I am a singer and had been suffering from a chronic cough for over three months, which completely affected my ability to sing and perform. Despite taking multiple courses of antibiotics, there was no lasting relief. I was deeply disheartened as singing is not just my passion but my profession too.
That’s when I consulted Dr. Vanitha at Dhanwanthralaya Ayurveda Speciality Hospital. Her confidence, detailed understanding, and the Ayurvedic kashayams she prescribed worked wonders. In just 15 days, my cough subsided completely, and I was able to get back to singing without any strain.
What antibiotics couldn’t achieve in months, Ayurveda did in days—thanks to Dr. Vanitha’s expertise and care. I’m incredibly grateful and would highly recommend Dhanwanthralaya to anyone seeking genuine healing through Ayurveda.

I am an IT professional and had been suffering from persistent back pain for quite some time due to long hours of desk work. After trying various treatments with limited relief, I consulted Dr. Vanitha at Dhanwanthralaya Ayurveda Speciality Hospital, and it turned out to be a turning point in my recovery.
Dr. Vanitha’s approach was holistic, combining traditional Ayurvedic therapies with lifestyle guidance tailored to my profession. The treatments were effective, the therapists were skilled, and the entire process was handled with care and professionalism. Within a short period, my pain significantly reduced, and I feel much more active and comfortable in my daily routine.
I’m truly grateful to Dr. Vanitha and the entire Dhanwanthralaya team for helping me regain a pain-free life. Highly recommend their expertise to anyone dealing with chronic pain, especially fellow professionals like me!

We admitted my 92-year-old grandmother at Dhanwanthralaya Ayurveda Speciality Hospital after she suffered a hip fracture. Due to her age and health condition, surgery was not a viable option. We were worried and unsure about how to proceed.
But under the care of Dr. Vanitha and her team, she was treated using traditional Ayurvedic methods, and the results have been nothing short of amazing. With gentle therapies, personalized care, and constant attention, my grandmother is now completely fine and trying to walk again—something we never imagined possible without surgery.
We are truly grateful to Dr. Vanitha and the dedicated staff at Dhanwanthralaya for giving her a new lease on life. Highly recommended for anyone seeking safe and holistic healing, especially for the elderly.
