The Sukha Asana Team
The Sukha-Asana team came together through a shared belief that wellness deserves more than a one-size-fits-all approach — and a commitment to the kind of care that actually changes how people feel.
Ayurveda is the common thread — the lens through which each practitioner understands the body, reads imbalance, and guides people back to health.
SHAHRZAD RABIE, NP, MS
Holistic Family Nurse Practitioner & Ayurvedic Specialist
Shahrzad brings over 40 years of clinical experience across women's health, ICU, oncology, and geriatric care. With advanced degrees in nursing and a Master's in Ayurveda and Integrative Health, she bridges modern medical insight with classical Ayurvedic wisdom.
After healing her own chronic stress-related GI issues through Ayurveda, Shahrzad became passionate about helping others restore balance through personalized care. Her work focuses on women's health, bone health, and graceful aging—addressing root causes rather than symptoms.
Her philosophy: Healing happens when we honor the body's innate intelligence while supporting it with both tradition and science.
Ilanna Gabriel
Licensed Massage Therapist & Clinical Ayurvedic Specialist
Illanna has spent the past decade exploring what it actually takes to calm a nervous system — her own included.
That path led her through massage therapy, craniosacral work, somatic experiencing, yoga, and Ayurveda. Not as a collection of certifications, but as a genuine search for what works. She has been practicing massage since 2017, and her curiosity has kept her learning ever since.
Her work focuses on the mind-body connection — the understanding that when we stop overriding our own signals and reconnect with our nature, the body finds its way back to balance.
It's an approach that changed her life. Now it's the work she shows up to do every day.
