Shohreh was a successful elementary school teacher for several years. Though she loved teaching, ongoing pain caused by her TMJ disorder forced her to quit. Tired of taking strong pain medication and muscle relaxers, Shohreh visited several oral surgeons across California in San Francisco, Santa Monica, and Los Angeles. They all suggested the same treatment-surgery. She decided to try acupuncture before undergoing invasive surgery. Amazingly, after only several treatments, she was able to decrease her pain medications and eventually stop them all together. Surgery was no longer necessary. After experiencing acupuncture’s ability to restore her health through natural methods, Shohreh decided to study acupuncture and herbal medicine. In several years, Shohreh Doustani graduated from the Acupuncture Integrative Medicine College of Berkeley with a Master's degree in Oriental Medicine. She now has her own private practice and treats a wide range of conditions, focusing on pain relief, women’s health, and cancer support. Alongside her own practice, Shohreh has also served as a contract acupuncturist at the Center for Elders Independence and has volunteered her time as an acupuncturist for the Charlotte Maxwel Clinic in Oakland, treating low income women whose lives are challenged by cancer. Believing in the merit of Integrated Medicine, Shohreh has faith that a combination of traditional Oriental and Western medicine will provide a significant opportunity for her patients to actively and joyfully stride on the path to a vibrant and healthy life. Shohreh has undergone Reiki training and is a certified Reiki master. With high esteem, integrity, and compassion, Shohreh is committed to providing her patients with the highest standards of health care. Shohreh lives in the Bay Area with her husband and two daughters. In her free time, Shohreh enjoys reading poetry, rock climbing, hiking, camping, Gluten-free baking, and trying new coffee and tea shops.

I went to Shohreh with a severe backpain. Shohreh is the most friendly, welcoming person I've ever dealt with. She is so warm and professional, and make the whole experience that much better. I was so impressed with the progress I was able to make after visiting her for three sessions. The office is nice and warm and cozy. I didn't have any trouble finding it at all. I will absolutely return. I had an amazing experience, and they were by far the best I've ever seen.
