At our clinic, we offer our patients several options and leave it to them to choose the services that resonate most with their belief system. Some of the services provided are:
ACUPUNCTURE
Ear acupuncture is a powerful means of treating several of the body’s pathologies. Unlike whole-body acupuncture, with Ear Acupuncture, Patients usually go home with tiny ear needles (or seeds/magnets). This results in more sustained relief and also cuts down the number of office visits for the Patient. Because the needles are usually less than a millimeter long, most Patients don’t even feel them. However, we can treat different ear points with painless microcurrents using FDA-approved devices for those who don’t like needles.
SUPPLEMENTS/ BOTANICALS/ ESSENTIAL OILS
At Buddha’s Prescription Clinic, our goal is always to unlock the Body’s innate healing capacity and minimize the dependence on an external Provider to achieve this goal. To facilitate this, we sometimes recommend prescription-quality supplements, Botanicals, and Essential oils. This combination of Acupuncture and Herbs/ Supplements usually results in faster recovery and fewer visits to our clinic. These recommendations are either based on the wisdom of Ayurveda or the Evidence-based science of the West.
To ensure the highest quality, we only recommend supplements and botanicals from Fullscript or VitaminLab. Fullscript is the largest online wholesale retailer of prescription-grade supplements, while VitaminLab offers customization of supplements. This enables patients to take one personalized supplement instead of multiple supplements containing unnecessary ingredients. Dr. Sharma occasionally prescribes Western medications to interested patients, but he does this on a case-by-case basis. He only recommends these medications if he believes they are safe and beneficial for the patient’s healing process. This approach makes our treatment truly Integrative. It’s important to note that our clinic does not prescribe any controlled substances and is not a replacement for comprehensive Primary and Specialty care services.
HOLISTIC WEIGHT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
Physical health is a crucial component of our holistic approach to medicine, and maintaining a healthy weight is essential for overall well-being. Many individuals struggle to achieve a healthy weight due to the pressures of a stressful lifestyle and a suboptimal diet. Weight gain can result from a variety of factors, and success in addressing it often requires a comprehensive treatment plan that targets all of these elements.
At Buddha’s Prescription, we offer a range of treatment options for our clients, including acupuncture, mind-body modalities, natural supplements, and prescription medications, such as GLP-1s. We empower our clients to select modalities that align with their personal beliefs, and we support them in their choices. Additionally, we offer custom-tailored natural supplements to help mitigate any side effects from prescription medications.
To qualify for prescription medications, individuals must be between 18 and 60 years of age with a BMI of 30 or higher. Those with a BMI over 27 may also qualify if they have at least one weight-related health condition, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes or prediabetes, elevated cholesterol, depression, acid reflux, or age-related arthritis (osteoarthritis). We strive to secure coverage for prescription medications, including GLP-1, by completing all required prior authorization paperwork with the patient’s insurance.

MIND-BODY MEDICINE
UNDISCIPLINED MIND IS OUR WORST ENEMY……….BUDDHA
Mind-body medicine is the most under-recognized healing modality in Western medicine. We have all heard the adage: Healthy Mind, Healthy Body. Yet only a little energy is spent on a provider visit to discuss this. We have all seen how headaches, colds, and flare-ups of illnesses usually arise during stress. While a diseased mind can give rise to a host of chronic diseases, it is equally true that a well-directed mind can bring miraculous health benefits. Although Acupuncture and botanicals are good at optimizing health, our mind’s healing ability is even greater. At Buddha’s Prescription our belief is also that “True Healing can only come from within.” To this end, we ensure that Patients are taught self-healing exercises at every visit so that they can take charge of their health and set off on their journey of realizing their true nature of immeasurable bliss.
