The ones in tung shin is legit. Mum had back pain few years back, went to specialist they said need surgery. Went for Acupunture at Tung Shin after 3 months her back is as good as new. Carry grandchildren also no back pain now.

Their acupuncturists skills are good but it’s a really crowded hospital. Waiting time is almost like govt hospital as price is also cheaper than most TCM clinics, if go on weekends confirm have to go early and you probably get your turn by around noon. Can’t expect to get serviced fast like other TCM clinics but it’s worth the wait.

It really depends on your condition, the acupuncture itself usually is within RM50 (at tung shin) but there will be extra cost for the medicine and that one really varies depending on what type of herbs are prescribed and whether you choose to take raw herbs or the pre-prepared ones.

In total I’d say expect to be charged more than a GP visit coz usually they will prescribe at least 1-2 weeks worth of medication. Bear in mind TCM is more focused on continuous maintenance of the body rather than a quick fix. So the medication period recommended can be longer. Even if you already feel ok and good the doctor may still prescribe some herbs for you to continue to take for another few weeks/months which I recommend to just follow. Like my mum case also actually after the first month her back ok already, but doc still ask to go follow up until 3 months and continued to prescribe herbs. Even now every 6 months she still go for acupuncture sessions as recommended.

Your total cost with the medicine etc might be 100++ to 200++ depending on the type of medicine prescribed tho fyi.
