Akbar SayedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a former RN I am extremely selective and have high expectations of anyone that I allow to take care of my body. I came to CALM healing to help with the continued healing of my herniated disc. There were some muscles that were not working like they should and I had some pain in my calf due to the disc herniation. He used a variety of treatments between acupuncture, ultrasound and PEMF (magnetic field therapy) and they had significant impacts on my body. The only reason I'm not still seeing him is because we moved out of the area. I want to tell you about one moment in particular that felt like magic. I still can't actually believed what happened - my left leg (the one affected by the disc herniation) was not working well against resistance when moving to the side. He used an acupuncture needle into one of my abdominal muscles and I kid you not, re-did the same test and suddenly those leg muscles were turned on. This happened 2 months ago and it still feels magic. Rizwan is intuitive, kind and listens. His staff is excellent and makes things easy for you. I can't recommend him enough. Danny MansukhaniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing experience! Riz is extremely knowledgeable, and his deep expertise immediately puts you at ease. He takes the time to listen, clearly explain the treatment, and create an approach tailored to your needs. The PEMF magnetic therapy, StemWave, laser therapy, and dry needling stand out. Riz’s combination of traditional healing practices with modern technology truly sets him apart. Jatin PatelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Calm Healing enough! I recently suffered a back strain and was struggling with pain, stiffness, and limited movement. After working with Riz, I was amazed at how quickly my back started to recover. Riz is an exceptional practitioner who truly understands the body and how to promote healing. From the very first session, he took the time to listen, assess the issue thoroughly, and apply the right techniques to target the root cause of my discomfort. His skill, knowledge, and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process. What impressed me most was how effective the treatment was. Within a short period of time, my pain was significantly reduced, my mobility improved, and I was able to get back to my normal activities much faster than I expected. Riz’s professionalism, caring approach, and genuine commitment to his clients’ well-being made the experience even better. If you're dealing with back pain, an injury, or simply looking for a practitioner who delivers outstanding results, I highly recommend Calm Healing and Riz. The quality of care I received exceeded my expectations, and I’m incredibly grateful for the role he played in my recovery. Five stars all the way! V PTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot say enough wonderful things about CALM Healing. The second I became a patient, I felt welcomed, cared for, and genuinely listened to. The level of compassion, professionalism, and expertise is exceptional. The combination of acupuncture and PEMF therapy has been an incredible part of my healing journey. The treatments have helped reduce bone swelling pain, lingering injury pain, and improve my overall well-being. What sets this practice apart is the time and attention given to each patient. The staff creates a calming, supportive environment, and it is abundantly clear they genuinely care about their patients’ health and wellness. If you are considering acupuncture, PEMF therapy, or any of the services CALM Healing has to offer, I wholeheartedly recommend this practice. Their knowledge, kindness, and dedication to patient care have made a meaningful difference in my life. Five stars is not enough! Krutarth MehtaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. CALM Healing is an outstanding clinic, and Riz Lakhani is the best acupuncturist. My pain has significantly improved since I started seeing him. He provides excellent care and makes sure to listen to every minor detail before starting his treatment. Monica BaliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Riz and Calm Healing. Riz took the time to listen to the pain I was experiencing related to my tennis elbow and shoulder. He was highly knowledgeable of different treatment methods and was able to tailor treatment according to my needs, which included both traditional acupuncture and Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy. After a few sessions, I saw a dramatic improvement and am now pain free. Additionally, the PEMF Therapy helped me relax and sleep better. Therefore, I highly recommend scheduling appointments with Riz for pain management, stress management, and sleep related issues. Sachin OhriTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an amazing experience with Dr. Rizwan at Calm Healing this week. I especially appreciate the passion of Dr. Rizwan to efficiently target underlying issues and provide curative solutions for both tissue and longevity in general. Living an active lifestyle, I’ll be sure to visit Calm Healing again. Charlie MooreTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. You simply will not find a more caring, compassionate and competent practitioner in the fields of Acupuncture, PEMF and newer modalities like Stem Wave. Riz is amazing at listening to your symptoms and developing a plan that applies these tools and technologies to make you better. My personal journey has been one of lower back issues with degenerative disc disease, Lyme’s disease and Afib. Without a doubt Riz has helped me deal effectively with all of these issues and maintain an active lifestyle. I can’t say enough good things about the impact that PEMF had on my healing of Lyme’s. It was the recognition of my condition and Riz’s understanding of how this technology could be applied to help me. The PEMF was the technology that eliminated the last of my symptoms. Finally, I have started the use of Stem Wave for lower back issues and while my treatment is just starting with this technology, the results are immediately known and I have great hope that the trend to better back health is going in the right direction. I’m very fortunate to have found Riz and CALM as I am certainly much healthier in their care. Elijah CartonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The procedures used in Acupuncture/PEMF have done wonders for me in ways that I couldn't even begin to describe. The entire staff team were always caring, respectful and understanding. Along with this, I've noticed that their treatment plans were more than fair for its clients, being laid out at reasonable prices for high satisfaction. They have always strived to create a safe, healthy and comfortable environment for my family and I during each and every appointment. The first day I went would be during the Fall season of 2025, I was instantly greeted with remarkable service from the front desk, along with a personalized plan being set up by Riz, one of the main staff members who constantly stands as a key figure to my healing journey. He truly cares for his clients, as well as guaranteeing their satisfaction through professionalism, determination, and kindness. CALM Healing has helped me regain peace of mind from PTSD and OCD, while offering additional assistance for re-energization for my entire body and mood as a whole. This helped me during my time seeking out pain management, stress reduction, sleep apnea and so much more. CALM Healing is truly one of the best areas in Ellicott City that I've ever been to, and I would 100% come back again, even after succession with previous treatments.
