Dr. Deepti Bhatnagar (Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences) Acupuncture Specialist & Holistic Wellness Expert speaks about her journey. She says,”My interest in natural healing and holistic medicine began around 2012–2013. Driven by a desire to understand the body’s innate healing mechanisms, I initially pursued several short-term courses in natural therapies and acupuncture. My passion for integrative healthcare led me to undertake the rigorous 5½-year Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences (BNYS) program from Uttarakhand Ayurved University.
During my academic journey, I have received extensive training in Naturopathy, Yoga Therapy, Acupuncture, Human Anatomy & Physiology, Nutrition & Dietetics
Lifestyle Medicine etc.”
She has also been associated with Kayakalp, VMRT, Holta Palampur( Himachal Pradesh),  an integrated healthcare institution known for combining Naturopathy,Ayurveda, Yoga, Physiotherapy, Traditional Chinese Medicine.” Through years of clinical exposure and practice, Dr. Deepti has developed a patient-centric approach that combines ancient healing wisdom with modern understanding of health and wellness.
She explains Naturopathy and how it works,”Principle Naturopathy is based on the belief that the human body possesses an inherent self-healing capacity. The role of the physician is to support and stimulate this natural healing process rather than merely suppress symptoms. Core principles are Healing Power of Nature and then treat the Root Cause. I feel prevention is better than cure, holistic approach to health is important and minimal use of drugs. Naturopathy focuses on restoring balance through natural therapies such as Diet Therapy, Hydrotherapy, Mud Therapy, Fasting Therapy etc.”
Deepti also shares her take on Yoga therapy. She adds,”Principle Yoga is far more effective than physical exercise. It is a scientific system that works on the body, mind, breath, emotions and consciousness simultaneously.” On Acupuncture she says,”Acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine that involves the stimulation of specific points on the body using ultra-fine sterile needles. Energy (Qi) flows through pathways called meridians.Disease occurs when this flow becomes blocked or imbalanced. Acupuncture helps restore the smooth flow of energy.”

According to Dr. Deepti Bhatnagar, true healing occurs when the body, mind and lifestyle are addressed together. When asked about Prakriti Rishikesh – A Holistic Wellness Destination in the Yoga Capital of the World founded by Deepti and her husband she says,”Prakriti Rishikesh is a wellness retreat that integrates traditional healing sciences with modern wellness principles. Located in the spiritual and natural environment of Rishikesh, the retreat offers guests an opportunity to reconnect with health through holistic and personalized wellness programs like Individual constitution, Health goals, Lifestyle patterns Physical and emotional needs are taken care there. The centre is located amidst the serene Himalayan foothills and spiritual energy of Rishikesh, the environment itself becomes part of the healing process.”

Deepti is also an actress and has featured in several television series, including “Nazar,” “Choti Sarrdaarni,” “Shubharambh,” and “Parineeti.”
