Kudos to Lola and her team! Not only is Lola passionate about her craft and helping people, she is very caring and genuine.
I had the acupuncture needles as well and cupping with electrical stimulation for my shoulder and back. I felt significant relief immediately after my treatment which lasted for several weeks. I was in town visiting otherwise I would definitely return for more sessions! I definitely recommend Luna so don’t hesitate to make an appointment! You will not be disappointed!. You will feel better after your session!

I cannot say enough about Lola and her team. They are fantastic. Kind and generous and terrific at what they do. I’m a 50-yr-old swimmer, which comes with the assorted aches & pains (shoulder / neck / back) that’s a part of being a middle aged athlete. My weekly visits for acupuncture, cupping, and the ozone sauna keep me going, energized and injury-free. Highly recommend!

I have been receiving acupuncture, cupping and ozone insufflation from Lola at Luna Body and Mind for the last several months and I absolutely LOVE her and her team. I am not new to these protocols and I can honestly say that I have never found a more conscious, accomplished and genuinely caring practitioner than Lola. Look no further. I even drive from Hollywood to see her, she is that good.

I am experiencing some incredible healing with Lola and her Accupuncture, cupping with e-stim…I’ve also experienced the ozone, red light sauna and WOW!!! Looking forward to doing more as it cools down some as it’s ultra healing.

Stop what your doing ! and make an appointment! This was my first acupuncture experience and I feel amazing. I’ve been working over time the past few weeks and I have trouble sleeping from the work and stress. My friend recommended me here, I did a quick stress relief acupuncture and a cupping session for my back. Did wonders ! Parking was easy , staff is really friendly and knowledgeable. The space is beautiful and clean I felt very relaxed. Would recommend.

Lola and the entire team are amazing! 🤩 I feel so energized yet relaxed after every appointment. Their facility is clean, safe and the soft music and scents help me stay centered. I’ve been coming to Luna Body and Mind for 6 years now and can honestly say the acupuncture work and the personal health recommendations performed by Lola motivates me to keep coming back.

She is a gifted practitioner that helped my skin look flush and lively while at the same time allowing me to feel relaxed through her acupuncture. My sleep got better and she even threw in some nutrition guidance for me too. She takes a customized approach and also gifted me a lot of free goodies of her custom face oil and more. She is caring and really did beautiful work for my skin!

I have been a dancer and athlete for 40 years, and have had wonderful body work, Luna Body Mind is a new favorite. I found Lila exceptionally warm, knowledgeable and skilled at fire cupping—a disappearing and effective healing form in Chinese Medicine. I paired fire cupping with a sauna / ozone treatment, and feel both de-stressed and revivified. Highly recommend this combo. I will return for acupuncture for sure.

Lola is a true healer. She is present, knowledgeable, gentle and kind. The sanctuary is clean, refreshing and very considerately designed for the customer seeking both mind and body wellness. Before coming here I searched high and low for high quality Accupuncture. Outside of exceptional wellness treatments, the online booking provides me with the flexibility and optionality that supports my lifestyle. I am grateful to have stumbled upon this gem as it adds value to my physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing.

My 82 year old body doesn’t know how i got along before LUNA.
OVER-ACTIVE BLADDER, NEUROPATHY FINGERS AND FEET, BONE ON BONE RIGHT KNEE, STIFF NECK, AND A SUGAR ADDICTION. 10/11/25…Well, I had been suffering with deep body aches in my upper body, neck, shoulders, arms, fingers; and even the backs of my hands, despite a massage and pain pill. After my session with Lola, I forced myself to forego errands and went straight home to rest. I’m finally feeling better! sharon

Have been a patient of Lola’s for quite some time now, and can say she’s is a godsend. Not only she’s very experienced but her bedside manners are the best. She shares her vast knowledge of Chinese medicine with so much grace, patiently explaining every step of the way so I can feel good about it at any given time. Best of all, I feel a real difference after the treatments. Pain level has significantly decreased, and I have been feeling more relaxed.

I had an incredible experience at Luna Body + Mind Acupuncture. They were able to see me so quickly and provided exactly the care I needed. I felt relief almost immediately and truly appreciated their professionalism, warmth, and attentiveness. Thank you so much for helping me so fast — I’m deeply grateful for your kindness and experience.
Very grateful, Saule.

After seeing several doctors about my GI issues and Western medicine had raised its hands in the air- I tried to find an acupuncturist in LA who might be able to help. Lola was a saving grace. I could barely leave the house or get to work when I came to her. I have been seeing her for 18 months now and my GI issues have entirely remitted! She has helped me navigate a multitude of other issues such as difficulties sleeping, stress. I feel comfortable saying she is incredibly gifted provider and able to treat a range of issues with competence.
She is also one of the few providers who uses Moxa in LA which I was first introduced to in NY with significant results. Thank you Lola for all you do.

I am an engineer, and previously skeptical of acupuncture. After some convincing from my partner, I went to Luna to help me work through some work stress. In my first session Luna put me to sleep on the table – safe to say Luna has made me a believer!
Steve L.

Went in for shoulder pain and stress relief and left feeling extremely zen and happy. The staff made me feel welcomed and the whole experience was warming. I highly recommend!

Lola at Luna is an absolute artist – a magic worker. She is compassionate, humble, funny, empathetic, and knows how to make you feel at ease immediately. Somehow the day just turns around the second I’m even driving in for a treatment and I’m in a state of bliss for days afterward. The space is beautiful, the acupuncture beds and heat lamps feel like warm hugs, and the ozone sauna is the key to detoxifying your body and life! Could not recommend Luna B&A more!
Michele N.

Had the best experience at Luna Body and Mind! Came in with lower back pain while visiting LA and Lola recommended cupping and acupuncture. Felt better almost immediately after and almost fully recovered within a couple of days. Lola is so knowledgeable and kind. Highly recommend!

Cupping Therapy FAQs
Fire cupping creates suction that helps decompress tight tissues and fascia, improve local circulation, and bring fresh oxygen and nutrients to the area. It may also help move metabolic byproducts out of congested tissues, which can reduce soreness, stiffness, and muscle tension.
Cupping can leave temporary red, purple, or circular marks where the cups were placed. They are not usually painful and typically fade within a few days to about a week. The color and how long they last can vary depending on the area treated and how your body responds.
That depends on the condition and how your body responds. Some people benefit from occasional sessions, while others may need a short series when pain or muscle tension is more persistent.
