Dr. Nira Sarlak-ter Veld ND
Nira is a board-certified Naturopathic Doctor, Holistic Health Practitioner, Mind-Body Health expert, and practitioner of Emotional Detox and Heavy Metal Detox therapies. As an Energy4Life (formerly called NES Health Bioenergetics) practitioner and Medical Intuitive, she brings a unique depth of understanding to her practice. Nira is the founder of Good Life Healing House, a wellness sanctuary devoted to nurturing mind-body balance.
With a bio-individualized, multifaceted approach, Nira weaves together the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of healing. Her heartfelt mission is to empower others with the tools and strategies necessary to restore and elevate their well-being. She firmly believes that true health transcends the physical body and that most illnesses are deeply intertwined with psycho-emotional factors, unresolved trauma, and chronic stress. When these underlying causes are left untreated, lasting healing remains elusive.
Nira’s work is dedicated to guiding her clients toward holistic well-being, offering an integrative blend of whole-food nutrition, targeted dietary protocols, gut health optimization, heavy metal detoxification, toxin-free living, and circadian rhythm optimization. She incorporates light therapy, vagus nerve stimulation tools, strategies to minimize EMF exposure, meditation, spiritual practices, biofield tuning, sound therapy, and more. Nira also uses modalities such as Bach flower remedies, homeopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Rife healing frequencies, and bioenergetics—all of which played a pivotal role in her health recovery.
At the core of her practice is medical intuitive testing, enabling her to uncover the hidden root causes of both physical and psycho-emotional challenges, guiding her clients on their path to true healing.
Background
Nira was born in Tehran, Iran, where her academic journey began with the study of French language and linguistics. Her passion for languages led her to continue her studies in France and Canada before she moved to Houston, Texas, to pursue a Master’s degree in Education. However, her life took a transformative turn in 2012 when she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. This health challenge became the catalyst for a profound shift in her career and personal journey.
Determined to heal, Nira immersed herself in research, embracing this diagnosis as an opportunity for self-empowerment and growth. By adopting a new diet and lifestyle and addressing the emotional roots of her illness through mind-body medicine, she healed on every level. This journey ignited a deep love for holistic and natural medicine, and she wholeheartedly embraced her calling: to guide others on their paths to healing, thriving, and living beyond their wildest dreams.
With over a decade of experience in natural and alternative medicine, Nira continues to expand her knowledge and expertise. Her life has been enriched by living in various countries—Iran, Canada, the United States, and the Netherlands—and she now resides in the vibrant and futuristic city of Dubai. Fluent in Persian and English, with a strong proficiency in French, Dutch, and Arabic, she brings a rich multicultural perspective to her work.
A proud holistic mother of two healthy daughters, Nira’s passions extend beyond her professional life. She delights in cooking nourishing meals inspired by diverse cultures, walking barefoot on the beach, swimming, and practicing Kundalini yoga and Qigong. Daily meditation and spiritual practices are central to her well-being. As an active member of the Biohacker’s community, Nira stays at the forefront of cutting-edge health innovations and regularly attends wellness events around the world.

Testimonials
“I’m often disappointed with service providers (e.g. their knowledge is dated, they do the minimum, they’re in a hurry), so positive customer experiences really stand out. My consultation with Nira was… well… excellent!
I found Nira to be a very personable young woman passionate about her work. She was very considerate during our dialog, taking the time necessary to make sure she was being understood (“Is that clear”? “Do you have any questions about that”? “Please stop me if I’m unclear”).
Other words that come to mind when I think about Nira during our consult: fun, caring, comprehensive, contagious enthusiasm… truly a pleasant, helpful, and educational experience.
Thanks, Nira – and thanks Wendy for aligning yourself with a practitioner of such caliber.”

– Wilhelmina B. (Netherlands)“I have gained more energy and have a better outlook on life thanks to the wonderful guidance from Nira. Her intuitive powers and knowledge have been so helpful in my healing journey. I would highly recommend Nira as she has a gift of intuition of what her clients need along with her vast knowledge of the mind-body connection and healing. She is able to use her skills in pendulum testing to help her clients know what they need in terms of supplements, therapies, and healing techniques. I like her kindness, knowledge, and supportive nature. I always felt cared for and had a better outlook on my healing after our sessions.”
– Shirley P. (Canada)“Nira is more than just a knowledgeable and very educated holistic practitioner. She brings her whole self to every session, she is there for you as a professional as well as a compassionate person. Her sessions are well structured and she goes into detail for you to understand the root causes as well as suggested recommended steps. Based on Nira’s advice, my hair is getting back to its original volume, my skin is clear and glowing, improved digestion and hormonal balance, my energy levels are higher and I experience a higher quality of sleep. I am more calm and more naturally aware of what is good for me.”
– Sonia H. (Slovakia)“My biggest improvement from working with Nira was being able to sleep again without sleeping tablets. This is a miracle for me as I have not been able to sleep without pharmaceutical sleeping tablets for more than a decade and thought I would never be able to sleep naturally again! I would recommend Nira as I always felt supported by her. She is kind, and knowledgeable, and goes out of her way to give you her best. I liked that I did not feel judged by Nira, instead, her advice and guidance were warm and supportive. I always looked forward to seeing her at our next appointment.”
