Lovely space. Not sure when I'll return as my massage therapist there is moving on to different career. Great space. Some parking on site, but tight. On bus line near Hawthorne and SE 11th.
Also - he gives the best shiatsu massage.... as in I can't go anywhere else for "normal"(Swedish) massage because his are so amazing and I love giving him my business. He is such a sweetheart too and works wonders with insurance companies. GO SEE TOM!!!!!
All the pople here are so friendly and I love Dr. Harold. He has helped me so much after my car accident! Thank you Dr. Harold!
My initial appointment was two hours long. TWO HOURS. (Maybe one and a half.) That is what, 8 times longer than the 15 minute appointment I get at Kaiser where they take my BP and temp and call it good. I was floored at the level of attention I received - and Tom is about the nicest guy you will ever meet. When I go there I feel like he genuinely cares and is passionate about people and health.
I came to Tom last year as a self-defined anti-naturopath at her wits end and looking for a last resort. I think I even told him up front that I thought a lot of it was hooey. I am now a total convert and see him about every two months or so for a check in and massage. Why?
Dr Tom Messinger (Portland Natural Medicine) is truly amazing! He has an incredible knowledge and always takes the time to explain things to make sure that I understand what is going on with my health. I can tell that he truly cares about his patients, he is available and always returns calls promptly. He also has a great sense of humor, which makes visits even more enjoyable! I have seen countless "traditional" doctors and 3 naturopaths in the last few years but Dr Tom is the only one who really took the time to listen, thoroughly examine and analyze my health issues and used the proper tests to figure out the source of my problems. Dr Tom's first thought was that I had certain food sensitivities and he was right on. Since I changed my diet and followed Dr Tom's advice on vitamins and food supplements, I feel alive again and very energetic for the first time in about 20 years! Dr Tom also uses Shiatsu massages as part of his treatment and these massages leave you feeling very relaxed and recharged at the same time. Dr Tom also greatly improved my 9 years old daughter's health by finding out she had an extremely high allergy to many foods. She also had a viral skin infection for months that only got worse after seeing a very expensive dermatologist. Dr Tom found a simple, natural and painless inexpensive treatment that cleared the infection in a matter of weeks! He also found a natural remedy that helps her issues with staying focused. The following year, I took my 7 years old daughter to Dr Tom to address a skin problem that she had for a while. It turned out she also had many food allergies. Dr Tom Messinger is so good and gentle with children that my daughters try to find reasons to go visit him and they don't even mind getting their blood drawn by him! Dr Tom has been our family primary care provider for almost two years now and we all feel much better for it. I feel blessed to have him to care for me and my family and I would never hesitate to recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their health and/or stay healthy. Dr Tom Messinger is the best!!
Tom figured out what left my Kaiser doctors completely flummoxed. He ran tests that I thought were a bunch of hooey until they came back positive - then he completely restored my life. A year ago I was sitting in his office sobbing because doctors had always told me that my tests were neg. and they didn't know what's wrong but "it might get better when you're 60." Not good enough! Here I am, a year later, FEELING BETTER. I had... food allergies. Food allergies and leaky gut. A few weird pills and some probiotics and a change to my diet and I am off *all* my other medications. Insomnia GONE. Depression GONE. Anxiety GONE. Panic attacks GONE. Back pain GONE. Chronic fatigue GONE. Foot pains GONE. Stomach problems GONE. Sinusitis SO MUCH IMPROVED. Weight - well, that depends on whether I stick to Tom's recommendations and protocol, but you know what, I have my life back. I am so much happier and my health is put back in my own hands with decisions I can make. I can't say enough and I tell EVERYONE that has weird "stuff going on" that the doctors can't figure out (or if you were like me and working with multiple specialists that each said something different) - go see someone who treats you as a WHOLE PERSON. Go see Tom. I promise. He will change your life.
