Dr. Rofagha – Neurological Rehabilitation Specialist
November, 2014
In addition to practicing complete traditional chiropractic care, Rofagha incorporates a “no boundaries” mindset in her work and is one of the few doctors in the area that is trained to perform Neurological Rehabilitation, an emerging new collection of non-invasive techniques designed to evaluate and rehabilitate nerves in the body.
Currently, Dr. Rofagha is completing the third of the three Modules of Quantum Neurology® Rehabilitation Training. Developed by Dr. George Gonzalez, DC, QN, this advanced healing concept uses the patient’s own Nervous System to guide their rehabilitation.
Also trained and certified in NRCT™ (Neurological Relief Centers Technique), Dr. Rofagha remains committed to seeking out new, forward-thinking non-invasive techniques such as these to further help her patients suffering from chronic pain, injuries and conditions. Though each body is different, when these progressive practices work, the results are often described by patients as miraculous and immediate.
“I was at my wit’s end because the constant pain that traveled throughout my body for decades was becoming unbearable,” said Karen Singer, a 20-plus year Fibromyalgia sufferer who recently visited Dr. Rofagha for testing and therapy that included specialized techniques that stimulate the Nervous System, Infrared Light Therapy and Vibration Therapy. The change happened when, through Dr. Rofagha’s efforts, her neck muscle got stronger. “The intensity of the pain in my back went from a level seven to a three within 15 minutes. For the first time in years, I left a doctor’s office with less pain and more hope.”
These non-intrusive techniques relieve stress on the entire spinal cord with gentle pressure, allowing practitioners, such as Dr. Rofagha, to test how efficiently the nerves are controlling a patient’s muscles, senses, organs and sensation of skin. The sensations control what a person feels, including pain. The goal is to improve the quality of information being sent along the entire path of the nervous system.
Once the problem areas are determined, the restoration of accurate communication of the nerve ensues. This type of care makes the body more aware of what is not functioning correctly and facilitates the nerves to reprogram themselves so that the body can heal quickly and naturally.
“I strive to identify the roots of my patients’ problems and what techniques they respond to, not only focusing on the symptoms,” said Dr. Rofagha, who works with people with a wide range of mild-to-debilitating conditions including Fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Migraines, Anxiety, Fatigue, Insomnia, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy and more as well as Neuropathy and people suffering from nerve-related pain such as pain radiation, tingling and throbbing sensations which are collectively referred to as “a neurological condition.”
“I respect what science and medicine can do but sometimes it is not enough. People realize they have a choice now, with all of the emerging techniques breaking ground in pain management and neurological rehabilitation; which is exciting. Patients are optimistic, after exhausting traditional remedies and medicine, that there is something that can still be done to potentially relieve their chronic pain and discomfort.”
Dr. Rofagha’s interest in progressive non-invasive healing techniques was born years ago from her own frustration and desire to help alleviate some of her mother’s life-altering pain. It has since grown into a passion to help as many people as possible. Currently patients throughout the San Gabriel Valley, San Fernando Valley and Greater Los Angeles travel to Rofagha’s Pasadena office for this one-of-a-kind-treatment.
This is what some of her patients have to say about the treatment:
“I learned about Quantum Neurology a few years ago from a primary MD because my daughter was going to have surgery to release her tethered spinal cord. The MD though it would be prudent to use Quantum Neurology after surgery to strengthen my daughter’s nervous system. I chose Dr. Rofagha and we have been thrilled with her and her sensitive and extensive care of my daughter’s condition. Not only has she been able to strengthen my daughter’s nervous system; she is now implementing muscle lengthening with my daughter. We have been coming one to two times a week for treatment and we have seen significant increases in her flexibility without having to do an hour a day of stretching a day, which would have been my daughter’s other option. Not only has my daughter gained strength and flexibility she has also improved emotionally and mentally with Quantum Neurology. I would highly recommend Dr. Rofagha for especially for any neurological or pain symptoms you might be experiencing.” – Kara Gordon, RN, BSN
“Needless to say, I hold the work that Dr. Nazee Rofagha D.C. is doing in high esteem. I had a great time working with her on the therapies. She has a very pleasant demeanor, and provides a positive environment for her patients. Nerve rehabilitation is a terrific option for people with spinal cord injuries.” – Richard Bell
“I’m going to sound like a late-night TV commercial here, but I swear it’s true: that treatment fixed not only my lower back, but pretty much every area of my body that was acting up – and Dr. Rofagha did it without ever manipulating a single bone. She treated the nerves instead (nothing invasive or electrical) and basically reactivated whole segments of my nervous system that had become compromised. I left feeling lighter, straighter, and better than I had in a while. And when I got to Tai Chi class later that day, I felt my energy flowing much more freely and fluidly than it ever had before. The difference was so dramatic that tears came to my eyes – such a quick change, after so many years of practice! I’m not much of a medical expert, so I can’t tell you the finer points of how or why Dr. Rofagha’s treatment works. All I know is that it does work, it makes a clear difference, and it greatly reduces my stiffness and pain. I’ve become somewhat of an evangelist for Dr. Rofagha now, sending all my aching middle-aged friends her way. ‘Just go see her,’ I say. ‘I promise, she’ll help you.’”

After years of suffering with Fibromyalgia, Karen Singer of Sherman Oaks knew it was well worth the drive to the Pasadena office of Dr. Nazee Rofagha, DC, one of the few doctors in the area that is trained to perform Neurological Rehabilitation, an emerging new collection of non-invasive techniques designed to evaluate and rehabilitate nerves in the body.
Dr. Rofagha tested Singer and administered therapy that included specialized techniques that stimulate the Nervous System, Infrared Light Therapy, and Vibration Therapy.
“The intensity of the pain in my back went from a seven to a three within 15 minutes,” said Singer. “For the first time in years, I left a doctor’s office with less pain and more hope.”
A few weeks and appointments later, Singer feels much less pain and declares daily “It’s working!”
Currently, Rofagha is completing the third of the three Modules of Quantum Neurology® Rehabilitation Training. This advanced healing concept, developed by Dr. George Gonzalez, DC, QN, uses the patient’s own Nervous System to guide their rehabilitation.
Also a NRCT™ (Neurological Relief Centers Technique) specialist, Rofagha remains committed to seeking out new, non-invasive techniques to further help her patients suffering from chronic pain, injuries, and conditions.
Rofagha’s patients include people with Fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Migraines, Anxiety, Fatigue, Insomnia, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, Neuropathy, and nerve-related pain such as pain radiation, tingling, and throbbing sensations which are collectively referred to as a neurological condition.
“I respect what science and medicine can do but sometimes it is not enough,” said Rofagha. “With all of the emerging techniques breaking ground in pain management and neurological rehabilitation, people have more options now.”

Karen Singer has been in pain nearly every day since the death of her husband 19 years ago. Not just the pain of loss, but also physical pain, eventually diagnosed as Fibromyalgia. It was painful to do everything and anything.
“My husband would look at me, and say, ‘You’re in pain,’” she recalled recently. Since his passing and the onset of her disease, every day had been a struggle. Until recently.
Any chronic pain sufferer will tell you this. When you live with pain every single day of your life, sometimes even the tiniest glimmer of hope is a form of relief. Whether it’s simple joint pain or the pain from cancer, the question is the same: When will the pain end?
Dr. Nazee Rofagha, Doctor of Chiropractic, hears this question every day in her office. She also knows that so much pain goes either little noticed or rarely treated. But as her patients will tell anyone who asks, it’s more than hope, it’s results.

As reported in the Harvard Gazette last week, a new study by researchers at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) had new results linked to Fibromyalgia. Their results will appear in the journal Pain and has been released online.
Half of the group of patients tested with fibromyalgia were found to have damage to nerve fibers in their skin and other evidence of a disease called small-fiber polyneuropathy (SFPN).
“This provides some of the first objective evidence of a mechanism behind some cases of fibromyalgia, and identifying an underlying cause is the first step towards finding better treatments,” says Anne Louise Oaklander, an associate professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School, director of the Nerve Injury Unit in the MGH Department of Neurology, and corresponding author of the Pain paper.
