Client Testimonials

One of our favorite stories…
“A licensed massage therapist contacted a practitioner and said she wanted to experience the work firsthand and understand how it worked before referring some clients . After her appointment , she got off the table, and said 'I’m a totally different person than I was two hours ago, but I still have no idea how to explain to my clients what you do or how it works.'"
We hear things like that a lot. That’s why we feel its important that clients have a place to share their experiences with other clients. Sometimes it’s just about trusting fellow consumers. We hope these help you.

- Over the past two years, I have been noticing too many occasions when issues that are red flags for Alzheimer's disease began to arise in my daily life. Because I do have a family history of this, I was closely monitoring myself. I discussed my issues with my doctor, and we both agreed that pills, etc. were certainly not appropriate at this time. I continued to monitor myself, and I now spoke to my immediate family about what was happening. They agreed that they had been noticing my forgetfulness. Having worked with Doug before, I turned to him for help. I have had four sessions with him and, while I did notice improvement after each session, it was after my session last week that I experienced real changes: thinking more clearly, focusing for extended periods, remembering details, following a thought to a conclusion rather than drifting away from it. I love to read, but I had been struggling to remember characters and events presented. Over the weekend, things changed: I held three separate in-depth conversations, and I was able to present solid, detailed "evidence" to support statements I made, and I could ask insightful questions of others. Oh, I also read and followed a whole book. Something clearly has changed in my status. I have taken no medicines, supplements, or treatments of any kind other than working with Doug. While I know the potential results of this road I am on, I feel that actively working with Doug through this journey is going to be the path I will continue to follow.read moreread less
Elizabeth Cox4/03/2021 - Doug Ackerman is top notch, he has successfully removed roadblocks from my life. I feel more energetic, focused, and happier. Everyone deals with stress, it effects each and every human differently. But how we deal with this stress is what really matters. Doug Ackerman can most certainly help. Thank you for all that you do, Doug.read moreread less
Brandon Walker4/03/2021 - Doug is amazing! I went in to see him complaining of period cramps (like almost passing out cramps) and other menstrual symptoms. I had tried many different things to try to get them to calm down (supplements, essential oils, etc.) But nothing really worked. After just one session with Doug we figured what the issues were and got them fixed! I've had two cycles since then... I've been able to function at work and haven't even thought of taking midol! It's been great! Highly recommend for any issues you can't seem to figure out!read moreread less
Shelby Schmitmeyer4/03/2022 - I recommend not only the service, also this practice. I was comfortable and had all questions answered before, during and after my session. I left the office feeling rejuvenated and in control of my life and continue to reap benefits days and weeks afterwards. The service didn't end after my session, Doug checks on my progress personally, in a personable professional manner.read moreread less
Susan Sexton4/03/2021 - I was a little unsure if kinesiology. I didn’t really understand it. But I’m always focused on natural healing processes. A friend of mine has awesome results seeing Doug, so I wanted to give it a shot. Most of what I’m seeing him for is emotional. I’ve only been seen once and slowly have started to overcome the very thing I was seen for. I plan to continue seeing Doug, he listens, and has so much wisdom in the realm of feelings, traumas, limiting beliefs, etc. I love the idea of my energy being cleared so I can continue to grow and be the best version of myself without holding into All the baggage. It helps to let go. And It makes perfect sense how it works. I mean, we are energy.. I’m a believer, and cannot wait to keep working with Doug!read moreread less
Abby Puterbaugh1/23/2024 - I am a relatively new client of Doug.,and I must say, that I am extremely pleased with his work this far. Each session is better than the one before. I have spent many, many years in search of my health, and I am certain, that I’m finally in the right place! I’m so thankful that he is available to us, and very excited to see the many changes that will take place, as I continue on this exciting new journey.read moreread less
Debbie Taylor4/03/2020 - I was really unsure about this at first because I was recommended to Doug by a coworker and was told it wasn’t the typical body work I’m used to as a massage therapist. It didn’t take long for Doug to find my problem areas though. He does a lot of muscle testing and goes from books, to notes, to the computer, to having you repeat certain sayings. Your body is telling him what’s wrong and what to do from there basically. I’ve seen him twice now and the amount of healing I have experienced is worth me talking about. He checks in with every client every 2 to 3 weeks after you see him and makes himself available for any questions you may have. I highly recommend him! Just an experience you have to see for yourself!read moreread less
Keli Sargent4/03/2019 - I recently visited Doug Akerman for some fine tuning. Years ago, I picked up one of his information flyers on Meridian 180/ Energy Kinesiology. I had a strong feeling to hang on to this. As the saying goes, "When the student is ready, the teacher appears." 14 years ago, I began a personal journey of healing myself from emotional trauma and disfunction. After 14 years, including two different alternative emotional therapies ( in addition to my self acquired knowledge), I finally felt free of my emotional handicap. However, I still had the feeling that I wasn't quite done yet. It was then that I had the strong feeling to contact Doug for a session, which I did. Doug is the "Real Deal". He found no less than four blockages which he released during our session. After my session, I left his office to return home and I began to notice a subtle flow of energy coming into my body. Over the next 48 hrs, that sensation intensified. It was like a clogged pipe finally being unplugged and the water flows fully free. I highly recommend Doug Akerman and Meridian 180.read moreread less
larry matheny3/27/2023 - I cannot say enough good things about Meridian180 and the process of energy kinesiology. Doug Akerman has helped me work through a wide range of issues — both physical and emotional — that I’ve been trying to fix for years with traditional medicine and talk therapy. I am at the point where I no longer need to keep rehashing the same old stuff, I just need to move on. Doug is incredibly skilled and highly intuitive, so he can help his clients quickly hone in on the core issue, and then release it. The energy kinesiology approach is different because it works with the mind and body together to release the trapped energy that is keeping you from reaching your goal. And the amazing part is that it works on all kinds of physical, mental, and practical issues. I’ve worked with Doug on everything from depression, relationship issues with my family, emotional eating, and even food allergies. Some of these issues have been resolved in literally one session, while some have taken longer, but the results are unmistakable and quite frankly astounding. If you are considering energy kinesiology to resolve or achieve something, I highly encourage you to give it a try. It has been a hugely transformative experience for me that has truly changed my life.read moreread less

Kaitlyn Burgess2/03/2023 - I was unaware that the type of therapy offered at Meridian 180 even existed. I had heard about Doug through a client of his and I was intrigued. I do not live in the same time zone as Meridian 180. So I looked at more localized Reiki therapists. I was just more impressed with the information at on the Meridian 180 website. I decided to see if it would be effective long distance. Doug is very accommodating. I have had noticeable success and am looking forward to continuing to work towards my goals through Meridian 180. Doug's most impressive attribute is his diligence and sincere desire to find solutions to a plethora of issues. Like all good practitioners, little advertising is needed for Doug. His satisfied clients willing share their experiences.read moreread less

SunOtter Martinico4/03/2022 - As a massage therapist who specializes in Medical Massage our practice occasionally gets patients not responding fully to their massage treatments. Doug is a referral resource for such instances. A patient just sent word that she had an incredible break through with her problem. Kudos again to Doug for his work with another patient we had referred.read moreread less
