Healing from the Inside Out: How Your Gut Holds the Key to Vibrant Health
Did you know that your gut microbiome is at the core of almost every illness? From autoimmune conditions and depression to metabolic issues and stubborn skin problems, so many of the challenges we face begin right there—in the gut. When your gut is out of balance, your entire body feels the effects.
Hi, I’m Dr. Irina Patten, Doctor of Chinese Medicine, licensed acupuncturist, and Functional Medicine practitioner. My passion lies in a root-cause approach to healing. I don’t just treat symptoms—I treat the source, helping you rediscover balance and vitality.

In my practice, I combine the profound, time-tested principles of Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture with the cutting-edge innovations of Functional Medicine. Together, these two modalities create a powerful synergy, unlocking your body’s natural ability to heal and thrive. Whether we’re working on calming your nervous system through acupuncture or diving deep into microbiome testing, this holistic approach is designed to create transformative results.
