Dr. Patel is excellent! Her facility is relaxing and clean. She is compassionate and takes time to evaluate her patients and offer tailored treatments for each individual. I came to Mirvana after suffering neck pain. She evaluated my neck and after one treatment, I felt a major difference. I can now rotate my head from side to side without pain. In the past, I went to other acupuncture offices and was disappointed. Though they may not charge a lot for their treatments, they try to upsell you on herbs and other things. I also did not receive the same level of care and attention as I received at Mirvana Acupuncture. Dr. Patel explained that I did not need herbs and quite possibly only needed one treatment for my pain. She is practical and you can tell that she really has a passion for her job. I referred many of my family and friends to her with the same results!
Acupuncture has been part of my fertility journey the last 2.5 years. Dr. Patel supports and encourages my success along the way and has given great guidance on nutrition and supplements that she has utilized in practice. The office environment during acupuncture treatment is calming and zen and the staff is very welcoming and helpful. No need to be intimidated, the needles are small and painless. I highly suggest seeing if acupuncture is a great fit for you. I feel it is totally worth the investment!
My husband and I both see Dr. Patel. She is absolutely wonderful and worth every penny! She’s helped us for various reasons but most notable is her assistance throughout our IVF journey. We’re currently 11 weeks pregnant! She is extremely knowledgeable and takes the time to educate you about everything she’s doing as well as inform you of things you can do yourself outside of acupuncture to help with said issue(s). She always makes sure your comfortable and is extremely friendly and easy to talk to! We cannot recommend Dr. Patel and the team at Mirvana Acupuncture enough!
Dr. Sonya Patel is phenomenal! She is so incredibly passionate and knowledgeable! She has helped me through both of my high risk, IVF pregnancies and postpartum journey. We are currently working on metabolism and milk production and I see results every time! I wish I had pages to talk about all the wonderful things she does….she goes over and beyond for you! I highly recommend her! You will not be disappointed! (Her staff is incredible too)
Mirvana Acupuncture has been serving the needs of both our members and personal trainers for over 2 years now and the treatment they receive is always professional and satisfactory! Sonya Patel is a member here at our studio and always delivers excellent care to our members when they go visit her. If you are looking to receive professional help for pain or stress please go visit Sonya at Mirvana!
I had an exceptional experience at Mirvana Acupuncture, thanks to Dr. Patel. Her knowledge of acupuncture and holistic healing is truly impressive. She took the time to explain the process and made me feel comfortable throughout my sessions. Dr. Patels kindness and caring nature shone through in her attentive approach to my well-being. I highly recommend Mirvana Acupuncture and Dr. Patel for anyone seeking holistic and compassionate care.
This is a 5 star office and service! I have been suffering from pain, stress, and tension and Dr. Patel was exceptional. She addressed all my concerns, took her time with me, listened to my complaints, was very thorough and professional, and I did not feel rushed like most places- you are not just a number here. For someone who struggles with pain and tension, stress in my upper back, I could immediately feel relief just after one visit. She was extremely kind and had great bed side manner. The office is beautiful offering a relaxing experience, exceptionally clean/sanitary and her front office personnel were friendly and professional. I strongly recommend anyone looking for alternative care for pain and various other ailments, come see Dr. Patel! I plan on returning for another visit.
I am a United States Army Veteran. Dr. Patel has done such a GREAT job in helping me with my Chronic pain and the Staff is AWSOME!
I love coming here for my acupuncture visits! Once you walk in, you are greeted with an extremely tranquil and relaxing atmosphere that is full of zen. Dr Patel is also very kind and caring, and you can tell she really wants to do what is best for her patients, every single time. She isn’t satisfied to just give her patients mediocre care. She wants to do everything in her knowledge to let you have a good experience every visit, as well as treat all your concerns. If she feels that a certain treatment is not as effective in her opinion, she will recommend a different approach. I also love that they have heated beds as I’m always freezing whenever I get treatment, another reason I keep coming back. I went to a acupuncturist in the past and I always dreaded going because it was so uncomfortable being cold and lying there for close to an hour. Since seeing Dr Patel, I’ve noticed improvement in my symptoms and feel less tired overall. Highly recommend Mirvana acupuncture and Dr Patel!
WOW! So so so good. I am amazed. I knew nothing about acupuncture and to be very honest I thought it was sort of a weird thing that happened in dirty places by some guy that had no medical knowledge. Mirvana is so clean, so professionally run. The rooms are very large and comfortable. The owner is very passionate about helping you get healthy. It does not hurt! She will explain what she is going to do and then will make recommendations that best fit your health. I highly recommend it.
Wow, I cannot praise Dr. Patel enough! I highly recommend her for anyone needing help for fertility, especially for first time moms. I came in for help getting pregnant after over a year of no luck and inconclusive visits at fertility clinics. Dr. Patel was warm from the start and clearly knowledgeable in fertility, but never intimidating. Fast forward several months later - I am currently 3 months pregnant and my pregnancy is going well! Dr. Patel has been such a big help the whole time I started seeing her. I went though a minor surgery, a miscarriage, and then the first trimester of my current pregnancy with her guidance and I would have been lost without her. It is so wonderful to have a professional to talk to on a weekly basis especially when you may not feel comfortable talking to friends about your journey and your ob/gyn will only see you as needed. Thank you so much Dr. Patel! A+ to her staff as well - they were always great in answering my questions!
Dr. Sonya Patel and staff are incredibly awesome!! They make me feel welcome and always are happy to help. Dr. Patel takes the time to explain everything in detail and answer all my questions. She has made this IVF journey easier to understand and relaxing!!!
After years of suffering from neck and back pain from injuries received during military service trying physical therapy, injections and pain medication, my husband asked the VA for an appointment for acupuncture and after 4 sessions he can feel the difference. DR. SONYA PATEL gets 5+ stars. She is very attentive, professional, and the facility is warm and relaxing. I recommend giving Mirvana Acupuncture a try.
Thank you Dr.Patel for your positive guidance and a listening ear, patience and positive energy. Allowing me to ask all the questions and concerns. For a person who has never had acupuncture I must say it is a benefit to me. I look forward to my new Journey 🤞💞
When meeting Sonya, she is personable and professional! She is passionate about acupuncture from her own experiences and is knowledgeable about it combined with some nutrition support and recommended supplements. The office is very clean and is well run with easy scheduling in person or online. When waiting for your appointment, the retail side of the office has an interesting array of products for nutrition or self-care.
Dr. Patel is amazing. I went to see her for back issues. The care I’ve received was more than I expected. In 45 days I’ve lost 20 pounds. My desire to drink declined. I’m sleeping more than 2-3 hours now. My back pain has reduced significantly. She sincerely cares about your well-being as her patient. I sincerely appreciate her dedication to healing.
I endured a neck and back injury in military active duty service USMC 1978-1980.Since the age of 20 I have lived in continual severe pain . Night and day I suffered struggling function in day to day activities. Doctors seem to think a pill treats every thing . The only one who benefits from this treatment is the pharmaceutical companies. Recently a therapist recommended acupuncture. I was referred to Mirvana acupuncture in Sugarland. Honestly it was a slow start but each treatment was better than the last. This weeks last treatment was extrodinary. No one knows how good it feels to be pain free after years of non stop pain. Thank you Ms. Mirvana look forward to seeing you soon. Have a blessed day...
This is the first time in my life doing acupuncture, I’ve heard about it, but have never tried it. I’ve been going to Mirvana for about 8 months now and love it! Dr. Patel is very knowledgeable about what I am going through currently and she makes me feel at home when I’m in a session with her! I highly recommend working with her!
Mirvana Acupuncture has been a god send! Dr. Patel really takes her time to understand what is going and walks you through the treatment plan. She is great at breaking things down and really explaining it you. The staff is really kind and understanding. 15 out of 10!
I love this place! I have ALWAYS received consistently great service. Liz and Katie at the front desk are always sweet and welcoming. Sonya is the most amazing doctor Ive worked with. From day one, she has taken the time to listen to me, apply her knowledge to what I specifically needed and has always followed up with me. I love that she will even add her special touch with some good smelling balms when needed! I can email her any time and she is so prompt with her responses. She truly is like a friend I needed - always positive and uplifting. Love her and highly recommend her!
I feel Dr.Patel and the staff really deserve 10 star review. One of the most outstanding customer service I have found here. Dr. Patel goes above and beyond to help her patients. I will be using and recommending only this acupuncture clinic. Truly one of the best in Houston area.
Exceptional experience! Such a relaxing atmosphere and I am in awe with her knowledge on fertility. I listened to a podcast with her speaking about her life story and how she got into the field and I am now even more impressed with Dr. Patel. Highly recommend!
When it comes to Alternative medicine and Chinese herbal medicine, Dr. Sonya Patel is so so knowledgeable, passionate, caring and offers such amazing advice and guidance to any of your medical questions and/or concerns. No matter how busy she is with her practice, she makes sure she gives you the attention you deserve. I live in Florida and her services are not limited to only Texas (her practice is located) but she will give you the same amount of care no matter where you live. Telemedicine has given her an advantage over other practitioners who traditionally see their patients in person only. Love her and highly recommend her!!
Dr Patel is very hands on. I love how detailed she is when asking about specific things about my medical history and she can help me in specific areas. The clinic is also soothing and calming. After my first session, that’s the first time I felt so relaxed even without taking any medication.
What a treasure! Dr.Patel is capable, professional, and knowledgeable as well as experienced and passionate about her profession. And, she certainly gets great results...at least, she did with me! I look forward to my every appointment. I highly recommend her. 👍🏻
I’m here to add another 5 star review to the list! My first acupuncture session was today and Sonya was so down to earth but at the same time extremely knowledgeable! She broke things down (such as blood levels and what our bodies do) to where I could actually understand and visualize what she was talking about. This whole time I never understood why my RE had be on birth control and she put it in a way where I fully understood and I just really appreciate that so much really! Also I am seeing her for fertility/IVF process and she really sounds like she knows exactly what she is talking about when it comes to fertility so I’m very confident with her work. When you have someone who takes their time with you and takes the time to actually explain things to you it really does set the tone for your whole fertility acupuncture treatment. We definitely have gotten off to a great start and I can’t wait for my future treatments with Sonya!
I went here with a positive attitude and was greeted by an extremely nice lady at the front. The office is beautiful. When the doctor came in she was condescending, mocking, cruel, cold and completely rude. After having read another review criticizing her bedside manner and her response completely invalidating her experience and then saying it “wasn’t fair” of her to post her experience, my assumption is she will respond to this with some kind of flippant answer. Lady, I left your office shaking and in tears for absolutely no reason. There’s a way to say things….. work on your emotional intelligence. You’re an acupuncturist, not a brain surgeon. You work directly with the clients….. after being treated so badly and trying to rush out of the office (to cry) I told her I’d like to skip the acupuncture. Why? I didnt want her touching me! She then explained “that’s fine, I’m charging you either way”. So to get treated like garbage, be ridiculed for nursing my daughter, and spending 10 minutes in her office she charged me 150$. My next stop is with bbb.Edited to add after seeing her responseI knew there was a reason for this. She treated me this way because I am visibly Muslim with a Pakistani last name, then claimed I was racially motivated. She then posted all of my hippa protected information for the entirety of google to see. Anyone going in here should be aware that 1) your medicalInformation may be released if you anger Ms. Patel, and 2) if you are Muslim, be expected to be treated very poorly. Everything she stated here as a response is untrue. I was very polite to her staff who was very polite to me, and that’s why I said she was sweet. We talked about the merchandise and made small talk and I came Into the room smiling. It was only after dealing with her, being bullied and talked down to that i stopped smiling. Her bringing up the kidney point is another obsurdity. I told her the other doctor used needles and it hurt that point (and i actually praised my last acupuncturist, i didn’t “complain” about him) she then rolled her eyes and sneered and said “that’s a stomach point I have no idea what you’re talking about”. It may sound like a ridiculous exaggeration but I swear to god this is what she did ! didnt openly cry for her to record me On video, that’s true. I ask, does this seem Like an appropriate or professional response to what I said? That her video recording of me wasn’t that i left in tears? She mentioned that one should look into her other reviews, i think you should see if any of them are from Muslim or Pakistani people, frankly, because the woman is racist. That’s true, I left to cry. Which is what i said. This woman is beyond invalidating. It’s frightening to see her wrath and her willingness to openly discuss my personal and medicalInformation on google just to hurt my feelings and embarrass me. Ladies please be careful.
I sought help at Mirvana Acupuncture for chronic pain and as a dieting resource. I knew Sonya Patel had stellar credentials but was impressed by her knowledge, experience and professionalism. My chronic pain has been relieved and I am losing weight due to the appetite control treatment. I have also received sessions to increase energy, metabolism and to reduce stress. A combination of all these treatments has helped me establish life style changes to improve my health, outlook and over all well-being.I wrote that first review 5 years ago. I am again being treated by Dr Patel for a new injury. She continues to be a very caring practioner. I had chronic knee pain for 8 months and after three treatments my pain was gone. Im so grateful to be Dr. Patels patient. Dr. Patel and her staff provide the patients with a welcoming enviroment, a helpful attitude and true concern for the patients well being. Thank you Dr. Patel and staff.February 1, 2024FYIMy surgeon gave me literature about treating knee pain. One of the suggested treatments is accupuncture. I agree, the accupuncture worked for me.
I can’t say enough good things about my experiences with Dr. Sonya at Mirvana Acupuncture. I started meeting with her in 2019 when a friend who used to deal with infertility (who was about to have her 3rd baby) told me that Dr. Sonya was very knowledgeable about the benefits of using acupuncture; including how helpful it can be when attempting to conceive a baby. I had been dealing with infertility for about 8 years at that point. Long story short, I now have a healthy, smart, beautiful 15 month old and I know starting acupuncture with Dr. Sonya is part of the reason why I am a mother today.Dr. Sonya was very intentional with the acupuncture protocol she created for me and was always willing to answer all of my questions (no matter how many I had and I had a lot haha). She’s also very personable and friendly which makes her easy to talk to. I am currently having more acupuncture sessions with her to hopefully expand my family and it is a highlight of my week to get on her acupuncture table and relax to soft music as I have my appointment.I highly recommend Dr. Sonya to anyone who is seeking to try acupuncture for the first time; anyone attempting to conceive a baby; anyone who is dealing with stress or anxiety; and anyone experiencing physical ailments such as knee issues. I’ve had acupuncture sessions for all of these things and they were all always helpful. So basically I recommend her to everyone haha. Starting acupuncture with Dr. Sonya is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Dr. Sonya Patel with Mirvana Acupuncture & Chinese Herbs is absolutely AMAZING! Since starting with her in 2016, she has helped me with numerous things including (but not limited to) high cholesterol, anxiety, fertility, injuries, pain, pregnancy symptoms, immunity, and cold/flu treatment. I honestly feel that she can treat almost any ailment that comes about and I know that if she cant or she feels another way is better, shell tell you. It is overwhelmingly obvious that she cares about her patients and what is best for them more than anything else.Appointments are easy to schedule either by phone, in person, or online. Another benefit of Mirvana is not only can you see Dr. Patel at her Sugar Land office, but she also holds hours at Memorial Hermann in Memorial City. One of my favorite things Mirvana does is they email you reminders on the days leading up to your appointment. Additionally, any time I have had an issue, question, or concern I have always been able to get a timely response by either calling during business hours or emailing after hours.In the case that Dr. Patel feels some supplements or herbs could be of help to you, many of them are readily available at their office so there is no need to go all over trying to find what you need. She is also great at compounding various herbs to help many conditions and is able to have them ready with a short turnaround.Meeting with Dr. Patel isnt like meeting with a regular doctor; she quickly becomes a friend. I have always been completely comfortable discussing any and all issues/concerns. Mirvana exudes an incredibly warm environment from the wonderful assistants Katie & Liz to the treatment rooms to Dr. Patel herself.Overall (if you cant tell from my long review) I love Dr. Patel, Mirvana, and everything they do! If you are on the fence about accupuncture or Mirvana or dont know if its for you - do it! You wont regret it. If you are nervous about your first appointment, know that she will sit down with you before she begins and explain everything to help put you at ease. I can/will/do recommend Dr. Patel/Mirvana to everyone I know. She is A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!!
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY ON THIS PLACE.My mom and I came to experience the zen den for the first time. Neither of us had ever tried acupuncture before. They had told us to get there 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork but we ended up getting there only 3 minutes early. The paperwork did not take long at all though and we still got into the room on time.Dr. Patel made some small talk and asked if it was my mom if it was her first time. She barely acknowledged me at all. Next thing we knew she was just putting the needles (2 in each leg, one in each hand, and one on our forehead) and walking out with no explanation of what the process was for and what we were supposed to be doing.All it was was laying on a recliner for 30 minutes. The paperwork had a general summary about how it was for anxiety and stress but overall the information we got was very limited. Throughout the process, my hands started hurting very badly. The first time, I used the pager to tell Dr. Patel that I was uncomfortable and she took out the needle in my right hand without saying anything. The second time I just took them out myself which she later reprimanded me for because there’s apparently a “very precise way to do it.”In the beginning of the treatment, she asked me if I would like the heat lamp on my feet. I said yes, but it wasn’t working so she got another one. Halfway through, I realized that one wasn’t working either and Nicki came in to help. She couldn’t get it working and said she would come back in just a few minutes but she never did.At the end, my mom explained to Dr. Patel that she expected more of an explanation for her first time of what was going on. Dr. Patel then proceeded to say that she was very busy with her other patients who were cancer patients, basically implying that we didn’t deserve the same level of care and were an inconvenience to her. She gave some empty excuse of how “most people that come in know that the zen room is just to unwind and relax.” She also said that if we had gotten there earlier we could have gotten an explanation of the process.It would have taken less than two minutes to talk to us and give us some kind of reassurance whether than just walk out immediately. I’m so disappointed in this experience and will not be coming back. If you like acupuncture then go somewhere else, or if you just want to relax then just get a regular massage.
Sonya is wonderful! She is very professional and personable at the same time.I started treatments with her when I was trying to conceive my daughter almost four years ago. I used acupuncture every step of the way, along with my fertility treatments. She is very knowledgeable about IVF and all that comes along with it. I truly believe my acupuncture treatments along with IVF made the difference. I continue to receive treatments from Sonya.
I became a patient of Dr. Patel last year. I suffer from anxiety and stress. When I travel my anxiety escalates. My fiancé made my first appointment at Mirvana Acupuncture when I was in Houston for a visit. I was traveling back to California the next day. I had never tried acupuncture before, but that first visit made me a believer in the results of the treatment. Every time I come visit Houston I make sure to make an appointment before my flight back home. I just wish I could see her on a weekly basis.
I have been receiving acupuncture treatments from Dr. Sonya Patel for 4 months and couldn’t be happier with her treatment and her respect for my military service. I am a 100% disabled Viet Nam vet.Several years after my return from the service, I was in a car wreck and suffered 4 compressed disks and 1 herniated disk in my neck. I could not raise my right arm above my shoulder nor sleep on my right side without experiencing pain. I had tried every exercise and rehab program there was and could not get any relief from the pain.I visited Dr. Sharon Loggins DC, FIACA at the Michael DeBakey VA facility in Houston.Dr. Loggins wrote a referral to Dr. Sonya for me to receive acupuncture treatment through the VA’s Community Care Program. Dr. Sonya is a participant in the program.During my 1st visit, Dr. Sonya made me feel right at home and discussed a treatment regimen that was authorized by the VA. She assured me that there would be no cost to me for these visits since I had been referred by Dr. Loggins from the VA.On my 1st visit, the pain was still there when we completed my treatment but it was not as harsh and severe as before.I visited Dr. Sonya on a weekly basis and now am visiting her on an ‘as needed basis’.I still have a few headaches, and an occasional dull pain but I can now sleep on my right side. I’m now able to exercise and I’ve also regained the strength I lost in my right arm and shoulder.Dr. Sonya and her staff have always treated me with respect and kindness. They are very flexible concerning my appointments.I strongly recommend Dr. Sonya if you’re looking for a caring, compassionate, and competent acupuncture doctor to help with you pain management, insomnia, or any other ailments. You will not be disappointed!If you’re a military veteran, contact your primary care physician to refer you to Dr. Loggins at the VA for a referral to see Dr. Sonya.
I am SO thankful Sonya has been able to get back to her practice...my body and mind needed some normal! As always, her patients come first and she has taken EVERY precaution necessary to ensure patient safety. I waited outside in my car (per the instructions on the door) and Sonya (who is wearing a mask at all times) waved me in from the door and I went right into the treatment room. I am more than confident in the clean environment and social distancing she is practicing (I did not see another person in the office) that she will continue to help flatten the curve while giving much needed treatment to her patients. Thanks for ALL that you do Sonya!
Genuine and professional staff here, been coming for a few months now and the treatment really helps my chronic neck pain and anxiety. The cleanliness of everything and people here only help to add to the experience. Highly recommend
This place is the best in the field for acupuncture. I have used it many times for my allergies and pain related illnesses and have always felt the level of healthcare and professionalism was A+.Dr Sonya has a wonderful bedside manner and is very knowledgeable to all issues you may have. She is also always continually advancing herself for higher education in her field and beyond. Highly recommended this practice.
Sonia at Mirvana Acupuncture is extremely knowledgeable, warm and caring. She provides a very relaxing atmosphere where her staff is very helpful and friendly. As a psychotherapist, I am a believer in mind/body connection and refer my patients to Sonia as acupuncture has been shown to help in the relief of stress and anxiety.
Dr. Patel is the best. She has mad this round of ivf so mischievous better than my last round wo acupuncture. I feel confident in her treatment and medical advice.
I have been treated by Dr. Sonya for more than a year. She worked a miracle on my shoulder pain within just two sessions. Something that bothered me for over a year...healed within two weeks.I have been seen for a number of different things that were giving me problems...and have to say it’s really made a big difference in many ways.I am happy to see all the 5 star reviews, because I know how great the Dr and clinic is. Consistently great. Highly recommend.
Dr. Patel is an accomplished and gifted acupuncturist. I have been going to Dr. Patel for 7 plus years now to treat an injured knee, sore back, digestive health and sometimes just for a wellness visit. I highly recommend acupuncture! Thank you Dr. Patel and staff.
Love, love, love Dr. Sonya Patel. Excellent doctor and great staff. After months and months of physical therapy and doctor visits for my wrist pain, I am now pain free after a few sessions.
I went to see Sonya for my migraines and it did wonders. She was very thorough with my history and made some great recommendations. Very professional and personable at the same time . Definitely recommend Mirvana for anyone wanting or needing help for pain. Or as an alternative to western medicine.
Acupuncture is the best natural approach for my issues and it has helped a lot. Also, Dr. Patel is awesome and one of the best at what she does.
Sonya is a miracle worker. I started going to her when I had a bulging disc and medications, PT, and yoga were not working. I felt pain free after only one session! Now whenever I have any ailments, including pregnancy symptoms, the first person I call is Sonya.
They are attentive and very much listen to whats bothering you. The treatments have done wonders for my Sciatica.
Dr. Sonya has been more helpful and knowledgeable than my own Dr. Cannot recommend her enough. Humble, patient and explains everything so well!
Sonya is THE BEST. Has helped my sciatica & pain. Also very relaxing office & experience.
I love this place! Dr. Sonya is very knowledgeable and very helpful. She answered all my questions and helped with taking the right supplements. I would highly, highly recommend Dr. Sonya!
Had knee pain for years, went a few sessions and no more knee pain. I am back running again, pain free.
