Frequently
Asked
Questions
Some of the most commonly asked questions about Chiropractic are answered by Advanced Pain Centres.
Do I need a referral to book a chiropractic visit?
You do not need a referral to visit Advanced Pain Centres, but we are more than happy to work with any of your medical and health care professionals like medical doctors and TCMs to ensure a seamless journey towards better health.
What will happen on my first chiropractic visit?
On your first visit at Advanced Pain Centres, we will need to learn your health history. We may need blood tests and/or recent films of the relevant area to access. If we do not think that we can help you, or if your examination raises any concerns, we will inform and refer you to an appropriate medical or health practitioner.
Will I need X-RAYs, MRI, or any other tests?
Often times imaging like MRI or X-Rays are important to understand what is truly happening inside the body. A condition can be “hidden” visually from the outside. It is also common to uncover issues that need specific focus for the therapy that might otherwise have been overlooked.
MRI is generally not necessary especially in the initial stages of care but this can all be assessed during the consultation. At Advanced Pain Centres, we can also review recent images and often do not need brand new ones to assess the condition. We work with a number of diagnostic facilities in Singapore when X-Rays or MRIs are needed.
What are the consultation fees at Advanced Pain Centres ?
At Advanced Pain Centres, the consultation fees are standard. There is a First Timer Trial at $95. This includes a Consultation and One Therapy. We can only administer therapy if we find we can help. Images may be required to assess this. If we cannot do therapy then only a consultation charge will apply. Book Online here.
Can I claim health Insurance or Medisave?
Our therapies are not payable by Medisave. Please enquire with your insurance company or agent. If the condition is because of an accident or injury, it is possible that there is some coverage with your current accident plan, if applicable.
Will I receive therapy on my first visit?
At Advanced Pain Centres, we do our best to give therapy safely and effectively for your specific condition. Most patients do receive therapy on their first visit. Depending on the person and condition, an X-Ray or other types of tests/imaging may be needed before we administer therapy.
