Did the 90min bojin treatment which was really good for my very tight back and shoulders. Must look for Erica. She is really knowledgeable and would also suggest some self-help methods.

I’ve been seeing Coco for prenatal tuina for a couple of weeks now and it’s been a game changer. Her massage is not gentle but very effective which is exactly what I prefer — relieving back and hip pain, improving sleep and circulation, and reducing fluid retention.

I really look forward to my weekly sessions with her!

The clinic is clean and calming, and Coco always makes me feel well cared for. Highly recommend for mums-to-be looking for real relief during pregnancy!

Cordelia Han

10:47 28 Sep 25

Coco has been a godsend during my prenatal journey. I started weekly/biweekly massages with 1TCM at week 16 of my pregnancy, and they quickly became the thing I look forward to the most! She goes above and beyond by offering tips on managing my anxiety and water retention, and she never fails to release all the knots I have. She’s extremely knowledgeable in her massage techniques, and every session is a delight. She gives her all in each session, and it really shows. I look forward to continue my post partum journey with her!

Had a very good experience with the tuina massage here. Rong Rong is very experienced and was able to remedy my aching muscles. She was also very knowledgeable and explained the acupoints in an easy to understand manner. Will be coming back here again!

I came to see Dr. Ma because of the great reviews, and she truly lived up to them. She is gentle, engaging, and very accurate in her diagnosis. I also had digestive tui na with Erica, who is absolutely amazing. After the massage, I felt so much relief and the bloating was instantly gone. Highly recommend!
Currently still continuing my weekly visit

Our couple would like to recommend Dr. Ma Yonghong to couples who want to conceive! We have been married for ten years, and I am already very old. I have seen many Chinese medicine practitioners, and have had several artificial insemination surgeries, fallopian tube obstruction surgeries, acupuncture, etc., so the chance of natural conception is basically very slim. When a friend introduced Dr. Ma to us, we also had the mentality of taking care of our body first. However, we never expected that after just two months of her careful diagnosis and the Chinese medicine she prepared, I would successfully conceive naturally and give birth to a healthy baby this year! I am very grateful and grateful to her for giving us the opportunity to be parents! Dr. Ma Yonghong, it’s great to have you! Thank you very much! I wish you peace, health and happiness every day! ♥️♥️

Physician Ma was attentive and able to determine the issue. She suggested on the foot bath since I’m not feeling well and having endometriosis pain. The foot bath is good and very warm compared to home foot bath that wld turn cold fast. Started sweating a lot after just 5-8mins foot bath even tho it is a 30mins foot bath!
The assistant Xiao Mei explained well for the bath as well! Attentive and been checking on us.

I recently visited 1TCM and had an excellent experience. Dr. Ma was incredibly nice, friendly, and professional, taking the time to understand my concerns and helping to improve my health condition significantly. The staff at the clinic were also very kind and helpful, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The entire process, from consultation to treatment, was smooth and pleasant. I highly recommend 1TCM to anyone seeking effective and professional Traditional Chinese Medicine care.

Physician Chen is truly outstanding! I visited them for my acid reflux and migraine issues. The consultation was thorough, and she explained how acupuncture could address my concerns. The acupuncture sessions were calming and highly effective, and the herbal remedies prescribed have made a noticeable difference. I highly recommend Physician Chen to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate TCM practitioner.

Casually searched for TCM pain relief this morning and I saw 1TCM having a promo so I decided to try and omg I just had the best massage!!!!!

After the 1TCM consultation, acupuncture treated the pain, and the effect was immediate. Dr. Ma’s medical skills are superb, and the beauty at the counter provides good service. I also tried a foot soak, and it felt really good👍I felt relaxed immediately. It’s so comfortable. I hope I can sleep well tonight. I will come back often for acupuncture treatment and foot soaking to improve my sleep problems.

I passed by Novena a few days ago and saw a newly opened traditional Chinese medicine clinic, 1 TCM, and I just wanted to take care of my health! Just want to consult! Dr. Ma performed acupuncture treatment on me after checking my pulse! I also prescribed medicinal powder for a few days! Through acupuncture and medication, I feel that my whole body is in good condition! Will probably come back again!

I have been married for many years and have no children. After being introduced by a friend, I found Dr. Ma. After taking Chinese medicine and acupuncture for two months, I became pregnant successfully. I am grateful to Dr. Ma for his superb medical skills to help me live a more complete life! Highly recommended to anyone in need

Li Wang

08:07 22 Oct 24

I finally found Dr. Ma. I have been a customer of Dr. Ma for many years. She has good medical skills, humorous conversation, and is very responsible. I feel no burden at all when talking to her. She has helped me solve problems for many years, and she is trustworthy.

Wendy Goh

08:22 13 Oct 24

Dr Ma is very gentle and very little pain with her acupuncture as I am very scared with needle. There was once I sprained my back and felt very painful and numbness on my toes, after 1 session of acupuncture and Tuina was so much better. Continued with a few more sessions.
Tuina with Karen, very professional, also will give tips how to maintain. Footbath- make you sweat and detox, felt very refreshed and light after session.

Eugene Koh

04:22 01 Oct 24

Physician Ma is very professional and able to diagnose my situation accurately. Her acupuncture soothes my aches almost immediately!
Foot bath with medicine is relaxing and helps to build up perspiration. According to them, it takes away the toxic build up in my body.
Payment is swift and transparent. Highly recommended and will bring family and friends the next time round.

I've been following Dr Ma Yong Hong for many years. She's a very experienced acupuncture doctor. She solved my mum's bell palsy (recovered in a month). Also, my mum had a fall and was bedridden and wheelchair bounded. We went to Dr Ma again. After 2 months of acupuncture, my mum is able to walk (with walking stick) again. We are planning a Genting trip to celebrate her recovery.

Xiaomei (front desk) is also a very helpful lady.

Twinkle Koh

15:03 16 Sep 24

I recently visited 1TCM and had a fantastic experience!

On my first visit, I saw Physician Chen for years of painful period cramps. She was incredibly knowledgeable and recommended acupuncture, which provided me with much-needed relief.

For my second visit, I had a follow-up consultation with Physician Ma. She also performed acupuncture and introduced me to cupping, which was equally beneficial. And her prescribed medication really eased my pain quickly.

I also tried Tuina treatment with Therapist Lele, and it worked wonders in relieving the tension in my body from long hours at my laptop. The foot bath was an interesting experience knowing that how negative ions can benefit my body.

The front desk team has always been friendly and welcoming, especially Xiao Mei, who made me feel right at home. I highly recommend this clinic for anyone seeking TCM treatments for women’s issues!

Jacqueline Tan Jie Ying 陈洁莹 (jacktheline)

04:09 15 Sep 24

I've been a loyal patient at 1TCM for and can confidently say that it's a place I truly trust. Dr. Ma's expertise and compassionate care have consistently exceeded my expectations. Her ability to tailor treatments to my individual needs has been invaluable.

The friendly and knowledgeable staff at 1TCM (Xiao Mei) has always made me feel welcome and comfortable. Their dedication to providing excellent service is evident in every interaction.

The clinic's clean and calming environment contributes to a relaxing and effective treatment experience.

I strongly recommend 1TCM to anyone seeking a reliable and effective approach to Traditional Chinese Medicine. Their commitment to patient well-being and personalized care makes them a truly exceptional clinic.

Fiona

14:21 14 Sep 24

Dr. Ma's medical skills in traditional Chinese medicine are excellent, and she is very experienced. Their receptionist, Xiao Mei, is very warm and welcoming.

Lynn Gao

10:53 14 Sep 24

I passed by Velocity mall today and entered this Chinese medicine clinic, which solved my problems for a few days! Originally, I had neck and back pain for several days, which made me feel depressed. I also went to other places for massage, but it had no effect! The doctor today seemed to be named Ma, so he gave me two injections, and a massage therapist gave me a push! After I came out, I felt much better! So give it a good review! During the massage, every stroke hit my pain points! I made an appointment next time! Today I finally found my savior

Phoebe Hong

10:49 14 Sep 24

Feeling better after treatment, thanks physician Ma and friendly front desk xiaomei.

Lee Chen Keng

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine has helped my headache. Will come back for treatment by Dr Ma Yong Hong!
