RUCHI MENGHANI

Asheville,NC

Summary

Ayurvedic Practitioner, under the lineage of Dr. Vasant lad. Completing my training soon and graduating by July -2024.
I implement traditional techniques to strengthen body and mind for total well-being. I promote wellness through thorough clinical consultations, doshic assessment and creating Chikitsas (treatment plans) according to needs of the client through traditional techniques of Breathwork (Pranayama), Shamana therapies, Ayurvedic Herbal formulations & Marma therapy, in order to bring balance & equilibrium to the system by addressing Body, Mind & Spirit.

Doctor with a sound knowledge of various concepts of medicine, acquired through practical training and academic projects. An enthusiastic learner with effective communication & interpersonal skills. I decided to venture into opening a medi-salon in 2019, wherein I played the role of a Director in a space which included a team of 25 people. We offered everything from basic salon services to consultations for laser hair reduction. My focus was to engage with clients, understand their needs and offer services which can help them. Collaborating with various salon associated brands, we also educated our team with workshops & live training classes. It helped me to grow as a person, create an empowered atmosphere, build more learning opportunities & client serving skills. With a medicine background, I was able to bring in a fresh perspective towards client service, build better relationship & educate our team to feel more empowered.
