Acupuncture for Emotional Health in Los Angeles

Acupuncture Treatments for Improving Emotional Health

Our emotions affect how our bodies work and how our lives are lived, yet emotional health is one of the most underrated and undertreated aspects of health. Dr. Mitra knows the importance of this, which is why she has dedicated her practice to helping her patients realize their potential through acupuncture for emotional health. From helping with accumulated stress to mitigating symptoms of depression, our licensed acupuncture clinic in Beverly Hills offers tailored treatments to improve your emotional well-being.

Stimulating Your Body to Improve Emotional Health

Acupuncture for emotional health is not external medicine that forces changes onto your body – it is a natural treatment that guides your body to do what’s best for you and come into balance. In traditional Chinese medicine, emotions such as stress, anxiety, and depression disrupt the free flow of Qi, your vital energy. This will negatively affect different events in the body, such as digestion, sleep, mood, and other aspects of daily life. Acupuncture frees up the free flow of Qi, bringing your body back into balance to improve your well-being.

From the Western perspective, acupuncture for emotional health stimulates your nervous and endocrine systems, encouraging your body to produce beneficial hormones and rectify hormonal imbalances. By regulating high cortisol levels and stimulating the production of endorphins, acupuncture helps with stress and anxiety. Acupuncture can trigger natural serotonin production, improving your mood and mitigating symptoms of depression. It can also regulate your body’s circadian rhythm, enhancing sleep quality and helping with insomnia.  

There are many things that emotional health acupuncture can help with, but it is as important to treat the underlying causes as it is to treat the symptoms. That is why at BH Acuhealth Clinic, we take a holistic approach and will tailor the acupuncture treatments to your specific situation and needs. We also specialize in:

A Word from Dr. Mitra

Dr. Mitra Daneshrad

“I had a patient who at age 21, in her last semester of college, suddenly experienced severe anxiety: she was not able to eat, she was afraid of getting out of the house, she was losing weight, she was severely depressed and could not stop crying. She felt completely unable to attend her classes or be in social settings. We slowly worked at it, and worked at it. It took less than two months of treatment – sometimes once a week, sometimes twice a week – but she finally felt better; she graduated on time and successfully started a new career. It was wonderful for me to watch and know that I helped her.”

Get rid of stress, anxiety & depression!

Dr. Mitra has been an angel as I have been on my fertility journey!! I began seeing her after a failed IVF attempt, preparing for a second attempt. Based on her recommendation to change my diet, and having weekly sessions with her before my 2nd attempt, my AMH levels improved to normal and I had lost 20 lbs all within 2 months time. I believe her help allowed for a successful 2nd IVF procedure, and I am well into my second trimester currently! She is very knowledgeable and extremely passionate about her patients and their experience. I would highly recommend her as a wonderful acupuncturist!

My husband and I had been trying to conceive for 7 months. I started seeing Mitra Daneshrad in November 2019 because at that time my cycles started becoming irregular. Before seeing a fertility specialist at the one year mark of trying or, taking any fertility medication we wanted to try an alternative approach. Fast forward to February 2020 and I just found out we're expecting! Thanks to Mitra and her knowledge and experience with infertility and acupuncture for helping us through our ttc journey. Mitra is extremely sweet and friendly and makes you feel super comfortable and relaxed. If you've ever questioned whether acupuncture works for infertility, I believe it does! I would definitely recommend Mitra to any couples who are struggling with trying to conceive.

I was initially referred to Dr. Mitra for lower back and sciatica pain related to a herniated disc. Her weekly treatments offered relief as well as a feeling of rejuvenation in my overall body. The added bonus of seeing Dr. Mitra is her extensive knowledge and experience with fertility and the female reproductive system. She not only worked on my back pain, but was also able to help with my cycle and any other issues that would come up for me such as nasal congestion. She is a great practitioner to have in one's overall health & wellness regimen.

Extremely healing, helpful and friendly. I have been coming to her for over a year and the treatments are always beneficial. And I am rather particular, so that means a lot. Well kept offices and other great doctors in the same space. She also shares daily affirmations to meditate on while on the table, which I enjoy.

Dr. Mitra is the absolute best! I was lucky enough to do Accupuncture sessions with her throughout my infertility struggles, pregnancy, birth of my miracle baby, post natal recovery and now as I try for my second! Mitra is so knowledgeable, kind and a fertility expert. She also treats any additional symptoms (emotional and physical) you are faced with each week. Truly, I believe she was integral part of my healthy pregnancy. She is very accommodating and truly cares.

Dr. Mitra Daneshrad is one of the best Acupuncture Doctor. I was struggling to get pregnant and after going with a lot of doctors, doing treatments nothing would seemed to work. My closed friend told me about this amazing doctor and i decided to give it a last try. I went ahead and she did me several acupuncture treatments and here i am now pregnant with twins. There's no words for me to described how happy i am i want to thank Dr.Mitra shes just amazing.
