Dr. Lhakpa Dolma studied at the Tibetan Children Village School (TCV) and completed her five year degree in Tibetan Medicine from Mentseekhang Tibetan Medicine & Astrological Institute in Dharamsala, graduating with a Kachupa degree (BTMS) in 2002. In 2013 she was granted Menrapa degree (MD) from Mentseekhang.
Dr Lhakpa Dolma’s interest in Tibetan Medicine started from a very young age as her father studied Tibetan Medicine and Astrology under the close guidance of Trulku Sangye Kunga, a great Dzogchen master from Gebchag Gompa. Growing up, she watched her father healing people through spiritual practices and Tibetan Medicine with Trulku.
Dr. Lhakpa moved to South Africa in 2001 and practiced Tibetan Medicine there for five years, teaching many workshops and giving lectures and exhibitions on Tibetan Medicine before returning to India in 2006.
Since 2006 she has been practicing Tibetan Medicine in Bangalore, India at Menlha Wellness, and since the pandemic she has been giving many virtual consultations which she finds very beneficial during this stressful period. In addition to medicines, she considers a wholesome diet and healthy lifestyle of utmost importance for all.
Dr. Lhakpa has also served as resident doctor and teacher at the Valley School (KFI) in Bangalore from 2014 - 2016 and in 2019. Her keen interest in promoting mother child healthy living was strongly cultivated after developing close knit relationships with young children and teachers at the school. She believes that patience, love, and gratitude for every little thing brings people closer and harmonizes our relationship with nature. She is a mother of three children aged 16, 14, and 10.
