GET UPDATES FROM Priya Advani
She has been listed as a practitioner in Suzanne Somers' book "Knockout." She is a licensed acupuncturist and respected healer in Los Angeles.

Ever since I was a child, I have dreamed of helping people. With a turn of events in my life, I ended up attending business school at Northern Illinois University and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing.

I spent the next decade working for a major telecommunications company as a Corporate Account Executive. Although I had a successful career, the lack of fulfillment led me to find a deeper meaning in my life.

My passion to help others once again emerged.This desire drove me to search for a greater awareness of purpose. It was around this time that I bumped into an old friend who I hadn’t seen in over two years. I invited him and his mother to a dinner party I was hosting. During a conversation with his mother, I discovered that she had studied Traditional Chinese Medicine in China. She strongly encouraged me to investigate this career path. Soon after our meeting, I began the Master’s program at Emperor’s College of Traditional Oriental Medicine in Santa Monica, California.

I spent the next five years not only learning about acupuncture points, meridian theory, herbal formulas and clinical medicine, but also learning about myself.

Through my Qi Gong and Meditation practice I experienced the benefit of balance and harmony as well as the importance of connecting mind, body and spirit. I was editor of Emperor College's newsletter, “Yi Dao" and I had the privilege to serve as the President of our student body my final year. I graduated Magna Cum Laude. These proved to be the most life changing years I had ever experienced.

My goal is to bring healing and wellness into the lives of all my patients. I look forward to serving you.

I spent the past month speaking to random people everywhere that I went. I asked all of them the same question, "Do you know what GMO stands for and what it is?" While some people either knew what it was or at least had heard of it, I was surprised...

At a seminar that I recently spoke at, I asked this question, "How many of you either suffer from or know someone that has some type of chronic illness, whether itʼs Type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia or hypertension?" Not surprisingly, most of the hands in the room went up.

We...
