Ladan Nabet Bodies in Resonance

About J. Ladan Nabet, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac.

Hello, I'm Ladan (she/they).

Since 2009, I've helped people replenish and heal connections with their body, lineage, and the land. 

Integrating Traditional East Asian Medicine, neuroscience, and ancestral wisdom traditions, I've been fortunate to learn from communities, leaders and elders in these fields. My greatest teacher is the land beneath my feet and the natural world.

I deeply care about helping people bring their unique magic to the world, and restoring nourishing connections.

I'm an Alchemical Alignment trauma resolution practitioner, and former member of the teaching team. I earned a Masters Degree in Acupuncture with extensive post-graduate training in orthopedics/sports medicine and bodywork, focused on chronic conditions and pain. My studies also include pre and perinatal development, and developmental trauma.

Additionally, I've trained in traditional shamanic Seidr healing practices and intuitive perception with Betsy Bergstrom, traditions connected to my maternal roots.

I'm an ongoing student of transgenerational healing practices.

My Perspective
I find being human and having a body miraculous and challenging. 

I believe there's something you uniquely bring to the world by living the life only you can live. There's something each of us is learning and transforming, and we do this through our multidimensional body and relationships.

When we tend our pain points and claim our joy, it ripples out. I believe this ripple can help create a kinder, more just world. 

I've been shaped by my family, where I live, and the times I'm living in. 

Prior to my private practice, theater and dance nurtured my love of the body. I earned my B.F.A at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. I fell in love with experimental theater and New York City. While developing my healing work, I worked part-time in the day to day operations of a family philanthropy, a woman led private equity firm, and a theater company.

Beyond my practice, I love being in the woods, storytelling, and deep laughter. 

How I Came to this Work

In my early 20s, I struggled with debilitating chronic pain. I saw a lot of doctors and explored many different kinds of treatments. Eventually, I was inspired to study some of them. Now, over two decades later, I'm honored to walk with clients along their healing path. 

My path hasn't been straight forward. There wasn't a quick fix. Yet over time, I started to listen to and weave together what my body needed.

It's an evolving process, calling for something new at different stages of my life. I've been fortunate for access to and the support of gifted healers, helpers, and communities of care along the way. 

I've come to Trust:

• Bodies are wise and complex. They are a compass. They are a portal to all you've lived and to your ancestors.
