Dr. Maryam's IVF with Confidence Self-Treatment course is a great resource for any woman hoping to increase her chances of a successful pregnancy via IVF. The course content is quick, concise, and easy to implement. Not only does it cover the IVF process for a better understanding of what to expect, but it highlights dietary and lifestyle factors to benefit each step in the process. My husband and I struggled with infertility for over four years, and I was willing to try anything and everything to increase our chances of success. I especially liked the guidance for at-home acupressure, which allowed me to implement this practice repeatedly on the days I wasn’t booked for acupuncture. I'd recommend this course to any woman trying to enhance her fertility, whether her journey involves IVF or baby making the old-fashioned way. I'm currently pregnant with twins and I believe that Chinese Medicine, Acupuncture, and Acupressure all contributed to the success of our growing family.

I found Dr. Maryam through maybe the luckiest referall of my life. I was going through IVF for the first time, after five years of trying to concieve naturally, and she directed me towards her IVF online course to complement our acupuncture sessions. IVF is a stressful and emotional process, but Dr. Maryam's course turned out to be an invaluable resource and educational tool for both my husband and I. Her modules are perfectly constructed for each stage of the IVF process, with clear explainations of what is happening to your body, really helpful diet and lifestyle tips, as well as simple acupressure tutorials. The page is very easy to navigate, and I found the printed sheets useful for review after watching the videos. It was just the right amount of information - detailed, but not overwhelming - and her suggestions were easy to implement. She even included a few great recipes! Dr. Maryam is incredibly knowledgable, and her videos (just like her in-person presence) are soothing and grounding. My first round of IVF was successful and I'm now 9 weeks pregnant. I'm so incredibly grateful for Dr. Maryam, and I truly believe that her wholistic treatment was integral to our joyful outcome. IVF is so expensive, but this course is 100% worth the investment.

In the Male Fertility Self-Treatment Course, Dr. Maryam does an excellent job of condensing and simplifying a lot of valuable information into a series of well-produced videos and helpful quick-reference materials. Her explanations are easy to understand and the course itself is laid out in a way that makes it possible to stop and start at your own pace. I was particularly impressed by the lessons on Self-Acupressure, which is rarely mentioned elsewhere, but easy to do at home after learning the techniques in her course. I'd recommend this program to anyone who's considering or currently working on getting pregnant. My wife and I have been trying for a couple of years and it's the kind of information we wish we'd had at the start of our journey.

This course was definitely a great experience! The possibility of listening carefully to all your advice and pausing it and going back to it was very useful! Also great job on the pdf resource. It's nice to have it as a quick refreshing summary. I have the tools now and now I need to keep pushing myself to use them! God Bless You Dr. Maryam.

Such amazing service! It’s very hard to find a doctor who listens to your concerns and understands you. Dr. Maryam takes the time to listen to you and then educates you about your TCM treatment. She is very kind, gentle and compassionate, right away I knew I could trust her with my health. The treatments have been very effective and I feel so much better! At the end of your session you feel so relaxed and refreshed. I am so thankful to have found her clinic. My family is now seeing her too. Best acupuncturist and would highly recommend. Thank you for everything Dr. Maryam 🙂

Dr Maryam, Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to learn from you in this [Boost Your Immune System] program. I am delighted about the recipes and the videos of the acupressure techniques and I took notes! I am impressed with all that I have learned and your manner is delightful. Thank you so much for all your work and kindnesses to the community.

Maryam is a warm and caring practitioner, she reviews all aspects of your health and comes up with a treatment plan that truly helps you feel your best. She has helped me with stress management and hormone balancing and I couldn't be happier as both a patient and a fellow health care practitioner. Thank you Maryam!

Thank you Dr. Maryam for such an informative [Boost Your Immune System] course. My favourite part, which I have been implementing in my daily routine, is doing the self therapy of massaging the acupuncture points you showed on myself. I find doing those points before bed help me even sleep so much better. I really appreciate your providing us with all these practical resources to improve our lives. Thank you.

I came to Dr. Maryam in a hopeless state. The Canadian healthcare system had failed me. I had been on hormonal birth control for 22 years and was recently diagnosed with fibroids. I was having trouble with extreme bloating, heavy long period bleeds, nutrient absorption, headaches, anxiety and a general feeling of unwell. My goal was to get off the birth control and take back my health. I was almost in tears when I first came to see Dr. M but she calmly told me, we can work on all of this. 1) Her business location is beautiful, it is warm, comfortable and welcoming 2) She will really listen to you and try to get to the root of the problem and treat the cause, not just throw pills at you 3) drink the herbal teas she prescribes 4) the acupuncture is beyond relaxing 2 months of regularly seeing Dr. M and I have gotten off of birth control and had my first period, and it was very much improved. She says we still have work to do to relieve other symptoms but I have drastically improved. 10 out of 10 would recommend her.

"Dear Dr. Maryam, Thank you for your immunity course. I was so impressed with the material you presented and with the quality of your presentation. I hadn't expected the videos to be so comprehensive, offering so much".

Dr. Mahanian is a caring, kind and compassionate practitioner. My first appointment with her was during the first trimester of my pregnancy, I immediately felt that I could trust her with my health goals and I felt truly listened to. After each acupuncture appointment, I feel incredibly relaxed and calm even after a busy work day. I have also been able to have deeper and more restful sleeps immediately following my appointments. I would highly recommend her!

Dr. Maryam is an amazing, wonderful, warm, caring, compassionate Doctor. She takes time to listen and always makes helpful recommendations. She is dedicated and extremely knowledgeable. She has treated me for a number of different concerns over the years and under her care, the outcomes have all been successful. She has a gentle approach to inserting needles that is as relaxing as it is effective. Her clinic is peaceful and soothing and I always feel wonderful after my appointments. I feel very fortunate be under her care and highly recommend her.

I highly recommend Dr Maryam. She's kind, considerate and her treatments were very effective for my symptoms.

After working with other acupuncturists, I was very happy to find Dr. Mahanian. She demonstrates a vast understanding of TCM and has a compassionate & gentle bedside manner. She's the best!

Dr. Maryam is extremely intellegent and excellent in her practice. I have been seeing her for months now. Originally I went in for an old shoulder injury that we worked on, followed by general work for pregnancy. She helped me with my "growing pains" of my body changing while this baby grows and also morning sickness! She is a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend her.

I have been seeing Dr. Maryam for the last ten years for whatever health issues arise. She has been amazing with healing skin issues and hormone balancing. I look forward to my sessions = they are deeply deeply relaxing and Dr. Maryam herself is so lovely and knowledgeable. I have come to see acupuncture as a part of preventive care that balances mood and body. Words do not do justice to the reliable and deep healing I have received over the years from Dr. Maryam. You are in amazing hands with her!!

I don’t have enough words to thank Dr. Mahanian for her care and treatment. I’ve visited Dr. Mahanian for different reasons, and have always had a positive result after having acupuncture done and also after using the herbal medicines she has recommended. She’s a very kind and dedicated doctor. I would say the best acupuncturist we have in Deep Cove!

Dr. Maryam has been my acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine doctor for over twelve years. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough! I have found her treatments consistently effective, and have benefited from her recommendations and deep knowledge of Chinese Medicine. Her kindness and care are always present, and she creates a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

The space is quite comfortable, serene and spa-like. Dr. Maryam was so intent in healing my tennis elbow efficiently within a few a weeks. She was knowledgeable and explained how the treatments would help me. Not only was she professional but very personable as well. Would highly recommend her.

Dr. Maryam is one of the most knowledgable, empathetic and trustworthy doctors I have met. She truly cares about any concerns I have and offers great insight into options using acupuncture and/or traditional Chinese medicines. I have even sent my parents to see her. I would recommend Dr. Maryam to all my friends and family without hesitation.

I had the most amazing experience with Dr. Maryam! I am usually terrified of needles but she was so great that I barely noticed them and then the effect afterwards, wow! I felt so relaxed and zen, made it better than a spa visit!!

“Highly Recommend Dr Maryam” I have been seeing Dr Maryam for over 5 years ...(cosmetic acupuncture to assist with aging process). I am very pleased with the experience and results. Overall great experience !!!

Dr Mahanian is amazing. She is full of warmth and yet very professional. I have been suffering from back pains since the start of my second trimester. I have been doing physio and massage therapy regularly but the pain persists. After seeing Dr Mahanian twice, the pain went away! Amazing! I will continue seeing her until the end of my pregnancy for optimal results. Highly recommend her!

From the minute I walked into Dr. Maryam’s office, I felt it in my heart that I was in the best care. I have been so lucky to have been her patient for the last three years. Her kind heart and caring nature combined with her extensive experience as a TCM Doctor has helped me with numerous conditions such as vertigo, asthma, sinusitis to female hormonal fluctuations and even the common cold. She carries and prescribes the highest quality of Chinese Herbs and I love how her herbs have now taken over my medicine cabinets and I no longer have too many conventional meds left. Thanks to Dr. Maryam, my overall health and wellness has improved immensely. Feeling blessed and forever grateful for all that she’s done for me.

I started seeing Dr. Maryam when I was going thought menopause. I noticed a big change after just a couple of treatments. She helped me immensely by treating all of my symptoms. I highly recommend Dr. Maryam

I sought Dr. Mahanian to treat my neck and back ache, and the treatment was so great that I decided to continue with other treatments to improve my quality of life, and they have been working very successfully. She is very patient and skillful and I love her clinic ambience, a treat for my body and mind.

Dr. Maryam Mahanian is a professional who is knowledgeable, thorough and a caring healthcare practitioner who treats more than your symptoms. We are very lucky to have her in our neighborhood.

Dr. Maryam is compassionate, knowledgable and extremely gentle in her approach. I have greatly enjoyed and benefitted from her acupuncture and herbal prescriptions. I love referring to Dr. Maryam, and highly recommend her services!

Amazing Doctor! Dr. Maryam is a kind, wonderful, caring and compassionate doctor. She is patient, thorough and a great listener. She has helped me with a myriad of issues over the years and her treatments have always given me tremendous relief and a greater sense of wellbeing. I thank my lucky stars to be in the care of such an exceptional highly skilled acupuncturist. I look forward to my visits and feel very blessed and grateful to have her as my Doctor. I highly recommend her.

A Wonderful Practitioner! Maryam is a colleague that I go to for acupuncture and also refer patients to when I am away from my own clinic. She has a kind heart, listening ear and great skill with acupuncture needles. I have been seeing her regularly for several years to help maintain great health, relaxed neck & shoulders, improved sleep and digestion. I am so fortunate that our paths crossed and I met this wonder practitioner Maryam.

Dear Dr. Maryam, As always, your treatment was amazing. Two hours after my appointment, and I am starting to feel the signs of ovulation! Thank you so much for all your care and expertise, I am blessed have my health in such good hands.

A Caring Physician Dr. Maryam is a gentle, soft spoken, sincere and dedicated doctor who cares about your well being. After taking copious notes about your physical condition, she suggests a treatment of herbs, acupuncture or cupping depending on what you may be suffering from. Her acupuncture technique is more refined than most and not so aggressive which leaves one at peace with the process. Combined with soft music and gentle aromatic massage leaves one in a state of restful bliss and physical well being.

Successful therapy for tight upper back and neck due to stress Dr. Maryam has taken me from a very bad back and neck situation to healthy after six sessions of acupuncture. I started not even being able to drive properly as I couldn’t do an over the shoulder check to drive. I visited her after doing chiro and physio, both of these helped but acupuncture solved it. It is also so great being at her clinic where peace and harmony in a beautiful setting prevails.

My search for an accomplished DTCM led me to Dr. Mahanian and her peaceful home-based clinic. I was, at the time, experiencing high levels of stress and severe stress-related skin breakouts. Dr. Mahanian used a powerful combination of tools: acupuncture, Chinese herbs and suggestions for simple adjustments to my daily routine to produce dramatic results quickly. The acupuncture treatments created a feeling of instant calm and restfulness which laid the foundation for my path to healing. The comfortable clinic environment and easy conversations I shared with Dr. Mahanian also played an important role. I will confidently go to Dr. Mahanian with any health concern as she is a committed health practitioner who is both professional and caring. She is a gifted listener which allows her to assess (and address) issues effectively and holistically. A visit to this acupuncture and Chinese medicine clinic is pure pleasure.

Hi Dr. Maryam, I want to let you know that I tested this morning and I found out that I am pregnant (!!) First off – THANK YOU!!! Thank you for making time for me, for keeping faith throughout the process, for listening to my worries and validating my feelings, and for being on my team. I have relied so much on your support, and it means the world to me…..with gratitude…

“After one and one half years of trying to conceive, visits to the fertility clinic and a three month stint with an acupuncturist who, in the end was not a good fit for me, I found out about Dr. Mahanian through a friend who spoke very highly of her and her work. From the first visit, I immediately knew she was the person I wanted to work with to help me along this very personal and emotional journey. From our first visit, I felt confident in my choice because of Dr. Mahanian’s calm and reassuring manner, her thorough and unhurried approach and her ability to clearly explain her diagnosis and rationale for treatment in a way that I could understand and that made sense for me. (I should mention that I have a strong belief in Chinese medicine from a previous experience approximately 10 years ago where I was successfully treated with herbs and acupuncture by a Chinese doctor. This was for an entirely different issue; a condition of unexplained, and untreatable by western medicine, extreme joint pain and inflammation in both of my arms and hands. This experience left me thankful for the diagnostic capabilities of western medicine, and the wholistic treatment capabilities of Eastern medicine.) Treatment with Dr. Mahanian for me consisted of, initially a very thorough discussion of my medical history, as well as reviewing my current health, monthly cycles and the overall functioning of my “systems” e.g. digestion, elimination etc. This initial visit was followed by weekly visits where Dr. Mahanian and I would continually review my progress, discuss any changes I was experiencing, and as well I would have acupuncture and receive a new “concoction” of herbs suited to my body’s needs and to the time in my monthly cycle. Through this process I learned that many of the monthly symptoms I had experienced for many years (PMS, depression, severe cramping) could be either lessened or eliminated by Chinese medicine. During the first few months, I noticed changes in my monthly cycles including no more clotting while I was bleeding, less emotional ups and downs before and during my period and less painful periods. I also became aware, through charting my cycle that the treatment was affecting my cycle by making it more “balanced” (my daily temperatures evened out to plot a more “classic” graph pattern; my cycles became much more regular – reduced from a 33 to 36 day cycle to a 28 to 29 day cycle). I was feeling good and was feeling empowered that, while the main focus was conception, most importantly I was improving my overall health and could feel and see the results (as well be thrilled to realize that with a more normal cycle length, this gave me at least one more ovulation opportunity each year!). After about 3 months of treatment I was completely taken aback to learn I was pregnant! I attribute my success to the kind, compassionate and skillful work of Dr. Mahanian, and how we collaborated to improve my health and my chances for successful conception. As I write, I am now 6 and 1/2 months pregnant and thrilled for this opportunity to grow and nurture a new life and bring a new being into this world. As I progress through this journey, I have become very aware of how important it was for me to find a practitioner who, as well as having the necessary knowledge and expertise to address my condition, also has a gentle, personal touch that Dr. Mahanian has, which helped instill in me confidence in myself, that I was doing all I could to promote my health and my chances of becoming pregnant. Thank you Dr. Mahanian for your part in our little miracle”.

I’ve come to see Dr. Mahanian regarding fertility problem. My husband and I had been trying to conceive for quite some time and without success, it started to bother us. We decided to look into alternative medicine thinking if it works it would be a gentler, more conservative way. Dr. Mahanian treated me with acupuncture and prescribed some herbal tea as well as gave me some advice on better lifestyle and diet. Every time I came for the treatments she always made me feel relax and forget about everything else. She is always gentle and took time to explain things and be there to answer my questions. Eventually, because we were so eager to start a family, we tried In Vitro Fertilization. We conceived with the first cycle we tried, thanks to Dr. Mahanian whom helped us prepared my body and hormone level for the IVF treatment. I truly believe that the acupuncture treatments complement the IVF treatment and made things went smoothly. The day that I was having my embryo transfer back into my uterus was a busy Saturday which Dr. Mahanian did try to change her schedule around and accommodate me to be able to come in and get the acupuncture done before and right after the embryo transfer. (This was shown in several researches to increase the success rate of embryo implantation.) Not only the acupuncture did help us to succeed in our pregnancy, it helped me relax and being able to cope with nervousness on such a big day! After we’ve found out that we are finally pregnant, I still went back for acupuncture treatment through my first trimester. And I have an easy, wonderful pregnancy, with minimal morning sickness and discomfort. I believe acupuncture did balanced out my overall wellbeing. And Dr. Mahanian made me feel at ease with the treatment. It was always a pleasure to come see her and just listen to her soothing music and relax (or most of the time fell asleep) until the session was done. Plus the staffs were all very helpful. Thank you again Dr. Mahanian.

The best results! I have been to a few different acupuncturists and have never had the results like I do with Dr. Mahanian. I suffer from chronic headaches and I have significant improvements after my acupuncture sessions over the years. Dr. Mahanian has a true passion for what she does and her experience goes unmatched. I would highly recommend her for anyone in need.

Thank you so much for treating me so successfully for my perimenopausal symptoms. The absence of hot flashes, headaches and sleep problems has definitely improved my quality of life! I felt better pretty much immediately! I have not had a hot flash since and highly recommend your treatments!

I have been going to Dr. Mahanian for acupuncture sessions for many months, and it has been a great experience. Not only does the treatment work (both facial and others) but it is a pleasure as well. She is extremely professional and the whole experience is really wonderful–needles and all!

“I have been receiving acupuncture from Dr. Mahanian for about 6 months now – approximately twice per month. The reasons for my treatment are strictly preventative / health promotion related, as i do not currently have any acute or chronic health issues. I have found Dr. Mahanian’s personal approach to her practice to be very compassionate and therapeutic in itself. The acupuncture therapy, although a “foreign” sensation at first, has never hurt – in fact, on the contrary, i look forward to each session as they seem to become increasingly more relaxing and enjoyable. I do not suffer from any neuro / vascular health issues but i have noticed improvements in my circulation and sensation, especially to my legs and arms – therefore, I am sure that anyone suffering from peripheral vascular disease or any sort of neuropathy would greatly benefit from these treatments. Although my baseline concentration and stress levels are usually “healthy”, I have noticed improvements in these areas with the acupuncture. I am more relaxed in general and have also noticed an improvement in my concentration level. Although a “healthy” person prior to commencing acupuncture, I have noticed marked increases in the functioning of my peripheral nervous system, circulation, mood, and concentration level. Therefore, I would recommend to anyone to try acupuncture therapy, by itself or as a complement to other therapies – for acute or chronic ailments, or for health promotion reasons. Although I noticed the benefits of the treatment immediately, they seem to be getting better and better each time. I recommend at least a few months of therapy before evaluating its efficacy, as its therapeutic effect seems to be cumulative in nature.”

“I first sought out acupuncture after becoming afflicted with facial eczema. My face hurt, especially the mouth area and forehead. Facial expressions, even chewing food was painful. Any movement felt terrible. My skin was raw and burning and infections became a concern of mine because the skin was so inflamed. I had to retreat from work, social gatherings and actually many things I enjoy. Although I have always looked to natural therapies in the past, I avoided acupuncture due to my dislike of needles. I overcame that idea after my first treatment. There is no pain or discomfort in receiving the acu-needle. Maryam instructs on breathing as the needles are inserted and a breathing rhythm is established that is deep and relaxing. Acupuncture has helped me to reconnect with myself. It stimulates an energy that feels fluid, free from the memory of the problem. The mind and body are refreshed in a manner that allows healing to happen and in conjunction with the Chinese Herbal Medicine, balance is restored. One takes an active role in the process. Maryam is a keen professional who listens, looks, and guides the healing process. She is a very knowledgeable, sensitive, trustworthy healer and her treatments worked very well for me. Now I go occasionally to maintain and nurture balance within and I like the treatments, even the herbs. I have recommended this to family and friends. Thank-you Maryam.” Sincerely Grateful,

“Dr. Mahanian was very helpful in treating my problem with clammy hands. Her treatments have also improved my overall health and wellness. As a result, my confidence, both in professional and social settings, has improved significantly”.

“For years, I had been plagued with digestive troubles, joint pain, and acne – if you would believe it – all before the age of 24. No matter what the doctors prescribed, my problems persisted, if not worsened, only because my doctors just did not know what to do. When Dr. Mahanian began treating me, I was shocked to find out that according to Traditional Chinese Medicine, all of my ailments were related! And upon treatments with herbs and acupuncture, as well as Dr. Mahanian’s diet advice, everything, and I mean EVERYTHING has been relieved. I don’t even know what to complain about anymore! I trust a science that has been around for thousands of years more than a science that has only been around for decades, and that is Traditional Chinese Medicine.”

“I have been suffering with migraines for about 20 years. Sometimes the migraines are so debilitating that I miss work. I find that advil takes sometimes a whole day to take effect and am apprehensive of taking stronger pain killers as I am aware of the potential side effects. I have recently started getting acupuncture and chinese herbs from Dr. Mahanian and have found it to be so helpful. Being on the herbal medicine, I find that I don’t get the migraines as often anymore and it has benefitted my overall energy level and health as well. The acupuncture is quite amazing in that it can actually immediately take the tightness and pain away during a migraine attack. I now encourage my family and friends to try acupuncture & chinese medicine too”.

“Currently I am 27 years old and have been struggling with acne for 15 years. Besides my family doctor, I had gone to several dermatologists who had perscribed all sorts of drugs ranging from birth control to antibiotics. The results left no permanent solution to my problem, and had only done physical harm internally. It was not until I had pursued Chinese Medicine combined with acupuncture, that I had seen amazing improvement and consistent results with my acne. The treatments had even erased harsh scars that I might have used laser skin treatment for. Energy levels, better sleeping patterns, and overall health were additional results to the treatment as well. I have, and highly recommend the approach of Chinese medicine and acupuncture for skin treatment. “

Dear Dr. Maryam, You are the best! I feel like a different person today!!! No stress at all and happy!

Dr. Mahanian is the best acupuncturist in the Greater Vancouver area. I badly injured my wrist & consequently suffered from severe pain & swelling to a point that I could barely move my hand. Dr. Mahanian healed my wrist & lower arm in 3 sessions within just over a week. She is the most knowledgable, experienced and friendly therapist I have ever been to. I have been to other acupuncturists but none of their treatments were even remotely as effective as Dr. Mahanian’s. I would gladly refer her to anyone.

Acupuncture Works! I have chronic back issues and visit Dr. Maryam on a regular basis for therapy. She is extremely personable, caring and dedicated. Her technique is simply amazing. She is always able to locate the knots, pinched nerves or spasms in my back to relieve pain or stiffness, usually within one or two sessions.

“I had been struggling with frequent breakouts of acne for many years and my scars would take such a long time to heal. I didn’t think my skin would ever become clear. I didn’t want to take medications like accutane because of all of the scary side effects so I decided to try the natural route. I was introduced to Chinese Medicine by a friend who had had a similar acne problem. Dr. Mahanian prescribed a Chinese herbal formula and advised me in detail on my diet. Within 3 days I noticed my scars were healing and new breakouts weren’t coming on. I stayed on the herbs for 2 weeks and kept up with my diet and my skin showed a dramatic improvement. Now I have people telling me that I have “beautiful skin”…it feels great!”

“Although I am an esthetician with a lot of experience in skin care, no matter what products I would try, my skin never felt smooth and was constantly covered in small and large blemishes. I was introduced to Chinese Medicine by a friend who had had a similar acne problem. Dr. Maryam told me that although keeping the skin clean and using good products was important, I would also need to treat my body internally. It took only 4 days of the Chinese herbs for me and my friends and co-workers to start noticing the improvement in the blemish scars and the texture of my skin!”

“Dr. Mahanian, DTCM RAc, provided me with excellent patient care in the form of acupuncture for muscle injury and pain, herbs for organ and blood disorder, and massage for both. All remedies were very effective and rapidly brought relief where all other modalities of medicine had failed. Dr. Mahanian comes highly recommended — after five years of ill health, I feel significantly better, thanks to the healing she has provided.”

“I was suffering from muscle aches and extreme fatigue for over a year due to food allergies. Then I started Acupuncture treatments and Chinese Herbal Medicine and within a month I noticed great improvement with my muscles and fatigue. I felt a lot more energy, and along with a healthier diet was able to get back to my regular lifestyle that I had before these health problems started. Today, I have no muscle aches and fatigue, as well I have overcome many of my food allergies and am able to eat more regularly.”

“When I was 25 years old, I was diagnosed with testicular cancer. The doctors prescribed a very aggressive chemotherapy regimen. I was scared when they told me about the symptoms that I would experience and the many drugs that I would need to take to relieve these symptoms (which weren’t without side effects of their own). A certain anti-nausea drug caused me to have anxiety, sleeplessness, and lockjaw to name a few. The only relief I had was with the treatments I received from Dr. Mahanian. When my symptoms were at their worst right after a dose of chemotherapy, Dr. Mahanian inserted the acupuncture needles and almost immediately my symptoms of nausea, anxiety, and restlessness were relieved and I was actually able to sleep at night. Before this, I had little experience with acupuncture and Chinese medicine, but now I strongly believe that it should be included in all cancer therapies.”

“Acupuncture has helped me tremendously with my ability to get through my days comfortably as I get it done to reduce the pain I have associated with my menstrual cycle. In the past, I got severe cramps and wouldn’t be able to function normally unless I took pharmaceutical drugs such as Naproxen (an anti-inflammatory), or large amounts of Ibuprofen. I also had a problem with my lower back & some days wouldn’t be able to stand up properly because of the pain in one of my lower vertebrae. After getting a few treatments of acupuncture along with some acupressure massage, the pain has completely disappeared. Sometimes from standing all day at my job, I get pain in my upper back between my shoulder blades. Every once in awhile, I’ll go in and get a treatment with needles in that area with some massage & I’ll feel great for weeks after with no complications. I have found that the treatments along with the herbs have helped me feel more alert & my energy has increased to a healthy level. I no longer feel as tired as I used to. I also found that if I’m feeling stressed during the week, acupuncture is a really great way to alleviate the stress associated with everyday life.”

Dr, Maryam Mahanian is a people person who demonstrates the virtues of genuine caring, understanding, patience, careful listening, investigation and consideration for me as a patient. It is a rare commodity today to find those qualities today. She is also a gentle, soft spoken, sincere and dedicated doctor who cares about your well being. After taking copious notes about your physical condition, she suggests a treatment of Herbs, Acupuncture or Cupping depending on what you may be suffering from. Her acupuncture technique is more refined than most and not so aggressive which leaves one at peace with the process. Combined with soft music and gentle aromatic massage leaves one in state of restful bliss and physical well being.

Thank you Dr for your time and support, i had felt very good after the Acupuncture session, all recharged and im truly happy that i found you, it is precious for any mother to have a good Dr for difficult time and have the support to maintain a good health!

Dr. Mahanian is very gentle and her extensive knowledge about my condition was very comforting. As for the cosmetic acupuncture, I'm very excited to be trying it since I'm not a fan of Botox, so far I'm half way through my treatment plan and I am already notice tightening of my skin and increased hydration and elasticity. Btw her treatment rooms are very relaxing and I end up having a much needed nap while I am there 😋Thank you Dr. M. Can't wait till my next treatment.

I've had a consultation with her and she's really nice and knowledgable. The acupuncture was surprisingly relaxing (and painless). She made good recommendations on how to heal my situation; ideas that other places/people hadn't thought of/recommended. I'd recommend her.

I have been patient of Dr. Mahanian for many years. She is very understanding, extremely compassionate and patient and puts her finger right on the pulse of the problem. I have no doubt of her expertise.

Dr. Mahanian worked with me on a very challenging tennis elbow injury late last Fall. I had tried everything to no avail. She told me she could likely fix my injury but that it would take ten sessions. As I was heading down to Palm Springs for the Winter (to play tennis) we had a hard time fitting all the treatments in and only had eight treatments before I left. When I arrived in the Desert the injury had been repaired and I no longer had pain. Amazing!

Dr Mahanian is amazing. She is full of warmth and yet very professional. I have been suffering from back pains since the start of my second trimester. I have been doing physio and massage therapy regularly but the pain persists. After seeing Dr Mahanian twice, the pain went away! Amazing! I will continue seeing her until the end of my pregnancy for optimal results. Highly recommend her!

Suffering from an aching arm, I've gone to chiro, physio , massage nothing worked until Dr Maryam!!!!!! Thank you Dr 🙂 [Also] Perfect to address my concern/ pain and condition. She was caring, showed empathy and concern. I have recommended her now to my spouse and I will be going again, regularly.

My first visit was wonderful. Dr. Maryam took time to get to know me- it was like speaking with a friend. I felt heard and understood. My session was very relaxing and I look forward to the healing journey ahead!

Dr. Mahanian was very professional and very thorough. My first session went very well and very relaxing. I am looking forward to my follow-up visits.

Dr Maryam was able to offer me a diagnose through some quick and simple questions about me that other traditional doctors couldn’t do it. I can’t wait to have more acupuncture in her peaceful and beautiful clinic.

Dr Mahanian is a lovely, kind, professional, skilled practitioner of acupuncture/Chinese medicine. I’ve had a great experience with excellent results that matched my expectations for cosmetic acupuncture. I highly recommend her services.

Very knowledgeable and professional in her practice! She combines her treatment with chinese herbs which I personally appreciate. She is following up between treatment and shows real interest for your health. I certainly recommend her!

Dr. Maryam is kind, considerate and has great compassion. She takes the time to listen deeply...to really hear what you are saying. She has helped me with my health issues and I highly recommend her for acupuncture and TCM.

My experience with Dr. Maryam has been amazing! I highly recommend her to anyone who is considering acupuncture or Chinese Medicine.

Dr Maryam has a very calming positive energy. She is a very gifted and intuitive TCM doctor. She has an extensive knowledge of women’s health. She has helped me so much by alleviating the extreme PMS symptoms that I have been suffering with for years, through her acupuncture treatments and prescribed Chinese herbs. Her acupuncture technique is very gentle, yet effective. Her home based clinic is emaculate and professional, while also being very warm, welcoming and relaxing. Very zen.

I first saw Dr. Mahanian 15 years ago after going to many doctors and naturopaths for health issues no one was able to help with. After couple months of treatments and chinese medicine I started to feel much better and my symptoms eventually went away. I recently started using the chinese medicine again after many years, and my symptoms improved in a matter of days. Dr. Mahanian is very knowledgeable and always easy to talk to, I prefer to drive an hour to see her then someone closer to home.

I've seen Dr. Mahanian a number of times over the past decade, and have always had a really positive experience with impressive results. I first saw her for a skin condition that persisted for years, and none of the treatments given to me by my family doctor or my dermatologist helped at all. Once I started the herbs prescribed by Dr. Mahanian, it immediately began to clear and was completely normal within a month! She really listens and seems to care greatly about the wellbeing of her patients.

Dr. Mahanian runs a wonderfulyl clean,calm environment when having acupuncture. She is very thorough in her history taking and is interested in all aspects of your health. The treatments have improved my back substantially and I am very glad I have her as one of my care professionals.

Dr. Maryam has a very nice, clean, professional home based business. Better than many medical offices I have been too. Very well set up. She is open, communicative, friendly and attentive. This is my first time with accupunture and I have never felt as relaxed and at peace as I do after the treatments.

Dr. Mahanian is an excellent acupuncturist and very knowledgeable about Chinese medicine. She is a very good listener and explains everything. I was very impressed by the service I received.

Dr. Mahanian is an excellent DTCM. She is patient and a good listener. She is very knowledgeable and clearly explains her treatment plan. Her clinic was very comfortable and relaxing. I had a wonderful experience.

I started seeing Dr. Mahanian about a year ago and she has helped me tremendously with managing stress among other things! She is extremely kind, patient and most importantly she knows what she is doing! I fully recommend her! I have to admit at the beginning I wanted only the oral treatment, because I was a bit scared about the acupuncture . However, after talking to Dr. Mahanian and listening to all the process, explained in detail, she gave me so much confidence that I tried it& now I love it

Dr. Mahanian is an incredible doctor - she's patient, kind, and extremely knowledgable. Maryam has helped me with digestion, stress, psoriasis, fertility, pregnancy and birth. I can't recommend her highly enough!

I recently had an appointment with Dr. Maryam and it was a very positive experience! She was very professional, great bedside manner, and excellent needle skills as I didn't even feel them going in! I felt very relaxed at the end of the session and overall felt like I was heading towards better health!

Dr Mahanian is a knowledgable resource for Chinese Medicine and nutrition. Dr.Mahanian is personable and attentive. After seeing her for almost 3 years now its really improved my menstrual irregularities and the experience is always so relaxing for me.

Dr. Mahanian is a great physician! Although it's only been a couple sessions, she made me feel very welcome and took the time to actually get to know me and my condition. She is very personable, with a calming presence that reassured me I was in good hands!

Maryam is a collegue that I go to for acupuncture and also refer patients to when I am away from my own clinic. She has a kind heart, listening ear and great skill with acupuncture needles. I have been seeing her regularly for several years to help maintain great health, relaxed neck & shoulders, improved sleep and digestion. I am so fortunate that our paths crossed and I met this wonder practitioner Maryam!

I have been to a few different acupuncturists and have never had the results like I do with Dr. Mahanian. I suffer from chronic headaches and I have significant improvements after my acupuncture sessions over the years. Dr. Mahanian has a true passion for what she does and her experience goes unmatched. I would highly recommend her for anyone in need.

Dr. Mahanian is the best acupuncturist in the Greater Vancouver area. I badly injured my wrist & consequently suffered from severe pain & swelling to a point that I could barely move my hand. Dr. Mahanian healed my wrist & lower arm in 3 sessions within just over a week. She is the most knowledgeable, experienced & friendly therapist I have ever been to. I have been to other acupuncturists but none of their treatments were even remotely as effective as Dr. Mahanian's. I would gladly refer anyone

I have chronic back issues and visit Dr. Mahanian on a regular basis for therapy. She is extremely personable, caring and dedicated. Her technique is simply amazing. She is always able to locate the knots, pinched nerves or spasms in my back to relieve pain or stiffness, usually within one or two sessions.

Dr. Mahanian has taken me from a very bad back and neck situation to healthy after six sessions of acupuncture. I started not even being able to drive properly as I couldnt do an over the shoulder check to drive. I visited her after doing Chiro and Physio, both of these helped but Acupuncture solved it. It is also so great being at her clinic where peace and harmony in a beautiful setting prevails.
