Can acupuncture help in treating back pain?

Acupuncture is a traditional method some people use for back pain. It may relieve muscle tightness and help stimulate natural pain relief. Its effects vary between individuals. Patients considering acupuncture should seek licensed practitioners and ensure it complements a proper medical diagnosis.


Do you have any recommendations for physical therapists, chiropractors, or other resources?

At The Pain Relief Clinic, we offer in-house physiotherapy alongside medical consultations. While we do not provide chiropractic or TCM services, we respect patients’ choices and advise selecting licensed professionals for any care they pursue.


Do you have any recommended acupuncturists, especially for lower back pain?

We do not refer directly to acupuncturists. However, if patients choose acupuncture, we advise confirming the practitioner’s licensing and experience. It can be part of a multi-modal approach but should not replace medical assessment.


What do physiotherapists do?

Physiotherapists assess your movement, posture, and strength, then design exercises and therapies to reduce pain and restore function. At The Pain Relief Clinic, physiotherapy complements medical diagnosis and is tailored to your condition.


Who are the Homage physiotherapists?

Homage offers home-based physiotherapy in Singapore. They are a private provider. Patients seeking home care should verify provider licensing and suitability for their condition.


How long does a physiotherapy visit last?

Typically 30–60 minutes. At The Pain Relief Clinic, duration depends on individual needs and may be integrated with your medical consultation for convenience.


What should I expect during my first physiotherapy session?

Your physiotherapist will assess your condition and demonstrate exercises or manual therapy techniques. At The Pain Relief Clinic, physiotherapy is planned with your medical treatment in mind.


Should I prepare anything for my physiotherapy visit?

Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Bring along any past reports or imaging. At The Pain Relief Clinic, we streamline your medical and physiotherapy sessions in the same visit when possible.


Have you tried nerve stimulator machines?

Devices like TENS are used by some for short-term pain relief. At The Pain Relief Clinic, we offer evidence-based medical technologies suited for specific diagnoses.


Do you dare to try TCM acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a personal choice. Some find it helpful for muscular pain. Licensed practitioners should be consulted. At The Pain Relief Clinic, our approach focuses on medically guided, non-invasive options.


How many sessions of TCM are needed for lasting pain relief? Does the pain return?

Results vary. Some require multiple sessions. Pain may recur if the root cause isn’t addressed. That’s why accurate diagnosis—often with imaging like MRI—is essential before starting any treatment.


May I know more about the chiropractor you mentioned?

Chiropractors perform spinal adjustments, which some patients try for back pain. We advise patients to check professional licensing. The Pain Relief Clinic does not offer chiropractic care but provides non-invasive medical treatments tailored to your condition.


Can you tell me more about charges, location, and treatment frequency for chiropractic care?

We encourage patients to check directly with the clinic. For those seeking medical care, The Pain Relief Clinic offers affordable physiotherapy and non-invasive treatment options at 350 Orchard Road, #10-00 Shaw House, Singapore.
