downtown seattle's home for personalized, integrative care: acupuncture, herbs, and functional medicine
Conditions List
Osteoporosis and Bone Health
Bone density responds to the hormonal, metabolic, and constitutional signals we can measure and treat. We address the Kidney-root of bone deficiency with acupuncture, herbal medicine, and targeted functional support.
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine are well-studied adjuncts for Parkinson's — improving tremor, rigidity, gait, and non-motor symptoms alongside your neurologist's care.
Cognitive decline has upstream drivers — vascular, inflammatory, metabolic, and hormonal — that are addressable. We support brain health actively, working alongside your neurologist on the terrain that standard care doesn't reach.
Knee pain — whether from arthritis, injury, or overuse — responds well to acupuncture. We treat the local joint, the biomechanical chain above and below it, and the inflammatory terrain that keeps it from healing.
Obstruction during sleep isn't only a CPAP problem — phlegm-dampness, Spleen deficiency, and upper airway tone all respond to acupuncture and herbal medicine.
Chronic lung obstruction is driven by decades of inflammation — we support lung Qi, reduce phlegm burden, and improve breathing capacity alongside your pulmonologist.
Male factors contribute to half of infertility. Sperm health responds to the months before conception — we improve the drivers behind the semen analysis.
An enlarged prostate is driven by decades of hormonal and metabolic signals. We support that terrain alongside proper urological evaluation — never instead of it.
ED is often an early vascular and metabolic warning, not just a bedroom issue. We treat the circulation, hormones, and stress underneath — and flag cardiovascular risk.
Low T affects energy, mood, muscle, and drive — and usually has fixable drivers beyond age. We measure the full picture to optimal and treat what suppressed it.
Vertigo attacks, fluctuating hearing, and ear fullness from inner-ear fluid dysregulation — often with a hidden migraine driver. We treat the triggers, not just the attacks.
CIRS is chronic, biotoxin-driven inflammation that will not switch off — most often from water-damaged buildings. We remove the exposure and clear it in the right order.
Fingers that blanch and go numb in the cold are over-reactive vessels. We calm the reaction and warm circulation — while making sure nothing autoimmune is missed.
Hair loss is usually a systemic clue — thyroid, ferritin, hormones, stress. We read those to the levels hair actually needs, not just the lab’s lower limit.
UTI-like pain with negative cultures is often interstitial cystitis — a multi-driver syndrome of the bladder lining, nerves, mast cells, and pelvic floor. We treat all of it.
UTIs that keep coming back point to a vulnerable terrain, not bad luck. We treat the acute infection with respect and rebuild what keeps letting them in.
Cholesterol is more than one number. We look at particles, inflammation, and insulin resistance — the fuller picture of risk — in partnership with your physician.
Numb, tingling hands are a compressed nerve — and often a swelling-and-tension problem with systemic roots. We relieve the pressure before reaching for surgery.
Stubborn heel pain is rarely just the heel. We treat the whole chain — calf, fascia, mechanics, and circulation — so the tissue can finally heal.
A hyper-reactive body responding to foods, smells, and stress. We find what is filling the histamine bucket — gut, DAO, estrogen, mold, triggers — rather than chasing each reaction.
Sudden facial weakness, treated early. After your physician rules out stroke, acupuncture is one of the classic, well-supported tools for facial-nerve recovery.
Quitting is physical, not just willpower. Acupuncture, including the ear-based addiction protocol, lowers the cravings and withdrawal so your effort can win.
The years-long transition where most hormonal symptoms actually live. We read fluctuating hormones against your symptoms and to optimal — not a one-day, in-range snapshot.
Seasonal depression is a real physiological response to lost light. We prepare before the season turns — light, rhythm, vitamin D, thyroid, blood sugar, and acupuncture.
Acupuncture and functional medicine alongside your fertility clinic. Preparing the terrain in the months before, and supporting you through stimulation, transfer, and the two-week wait.
Daily, complete elimination is the goal. We find the signal that stopped the system — thyroid, motility, microbiome, magnesium — rather than just adding fiber.
The science on aging has advanced dramatically in the last decade. We now understand that much of what we call "normal aging" is actually the cumulative expression of modifiable processes
Eczema — clinically called atopic dermatitis — is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by a defective epidermal barrier, immune dysregulation, and a heightened inflammatory response to triggers that wouldn't affect uncompromised skin.
Psoriasis is systemic inflammation that shows on the skin. We address the gut-skin axis, metabolic terrain, and inflammatory load alongside your dermatologic care.
Pityriasis rosea is a self-limiting rash tied to viral reactivation when immune surveillance dips. We ease the rash and support the recovery underneath.
About 95% of adults are carrying Epstein-Barr virus. Most got it as kids or teenagers, sometimes with a recognizable mononucleosis episode and sometimes silently
Tired but not tired enough to explain it? Labs normal but you don’t feel like yourself? That 70-percent state is real, it has drivers, and it is exactly what this medicine was built to find.
The position from clinicians and patients dealing with chronic Lyme is different: persistent infection is real, often involves co-infections, and requires a much more nuanced approach than two weeks of doxycycline.
Cosmetic acupuncture and microneedling that work with your skin’s own biology — supporting collagen, circulation, and tone for skin that looks like you, healthier.
Reflux happens when the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) — a ring of muscle at the junction between the esophagus and stomach — fails to close properly.
