Very professional doctor, after Dr. Zhang and another physical therapist gave me massage and bone setting, my back pain and shoulder problems were relieved a lot immediately, and I will continue to see Dr. Zhang for physical therapy.
Also Very comfortable and relaxing environment
Herbie He

A great place with a lot of passion to help and heal. After 1 session of chiropractic + acupuncture I feel my neck tension problem improved. Highly recommended.
周卉

Dr Zhang is so professional and efficient it also warm and kind. We don’t speak the same language but if you only speak English I would still recommend her. Her clinic is very clean and elegant and her staff are very nice and helpful!
I have seen lots of acupuncturists so I feel very confident when I say she is exceptional at her job.
Another thing worth addressing is I see some reviews complain about the costs. Do they complain about the price of a new car or dental appointment? Probably not. So why complain about something that is proven to improve your health? Acupuncture is the reason I have excellent health and have not seen a doctor in 18 years so whilst it is expensive, it is worth it. I would rather pay for high quality treatment than get cheap treatment that does not solve my health complaint
Sofia Padelis

Both my daughter (medical student) and myself (cardiologist) have had very good experience there. I have frozen shoulders and back pain. Dr. Zhang is skillful in Chinese transitional medicine treatment and knowledgeable about its theory such as the balance of Ying and Yang, the invisible network of body (经络) and physiotherapy, etc. After treatment I feel much relaxed in my back and I could easily raise my arms. The clinic is very clean. I highly recommend Dr. Zhang and her team.
PS: Dr. Zhang was recommended by my Chinese friends. I never heard about any vouchers. The massage treatment is the best I have ever had in Berlin or Europe.
Ling Meng

Totally unprofessional!!! I had the same experience as the one star review below – doctor was jumping between clients, NO privacy. She told me to undress then passed me off to this guy who had just walked in off the street wearing jeans and a racing shirt. Nothing he did was professional! I felt so uncomfortable. Then she had other patients (male) come into the same room while I was in there! I had to leave as fast as possible. Nothing healed. Maybe traumatized.

My encounter with Dr. Kürten was less than satisfactory. I did not perceive him as being particularly empathetic or considerate.
Regarding the consultation I received, I did not find it beneficial whatsoever and did not witness any discernible positive outcomes, the only outcome was a financial burden.
During our session, he abruptly inquired about a father-related issue I might have, which struck me as unexpected. He then concluded that a deep-seated melancholy was the root cause of my medical concerns. I find this rather amusing on lots of levels, mainly given that he possesses a very limited knowledge of my personal history. It seems as though he attempted to psychologically attribute my physical ailment.
Following the session, I left with a sense of unease. Fortunately, I recognized this after the brief initial consultation and chose not to continue with this Dr. and clinic.
After I initially posted my first review on Google, Dr. Kürten reached out to me through phone calls (at 21:24) and again the following morning (at 09:41). Subsequent to the second call and brief discussion, I opted to block his number. One can only imagine the oddity of having to block a healthcare professional’s contact.
I found it interesting perusing his other 1-star reviews, I found them enlightening, unfortunately albeit too late.
JC

This is a wonderful resource in Berlin! I had the pleasure of working with many of the staff and they all were unfailingly competent and kind. The head of the clinic, Dr Kurten, was especially great and went above and beyond to help me on several occasions. He is also quite fun and relaxed. I did get markedly better.
The herbal services they offer are by far the best I am aware of in Berlin.
Highly recommended!
Hunter Armistead

What a fantastic place to go for a more holistic approach taking the whole into account i.e. body mind and soul. I can truly recommend it especially as a regular customer who is not only looking for acute treatment but also long term results with a preventative focus! The team is simply great – they are listening to you and ask relevant questions, they look beyond and take a deeper approach, they are caring and in general all staff is always super nice and welcoming; thanks for all you do from the bottom of my heart! You are great and I cannot thank you enough for everything you have already done and are still doing for me 🙂

I felt heard, I felt seen and taken care of. Roland was super nice, sweet and very empathetic. Price super affordable. The place is nice and quiet.
I recommend 100%
Nicolas Simkin

I had three sessions here. The attention, personalisation and care put into those sessions went above my expectations, with ample time at the beginning of each session to discuss my health and a holistic approach to this discussion.
The social pricing system makes the care accessible and, in my opinion, does not take away from the quality of care, rather provides sound values that underpin it.
Ultimately, acupuncture did not provide relief for my specific symptoms, but I would definitely consider returning in the future for something else.
Madison Nipps-Gros

It’s an amazing place, I don’t remember feeling so well looked after!
Lot of empathy, lot of knowledge, and definitely lot of results.
The team is fantastic, and very helpful in every way possible.
I’m getting pain relief treatment for two spinal hernias, and honestly I don’t know I could make it without their help.
I recommend this place to everyone that need to feel better.
Thousand thanks to the whole team, with a special plus to Roland
Andrea Agosta

A few sentences are not enough to describe how much Roland and the Team raised on the quality of my life. After years of struggling I’m so happy I’ve found them. Such a professional and good group of people who really want to and able help. On the top, the reasonable prices make it possible to come frequently. I would definitely recommend for everyone!
Rita Deak

It’s no accident this clinic has 5 stars.
I was so moved by the gentle and caring treatment I received.
It’s amazing to be able to receive acupuncture treatment, which has never been financially accessible to me, thanks to their sliding scale.

What a gem in this field! Wow I am truly impressed and so happy to have met Dr Kürten – with his holistic approach always considering body/mind/soul as a whole, he is always looking beyond and helping in a very special way. He has a deep passion for what he does and so he works in a very intuitive and heartfelt way looking at everything from a soul level as well. And most importantly he helps you to find your own self healing powers again; he is supporting you to look at the cause and at the roots of all suffering and then aims for you to be able to heal yourself as well and follow a more preventative approach! What a good soul to have as the leading Dr at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Center in the midst of Berlin 🙂
Ann Kristin Wulf

Dr Kurten is a true maverick and forerunner. I’ve never met anybody like him. He is knowledgeable enough to be a professor and run a working teaching acupuncture clinic and at the same time is very intuitive. My first visit to the clinic was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I even made a TikTok about it. He was startling in his incisive and perceptive take, which went beyond the physical diagnosis and correctly identified some mental habits I needed to lose. I laughed then, as I did many times thereafter. Not that he will crack jokes with you, but he is a special practitioner with a huge heart and a truly free spirit. He is gifted.
Hunter Armistead

Ich bin seit fast 2 Monaten bei Herrn Dr. Kürten in Behandlung und bin überwältigt von dem Erfolg seiner ganzheitlichen Therapie! Ein äußerst erfahrener, engagierter Arzt, fachlich kaum zu übertreffen und zu 100 % für seine Patienten da. Ein großes , herzliches Dankeschön an Herrn Dr. Kürten und sein unglaublich nettes Team im TCM Zentrum!
H. NEWMAN

Ich habe einen sehr guten und kompetenten Eindruck von Dr. Kürten. Er hat in kürzester Zeit die Probleme in meiner Hand gelöst, wo es vorher von Seiten der Schulmedizin hieß, dass es keine Lösung gibt. Ich bin sehr dankbar und werde mich bei ihm weiterhin behandeln lassen.
M. D.

Für jedes Problem die richtige Lösung!
Ich kenne Herrn Dr. Achim Kürten bereits seit mehreren Jahren und bin seit dem immer wieder aufgrund verschiedenster Beschwerden behandelt worden.
Egal mit welchem gesundheitlichen Problem ich zu Dr. Kürten gekommen bin, er hat mir immer helfen können. Nicht nur das! Ich war immer nach kürzester Zeit, absolut beschwerdefrei. Akupunktur, Ernährungsberatung und/oder Coaching haben sehr schnell bewirkt, dass die einstigen, häufig auch sehr starken Beschwerden und Schmerzen, dauerhaft der Vergangenheit angehören. Um ein Beispiel zu nennen, ich kam mit unbeschreiblich starken Rückenschmerzen, die bei einem Orthopäden als schwerer Bandscheibenvorfall diagnostiziert wurden, zu Herrn Dr. Kürten ins Zentrum für Traditionelle Chinesische Medizin, in Berlin. Ich konnte mich so gut wie nicht bewegen, die Schmerzen waren unbeschreiblich schlimm. Laut Orthopäden war eine sofortige OP notwendig, die mit hohen gesundheitlichen Risiken einhergegangen wäre. Herr Dr. Kürten, hat mich an 5 Terminen akupunktiert und ich erhielt eine Kräutermischung zum täglichen Trinken. Nach der ersten Sitzung waren die Schmerzen weniger, nach einer Woche war ich komplett schmerzfrei. Seit dem hatte ich nie wieder Beschwerden. Keine OP war notwendig! Ich danke Herrn Dr. Kürten tausendfach!
Er ist zudem den Patienten gegenüber sehr einfühlsam und begleitet sie, bei Bedarf, auf den verschiedensten Lebensebenen. Er sieht das große Ganze und behebt dadurch auf unterschiedlichste Weise Störungen, die verschiedene Beschwerden überhaupt erst verursachen.
Von den 5 möglichen Sternen bekommt Herr Dr. Kürten von mir 10 Sterne, weil seine Hilfe und Behandlung mir immer wieder die Lebensqualität zurückgegeben haben, die ich verloren geglaubt hatte! Tausend Dank! Ich kann Dr. Kürten als Arzt und Mensch nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen! Er ist der Arzt meines Vertrauens. He is the best! Danke für alles, lieber Herr Dr. Kürten!!!!

Frau Zhu is an amazing Heilpraktikerin! I had been living with chronic pain for over a year an half but was always afraid to try acupuncture since I don’t like needles. Frau Zhu was very gentle and patient with me and really listened to all of my concerns at the first session. After going to her for 3 sessions I noticed that I was already living with significantly less pain and after 6 sessions I was virtually pain free 🙂 I was so happy that with her help I could start to return to playing the violin again, she saved my life. I only wish I had started to go see her sooner. Highly recommended!
Usha Kapoor

It is an absolutely amazing massage salon. The best service ever. I cannot thank Frau Zhu enough for her professional help.

I’ve had been experiencing discomfort at my lower back and after a morning session with Ms. Wang, I felt the fast relief in my back discomfort. I would definitely recommend her practice.
Ezekiel Valencia

I had been suffering from a chronic shoulder pain for a few years. Tried several physiotherapists, but it was not very helpful. I feel so blessed to find this practice, she was able to identify the root cause of the pain and used different techniques to release it. Also gave tips and advice to prevent it coming back. She was very kind and caring. I definitely recommend her if you are looking for a real healing
Begum Topaloglu

I have been going to this praxis for a few years now. Ms Wang is very professional and whatever problems I had, she always treated them with care and helped me alleviate the pain with different treatments. The acupuncture for treating shoulder and back pain is particularly effective.
Xiang Wang

Es gibt Dinge im Leben, die kann man nicht einfach in Worte fassen – man muss sie erleben. Genauso verhält es sich mit der Behandlung bei Frau Wang. Lassen Sie sich ohne große Erwartungen und Gedanken darauf ein und spüren Sie, wie Frau Wang mit Ihrem Know How und außergewöhnlichen Einfühlungsvermögen ihren Körper & Geist wieder in Einklang bringt. Ich kann Frau Wang nur jedem nur empfehlen kann!
Asli Özel

Tatsächlich bin ohne große Gedanken zu Frau Wang gegangen, um meine Verspannungen zu lösen. Was mich aber erwartet hat, war überraschend gut. Sie hat mir nicht nur durch Ihre Behandlung geholfen, sondern auch durch reden, zuhören und Ratschläge. Deswegen gibt’s 5 Sterne und ich freue mich immer wieder, zu ihr zu kommen 🙂

I cannot thank Dr. Amtmann enough. After having consulted numerous doctors and dermatologists over the course of a year and a half, I was prescribed a whole host of medicines (both topical and oral) that over time made my skin and Acne worse. As my last hope, I decided to take the natural route and started weekly acupuncture sessions with Dagmar. I saw a dramatic improvement in my skin over the course of my treatment with her, and after four months I can now say that my skin is finally clear from Acne. Dagmar welcomes you in a very warm, friendly and professional environment and gives you the confidence to know that things are going to get better! I highly recommend Dr. Amtmann’s services to anyone looking for a natural, holistic alternative to western medicine (that really works).
Yuki Perry

I visited Dagmar’s practice multiple times, during two different periods (the first one of which was a very rough time for me), and was very happy with her treatments on all occasions. Apart from the classic acupuncture she also did ear-acupuncture and ordered a mix of herbs for me, all of which I found very helpful. I had never gone through acupuncture treatments before but will continue to get them every now and then for the rest of my life following this initial experience. I could really feel the improvements from the combination of Dagmar’s treatments and would definitely recommend her practice.
Neva N

Frau Amtmann has helped me a lot with my long list of body discomforts and complaints, including those related to digestion, sinuses, joint pain, sleeping problems, anxiety and fatigue. Especially those related to digestion issues—no doctor has been able to help me in the past, so I’ve been really grateful to have seen those improve drastically over the past few months. She’s also a a nice person who’s super professional and really listens to what your ailments are. I’d recommend her to anyone who has any bodily complaint—I’m sure she could help you!
Clare Goldblatt

Ms. Amtmann is an experienced professional who demonstrated a hand-on approach to my pathology. She welcomed me warmly and invested time and attention in understanding my anamnesis well.
She proposed the Liebscher & Bracht therapy, that showed to be the best choice for my situation.
After only one session and while practicing a number of exercises she showed me I can say that the visit was extremely beneficial and I would highly recommend Dagmar Amtmann as a one of the most trustworthy Liebscher & Bracht specialists in town.
Federica Biagini

Since few months I am suffering of CMD (Craniomandibular Dysfunction) and the acupuncture sessions with Mrs. Amtmann helped me a lot to relax the muscles of my face and neck that were really tight. After the first session, the pain decreased a lot and the muscles began to relax.

Dr. Maria Butollo’s Praxis für TCM stands out for its exceptional approach to patient care. Her profound knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and holistic healing creates a welcoming atmosphere where one can feel truly understood. Patients can expect tailored treatments that address both physical and emotional health concerns.
The results speak volumes; many leave feeling significantly improved after just a few sessions. Dr. Butollo’s genuine compassion and thoroughness in her work are remarkable, making it easy to see why she is such a highly regarded practitioner. I would wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and caring expert in TCM.
Customer Reviews
Maria is such a knowledgeable, kind, and competent doctor. It’s really rare to come across someone like her. She truly cares about her patients. After only a few treatments, she has helped me tremendously with my acute neck problems & my painful periods are now also a thing of the past. I hardly ever write reviews, but hope that this one might steer others in Maria’s direction.
Eva Irene Nowe

I have been in treatment with Dr Butollo for almost a year now. I suffer from various nervous and somatic problems in the body which have much improved through my sessions with Dr. Butollo. She has an extensive knowledge of the body and psyche and is able to provide a holistic healing concept. And she listens to and empathizes with the patient, which is wonderful. I can only recommend Dr. Butollo.
Eric Mahleb

There is a reason why Dr. Maria Butollo is so highly rated; I’m glad that I chose a competent professional with great energy that could help me with my neck pain.
She’s a great listener, has an extraordinary sense of detail, is genuine, and takes the time to explain precisely every step while targeting the root cause in a safe and relaxed environment. She is a healer. Highly recommended.
Alex Guyenne

I can’t recommend visiting this acupuncturist. While the treatment itself was ok, on multiple occasions she made claims regarding payment and insurance topics which proved to be false. While we all make mistakes, Maria overstepped her professionalism when I questioned what she had said about payment and she resorted to rude insults and claims that „there’s something wrong with me“.
Camilo Ocampo

I came to Maria’s Praxis last year with an acute pain in my back and neck. The treatment relieved, already from the first session, the symptoms and in a few more sessions she solved the issue directly from the source of the it.
Maria is not only an excellent professional but also a sweet person that cares about the problem you go with: she has an holistic view of the health and health treatments that I, unfortunately, couldn’t find so far elsewhere in Berlin. On top of that, she is fluent in Spanish (my mother tongue, which made everything soooo much easier) English, Portuguese & of course German.
Can only recommend her!

I feel so lucky to have found Francesca! She’s one of those people that you’ll miss out on if you don’t work with her. Every session we go through symptoms, how I’m feeling and tailor accordingly. Francesca is very attentive and writes down every detail about you. The level of interaction is so pleasant and easy. So far I’ve noticed the effects of acupuncture and now I can’t imagine not being consistent. So excited to keep going. I highly recommend, you won’t regret it x
Reem Akuz

From the moment I walked into Francesca’s acupuncture clinic, I felt a genuine sense of care and attention. Every detail of the treatment was explained with meticulous care, ensuring I was comfortable and well-informed throughout the process. The approach is not just about the physical treatment, it’s evident she genuinely cares about her patients’ overall well-being. Her attentiveness to even the subtlest cues showcased her expertise and dedication. For anyone seeking an acupuncture experience that prioritizes care and understanding.
Bruno M

I strongly recommend everyone to treat themselves to a session with Francesca! I felt welcome, heard, understood and taken seriously from the very first session. Francesca is a caring person who listens to the concerns and needs of her patients without judgment. She is generous with advice and tips to help you feel better. I always felt relaxed, and it helped me to feel better after each session – immediate effect! Chronic problems, anxiety, problems falling asleep, colds, and knee pain, Francesca has helped me with all my little problems. If I hadn’t left Berlin, I would still be attending her practice! Francesca is a smiling, gentle and warm person – feeling grateful to have met her!
Marina Anken

I was visiting Francesca for more then three years with couple of breaks in between and I can say that it has been an amazing journey together to heal my PSCO and hormonal disbalance. After two years of acupunture, I was fully healed from PSOC and had my periods regularly again. Francesca is a magician and women who I fully trust. Every time I come to her praxis I feel like home.
Natalia Lavrova

I can highly recommend Francesca she supported me through the later stages of my pregnancy which was a great help and I experience many positive results. She is very professional, friendly and insightful in your knowledge base of acupuncture. My husband also went for back pain support and she worked wonders. Very happy I was able to find her. Thanks Francesca.
