A Journey Rooted in
Curiosity and Compassion

Gayathri’s path began in academia, with a PhD focused on ganas—supernatural beings found in Indian and Buddhist art, symbolising both cosmic forces and, in some traditions, personifications of disease. Her research has uncovered how ancient cultures understood illness as a complex interplay of spiritual and physical elements, often represented through these figures.

When her mother was diagnosed with cancer, Gayathri’s lifelong curiosity became a personal calling. Inspired by the traditional beliefs that these “demons” could be transformed through medicinal plants and healing practices, she embarked on a journey into clinical herbal medicine. Today, she blends scholarly insight with heartfelt care, offering evidence-based treatments grounded in global botanical traditions.

A Philosophy of Personalised Healing

“No two treatment plans are ever alike,” Gayathri says. Each protocol is crafted based on comprehensive bloodwork, detailed medical history, and individual goals. She combines botanical wisdom from around the world with modern diagnostics to design therapies as unique as the client’s biochemistry.
