Dr. Kiran Shete is a Pune-based orthopaedic surgeon and pioneer in non-surgical and interventional orthopaedics. In 2010, he founded Spinalogy Clinic with a vision to take musculoskeletal care beyond the operating theatre and into everyday OPD.
With a MS in Orthopaedics and an MBA, he is the Course Director of “Current Office Orthopaedic Concepts (COOC)”, has authored eight indexed, peer-reviewed research papers and five books, and is an invited speaker at national and international conferences and corporate forums. His work extends beyond conventional medicine into Integrative Medicine.
A farmer’s son, proud father of two daughters, cyclist, and lifelong learner, he embraces calculated risks, curiosity, and the courage to take the road less travelled.
Guided by the Law of Karma, his larger pursuit is simple yet profound: to keep learning, serving, and evolving; with liberation as the ultimate destination in this lifetime.
The Story Behind the Author
Kiran grew up between two worlds, the disciplined rigour of science and the quiet depth of traditional Indian living. His grandparents taught him simplicity, rhythm, and nature’s truths. Medicine taught him precision, technology, and logic.
It took years before he realised that true health lies in the union of both.
In his orthopaedic practice, he repeatedly saw patients who were not just physically injured, they were emotionally exhausted, mentally scattered, and spiritually empty. Their MRI findings did not match their suffering. Their lab tests did not reflect their lived reality.
This gap between biology and being became his lifelong curiosity.

From Surgeon to Integrative Thinker
Over time, clinical practice revealed one truth repeatedly,
This observation pushed him into deeper study into Neuroscience, Epigenetics, Circadian Biology, Mind–Body Medicine, Upanishadic Philosophy, Meditation and Breath Science, Psychoneuroimmunology and Longevity Science.
To take this understanding beyond theory, Dr. Kiran Shete founded the Integrative Lifestyle Initiative, a clinical movement designed to turn knowledge into day-to-day transformation.
Here, medicine is practised not as symptom management but as life management. Patients are guided through posture, movement, breath, sleep, nutrition, emotional hygiene, and mind-body alignment using evidence-based tools.
The aim is singular that is to help individuals not just recover, but extend their healthspan, regain agency over their wellbeing, and experience what it truly means to be health-lightened.
Why He Wrote Healthi BEING
For Kiran, the book was not a project, it was a responsibility.
Patients kept asking:
- “Why am I tired even when my tests are normal?”
- “Why do I feel anxious even when life is stable?”
- “Why does my pain return despite treatment?”
- “Why am I losing clarity, focus, or emotional balance?”
He realised that the missing link was not more medicine, it was more understanding of the human being.
Healthi BEING is a map for that transformation:
- Panchakosha meets neuroscience
- Stories meet laboratory tests
- Ancient epics meet MRI machines
- Circadian rhythm meets Upanishadic rhythm
- Emotional knots meet neurobiology
It is a guide for anyone who wants to live longer, clearer, calmer, and more connected to their true self.
