Back pain that comes back as soon as the medication wears off.

Acute or chronic, postural or injury-related — most lower-back pain has a structural driver that painkillers cannot reach. We find the driver, then we treat it.

Lower back pain is the most common musculoskeletal complaint in Singapore. It can arise from disc dysfunction, joint restriction, muscular imbalance, or postural mechanics — often several at once. Because the right treatment depends on the specific cause, every patient begins with a doctor-led assessment before a treatment plan is set.

What it is

Lower-back pain is the most common musculoskeletal complaint in Singapore. It can result from disc dysfunction, joint restriction, muscular imbalance, postural mechanics, or a combination of all four. The right treatment plan depends on the specific cause — which is why every patient at Elite Spine Centres begins with a full clinical assessment.

After multiple sessions, my chronic lower back discomfort, which sometimes turns into pain when I sneeze, became a lot better and I also saw improvements in my posture, flexibility, and mobility. Price is reasonable and I would highly recommend Elite Spine Centre.— Charles Lim · Chronic lower back pain

Our treatment approach

We treat back pain by first identifying the underlying mechanism — disc, joint, muscle, or postural — and designing a targeted plan around it. Where a structural issue is present, manual therapy and decompression form the core of care. Where the cause is postural or occupational, rehabilitation and lifestyle correction take precedence.

Modalities used

  • Chiropractic adjustment
  • Spinal decompression therapy
  • Myofascial release
  • Rehabilitative exercise
  • Postural correction

What to expect

Acute back pain often responds within 2–4 sessions. Chronic or recurring back pain typically requires a longer treatment arc — 8–12 weeks of progressive care, followed by maintenance.

If this matches your symptoms

  • Most cases of back pain are non-surgical when treated with the right protocol.
  • Every patient begins with a 60-minute first visit — a full assessment and first treatment with a doctor, for $88 online.
  • If our care is not the right path for your condition, we will say so and refer you on.

Frequently asked

Common questions.

Our patient-care team is happy to walk through anything else over the phone or WhatsApp.

The number of sessions depends on the severity and duration of your condition. Acute injuries may resolve in a handful of sessions, while chronic back pain conditions typically require a more structured plan. Your doctor will give you a clear outline at your consultation.

Yes. For patients with reduced bone density, we use gentle, low-force techniques and complementary therapies that are appropriate for your condition. We always perform a thorough assessment before proceeding with any treatment.

Not necessarily. Most patients can begin care safely without imaging. If the doctor believes imaging would help clarify your diagnosis or rule out a serious underlying cause, they will advise you accordingly during or after your first session.

The underlying causes and treatment approaches can differ considerably. Upper back pain in Singapore is often linked to postural strain and tension in the thoracic spine, while lower back pain is more frequently associated with disc issues, facet joint problems, or nerve compression. Both are assessed and treated at our clinic under a unified, personalised plan.

Many of our patients come to us after trying physiotherapy, medication, or general practitioner visits without lasting improvement. Our FCM approach often identifies root causes that were missed elsewhere, particularly around spinal alignment, movement patterns, and soft tissue dysfunction.

In the rare event that your condition falls outside the scope of what we can help with, we will refer you to an appropriate specialist, whether that is an orthopaedic surgeon or another medical professional. Your health outcome always comes first.
