TESTIMONIALS




 

Mela Berger, has been a highly influential presence in the healing community of Barbados. Her reputation as successful manager is respected, and her commitment to the health and wellness of her clients is well known. She would be a credit to any institution in the health profession.

I write this from my own experience of nearly 30 years in education and as an international holistic teacher of massage, yoga and meditation, having taught on 4 continents and in a variety of situations.

I have known for many years.  Mela is an unusual human being who is brave, intelligent, talented, energetic, resourceful, caring, empathetic and much more.   She is an excellent wide ranged bodyworker who can access many skills as she works.  She has worked on me many times, to my great relief, and I am always impressed by her ability to find the right technique for the problem at hand.  And I will say that as I am a 70 year old dancer, I have a lot of body work done.  And Mela is excellent!  Mela is also a woman of strong spirituality and brings great maturity to all interactions.

Mela Berger, an extra-ordinary healer. She was the only one who made a difference in my condition, where traditional medicine was only offering a lifetime of drug use (painkillers) and drastic spinal surgery.

Her knowledge and insight was integral to the physical recovery I am experiencing today. In a few short weeks under her care I was able to walk without crutches and start moderate exercise. Now it is 12 months later and as much as can be expected I have had a full recovery, and I have the tools to maintain my progress.

If it had not been for Mela I would probably be in a wheelchair and unable to work again, as it is I am able to resume full time employment in my profession as a photographer where I can spend hours on my feet.

Over the past fifteen years I have watched and benefited from her professional development and mentorship of her students and alternative health colleagues. Ms.Berger has in large part inspired my own professional development and the launch of my bodywork business here in Chicago is largely thanks to her inspiration and invaluable professional advice. She always rises to the top, whatever she tries, with efficiency and integrity.   Kimosha P. Murphy, Licensed Massage Therapist, Ki Massage & Bodywork of Chicago, Illinois

Having known and been a client of Mela Berger for the last seven years, I know Mela to be an experienced, multi-faceted professional with diverse knowledge in many areas of the healing arts.  She offers her clients genuine care with an intent and obvious desire to bring them back to wellness, using the appropriate treatment or a combination of treatments by calling on her extensive knowledge and experience.

She is interested and genuinely concerned about her clients’ health and the health of her community and has worked effectively with people with all types of physical ailments.

Mela has demonstrated to me her in-depth knowledge of the body and how it works, as well as how to do the correct body exercises, mental attitudes and physical body adjustments, both on your own and with her able assistance.  Her classes are always fulfilling and her knowledge truly well communicated.  She has a pleasing personality making everyone who comes into her presence feel very welcome.
