Dr. Rachna Mehra takes a comprehensive approach to her practice; in addition to medical treatment, she also examines each patient’s nutritional habits. Dr. Mehra seeks to develop personalized diets for each patient with a beneficial combination of vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty and amino acids. Dr. Mehra highlights the positive impact a healthy diet can have on conditions such as dementia, heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, and hyperlipidemia. In addition to nutrition, Dr. Rachna Mehra offers stress management through meditation, ayurveda, yoga, massage, and detoxification. This philosophy of holistic healing seeks to determine mind-body links prior to prescribing a remedy for a patient’s ailments. Dr. Mehra believes that most diseases and discomforts are accompanied by false perceptions, and healing can be accelerated when these perceptions are clarified. Dr. Mehra incorporates her extensive background in rheumatology with the discipline of her current practice. Her experience with patients suffering from pain in the joints and soft tissues led her to develop the holistic approach she employs at the Dr. Rachna Wellness & Longevity Center. She integrates holistic practices such as platelet-rich plasma injections and prolotherapy in the treatment of injured, irritated, or weakened ligaments, tendons, and joints. Prolotherapy consists of injecting a gentle mixture of a mild anesthetic and a solution such as glycerin or dextrose to promote the body’s natural healing processes.
