I know that everyone has their own tastes when it comes to personal care, but do yourself a favor…read moreand don't use this woman as your doctor. I've had a number of bad doctor experiences over the years, but this was by far the worst. Dr. Larson was recommended to me when I first moved to the Portland area and didn't know where to start when it came to finding a doctor. I've been lucky enough to stay pretty healthy over the past few years, so I didn't have to see her often, but I don't think there was ever a time I walked out of her office thinking 'Wow, I'm so glad this woman is my health care provider.' The straw that broke this camel's back was a recent experience over the 4th of July holiday. I called the office on the 4th (which was a Thursday) and left a message, acknowledging the holiday and asking to please be called ASAP. I did not get a call until the following Wednesday, which is an eternity later when you're sick. The other staff her is generally uninterested and slightly unpleasant, and when I signed up for their online services I started getting spam emails and phone calls. In the time that I used Dr. Larson as my physician, she referred me to an incompetent ENT who retired a few weeks after seeing me (so glad I trusted my gut and got out of there before engaging in procedures that would have needed months of follow up). Maybe we're getting too personal now, but my point is that this was the worst doctor I've ever been to, and people shouldn't have to suffer through mediocre health care, especially when there are awesome doctors out there (and it's not like we don't pay for the visits).

I am kind of stunned to find such a negative review of this doctor here. Dr. Larson was my doctor…read morefor about 2 years when I was a professor living in Portland and I found her medical care to be excellent. I saw her on at least 5 occasions, and each time, I found her staff professional and pleasant. During examinations, she answered all of my questions thoughtfully, and I found her very personable in her interactions with me. Dr. Larson's style of care I would describe as non-interventionist and holistic: she was not eager to prescribe medications for every little thing, and she asked me a lot of questions not just about specific ailments but about my broader health and well-being. I wish I had written a review before I moved away from Portland since I would remember more specific details, but I truly miss her medical care and expertise. I found her superbly professional and knowledgeable. And this is a more minor issue, but I found the fact that her offices are located in the ground floor of a building that was formerly a large home very comforting. The examination rooms were all properly clinical, certainly, but the rooms had real furniture and were warm and comfortable. In some ways this felt like visiting a traditional family doctor. Medical care has become, if anything, too impersonal and clinical. I really appreciated how Dr. Larson took care to create an environment for her patients that felt more like a welcoming space for her practice. I really can't recommend her highly enough.

With that being said, I hold true to the cliche "It's easier to help others than it is to help yourself" haha and I'm glad I met Linda to help facilitate my healing journey. When I find someone like her, I hold on to em! I had my first akashic records reading with her summer of 2018, and that reading was sooo incredibly helpful in terms of the support and guidance I was looking for in my then current phase of life. 4 days ago I had another helpful reading, as well as a clearing from her. All that she cleared is what I have been sensing was around/in my enegetic body for a while and it was POWERFUL. Since then, I've had some flu like symptoms and my sinuses are draining like the Niagra Falls! I welcome this whole heartedly because I know my body is just clearing out all the crap I carried for so long! The best part about this all though, is that SINCE 4 DAYS AGO immediately after my clearing, I started to experience more flow, clarity, abundance in my life. I understand the removal of unconscious energetic blockages can facilitate IMMEDIATE flow/attraction and it is great to witness! I know this is long, but I need ppl to understand how beneficial seeing Linda can be for your life! I'd recommend her over and over again *blows nose* LoveLight&Laughter! C.B.

Ladies who have yet to reach menopause…read more I've been feeling sh!tty for years (at least 10). I recently learned you can go through perimenopause for up to 20 years! Not through my regular doctors...but I stumbled onto a clinic where we tested my levels of hormones. My regular doctor has done this for a while now...but I'm not quite "low enough" for them to consider any treatment... ...and I still have a regular period. All other hormone levels low, but not "low enough". Keep this in mind as I tell you my testosterone level has been literally zero or barely on the scale for at least 14 years. This first adjustment, we added testosterone. HOLY S#!T! What a difference! I don't hurt all over in my joints, I sleep great, and the brain fog (almost unbearable!) lifted. Also added were supplements for estrogen enhancement. We recently added thyroid meds because I am (and have been) low in thyroid hormones. My brain fog is completely GONE! I can't believe how it's gone! I love being able to think and speak again without stumbling for word and memory. I have shared all of this with my PCP, who, at no fault of hers, scratches her head at this. They only go by their specified levels, not by levels other labs report, and per her, "We really don't do anything about hormones". I wanted to give POSITIVE testimony on this treatment from Melange Integrative Medicine. Erin has changed my life There IS someone out there that can help!!! (age: 54)

So, when I'm sitting on my friends couch and contemplating if I should exercise, then kinda seriously injuring my back while not moving and still sitting on the couch...I feel like that's a sign...that I should go to the chiropractor and also start working out before my appendages start randomly falling off due to disuse. I had been to Align Studios for a yoga class just a week or so prior. The instructors (one of whom was also the chiropractor I saw) were quite knowledgeable and the class was amazing. I also kind of wanted to die in the middle of it, but in the best way, because the class was challenging and strenuous and I was covered in sweat. I really appreciated the adjustments and direction that the instructors made and I felt like I received great workout but also ended with a nice yoga vibe (I don't think this is a real thing, but I'm making it one). The studio itself is a beautiful and relaxing space with plenty spaces for bags, changing rooms, lots of sunlight, and they also sell a small selection of yoga supplies and essential oils (and maybe other stuff? There were cookies, so I was distracted). EVERYONE was incredibly friendly and very welcoming. There was also a concurrently running Lululemon trunk show and I purchased an amazing travel blanket scarf with ARMHOLES! But I digress... When deciding where to go for my first chiropractic experience, I decided to go back to Align Studios/Health. I called on a Sunday (What chiropractor is even open on a sunday!?!? bonus points!!!) and made an appointment for the next day. The person at the desk was super nice and very knowledgeable. After a very quick wait, Dr. Paul escorted me into his office/examination room. He understood that this was my first visit to a chiropractor ever and was both clear and thorough in his explanation. While I don't think that anyone enjoys getting an injury treated, this was certainly a relatively quick and painless visit. This is where the review is going to get very unintelligent, because I don't remember things ever. Dr. Paul used some type of pulsating machine combined with heat to make my back swell less, then he did some weird push-y thing on my back, then he cracked my back/neck. All I know is I felt significantly less pain then when I came in. I made a follow up appointment (I think this will take maybe four visits, per Dr. Paul) and promptly received an email confirmation. Obviously I'll be back as I'm the kind of person that breaks herself while sitting still on a couch, but I feel better about the healing process thanks to my experience at Align Studios/Health. I can definitely see myself signing up for more yoga classes and I definitely rank this class among the top three yoga classes I've attended. tl;dr Go here for yoga or chiropractic services, because this place is awesome and everyone is super nice and also knows their stuff!!!!

There were many times I tried other chiropractors. I would commit to treatment only to feel let down, never quite pain free. I was learning to accept a constant level of discomfort. Most recently in August something got stuck and I could not bend my spine forward. I saw a chiropractor several times a week for several weeks. I also received 1 or 2 massages a week over that time. Nothing helped. At that time I kept thinking of Dr. Scott. I looked him up on Google and could not believe he was as close as Dover, NH. My first visit was October 4th. Between adjustments and wise guidance from Dr. Scott and incredible massage treatments from Tao I am healing. I am so much better thanks to the Sardonicus Family. There really is no place I would rather go for care. There is really no end to the good things I have to say about these two men.

Back in July, after listening to me complain about my back (and witnessing me yelp out in pain when…read moreI stood up from dinner), a friend recommended that I try a chiropractor for my back - or maybe acupuncture. She had been going here for years and swore by them. So, I made an appointment and kept it! And, you know - here it is about 5 months later and I'm really glad I did. I met with Dr. Cayer for an initial assessment which included x-rays and thermo scans. From here, he sat down and showed my where my "problem" areas were and shared with me a treatment plan. It seemed like an aggressive plan - 4 weeks with 3 visits per week, 4 weeks at 2 per week, and then onto a maintenance plan of once a week Now, I must admit a couple things. One - getting "cracked" scared the crap out of me. And, two - I wasn't really sure I believe it would help. Well - the getting "cracked" part is still very weird to me, but I definitely believe it works. My back is SO MUCH better. I have bad days here and there, but they are few and far between. And, the pain doesn't stop me from doing anything anymore. I look forward to my weekly visit - and it only takes 5 minutes. In and out! I've also used their massage therapy services and Mindy has given me the best massages I've had - at a much lower price point than any of the fancy spas I've visited in the past. Definitely give this place a try! My only regret is that I didn't come sooner.
