About Nona

Nona

Nona started her journey in 2000, joining a prestigious international Aesthetic college, undertaking meticulous training from experts & instructors from New York, New Jersey & Japan to master the science, theory, and the practical knowledge behind treatment methods & the chemistry of the products.

Having attained her honours and distinction certificates with the globally industry leading CIDESCO AND CIBTAC, Nona has always challenged herself to understand and learn more about the body-mind-skin connection. And after years of working in aesthetics she understood that there is more to skin than simply using the right product.

Her vision on beauty and aesthetic treatments took a turn when she herself started to struggle with a condition called neurogenic rosacea, having to endure painful raw flareups on her skin for years on end, and to no avail.

So she embarked on a mission to learn as much as possible about the emotional state of the skin.

What also led her down this pathway were her client’s stories, and her personal experiences, past traumas, abuse, neglect, tremendous loss and most important the lack of understanding how to emotionally self-regulate which made her entire body sick, and impossible to diagnose any illness she had been going through.

So, as a result of having been subsequently training with best international skin brands, Nona has also received her certificates in Holistic Therapies and Reflexology in 2010.

With extensive knowledge in Biomechanics, Medical Rehabilitation, Kinesiology, Sound Therapy, and coaching Nona’s treatments combined altogether create a healthy flow and harmony in one’s body.

Coupled with a passion for beauty, and a desire to become an expert in each of these realms, she wanted to bring a unique value to all her clients, and to deliver the highest quality experience across the spectrum of beauty and health.

She started charting the natural flow of energy between herself and her clients, in order to help them find the balance through everything they release, and while she created that safe space for her clients, she was also able to listen to their life story – and their body story.

She learned that listening to one’s body and sharing one’s story is the first significant starting point. Every story matter, every person’s pain becomes a little more bearable when it is shared, and we release the anchors of life.

With a safe and integrated approach, Nona has been dedicating her professional life to making people look their very best – but more than anything, to ensure they feel good in their body as well.

Her treatments consider the body as a dynamic system, understanding that if you affect one part of the body you affect the rest of it. Her aim is to approach the body as a holistic system and energy system while the mind and body are part of it.
As such, Nona has passionately treated thousands of her clients, by offering them a better insight on the importance of body-mind-skin connection. And with over 20 years of experience, Nona takes pride in delivering the best treatments to her clients – being driven to make a difference, and to make each of her clients feel unique & confident in their skin.
