Dr. Liliya Danilyan , DACM, L.Ac
Liliya founded La Luna Wellness in 2019, an integrative and holistic clinic rooted in ancient wisdom with a personally tailored and modern approach to healthcare and medicine. Out of a deep passion and calling to support and empower others to achieve their best sense of self, she created a space to go within and provide your body and mind with the quiet space and resources it needs to heal.
Seeing a lack of access to healing spaces in West Marin, Liliya opened the West Marin Wellness Collective, a collective space in Stinson Beach, where others can share their healing craft and wisdom. She shares the space with incredibly talented and gifted local women who care deeply about serving their local community.
In her free time you can find her with her son Teddy out in nature exploring! She loves time in the ocean surfing, cooking with her husband, spending time reading a good book and enjoying her beautiful Bolinas community.
My Approach
Taking a truly whole- human approach, I meet each patient where they are with curiosity, compassion and respect, taking time to listen deeply to their story, goals, and concerns before offering any recommendations. My approach blends ancient and evidence-based practices with individualized care, integrating lifestyle, mental and physical health and the social context that shapes foundational health, while partnering with patients to co-create realistic, sustainable plans and empowering them with education and tools to make informed choices. I prioritize clear communication, shared decision-making and continuity of care, adjusting treatments as needed and celebrating progress—small and large—so every person feels seen, supported and confident on their path to better health.
Liliya’s practice is inspired by the beautiful ever-changing lunar cycle that so deeply affects us physiologically, emotionally and mentally. It represents Yin time, a time to go within, rest, restore, nourish and heal. Our body and mind heals when our nervous system has the opportunity to feel safe, held, and calm. La Luna Wellness is a refuge in a fast paced world, where one has a moment to take a deep breath, let go and go inward.

An Invitation …
Acupuncture is an invitation inward, a moment of stillness, an honoring of Yin and the deep feminine. In those moments of respite, the body can heal. A deep descend into transformative healing through the reunion of mind, body, and spirit. A journey back home to self
I invite you to experience your healing potential with me.
Testimonials…
“Liliya Danilyan is, without question, the most skilled, talented, gentle, empathetic, and supportive acupuncturist I have ever worked with. I have been seeing her for several years now, and she has guided me through severe neck pain (gone!), personal trauma (greatly eased), and substantial physical rehabilitation (hip replacement muscle regeneration). All her work is infused with love and a deep understanding of how both body and emotional systems interact. I would not go anywhere else, I've sent my whole family to her, and I highly recommend her services to anyone lucky enough to get an appointment!
— SVSB, Muir Beach“Liliya Danilyan is a treasure! She provides a safe and nurturing atmosphere along with her expertise in Acupuncture and general wellness. Liliya is very precise, caring and professional. She applies acupuncture and massage to help solve physical issues and insure peace of mind. I highly recommend Liliya.”
—J.P, Bolinas“As I embarked on the journey to heal and work on myself, both internally and externally, Dr. Danilyan made me comfortable enough to trust in her professionalism and her energy. I have greatly benefited from her work, particularly with stress, anxiety, insomnia, and coming back home to myself. Liliya has an uncanny ability to gently steer you and guide you along your path with compassion. If you are willing and committed to fulfilling your side of the deal, she will give you her best too- which is truly a special experience. She also has great supplements, and is very knowledgeable on overall health and wellness. Grateful beyond words.
