Can I use my voucher for a spinal check-up at Ethica Health?
Yes. In addition to general chiropractic consultations, elderly patients can use their vouchers for a comprehensive Chiropractic Body Check, with follow-up treatment available as needed.
How do I check my voucher account balance?
Patients can check their balance via the eHealth mobile app, by calling the Voucher Balance Enquiry Hotline at 2838 0511, or by asking any registered service provider.
Is chiropractic care suitable for elderly patients?
Yes. Chiropractic care is widely used among elderly populations and can help improve mobility, balance, and coordination, while effectively relieving pain caused by degenerative joint conditions. Key benefits include:
Improved joint stiffness and range of motion for better daily functioning.
Reduced chronic pain, such as lower back and neck pain.
Enhanced balance and coordination, helping to lower fall risk.
Improved overall quality of life and independence.
Is non-invasive treatment (such as chiropractic manual therapy) suitable for elderly patients?
Yes. Chiropractic manual therapy is a non-invasive, hands-on treatment approach that carries lower risk compared to invasive options like medication or surgery, making it a generally safe choice for managing musculoskeletal pain in elderly patients. However, elderly patients with the following conditions should undergo a thorough assessment by Dr. Ronan Chan before treatment:
- Severe osteoporosis
- History of fractures or joint fragility
- Bleeding disorders or use of blood-thinning medicatio.
- Recent surgery or spinal instability
- Active inflammatory arthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis flare-ups)
Ethica Health conducts a comprehensive assessment and Chiropractic Body Check for every elderly patient, tailoring a safe and appropriate treatment plan based on individual health status and medical history.
