Staffed by a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with Functional Medicine Nutrition Specialist (FMNS) credentialing and a Certified Nutrition Specialist™ carrying 15+ years of clinical work, Sea + Spruce Functional Nutrition™ operates a dual-location practice out of Newport Ave and Seattle. The team specializes in root-cause work for digestive disorders, autoimmune conditions, and hormone imbalance, building protocols from advanced testing — gut microbiome panels, organic acids, food sensitivity, heavy-metal toxins, and nutrigenomic analysis — a scope of diagnostic inquiry that parallels the TCM-based differential work at Nopalita Acupuncture. Telehealth delivery serves California, Washington, and additional states, with hybrid in-person availability at the OB office. Protocols integrate nutrition, targeted supplementation, sleep architecture, stress physiology, and nervous-system regulation, and trauma-gut-immune axis dysregulation surfaced during intake is often co-managed with the somatic trauma work done at Pain Trauma Institute San Diego. Clients typically progress through 3-to-6-month structured programs rather than episodic visits. A full functional-medicine workup combines comprehensive specialty lab testing with a multi-system protocol sequencing digestive repair, detoxification support, and hormone recalibration over a single arc.
