Bio

Shabnam

The private practice of Dr. Shabnam Pourhassani, D.A.C.M. L.Ac. Q.M.E. is unlike most other American Acupuncturists. She practices at the top of her license as a primary care provider (for select patients) virtually in California.  In DTLA, she provides a Taper and Withdraw Program of those suffering with substance use disorder (addition).  Which requires a 14 day stay in Downtown LA.

Other conditions which she provides consultations and possible treatment for in Downtown LA are

  • Cosmetic Acupuncture (worry lines only)
  • Care During Pregnancy
  • Miscarriage Rehab & Recovery (this is her own protocol)
  • Stress Management for Executives, Athletes, Attorneys and Creatives (her own method based on the integration of multiple disciplines)
  • Virtual Primary Care in California
  • Only those who are a good fit are accepted for healthcare services

Stress

Acupuncture for Stress relief, tension relief, and to help you think clearly through a problem you’re stuck on (creative, business or emotional challenges). When the nervous system receives a reset with acupuncture, you will move through challenges easier. Trust me, I’ve been at this for over a decade. Call for a Phone Consultation!

Pain

Acupuncture reduces inflammation, increases blood and oxygen to the muscles, tissues and ligaments locally. It affects the central nervous system by decreasing pain sensitivity, reducing the activity in the limbic system, which reduces pain, the associated anxiety and stress. I treat a wide variety of pain conditions from the spine, to head, to digestive aches. Schedule an appointment and find relief.
