I went in due to stiffness in my right neck area. The receptionist recommended a consultation followed by Tuina. However, the consultation felt very brief and basic. It mainly involved asking general questions that I had already filled out in the registration form, pressing a few areas on my neck, and taking my blood pressure. The entire consultation lasted about 5 minutes ($35) The 40-minute Tuina massage ($80) did not meet my expectations. I had requested stronger pressure, which was not delivered. The experience felt similar to a basic massage and did not justify the pricing. And my neck stiffness remains.

I feel really lucky to have met the therapist Cindi. I had been struggling with headaches, sleep issues, and sciatica pain for years. After starting treatment with her about four months ago, the improvement has been amazing. Cindi’s massage skills are precise and effective, and she is always patient and attentive. She earned my trust from the very first session. I’ve since recommended her to my mother and husband, and she has helped all of us. We’re truly grateful to Cindi — highly recommended!

Receptionist was friendly and easy to communicate with. The prices were clearly stated and the doctors were experienced. The therapist's techniques were different from those I've experienced at other businesses and were very effective.

★☆☆☆☆
Absolutely appalling experience. Both the receptionist and the tuina therapist showed zero concern for my feedback. The place was untidy, with crushed and dirty bed sheets, and the therapist had no understanding of my pain areas — making the session completely useless. My shoulder sprain actually worsened, The staff were unfriendly and indifferent throughout, resulting in a total waste of money. I strongly advise everyone to stay far away from this place.

Do I need a referral or assessment first?›
No referral is required to visit a TCM clinic in Singapore. At your first appointment, expect an intake assessment covering your medical history, current symptoms, sleep, diet, and lifestyle. The practitioner will perform tongue and pulse diagnosis before recommending a treatment approach. If you have a complex or chronic condition — such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, or a condition managed by Western medicine — bringing a recent GP or specialist summary is helpful and may prevent contraindicated treatments. For insurance claims, some integrated shield plans partially cover TCM; check with your insurer whether a GP referral letter is needed to submit a claim before booking.
Is the practitioner at Kin Teck Tong (Paya Lebar) licensed?›
In Singapore, all practising TCM physicians must be registered with the Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners Board (TCMPB) under the Ministry of Health. Registration is mandatory and verifiable on the TCMPB's public online register at Ministry of Health's website — search by the practitioner's name before your first appointment. No regulatory licences were listed for Kin Teck Tong (Paya Lebar) in the current KakiList data. This does not necessarily mean the practitioner is unregistered, but you should confirm the consulting physician's full name and TCMPB registration number directly with the clinic. Confirm the practitioner's licence on the TCMPB register before treatment.
