the patient’s convenience.”

No two Panchakarma plans are the same.

Packages and Pricing

Panchakarma packages at Shri Vishwaneel range from ₹4,000 to ₹1,00,000, depending on therapy duration, oils, and treatments required.

One day Shuddhi packages are available, including Full Body Massage, Steam, Enema, and Shirodhara, priced between ₹1,500 and ₹3,000.

Patients may also choose weekly, fortnightly, or monthly sessions for maintenance.

Who Should Avoid Panchakarma

People who are extremely weak, underweight, or recovering from major illness should avoid detox therapies.

Pregnant women should avoid Vamana and Virechana, but Basti can safely be performed in the eighth or ninth month to support smoother delivery.

Results and Recovery

Mr Patel experienced improvement within the first week. His headaches eased after Virechana, appetite improved, sleep deepened with Shirodhara, and rashes disappeared by week three.

Dr Sonalli summarises, “Panchakarma is not only about removing toxins; it is about aligning your body’s rhythm with your lifestyle and bringing harmony to all three doshas.”

Conclusion

Panchakarma is a profound dialogue between the body and its inner intelligence. When performed under expert guidance, it rejuvenates the body, strengthens immunity, and restores balance.

At Shri Vishwaneel Ayurveda, Panchakarma, and Aesthetic Clinic, every therapy begins after detailed pulse diagnosis, ensuring a personalised, scientific, and authentic Ayurvedic experience.

Ayurveda emphasizes treating migraine holistically through herbal medicines, detoxification therapies, dietary modifications, and lifestyle changes.

Migraine (Ardhavabhedaka) is a disorder that can be effectively managed through Ayurvedic principles by addressing its root cause rather than just suppressing symptoms.

Consult an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized treatment and long-term relief.

Thyroid Balance with Ayurveda: A Natural, Gentle Path to Hormonal Health

The thyroid gland may be small, but its impact on your life is massive.

From how fast your heart beats to how energetic—or exhausted—you feel, the thyroid quietly regulates some of the most crucial functions in your body. So when it goes out of balance—whether slowing down (hypothyroidism) or speeding up (hyperthyroidism)—you feel it in every corner of your life: your sleep, weight, mood, even your digestion.

And while modern medicine often suggests a lifelong prescription, what if there was a way to heal at the root?
A way that’s gentle, natural, and deeply in tune with your body?

That’s where Ayurveda steps in—with its time-tested, holistic approach to restoring balance.

Understanding Thyroid Imbalance – The Ayurvedic Way

Ayurveda doesn’t just treat the thyroid—it sees it as part of a larger story your body is telling. The thyroid is linked to Agni (your digestive and metabolic fire) and the Vishuddha Chakra (your throat energy center). Here’s how Ayurveda views the two main types of thyroid imbalance:

• Hypothyroidism: Often linked to excess Kapha and low Agni. You may feel tired, gain weight easily, struggle with constipation, or feel emotionally dull.
• Hyperthyroidism: Tied to aggravated Vata and Pitta. You may feel anxious, restless, experience insomnia, and lose weight rapidly.

But Ayurveda believes healing is possible—by restoring harmony through food, herbs, therapies, and emotional well-being.

Ayurvedic Herbs that Support Thyroid Function:

Nature offers powerful support when used wisely. Here are some of the most trusted Ayurvedic herbs for thyroid balance:

✅ Ashwagandha – Especially helpful in hypothyroidism, it calms the nervous system and balances hormones.
✅ Brahmi – A brain tonic that soothes anxiety, often used in hyperthyroidism.
✅ Guggulu – Supports thyroid function and detoxification.
✅ Kanchanar Guggulu – A classic Ayurvedic formula for reducing thyroid swelling and restoring function.
✅ Triphala – Gently cleanses the digestive system, promoting better absorption and metabolic health.

Note: These herbs should be taken under the guidance of a certified Ayurvedic doctor. Self-medication can lead to imbalance.

Panchakarma: Deep Detox for Lasting Thyroid Healing:

If your thyroid issues have been stubborn or long-term, Panchakarma may offer the deep reset your body needs. Panchakarma is Ayurveda’s five-fold detox therapy. It’s not just a cleanse—it’s a complete mind-body rejuvenation that works at the root of disease by removing toxins (ama) and restoring doshic balance.

For Hypothyroidism, Panchakarma may include:

• Vamana (therapeutic emesis) – to expel Kapha and unblock sluggish metabolism.
• Virechana (purgation) – to cleanse the digestive tract and kindle Agni.
• Basti (medicated enema) – to balance Vata, support nervous system, and improve hormonal flow.

For Hyperthyroidism, treatments are customized with:​

• Nasya (nasal therapy) – to calm the mind and stabilize the nervous system.
• Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) – to reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional triggers.
• Lepas (herbal pastes on the throat) – to directly soothe the thyroid area.

Many people in Navi Mumbai are now turning to the Best Panchakarma centers for thyroid support—not just to manage symptoms but to experience transformation at the root level.

What to Eat and How to Live – Ayurvedic Lifestyle Tips

Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs. Healing happens every day—through food, rest, and routine.

Diet Tips:

• Choose warm, cooked, simple meals.
• Reduce dairy, processed food, and white sugar.
• Add metabolism-supporting foods like pumpkin seeds, seaweed, and whole grains.
• Use thyroid-friendly spices: turmeric, ginger, cumin, black pepper.

Daily Lifestyle:

• Wake and sleep at the same time every day—circadian rhythm is key for hormonal health.
• Do Abhyanga (oil massage) every morning with sesame oil to reduce Vata and promote circulation.
• Practice Pranayama like Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) to calm anxiety.
• Include Yoga asanas like Sarvangasana (Shoulder Stand), Ustrasana (Camel Pose), and Matsyasana (Fish Pose) to stimulate the throat area.

Healing Emotionally: The Mind-Body Connection

Thyroid health is not just physical—it’s emotional too.
Unprocessed grief, anger, or long-held stress can block the Vishuddha Chakra, affecting thyroid function.
Ayurveda suggests using:

• Meditation to reduce stress
• Mantra chanting (try repeating “Ham”—the sound for throat chakra)
• Journaling to release suppressed emotions

When emotions are acknowledged and processed, the body begins to heal more easily.

Ayurvedic + Medical = Smart Healing

While Ayurveda can deeply support thyroid health, regular medical monitoring is still important.
Always keep up with blood tests (TSH, T3, T4), and never stop conventional medications without your doctor’s approval.
Ayurveda can work alongside your current treatment, and over time, may reduce your dependency on synthetic hormones.

Ready to Take the First Step?

If you're in Navi Mumbai and exploring a natural, non-invasive, personalized path to thyroid health, consider Ayurvedic consultation and Panchakarma therapy.
👉 Balance your hormones, not just your numbers. Heal from the root. Reclaim your energy, mood, and vitality—with Ayurveda.

Stress management through Ayurveda

Stress has become a prevalent issue in the present scenario which is fast-paced and demanding. From demanding work schedules to personal responsibilities, the pressures of modern life can take a toll on mental and physical well-being.  Ayurveda, the ancient Indian wisdom, offers holistic methods that focus on restoring balance and harmony within the body and mind. Ayurveda is an important approach to managing stress. Shree Vishwaneel Ayurveda & Panchakarma Center is a prestigious Ayurveda center in Navi Mumbai. It is one of the trusted names in treating stress-related issues.

Ayurveda, which translates to “the science of life,” views stress as an imbalance of body doshas- Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. According to Ayurvedic philosophy, each individual has a unique constitution, or Prakriti, which determines their physical, mental, and emotional characteristics, it can lead to stress-related symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, insomnia, and digestive issues. In this blog, we will learn how Ayurveda helps in managing stress.

1. Lifestyle modifications and daily routines

One of the primary ways Ayurveda addresses stress management is through lifestyle modifications and daily routines. Ayurveda emphasizes the importance of Dinacharya, or daily routine, which includes waking up early, engaging in mindfulness or meditation, and following a balanced diet. Establishing a consistent daily routine aligned with one’s unique constitution, or Prakriti, helps promote stability and resilience in the face of stressors.

2. Dietary habits

Dietary habits play a crucial role in Ayurvedic stress management. Consuming a diet that is appropriate for one’s dosha constitution can help pacify imbalances and promote overall health and vitality. Fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nourishing fats, and excessive stimulants are to be avoided.

3. Ayurvedic herbs and supplements

Ayurvedic herbs and supplements are also employed to support stress management. Adaptogenic herbs such as Ashwagandha, Brahmi, and Tulsi are renowned for their ability to help the body adapt to stress and promote relaxation. These herbs can be consumed in various forms, including teas, capsules, or as part of Ayurvedic formulations known as Rasayanas, which are rejuvenating tonics that promote overall well-being.

4. Ayurvedic massage

Ayurvedic massage, or Abhyanga, is another effective stress management technique. Warm herbal oils are massaged onto the body to nourish the skin and relax the muscles. And calm the mind. This practice not only helps alleviate physical tension but also promotes well-being by inducing a sense of relaxation and tranquility.

5. Mental and emotional health

Ayurveda also emphasizes the importance of mental and emotional hygiene in stress management. Practices such as Pranayama (breathing exercises), Dhyana (meditation), and Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) are recommended to cultivate a calm and focused mind. These practices help reduce stress hormones, improve mental clarity, and enhance resilience to stressors.

6. Self-awareness and self-care

Self-awareness and self-care are important in stress management. By cultivating mindfulness, self-reflection, and self-compassion, individuals can develop greater resilience and emotional balance in the face of life’s challenges.

7. Personalized approaches

In addition to lifestyle and dietary interventions, Ayurveda also offers personalized approaches to stress management based on an individual’s unique Prakriti and current imbalances. Ayurvedic practitioners assess various factors such as diet, lifestyle, sleep patterns, and emotional state to tailor a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses the root cause of stress.

Conclusion

By incorporating Ayurvedic principles into daily life, individuals can cultivate resilience, balance, and inner peace, even amidst life’s challenges. Through mindful living, dietary modifications, herbal remedies, and therapeutic practices, Ayurveda offers timeless wisdom for navigating the stresses of modern life and promoting holistic well-being. Ayurveda, which translates to “science of life,” is rooted in the belief that optimal health is achieved through harmony and balance within the body. Central to Ayurvedic philosophy is the concept of doshas- Vata, Pitta, and Kapha- which represent unique combinations of elemental energies present in every individual. According to Ayurveda, stress arises when there is an imbalance or disturbance in these doshas, leading to physical, mental, and emotional disharmony. In the current scenario, stress has become so common. From the pressures of work to personal responsibilities and societal expectations, the weight of stress can manifest in various ways, impacting both mental and physical health. Amidst the plethora of stress management techniques available, Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of medicine, offers profound insights and practices to alleviate stress and restore balance to the mind, body, and spirit.
