Functional Medicine is a systems-based approach that seeks to identify and address the root causes of imbalance. It looks at the body as an interconnected ecosystem—where symptoms are not isolated issues, but signals of deeper patterns. By considering factors like nutrition, lifestyle, environment, and genetics, Functional Medicine supports long-term health and vitality from the inside out.

ACUPUNCTURE + FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE
This integrative session combines the regulatory support of acupuncture with the investigative lens of Functional Medicine—offering both immediate ease and long-term insight. Acupuncture works to release holding patterns and restore the body’s natural flow, while Functional Medicine looks at deeper systems and root causes, connecting symptoms to larger patterns of imbalance.
Your visit includes a comprehensive intake and acupuncture treatment, along with individualized guidance on next steps—whether through lab testing, dietary shifts, herbal support, or lifestyle changes. Together, these two frameworks offer a powerful path back to vitality. Acupuncture-only treatment is also available, learn more.

Meet Jelena Nikolajevic [ L.A.c, MSTOM ]
Founder, Boketto Wellness
Jelena studied acupuncture and herbal medicine at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in New York City, receiving comprehensive training in both Eastern and Western medical systems. Her studies covered a wide range of specialties, including pediatrics, orthopedics, dermatology, oncology, geriatrics, urology, and gynecology. Outside the classroom, she deepened her practice through hands-on study with seasoned clinicians in Japanese acupuncture, shiatsu, and sports-focused techniques.
In addition to her training in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jelena is also trained in Functional Medicine—a systems-based, integrative approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of imbalance. Her practice draws from both of these frameworks, blending the diagnostic tools and treatments of TCM with the personalized, investigative lens of Functional Medicine.
Jelena’s clinical focus includes orthopedics, anxiety, stress, digestive issues, insomnia, migraines, menstrual and genitourinary disorders, low immunity, asthma, and night sweats. Her integrative treatment style incorporates acupuncture, herbal therapy, nutritional and lifestyle counseling, applied kinesiology, trigger point therapy, and manual techniques like tui na.
