Gade Ayurveda Panchkarma Clinic

Our clinic is located in Andheri East, right in Shop No 1 of the Vinayak Shopping Centre. We are very close to the Nitin Industrial Estate, so it stays quite busy outside with all the workers and trucks moving around. We focus on Panchkarma treatments here, which means we have the wooden massage tables and a lot of different oils stored in the back. It’s a practical space. We didn't spend much on decorations because we think the treatment is what people are actually coming for. I spend most of my day setting up the steam equipment or mixing the herbal pastes. My hands are usually stained a bit from the herbs, but that’s just how it goes in this line of work. The shopping center is a bit old, and sometimes the lights in the hallway flicker, but our shop is always kept clean and ready for whoever walks in. We have a small bench for people to wait on, and I usually have some tea going in the corner. It is a bit loud because of the industrial estate next door, but once you are inside and the treatments start, it feels a lot different. We don't have any corporate bosses or a big mission statement. We just show up, do the work, and help the people who have been coming to us for years. It’s a simple business built on routine and hard work.
