After only 6 weeks of care from Michael Berger, I am experiencing renewed vitality in my physical, spiritual, and psychological well-being. Over the years, I have worked with naturopathic doctors, chiropractors, nutritionists, and other healthcare professionals. I have never experienced such positive results or authentic concern and care as with Michael Berger. I truly appreciate how he is helping me.

I have been suffering from long covid for the past 20 months. I have altered taste, which means most things taste like aluminum or suds. I have lost 18 lbs and have been suffering these affects. I love to cook, but can't taste the food when preparing food. This week I was referred to Dr. Michael Berger to seek help. He gave me a thorough assessment and recommended acupuncture. I am not a "needles" person, but I desperately needed a solution, so I agreed to the treatment recommended. He talked to me and explained everything. It didn't hurt as I feared it would. With most needles, I felt nothing. One of the needles went just under my chin, he explained that it would stimulate my tongue and hopefully help my taste. I admit that while the needle was in I felt a strange tingling around my tongue. He let me remain alone for about 20 minutes and played amazing flute music. I was so relaxed. When he returned I had to admit that I had fear for no reason. I left and thank him, not expecting anything. At night, I slept better than I had in months and when I woke up, I was hungry. I tentatively tasted some breakfast and noticed a difference. The following morning, Thanksgiving day, I began to taste so many things! Oh my gosh! I am so blessed today. I can't thank Dr. Michael Berger enough for this wonderful therapy! I can taste again and with every bite it is getting better and better. I am going to tell all my long covid friends and I want them all to visit for an acupuncture session!!

Michael is one of the most talented acupuncturists I’ve ever worked with- and I am very discerning and particular with who I trust when it comes to who needles me. He is the only practitioner that has been able to help me regulate my PCOS symptoms after almost a decade of trying. And he’s just a wonderful human being. Highly recommend.

During each treatment I feel that I am experiencing a beautifully arranged symphony. I came to have some chronic pains and such addressed, many which have been weighing down my daily life despite being worked up by some of the best healthcare systems in the country. I am on my 5th session and am taking an herbal prescription. The process has been steadly and gently increasing my quality of life in every aspect. I have not felt this good in over 15 years. The experience has been beautiful and such a relief. I hope to continue this progression.

Kim Eskelson, I was a real mess, I was referred by my Neurosurgeon rare to hear that one but also grateful my doctor recommended Dr Michael Berger. I was about 10 weeks out of back surgery laying in bed in lots of pain couldn't do anything trust me it was not the first surgery, I've had more surgery's than I care to admit and been on pain meds for more years than should ever be allowed. I normally am up and about in 4 weeks after surgery starting my healing, this time I wasn't getting better I was looking at never having a life again maybe going out on a disability or worse I would had shriveled away it was taking me down a dark path the pain was unbearable meds didn't help. I new about acupuncture and Chinese medicine from my many travels overseas in the east once I found out Dr Michael was truly trained in the old world Chinese traditions I couldn't wait to get in to see him. My first appointment I could hardly move let alone ride from Santaquin to Salt Lake City, I was a mess when I came to see Dr Mike and I managed without meds that first visit I needed him to see how I really was no hiding with medication. There are not enough words to say what he has done for me, after my first visit I felt like a giddy 10 year old boy I wanted to do everything I felt so good it has been years many years since I felt that great. I wasn't sure how my second appointment would be, I was anxious to see Dr Mike I cried with joy it was hard not to he had given my life back it was a 360 deg change from my first treatment I have had pain in areas that I never expected to go away well they are gone, I would recommend going to see Dr Michael R. Berger and stop wasting money on pain doctors, I do realize we are all different but I'm one of many that now have a life again. Thank you Dr Mike from the deepest part of my heart there are truly no words just tears of joy because I have no other way to express how you have helped me.

I am currently into my first month of treatment for severe neck issues, cranial-cervical ligament laxity that allows the cervical vertebrae to move around a bit, with disabling side effects. Hands down, Dr. Berger is the best acupuncturist I have ever met. He is kind, caring, and a patient listener. The treatments have helped me immeasurably. So very thankful I have found him! Also, I cannot say enough about the Wabbo Moxibustion Heat Therapy patches I purchased from him! They are better than lidocaine and have helped me get up and get back to work! Thank you, Dr. Berger!

Unbelievable in the best way. My condition is so rare that western medicine treats each case like patient zero and over the last few weeks I've watched myself go from being owned by my symptoms to having days where I forget they're with me. I'm feeling like the self I thought I lost years ago..through carefully placed needles of all things.Mike is a friendly, down to earth, and intelligent guy who has a mind for fixing things and it's obvious he takes his craft like it's a life missionThe scientist in me wants to poke holes in all of this and find other reasons that my condition would be improving but I just can't. I've been on medication for years and this is the only variableIf you even suspect that something like this could work then do not hesitate to give him a call and see what's on offer. You won't regret it

Amazing! I am four weeks into a treatment plan and doing so well. My condition has improved drastically and I'm completely off the medications I've been taking for over 8 years. I am feeling so much better, all of my symptoms are improving, and I feel the best I've ever felt. My mood, skin, sleep, and other symptoms have taken a total 180 since my first visit. I really can't believe the progress I've seen so far.Dr. Berger is incredibly knowledgable and a great doctor, he really listens to everything you say to develop a treatment plan that will work for you AND address the ROOT CAUSE of your problems! He even brings up diet/lifestyle recommendations to complement the treatment plan. This is so unlike the modern American medical system that ignores all of your concerns and just wants to sell you a pill. Can't say enough great things about my experience here. If you are hesitating trying out traditional Chinese medicine, I urge you to try out Dr. Berger! You won't be disappointed.

The best place, hands down, to go for acupuncture. Michael Berger is so talented and has so much education and experience in his field. He has lived in China, taught and studied in China, and has the absolute perfect ability to understand what your body needs to heal. I will go again and again and again. He has helped me with arthritis in my hands, a torn ligament in my knee, shoulder pain, headaches, and anxiety. If you are considering acupuncture, go to someone like Mike who has the right training and expertise.

Mike is awesome! My cousin recommended him highly. I have been suffering from osteoarthritis and sciatica pain since the beginning of the year. I started getting acupuncture from Mike about 3 months ago.On my first visit, all my pain went away for about 5 days. I was very encouraged to continue. It has taken many more treatments but finally the pain has gone away for good. Mike also noticed a problem with the circulation in my legs and encouraged me to see a physician. As a result, I discovered I have a second condition and got a treatment plan for it that really works.
