  I love Dr. Karma.  Definitely helped me heal my liver and gallbladder and kidneys after the hospital released me and told me I was fine.  He educates his patients and is a genuine healer.  I am so thankful I got the chance to work with him.

  I highly recommend Dr. Karma. I was diagnosed with endometriosis and was experiencing severe pain, nausea, fatigue and dizziness. Through acupuncture and herbal supplements my symptoms have greatly improved. Dr. Karma is a gifted doctor. After each treatment, without fail, I leave in a state of total relaxation and well-being. It was also interesting to learn there is an alternative to PlanB contraception in the form of herbal supplement Picosine. My overall health has improved immensely and I am extremely grateful.

  My girlfriend came in here New Year's Day due to a pretty intense pinched nerve in her neck. Although Dr Karma's office was a bit abnormal, the results were pretty incredible. After one session her nerve was fixed and she felt good for the first time in months. Highly, highly recommended.

  I googled Santa Monica acupuncturists   my Rheumatologist had been telling me  everything I described to her  sounds energy related and does not fit into a western med model.  It was on the heels of  2 months   in and out of the er with variant symptoms. I really was fighting to survive. Sometimes I would stop breathing for long bits of time.  The er didnt help they didn't know what to do.  I had a wave of dizziness spinning ,difficulty  to talk ,difficulty breathing and horrible nerve pain and burning and spasms in my whole spine.
 When I began reading  about Karma Holistic Center a RAY OF GOLDEN SUN directed at my heart and warmed it. I have had mystical experiences before and I have allowed myself to be guided by them in the past with much delight and success.  I  called right away and told him my suffering he respected me and  took me seriously and  saw me right away even though it was a holiday.
Since I made the call to Dr Karma my reality  has been like the gradual cessation   of a horrible storm of  pain and suffering.
He has identified the problem  general toxicity of the body I have been able to minimize the drugs his herbs, massage  and accupuncture.
He has also given me the best council   on my   relationships, life dreams and direction. I have had over thirty years of council.
He is knowledgeable about Western Med and Holistic and alternative massage/ energy healing. He has given me hope and his demeanor is warm and healing.
I knew the moment we met we had a destiny and it was a bright one. I had been looking for help like this for a long time. I am enjoying our healing together and he has a bright vision for me which means the world to me. i researched one of the medications I had been on all of those preceding years and it can make you sick and crazy.  I am investing in  healing and my spiritual destiny ibeILIEve  is to not suffer anymore. DR Karma is helping me make that a reality for me.

  I came to Dr. Karma after being diagnosed with severe anxiety. I had seen 4 doctors who all told me to take Zoloft- as this was the only way I was going to get better. I decided this was not the route I wanted to take. Thankfully, I found Dr. Karma on Yelp. His treatments have made a huge difference for me. From day 1- I started to feel a bit more like myself again. It's been 4 months now- and I feel SO much better. I went from severe insomnia to restful sleep at night. From panic attacks to enjoying a happy, normal life. I did not take the Zoloft. I'm taking Dr. Karma's herbal supplements instead. Some of which are not at all pleasant tasting, but the results are truly worth it. My boyfriend saw how much the treatments have done for me and is a patient now as well. I can not recommend Dr. Karma enough!

  There are some things in life that are truly life changing and inspiring. Dr. Karmacharya is nothing short of that. His caring approach, extensive knowledge of the mind and body and willing to truly help others in more than just acupuncture is a lifesaver. I initially came to Dr. Karma because of overthinking and being able not to focus in life do to some personal situations i went through last year. From the beginning he truly takes his time to listen and not only help assist with healing the body but the mind as well, which is an important part to ones overall health. I stuck and trusted the acupuncture sessions which relieved  blockages of energy in the body. I didn't know what to expect or how soon to see result but over the course of the following days weeks Ive noticed a huge improvement, almost a body high full of good energy, positivity, something i can't truly explain.  It sad the way the health care system is here in The US, it came down to the point where i first come to Dr. Karma  before my primary  doctor, as he treats the root solution and not just prescribes medicine. He also makes his own natural remedies which have assisted in self healing. Truly recommend him to anyone. Thank you  Dr. Karma.

  This was my first experience with acupuncture and holistic healing ever. Although my initial response was a bit hesitant,  I continued to go through with it  because no one else could help me. Im a 30 year old vibrant young woman, whom has been dealing with debilating symptoms for the past 4 months. I've visited the ER nearly 20 times this year alone. Ive seen about 15 different specialist cardoligist, neurologist, rheumotoligist, severel general practioners and on and on. No one was able to or willing to help me, i was giving anti-depressents and shoved out the door.
  Upon meeting Mr. KARMA he was very welcoming and his office which is in a residentual place also had a very welcoming vibe. The moment i sat in his  patient chair he began to listen with detail of all my problems and frustrations, giving his thoughts and advice as well.  He then laid his hands on my pulse and was able to detect issues and pains i had going on in my body that i didnt explain to him as of yet ( that absolutely wowed me). He was also able to tell me i have some form of fibromyalgia, which no doctor has been willing to do. As we proceeded with the session he was very gentle making sure i was comfortable at all times. Immediately after i felt a sense of rejuvination and good energy. He gave me healing medicines according to my needs.  It was a great first experience. I will be writting back  soon about the effects of the medicines, once ive been using them long enough. However, i highly recommend him.

  I felt that I contracted Covid19 on December 27, 2020. At the beginning my symptoms were of a regular flu. After my symptoms worsened, I went fir a Covid test. On January 5,2021, I tested positive. I had severe migraine headaches, difficulty breathing and also severe fatigue. I called Dr. Karma, and he prescribed Cluster Antiopyretic and Hepacure, which my son picked up from his office. I took the this herbal medicine as directed. On January 17, 2021, I retested, and came out positive (which is what the CDC) said could happen.  I continued taking the Cluster Antipyretic and the Hepacure. My symptoms improved immensely. The fatigue was now just a "tiredness".  My breathing had improved and my migraines finally went away.  I retested in February 14, 2021 and tested Negative fir the first time.  Thank you Dr. Karma for a healthier solution, instead of the chemicals which cause damage to my organism.

  A bit pricy, but as I am a firm believer that health is wealth and without your health you have nothing, I was willing to cough up the change. In retrospect, the price that Dr Karma charges is very slight for the value he delivers in his practice; he's had decades of valuable and worldly experience, he is very knowledgeable and insightful on the intricacies of the human body and what fundamentally caters to its smooth functioning. Don't expect to come in with out having to alter your diet and discontinue eating  the things we all know better than to consume (I had to look critically at my sugar addiction, and kick the habit) too much of if you sincerely want long lasting results. He is trustworthy and honest and delivers what I see as consistently great work. Definitely the best functional medicine doctor on the west side that I've met!

  Hello Everyone!!!! I was diagnosed with Mild/Moderate Anxiety/Depression (Lexapro, Celexa and Prozac were a "NO" for me when my MD offered it). I also have sciatica pain since my pregnancy. My doctor said the sciatica pain would go away after giving birth since my son would no longer be leaning towards that part of my body (but it didn't and Neurontin and Flexeril were also a "NO" for me). I started going with Dr. K about 4 months ago. I can honestly say that my sciatica pain has improved tremendously. Also, his "Anxlyse" drops have helped me with my anxiety and depression. I would totally recommend Dr. K to everyone.

Dr. Karma is an excellent acupuncturist and I will recommend him to all my; friends and relatives. He took the time to hear my health problems and examined me with precision. Also his needles and the way he inserts them are absolutely painless. I’ve had neck, head and back pain. Also, I have experienced itchiness and extreme fatigue. I take HepaCtn which takes care of all these problems coupled with the acupuncture. Further, it also has helped with weight loss. With regards to all who suffer from the common cold, Dr. Karma’s CapaCtn is excellent for acting as a nasal decongestant, sniffling and flu-like symptoms.

In my early teen years I began to have digestion issues. Eventually it led to constant colds and sinus infections until I started developing signs of mono. I was exhausted and constantly felt weak, dizzy with trouble concentrating. I had an irregular cycle and my mood swings were becoming worse and worse. I was quickly falling into a state of depression. My eating habits were also affected. I no longer had an appetite for food because I couldn’t digest anything properly. My face was pale and I felt constantly bloated. I had dark circles permanently engraved under my eyes and my eyes had sunk deep into my head. I never had any acne problems but now I had broken out. Worst of all I had trouble sleeping because I was constantly dealing with nightmares. Not only was I changing physically but emotionally as well. I had negative thoughts constantly. I could no longer control my emotions as I would cry instantly for no reason. As an elite athlete [...]

Dear Dr. Karma, I wish to express my extreme gratitude for your therapy. Considering the fact that I came to you with Fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, insomnia, and severe immune system and Lung Congestion problems for over 10 years; and tendon tears in my hand and hip for 6 years, it is amazing all that you have done for me. I now have enough energy to do all my old activities and more. My skin is glowing and I feel very healthy inside and out. My musculature is without pain – to be out of pain is blessed! Your holistic SRT formula for the immune system and Lung Congestion formula (CapaCtn) have amazed me. They have made a true difference in my cardiovascular strength and fortitude. I feel like life is beginning again. Thank you again for such good care
