Functional Conditions

Whole-System Support for Functional Health Concerns

 

Some conditions are hard to name. Others have names—but few answers. Whether you’re navigating fatigue, pain, hormonal shifts, digestive issues, or chronic imbalance, health concerns often stem from deeper systemic patterns in the body’s terrain.

At ECHO, we offer care that goes beyond symptom management. Rooted in East Asian Medicine and principles of holistic care, our treatments support the interconnected systems that shape how you feel, heal, and function over time: your nervous system, digestion, immune response, hormones, mood, and sleep.

This work isn’t about “fixing” one part—it’s about listening to the whole picture. We help restore rhythm, flow, and resilience from the inside out.

Common Functional Concerns We Support

  • Fatigue, burnout, or low energy despite rest

  • Digestive distress (bloating, irregularity, food sensitivity)

  • Hormonal shifts (PMS, PCOS, perimenopause, low libido)

  • Mood instability, brain fog, or difficulty concentrating

  • Chronic or mysterious pain not explained by imaging

  • Sleep disruption, difficulty winding down, or unrefreshing rest

  • Nervous system dysregulation, overstimulation, or emotional reactivity

  • Feeling “off” or disconnected from your body despite normal labs
     

Our Approach

Health concerns rarely have a single cause—and the body rarely heals through force. We begin with curiosity and connection, tailoring each session to your needs and goals. Care may include:

  • Acupuncture to regulate underlying systems and promote internal balance

  • Herbal medicine to support digestion, hormones, energy, and clarity

  • Moxibustion to rebuild what’s been depleted and enhance overall vitality


This work is often sought by those who’ve tried everything and still don’t feel like themselves. We meet you there—with nuance, care, and respect for the complexity of your experience.
 

What to Expect

You don’t need a perfect label or plan to begin. Whether you’re navigating a chronic condition or sensing early signs of imbalance, this care offers a space to explore what’s underneath—and begin to shift it.
