Kenshō Health operates a care-navigation and provider-discovery platform focused on holistic medicine, curating over 2,000 providers into a single marketplace. Its flagship product, Care Matching, leverages the company’s proprietary discovery platform to provide personalized provider recommendations based on symptoms, goals, and preferences. The provider platform now includes Group Practice profiles and lists launch partners such as Paloma Health, Adventure Recovery, and Complete Wellness NYC. The company plans to launch full-feature telehealth later this year to extend education, provider discovery, consultations, booking, billing, and follow-ups. Kenshō positions itself as the largest holistic care navigation and matching platform in the country. Financially, it recently raised a $3.5M seed round and has brought total funding to nearly $5.5M; the proceeds will be used to build the team, drive patient demand, and capture provider supply. Kenshō Health operates an invite-only, subscription-based platform for holistic healthcare providers to list services and share knowledge, and has compiled a research-backed guide to holistic medicine. The company requires provider background checks, verifies credentials, affirms research-backed methods, and vets peer references and clients before listing. Kenshō launched into private beta and initially features providers from institutions including Stanford, Harvard and Columbia. Co-founders Krista Berlincourt and Danny Steiner drew on personal ties to holistic health in building the product; Berlincourt previously treated chronic adrenal failure holistically and both founders have backgrounds in fintech and media. The startup positions itself against wellness purveyors it deems unscientific and aims to elevate standards in the natural health sector. Kenshō raised $1.3 million in seed funding from Crosscut and Female Founders Fund and is rolling out a subscription model amid a large global wellness market.
