About Us

Welcome to Dr. Bhat’s Padma Ayur Varma Nilayam

Dr. Bhat’s Padma Ayur Varma Nilayam (Outpatient Department only) carries forward a legacy of healing rooted in Ayurveda, Marma Chikitsa, and holistic medicine traditions. The center began its journey in 1998 under the name Saroja Panchakarma & Varma Chikitsa Centre, guided by the vision of Late Dr. P. Anantha Bhat, a dedicated homeopath, and supported by Dr. A. Rangaprasad Bhat, an Ayurveda physician.

Since its inception, the clinic has been serving patients with specialized therapeutic practices including Panchakarma, Marma Chikitsa, Ayurveda consultation, Homeopathy, Flower remedies, and intuitive mind guidance.

The Legacy of Healing

Dr. P. Anantha Bhat’s journey is an inspiring tale. Once an Honorary Judicial Magistrate, he chose a path of healing after mastering Homeopathy and registering as an RMP under the ISM&H in 1990. His roots go even deeper, his father, Vaidya Ranga Bhat, was a renowned folk medicine practitioner and an expert in Garadi and Marma traditions, a rich heritage connected with therapeutic martial practices similar to Kalari.

This lineage continues with Dr. A. Rangaprasad Bhat, the third generation of this family of healers. After graduating from S.D.M. College of Ayurveda, Udupi (1992 batch), he dedicated himself to advancing the field of Marma Chikitsa. His practice blends classical principles with thoughtful innovations, while always upholding the integrity of Ayurveda’s energy pathways connecting marmas and chakras.

Professional Journey

  • Served as a faculty member at Venkataramana Ayurveda College, Mylapore (Chennai), until 2009, teaching Anatomy (Sharira Rachana), ENT (Shalākya Tantra), and Panchakarma.
  • Since 2009, has been a full time practitioner, specializing in Marma Chikitsa for chronic bone and joint disorders, acute sports injuries, and neuromuscular conditions.
  • Known for his spiritually rooted approach, he also supports patients facing stress and emotional imbalances through intuitive guidance, always attributing healing to the blessings of Lord Narayana and Guru Shri Raghavendra.

Vision and Philosophy

Dr. Rangaprasad Bhat firmly believes in breaking the myth that Ayurveda is slow in action. With proper diagnosis and accurate medicines, Ayurveda can deliver effective and timely healing. His mission is to treat, teach, and spread awareness about Ayurveda’s true potential.

Many of the medicines prescribed in the clinic are prepared in house under his personal supervision, ensuring authenticity and quality.

The Personal Touch

Unlike larger centers, here each patient receives undivided attention and tailored therapies. Consultations and procedures are performed by Dr. Bhat alone, ensuring you always interact directly with your doctor,  never with assistants or intermediaries.

 Ancestral Wisdom, Contemporary Healing

Drawing from a rich lineage of healers and extensive training, Dr. Bhat integrates classical Ayurveda, Marma Therapy, Panchakarma, and intuitive guidance each visit is shaped by deep listening and thoughtful application of tradition and research.

Healing is a Partnership

The ethos here is simple: healing is not just medicine, it's connection, trust, and respect for individual needs. Dr. Bhat is committed to guiding every patient safely on their path back to health, addressing body, mind, and spirit.

Embracing Diversity Connecting Across Cultures

Padma Ayur Varma Nilayam welcomes patients from all walks of life and language backgrounds. Dr. Bhat communicates fluently in Tulu, Kannada, Malayalam, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, English, and reads Sanskrit and Hindi, bridging comfort and understanding for every visitor.

Beyond the Clinic

Apart from his clinical work, Dr. Bhat’s interests extend to writing and blogging on Marma Chikitsa, Ayurveda, and his experiences in clinical practice, sharing valuable insights with readers and fellow practitioners.
