 Ryan Padnuk

A Florida native, Ryan Padnuk has spent a lifetime pursuing his interests and passion for health, wellness, personal growth, and spirituality.  As a student at Stetson University, he began practicing Qi Gong, Tai Qi, and Yoga, which ignited his curiosities, and put his feet firmly on the path of exploring the world’s traditional wisdom systems and healing arts.

During his university studies, Ryan was introduced by his professor of world religions, Dr. Phillip Lucas to Ma Jaya, the humanitarian and founder of intentional community Sacred Kashi in Sebastian, FL.  Ryan embraced the opportunity to study with Ma, and learn how an integrated life of service, immersed in the teachings and wisdom of people like John Milton, founder of The Way of Nature, could guide and further develop his unfolding path. It was a vibrant time in the history of Sacred Kashi, and Ryan took his insights from the community into professional life as a Firefighter/Paramedic.

For ten years, Ryan served with Brevard County Fire Rescue as a First Responder working his way up to the rank of Lieutenant, in addition to two years as per diem Firefighter/Paramedic with the Town of Indian River Shores.  Serving his community and working alongside fellow first responders in some of the most complex, stressful, and tragic human scenes was a challenging and fulfilling experience. After twelve years, Ryan took the many skills he developed on the job into the next phase of his journey into the healing arts.

He began apprenticing with pioneering holistic healthcare practitioner and NSEV Healing & Acupuncture founder, Daniel J. Atchison-Nevel in 2015, in Dan’s NSEV Healing & Acupuncture Clinic in Miami Beach.  Ryan felt an instant connection to Dan and received a warm welcome into the NSEV community of practitioners and healers founded by Dan, as well as the opportunity to experience Dan’s NSEV Healing & Acupuncture system from the inside out.  At the same time, Ryan was training to be an acupuncturist at ATOM, the Atlantic Institute of Oriental Medicine in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.

Ryan is now board certified as an Acupuncture Physician and an NSEV Advanced Practitioner.  He has opened NSEV Healing & Acupuncture Vero Beach, where he is grateful to serve patients and their families.
