Book Appointment Pain & Injuries programme

“Physician Luke treated me for tennis elbow. After his treatment at my first visit, the level of pain dropped from Level 7 to level 4 the next day. I was able to bend and extend my forearm with ease.”

Hauwan Tham

“Had weekly treatments with Dr Fangying via a referral from a friend. My back pain and ankle sprain has gotten gradually better over the weeks. Fangying was also very precise right from the beginning to explain how the different body parts were linked and what might have caused an oversight causing an injury. It was a great and comfortable experience.”

XY S

“I had an acute stiff neck. The physician was thorough in her consultation, and administered acupuncture, cupping, and scraping. After the treatment, the physician spent time to demonstrate acupressure to alleviate my stiff neck, if it arises again. Remarkably, I feel restored!”

D

“I’ve been seeing Chelsea for my tense neck and shoulders and she makes me feel so much better each time and has helped reduce the frequency of flare ups.”

Em S

“Dr Ong did a fantastic job with (first time ever experience for me) acupuncture and cupping for my nerve pain in my leg. I was up and walking around in 24 hours from a situation of slow hobbling and minimal movement when lying down or sitting down in order to avoid the pain on moving my right leg.”

Tuck Yee

“I had a lot of pain in my lower back and Dr Tan really did well in pain relief with acupuncture, cupping and massage.”

FAQs

Pain and injury visits, answered

Practical notes before you book. Your physician still confirms the plan in clinic.

What do I need to take note of before my appointment?

Wear comfortable clothing that can be adjusted easily, and remove accessories. We can provide a change of gown if needed.

What can I expect during the session?

During your initial consultation, your TCM physician takes a detailed health history and assesses your symptoms. They discuss treatment options and create a personalised plan for your pain or injury.

How long does each session take?

Each visit usually takes about 30–60 minutes. A session includes detailed consultation and treatment.

Does it hurt? Any downtime?

Most TCM treatments feel soothing and comfortable. With acupuncture you may feel a slight prick or tingling; discomfort is usually minimal. If you have concerns, tell your physician before and during treatment so they can adjust. Most people return to usual activity without significant downtime.

How many sessions are required?

Session count varies with the type and severity of your pain, and how your body responds. Some people notice relief after 1 or 2 sessions; chronic patterns often need a longer course. Your physician reviews progress as you go.

How much does TCM pain treatment cost at PULSE?

Sessions start from $60 for a physician consult plus one treatment modality when that is the confirmed plan. GST applies. Herbal medication, if prescribed, is charged separately. Multi-modality or longer visits cost more. <a href="../book/?concern=pain&note=Pain%20and%20injury%20care%20enquiry#request">Book a consultation</a> to confirm a plan for your concern.
