Anyone has experience with Chiropractic? Any good recommendation at reasonable price with convenient timings (operating hours in the evening/Sat/Sun)???

I go to Dr Lim at Singapore Chiropractic. Not sure if I got the link correct (PS. I am still learning how to use this forum thing.) Anyway its next to Cycle and Carriage, near my place and he definitely helped my back get better. I won't say cheap but 80% better by second visit, so for me was worth it and stopped my pain killers. Last time I went was on Sat morning but you can call to check.

hi bro...

 

how much is the treatment?

 

link is wrong leh...

[Nose85]

i often get the impression that chiropactor makes the condition worse rather than better

initially it may feel better but

the problem will recur and gets worse as time passes by

That's freaking expensive. It's a 10-15 mins job at most and require many sessions.

It was an eastern art with a western packaging.

 

I once saw some Angmo learning this art in a hospital at Beijing.

 

I think someone Re-package it and it become an Ang moh Art and charge sky high price.

exercise is still the best way.. it need not be those vigorous ones..

[Darthrevan]

very expensive to be precise..a visit costs ard $85..with package is abt $5k/year including x-rays..but most impt it works and improve my health. of coz if u can exercise, eat healthy foods, take supplements yourself best.

 

on my 2nd year already..fall sick less than 2 times a year (dunno is food or exercise or chiropractic)

[Iluvlotus]

I don't think anything replaces exercise. But even a great car needs a tune up at least twice a year from all the traveling. Price if I have my way, I like it to be about $20? Wait long long, even chinese sinseh cost $40-$50 per visit. It's where we place the value that determine if what we spend is worth it. Some don't even wink when they pay $30.000 for a piece of COE, just to be entitled to pay some more to buy a car. Doc Tim does not do $5000 packages. For me 2 visit did the job, I just go back once in a while to get a check. For me, $170 later I don't have pain now so for me that is value.

mine is not doc Tim..its at another clinic..totally different..just to clarify

Upon arrival at Kuantan, the moment my 70+ mum got out of my car, she was all-ready to explore the place eagerly. However, many passengers in Japanese cars were a little tired and stretching their back or had slight backache

 

I believe the adjustable lumbar support on the front seats of my car helped. Many/most of the Japnese cars do not have much lumbar support. Perhaps it caused regular users chronic back problems, too.

 

Do feel free to DIY back support by placing a rolled uo face towel between your back (waist-level) and the backrest

 

Anyone with better ideas to share?

My current conti car has good back support, but the headrest CMI - cannot be adjusted forward and it's leaning too far back for Asians. Tried using dog-bone pillow, but CMI (not firm, runs about).

Agree, continental cars comes with good back lumbar support for long distances driving (musing to upgrade back to that)

I have a back support for my driver seat. So call endorsed by physio one. Really good. Can drive up to Penang and the body still feels good upon arrival.
