NONA NAZARI, BA R.A.c RTCMP
REGISTERED CHINESE MEDICINE PRACTITIONER AND ACUPUNTURIST
 

Nona Nazari is a Registered Acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner (herbalist), who received her doctorate in traditional Chinese medicine from the Tzu Chi International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Nona’s areas of special interest include treating patients with psychological conditions, such as anxiety and depression. In addition, she focuses on working with patients who have unexplained infertility, autoimmune disorders, pain syndromes (chronic and acute), addictions, and chemical dependency issues. In her treatments, Nona uses some of the classical healing methods of Chinese medicine, which include cupping and moxibustion (a type of classical heat therapy). Nona’s healing philosophy is to address all aspects of her patients—physical, emotional, and spiritual. She believes that to heal one dimension, all of the others must also be brought into balance. She says, "I believe that our bodies can heal themselves when they are provided with the right tools", and is committed to providing each patient with those tools.

Nona’s education and skills are augmented by a number of professional experiences. As part of her education, she studied in Taiwan, and has traveled around the world to study yoga with masters in the field. Nona has also worked with a mentor for several years, gaining knowledge and experience in treating patients with moxibustion. She has volunteered at a seasonal moxibustion series, which involves treating patients who have a variety of health conditions over twelve weekends each year. Nona spends her time outside of the clinic looking after her toddler son, hiking, and practicing yoga. She’s also a fur mom to two dogs and is devoted to rescuing and fostering dogs that need a home.
