Hi,

I am having backache and my spinal doctor recommended to this chiropractic place I find a bit fishy because:

Each treatment cost RM 230++, with a minimum of 12 treatments contract - otherwise it will be RM 270 per treatment. This seems to be much higher than the typical price range based on my brief online research.  I am having problem with this because I feel like I am not patient but a customer getting pushed to buy amway/herbal life/facial package...

The receipt is unprofessional (basically the type of receipt anyone can issue, without header, address, etc.). I may have a hard time claiming this. Not sure if it is standard here in Malaysia.

The first treatment I had was actually okay (manual adjustment, opinions on my posture, infra-red treatment), but I had doubt on the quoted price (is my doctor getting 40% commission on this????).

I am actually heading to another clinic for a second opinion, but I thought some of you guys may have relevant experience in this to share. Thanks in advance!

Pls go see a spine specialist first. Not just an ortho specialist but those sub specialize in spine. Depending on yr symptom the spine specialist might recommend you to do imaging..
