Health Professionals in Portland, OR

Hi, I'm Sharon, a functional medicine nutritionist and CNS candidate. I help people struggling with chronic health issues like gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, acid reflux, blood sugar imbalance, inflammation, and poor energy finally see symptom resolution and improved quality of life. I don’t believe in restrictive diets, extreme workout routines, or rigid wellness plans. Instead, I use a root-cause approach to help you develop sustainable diet and lifestyle changes to help you feel your best.

My greatest joy comes from empowering individuals and families to live vibrant, healthy lives. While honoring your unique preferences and wisdom, I inspire people of all ages to live fully, peacefully, and with awareness. Partnering with nature, I use natural remedies, acupuncture, craniosacral, diet, lifestyle, and homeopathy to promote optimal health; while also tending the mental/emotional connections to your health. Patients come to me who want to explore the ways in which their body is communicating to them so that we can find ways to restore health and freedom.

With 26 years experience, I have a skilled, intuitive sense of touch. My specialties include trigger point massage (NMT), craniosacral therapy, and Bowen Therapy. Most of my clients see me for regular stress management or postural and overuse issues resulting in muscle pain. With respect to pressure I will listen to your tissues and assess what is needed. I accept motor vehicle accident cases and can bill for this directly. I am also a Mayo Clinic Certified Wellness Coach and offer health and wellness coaching sessions.

I practice an intuitive art form rooted in scientific knowledge. Traditional medicine does not specialize in treating the myofascial restrictions that may be involved in chronic pain conditions or structural dysfunction. The tried and true techniques of deep tissue massage and myofascial release aim to restore the normal functioning of fascia by breaking up the glue that binds these adhesions. I do this by applying slow, sustained pressure, gradually working up to the threshold of what you can tolerate.

Neurofeedback and Naturopathic medicine. A physician with experience in healthcare and counseling, I offer a unique healing opportunity to my patients. My insightful, supportive, and comprehensive approach honors your wisdom and preferences, while getting to the root of the problem(s) and stress you're experiencing. Women with hormonal/menstrual/menopausal problems, fatigue, anxiety, depression, digestive distress, acne, chronic pain, infertility or weight problems, headaches/migraines, benefit from the unique blend of nutritional, botanical, and emotional support I use to help you come back into balance.

Our mission is to promote health and well-being with personalized, evidence-based medical nutrition therapy. We love working with people at any point in their healing journey. Whether you are just starting or are in need of some fine-tuning, we are here to help along the way.

Raina Monet Lasse is a naturopathic doctor that takes a caring, holistic approach to healthcare.

She helps patients connect with the courage and self-knowledge needed to develop and maintain a meaningful and rewarding life.

At East West College in Portland, Oregon; I completed the 801 hour program specializing in Myofascial Realignment while including modalities in Trigger Point, Postural Assessments, PNF, Deep Tissue, Neuromuscular Therapy, and Structural Integration. I was on the path towards nursing working in the Trauma Unit. There, I realized that my true healing potential to assist others along their unique journey towards ultimate well being, and my healing intentions was best expressed through the power of touch. I now focus my practice mostly for those experiencing chronic pain, motor vehicle accidents, and post surgery as well as those in sports training.

If you're considering acupuncture for the first time, it's important to look for someone you feel comfortable with, someone you can trust. I practiced in Los Angeles, Santa Monica & Beverly Hills for 15 yrs before moving to Portland in 2016. Over 23 yrs of practice has taught me how to treat many different, complex health issues and stress & pain management. I specialized in Infertility and Women's Health for many years & still provide on-site acupuncture for IVF patients the day of their embryo transfer. Home visits are available if you can't come in for treatment. Reach out with questions to see if I may be able to help you.

At Point to Health Acupuncture I offer personalized, compassionate, and effective healthcare.

I have found that using these modalities in conjunction with each other provides lasting results. I also strive to help patients have the tools and education they need to do home care, and maintenance care on their own. My goal is to help people be pain free and reach their optimal health potential. Call me today for a free consultation.
