Our Services
|
Advanced BioStructural Correction™ is commonly known as ABC. The ABC technique is effective at correcting our spinal structure and function. ABC is an advanced technique to correct spinal misalignments in our bodies. Misalignments happen when we experience strain on our spines in a direction that the body cannot self-correct from our everyday activities. Dr Terry Chen is known as one of the pioneers of the ABC technique in Malaysia.
|
|
Extremity Adjusting adopts a similar philosophy to the ABC technique. However, the adjustments will target the joints in our bodies other than the spine. For example, helping patients have adjustments to restore the range of motion in joints such as the elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles and feet.
|
|
Electronic Bio-mechanical Instrument - We provide an alternative adjustment option for patients who are anxious about having manual manipulations. Additionally, our bio-mechanical instrument offers precise readings driven by data sensors to deliver the right amount of pressure needed to treat target areas. Therefore, this instrument is ideal as a staple for all general patients.
|
|
Scoliosis treatment - We specialise in treating Scoliosis in Malaysia, a spinal condition that is more common among children and teenagers, especially females. Patients who have Scoliosis show some physical deformities, including the 'S' curve visible on x-ray scans. It can be treated from the onset with manipulations and bracing. At Spinecare, we are the registered distributors of ScoliBrace™; a customisable bracing system imported from the USA.
|
|
Spinal Decompression Therapy is a gentle treatment performed when the patient is resting on the traction table. The purpose of the therapy is to accelerate the healing process in common injuries such as slip discs, lower back or neck pain. Patients will feel a traction effect (pull) and release on their spine during the treatment.
|
|
Deep tissue massage is a massage technique performed by our Physiotherapists. It helps patients with musculoskeletal conditions such as strains and sports injuries. During the massage, the Physiotherapist will apply sustained pressure to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. It helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and reduce tension in muscle and tissue.
|
|
Rehabilitation and corrective exercise including geriatric care are crucial for strengthening and conditioning specific muscles that need more attention. Our Physiotherapists will guide you whether it's to correct your posture or to support the recovery of any injuries.
|
|
We also treat patients with specific conditions requiring specialised treatment. Our physiotherapists offer the following treatment options:
For the treatment of Stroke and Parkinson's patients, read here. For the treatment of Myofascial Release, read here. For the treatment of Tennis Elbow, read here. |
|
3D Feet is an advanced and fully customisable orthotic footwear that harnesses modern scanning technologies to support the structure of the arch in your feet. It is essential to optimise the arch of your feet because it is the foundation that helps support your body and your movement.
|
|
Sports Physiotherapy is an area in rehabilitation that is specifically concerned with the prevention of injury and the rehabilitation of the patient back to optimum levels of functional, occupational and sports specific fitness, regardless of age and ability. To find out more, read here.

Weight and nutrition management plans - We know that Penang is the king of street food. With that said, we encourage our patients to indulge in moderation and to insist on eating healthy and have a regular exercise routine for optimal health.
