“I was diagnosed with IC May of 2015, it was one of the hardest things I have ever experienced. It took me a few months to get diagnosed properly and after that, I started a series of bladder installations, Elmiron and diet changes. While I felt mild improvement, the Elmiron was making me lose my hair and I wasn't convinced the bladder installations were actually helping and sometimes I felt more uncomfortable after them. I decided to stop doing those treatments and started my own research. I kept coming across allergies and autoimmune issues as potential causes of my IC. I picked up a book called ‘To Wake in Tears’ which is about the author’s IC healing journey. Reading that book was the start of my own healing. In the book, the author stated that her turning point was when she started NAET. I sought out a few NAET specialists and decided that Dr. Roya was the best fit for me. After a few weeks of treatments I started to feel like a lot of my symptoms were improving and that I was making progress. I went from feeling uncomfortable in my body on a minute-to-minute basis, to half days, to a few times a week, to a few times a month. I truly think the body has the ability to heal if given the chance and effort. I accredit most of my healing to being open to NAET, changing my diet (avoiding inflammatory foods) and being persistent.”

“I have had allergy problems since I was in college in the early 1980's. Working in the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. caused my problem to become severe. Over the years, I have had numerous allergy tests with medical doctors that validated my severe allergies to multiple allergens. Nothing seemed to work. When I moved to California in 1998, my allergies became more severe. My medical doctor prescribed pills and a prescription nasal spray and told me to ‘learn to live with it’. I was very frustrated. Then one day, my chiropractor told me about NAET and said that I should see Dr. Roya Nikzad and try acupuncture. I told my chiropractor that I did not believe in acupuncture, but was desperate enough to try anything. I was doubtful at first, but after about my 5th or 6th acupuncture treatment, my allergies started to get better. I stopped having the severe sneezing attacks, running nose, and headaches. Over the past year, Dr. Nikzad has gone out of her way to fit my treatments into my schedule. At times it has been frustrating to have slight setbacks, but I have continued my treatments and I feel 100% better than when I began. I have told a few friends about my treatments and there first question is ‘doesn't it hurt?’ Truthfully, it doesn't hurt and the treatment is the most relaxing period I have each week. I have referred my partner to Dr. Nikzad for a back problem who has also had great results. Whether you believe in acupuncture or not is irrelevant, IT REALLY DOES WORK. It sure worked wonders for me"

“In my early twenties, I began suffering from an increasing number of allergies, with symptoms that had gotten worse over the next 20 years. I had developed hay fever and pollen allergies to the point of not being able to breathe at all through my nose, which caused sleeping problems. I was not able to digest dairy products which caused diarrhea, severe gas, coughing, wheezing, and breathing difficulties. Eating onions caused severe indigestion. After receiving no help from medical doctors, I found Dr. Roya Nikzad and her treatments worked immediately. The first and most obvious dramatic results were for the most severe allergies, such as perfume, dairy, grass, pollen, and onion. As she continued the treatments, I found that many of my symptoms were related to allergies I wasn't aware of, which were causing physical problems for me. NAET has worked for me, long after western medicine had reached its limit.”

“In October 2001 our son Justin began suffering from a series of unexplained fevers, which would peak between 105 to 106 degrees and would last up to ten days each coming in regular intervals two to three weeks to the day. For over two years he was sick more often than healthy. In our efforts to find an answer, Justin was subjected to a series of tests which consisted of a one week stay at Children's Hospital as an in-patient. There were numerous bloodworks, spinal taps, bone scans, CAT scans, ultrasounds of all his internal organs, a heart scan and a complete exam by infectious disease specialist as well as other doctors specializing in the field of Oncology, Hematology, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Allergy, Heart and Genetic experts. The result? Prevailing diagnosis that Justin had a rare and "incurable" form of the disease called "Periodic Fever Syndrome". Then we found Dr. Nikzad and we have come to an undeniable conclusion, that in the short time that she has treated Justin, she has changed his life. He is going onto his third consecutive month without a fever and this hasn't happened in three years. We believe that Dr. Nikzad’s technique and practical skill combined with her demeanor has affected a remarkable recovery to our son. Our only regret is that we didn't find her sooner.”

“When I first met Dr. Nikzad I was hoping to get a prescription for an allergy medication. She told me about how she combines NAET and acupuncture to rid the body of the allergy toxins. I was a bit disappointed because I felt I needed allergy medication so I could get through the day. She was very confident about helping me overcome my illness and it sure sounded like what I needed. I knew at 24 years old I was not supposed to be trudging through the day, so I decided to try it with a bit of skepticism. When I first started arriving at her office, I had dark circles under my eyes from being tired and sluggish all day and could hardly function sometimes. As time went on and my allergies were treated one by one, I noticed an increase in energy, I was more motivated to do the things of everyday life, and I wasn't taking as much allergy medications. I was treated for the first major allergy, lactose. Before the treatment I could not have any cheese or milk products without getting very sick to my stomach. After the 25 hours avoidance period I had a cheese pizza, preparing myself to get sick, but nothing happened! I was cured from this tormenting allergy and was made a believer. Since then I have been treated for molds, dusts, cats and tree pollens and have not taken one allergy pill. I can sleep through the night without waking up sneezing. I don't wake up with allergy headaches anymore and I am ready to conquer the day because I feel great. The best part is that I am not putting any more drugs in my body to suppress my allergies and I am more motivated now to eat right and keep my health at its best. Now I am hoping my parents and friends consider Dr. Nikzad's treatments to improve their overall health and hope they will feel the dramatic improvement I had with this life changing experience. Thank you Dr. Nikzad for what you do and helping me improve my health and life.”

“I have been a patient of Dr. Nikzad for the past 1.5 years and in the course of various treatments, she has proven herself to be an effective, caring, and thoughtful doctor. Among the things we have worked on in my health care needs, she has helped me with a cold which she relieved in a matter of hours and cured in two days. She helped eliminate the pain in my lower back, foot, and gallbladder. The extensive allergy treatments have strengthened my immune system as well. I have highly recommended her to a number of friends and will continue to do so to anyone who needs her care.”

“I have completed ten treatments in the series of NAET to eliminate food allergies. I began the treatments because I had been hospitalized twice last year for bowel obstructions. The doctors had no idea what was causing them. I had all the appropriate tests which showed no growths or abnormalities that could point to a diagnosis. I had my annual physical with my primary care physician and I am pleased to report to that I had no further recurrences of the obstructions, and the doctor says that I am in the best physical condition he has ever seen me. Thank you so much for your committed and caring work with me to attain this marvelous degree of health.”

“I was twenty-eight when I had my first seizure. The CAT scan, MRI, and EEG tests came back normal. My neurologist put me on Tegretol for one year. The drug was very powerful and I could not function properly because I was always tired. After being seizure free for one year I was able to get off the Tegretol. Four months later I had another seizure and two months later I had another. I decided to see Dr. Nikzad and she believed these seizures were caused by food allergies, and that's when she told me about NAET. I was skeptical at first but decided to give it a chance. As the treatments progressed I found the food allergies were numerous. I have been seeing Dr. Nikzad for almost a year and I feel better then ever. Most important of all I am now seizure free!!!! Many, many thanks to Dr. Nikzad and NAET.”

“Our son Matthew was diagnosed with a milk allergy as a baby. His reaction starting with abdominal discomfort and progressed to anaphylactic shock by age 6. I was assured there was no cure, and we would need to avoid all milk products and carry an EpiPen at all times. After my first consultation with Dr. Nikzad, I thought the treatment plan was too nontraditional for us. I went home and decided I was 99% skeptical and 100% desperate. So, I booked his first appointment. After two months, Dr. Nikzad told me he was no longer allergic to milk. Still being skeptical, we returned to the medical doctor where Matthew underwent three tests (prick, cap, and food challenge). HE WAS NO LONGER ALLERGIC TO MILK! Since that day he has had several booster treatments from Dr. Nikzad and each reaction he experiences is less severe. We let him have crackers, bread, cookies, and many foods containing milk. He had his first ice cream. Dr. Nikzad has changed our lives. We use to live in fear. We are now eating out, attending parties, and Matthew is sitting with his friends for lunch at school.”

“My husband and I are so grateful to Dr. Nikzad for putting both of us on a path to good health for the rest of our lives. We came into the office feeling every one of our years, plus some, with a lot of specific complaints: high blood pressure, high cholesterol, body aches and pains, mental fogginess and hormonal issues to name a few. With Dr. Nikzad's NAET treatments and nutritional guidance along with the acupuncture treatments we've been able to eliminate most of our prescription medications. So far, with only 10 treatments, I have eliminated one of my two hypertension medications and my husband has cut his cholesterol medication in half and may eliminate it completely soon (all with the blessings of our family physicians). Joint pain and inflammation is greatly reduced eliminating the need for cortisone injections and daily ibuprofen. My hormonal hot flashes are almost gone as well and we both feel more energetic and clear minded. The wonderful acupuncture treatments also addressed a lymphatic issue I'd had for over a year- gone with three treatments and recommended herbs. Thank you for providing an alternative/complementary method to traditional medicine to take control of our health- we are true believers with the positive results we've had in such a short time!”

“This has been a very enlightening experience. It has helped me with physical problems and opened up a new way of treatment for pain. My initial doubtfulness of the treatment has changed.”

“As a first time patient of acupuncture, I can truthfully say that this experience has been very beneficial to me. The treatments have helped my arthritis pain tremendously. From the pain being an 8 out of 10, it is now a 2.”

“I had severe low back pain which hampered my movement from a standing to seated position. After one session my pain dramatically decreased. I STRONGLY recommend the treatments.”
