ScolioLife is situated inside the Tong Building along Orchard Road and is only a 5-minute stroll from the Lucky Plaza bus stop. 

It is open all week except on Sundays but has extended operating hours, especially on Saturdays.

This clinic is led by Dr. Kevin Lau, a graduate of schools in Australia and the USA, who incorporates his university education with a lifetime of practicing natural and preventive spine care.

Dr. Kevin specializes in scoliosis management and care. In fact, he has a top-ranking app you can download called, ScolioTrack, an innovative software that helps people track spine deformity and monitors its progress as well!

The clients we spoke to loved that the first consultation has a free trial on the services they would need for their problems. This allowed them to know what to expect and if the treatment was something they would want to do.

There was no hard selling at all and the environment was pleasant and carefree. Dr. Kevin prioritizes his patients’ comfort on top of the professional care he provides.

Other than scoliosis therapy, this clinic also provides services such as chiropractic adjustments and Schroth exercises. It also handles conditions like herniated or bulging discs, bone spurs, leg pain, and muscle strains.

Overall, this medical establishment has all the general treatments one usually needs from spine specialists. There are fewer advanced or specialized treatments here, but it still has shockwave therapy and posture pumps for those who require it.

If you are looking for more specific services, we recommend checking our other entries. However, we like ScolioLife’s offerings and believe it is a good destination for the general public, especially those suffering from mild scoliosis.

Nevertheless, we wish it had more branches open around the island because its location in Orchard Road can be quite congested with traffic.

Spring Hope is located inside Paragon Medical Tower 1, which is a 3-minute walk from the Opp Mandarin Orchard bus stop.

It is open from Monday to Saturday. However, it only has one branch open, which is unfortunate because Orchard Road can be quite congested due to the shopping malls surrounding the area.

With that said, the clinic does have teleconsultations for those unable to go to the facility. This is good news for busy bees or those who have transportation woes!

The online consultation can be done via WhatsApp or Zoom. After the event, the doctors will send you a medical summary of your treatment and also provide the prescription for the medicines you would need.

Spring Hope is spearheaded by Dr. Tony Setiobudi, who has been an orthopedic and spine surgeon specialist since 2004. He treats a variety of bone and joint problems, fractures, and sports injuries. 

We recommend seeing Dr. Tony if you are experiencing spine problems such as nerve compression in the spine, back pain, neck pain, scoliosis, ankylosing spondylitis, and spine fracture — these are his areas of expertise!

The clinic also offers treatments for those who are experiencing pain in the hip and knees, foot and ankle, and shoulder and elbows. It has physical therapy services to help strengthen problem areas.

Furthermore, the clients we interviewed liked that this establishment accepts all private medical insurance or corporate insurance, making it more accessible to anyone seeking medical assistance.

They also praised this clinic’s staff for being helpful and kind during treatments, particularly those who underwent spinal surgery. The procedure was more comfortable because of their professional care and positive attitude.

However, other patients had also mentioned that the wait time inside the clinic can be quite frustrating. Some claimed to have waited for 45 minutes for a 15-minute consultation.

Moreover, we noticed that this establishment has a relatively smaller team compared to our other entries.

Nevertheless, Spring Hope has the most diverse list of services offered as it provides both invasive and non-invasive treatments for almost all spine-related conditions.

Last but not least, Dr. Tony can also provide prescribed medication to manage more serious conditions.

Heartland Rehab is found inside the Alexandra Central Mall and is just beside the Park Hotel Alexandra bus stop. It has significantly longer operating hours all week, except Sundays.

This place is an ideal candidate for those who prefer having appointments on Saturdays! Unlike other clinics, Heartland Rehab accepts same-day bookings to swiftly accommodate patients with urgent concerns.

It also has other branches open in Somerset, Upper Serangoon, Joo Chiat Road, and Depot Road, making it significantly more accessible than other entries on this list.

What impressed us about this clinic is the fairly large team of experts who specialize in various fields under spine care and rehabilitation such as sports and musculoskeletal physiotherapy, post-op care, and sports massage therapy, among other things.

We recommend this place for those seeking care for joint pains, chronic pain, sports-related injuries, and also neurological conditions.

We particularly like the corporate wellness program here, which offers a holistic approach to employee wellbeing by making an organizational culture of health.

It does this through either online or on-site seminars and educates the employees on various topics related to health and wellness. 

The topics that it covers are work-related musculoskeletal injuries, back and neck pain management, and exercises to maintain a healthy body while working to maximize productivity and overall wellness.

We really like this because other than teaching individuals the ways to alleviate spine-related issues, it also provides them a good structure to make sure these problems don’t keep recurring.

The only downside of this clinic is that it does not have services for those who need operations or other ailments that require surgery. It is strictly for rehabilitation and general wellness.

That being said, if you are suffering from conditions that require surgery or if you need a clinic that will prescribe you medication, we suggest checking our other entries on this list.

Elite Spine Centers is just along Kallang Ave and is a 4-minute walk from the Aft Kallang Bahru bus stop. It is open from Monday to Sunday, however, it has haphazard operating hours on weekdays.

It also does not have other branches around the island, which may be an issue for individuals living outside the Central region.

Nevertheless, Elite Spine has a broad team of 3 professional chiropractors who have experience working in countries such as the United States, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.

The doctors are experts within the conservative care field, with a goal to integrate modern chiropractic methods and traditional rehabilitation therapy.

We highly recommend this place for those seeking conservative treatments for any spine-related ailments or concerns.

Its non-invasive services range from spinal decompression therapy, deep tissue and sports massage, and functional corrective methods or FCM. 

The latter is a procedure that utilizes a holistic approach to restore proper biomechanics of the spine and joints. FCM is a combination of soft tissue manipulation and rehabilitation exercises.

The clients we spoke to really liked the synergetic approach of this clinic’s services and found plenty of success in alleviating chronic back pain. 

Moreover, they also loved the friendly team and doctors who are always keen on listening to each of their concerns and problem areas. They were also given useful advice regarding daily posture checks to help manage problems in the long term.

However, Elite Spine does not provide other services for more serious conditions that would require operations. It also does not prescribe medications for those who require specific drugs for their spine-related ailments.

Nevertheless, it is an ideal destination for the average joe seeking quick relief for nagging back pains, poor joint mobility, or tense muscles. 

Chiropractic Health and Wellness Clinic is found in Clarke Quay Central, which is just in front of the Clarke Quay Stn Exit E bus stop. It has irregular, albeit long operating hours from Monday all the way to Sunday.

This is an ideal destination for anyone seeking emergency care that can accommodate patients any day of the week. However, it does not have other branches around Singapore.

Another thing worth remembering is that this clinic is closed on Wednesdays every 2nd and 4th week of the month and may change without prior notice.

We recommend getting in touch first to ensure it is open on the day you visit.

Chiropractic Health and Wellness is led by Dr. David Liew, a chiropractor and pain management specialist since 1998. He also has experience working in other countries such as the United States.

Dr. David is well-known for providing chiropractic services that tackle common issues such as chronic pain and acute discomforts. He is also regarded as a family-friendly specialist that can work with both adults and children.

With that said, we highly recommend this establishment for those who are looking for a spine specialist that the entire family can go to for help.

Other than neck and back pain, Dr. David also handles other cases such as scoliosis, slipped disc, and sciatica. He offers orthodontic services for those who have foot conditions as well. 

We interviewed past clients and they spoke very positively about Dr. David’s approach. They mentioned that he is polite and sincere, and really takes time to listen to each person’s history regarding their condition.

We recommend this clinic to those who are seeking a natural and drug-free approach to their spine-related conditions. 

With that said, Chiropractic Health and Wellness do not offer invasive treatments or provide prescribed medication for severe cases.
