SPINEFIT CHIRO & PHYSIO
Chiropractor and Physiotherapist in Mont Kiara & Sri Hartamas
Spinefit Chiro & Physio first established its roots in the leafy suburb of Mont Kiara late 2014.
6 years later, we still remain a team of professional chiropractors and physiotherapists who believe that health is more than just a body lying down on the table – we want you to understand your body and take control of what will carry you throughout your life.
We help people in pain avoid surgery so that the pause button on their life doesn’t last forever.
Reach the goals that you want… Get out of pain. Sit at work without getting a headache or backache. Walk more than 500 metres. Play with your grandchildren. Run that marathon.
GOALS & MISSION
FULFILLING COMMUNITY NEEDS THROUGH MEDIA PRESENCE & CORPORATE EDUCATION
We realised there was a lack of education in the community on the importance of their physical well-being, especially corporate businesses. We began solving the problem by working with communities like:
Grab
pwc
KPMG
Wework, and more.
In recent times, Spinefit moved these sessions online, such as with Liberty Insurance and ENRA.
Spinefit was also featured on a few leading news outlets to share about our dedicated efforts towards the cause:
SAYS
Astro Awani
Sinchew Pocket Times, and more!
As we journeyed, we saw massive improvements in health awareness among various communities, especially between 2015 to 2018.
COLLABORATION OVER COMPETITION
At Spinefit, we prioritise a collaborative effort that will give each Practice Member the best results. We believe that different approaches have their own strengths.
Holding on to this belief, one of our specialities is in working together & supporting many professionals over the past years:
Sabah State Track Cycling team
KL Saracens Rugby Club
Professional football players in the Malaysian Football League
Close teamwork with our neighbourhood GP & radiologist, whom we refer to when clinically required
Referrals to trusted fellow professionals when needed (Pilates, performance training, diagnostic centers, orthopedics)
INNOVATE & ADAPT TO STAY AHEAD
We faced many difficulties in reaching the public during the COVID-19 Lockdown which propelled us to innovate and explore the possibilities of Telehealth.
Telehealth is an alternative for those wishing for a solution to their problems in the comfort of their own home. At the time of writing, we have been getting consistent enquiries about Telehealth while receiving good feedback from our Practice Members!
Online video consultations
Access to professional healthcare advice in a safe manner
Personalised mobile app recovery programme that you can view anytime, anywhere
VISION
The story doesn’t end here. Our North Star is to see more Malaysians adopting a healthier lifestyle and care more about their own health and well-being. We aim to achieve this through our combined strength at Spinefit and with the support of other industry professionals who also care to keep Practice Members doing what they love.
Drop us a message on the website chat or contact us here to tell us more about your condition if you’re unsure about what we can do to help, and one of our team will get back to you soon.
Our Team
Our team is passionately committed to creating a culture that embraces our core values of excellence, ethics, integrity, and compassion.

He obtained a Bachelor of Science in Chiropractic Science and a Bachelor of Clinic Chiropractic from Murdoch University and is a registered practitioner with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA).
Dr. Chandra practices the same approach as we do at Spinefit - by addressing the cause and not just the symptoms presented. With his experiences of working closely with other practitioners from disciplines such as physiotherapy, remedial massage and osteopathy, Dr. Chandra is able to efficiently help individuals through their recovery process.
Being very athletic from a young age, his love for futsal has given him the opportunity to play competitively in Western Australia as well as other international tournaments. Dr. Chandra is currently playing in the Malaysia Premier Futsal League (MPFL) for KL City FC.

She obtained a Bachelor of Science (Hons) Chiropractic from the International Medical University in Kuala Lumpur as well as certificates in treating individuals with specific sports injuries from the The International Federation of Sports Chiropractic (FICS).

Jer Shin, Lum
Physiotherapy Rehab Specialist
Jer Shin is our very own in-house analytics genius! Dependable and a go-getter, he has been helping our Practice Member's get on track for the past 5 years, not including the many years spent in some of Klang Valley's busiest hospitals. He holds an honours degree in Physiotherapy from University Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) and is a member of the Malaysian Physiotherapist Association. With that invaluable experience, Jer Shin has been able to effectively understand a Practice Members’ condition and come up with a personalised recovery plan that yields results.
Jer Shin is a certified kinesiology and GEMt Australia (Global Education of Manual Therapists) trained dry needling practitioner. He utilises his training along with his analytical skills to assess our Practice Member's faulty movement patterns, and treats their imbalances to reduce pain and enhance their performance.
To add on to Jer Shin's learning and passion in the area of sports rehabilitation, he has worked along many various sporting events around Kuala Lumpur to provide on and off-field physio treatments for elite and high performance athletes since joining Spinefit. He has also gained certification as a medic for any World Rugby sanctioned events and is currently the lead practitioner responsible for the care and rehabilitation of the Cycology Team Sabah state track cycling team.
For leisure, Jer Shin enjoys cycling and meeting other like-minded individuals that can bring up challenging topics for them to discuss together.
Hannah Chong
Physiotherapy Rehab Specialist
Hannah is our first Spinefit team-member hailing from Kuching, Sarawak. Having completed her Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Hons) and as a member of the Malaysian Physiotherapy Association, she has had previous experience in both major general hospitals to private rehabilitation centres.
Hannah is a big champion in movement and actively structures her rehab plans to get Practice Members back into proper movement and function during their recovery. She believes in forming professional relationships with her patients that value honesty and transparency in all aspects of treatment. She is always willing to tailor treatments based on what the patient desires and considers the most effective means with which to achieve their desired outcomes.
A strong advocate of continuous professional education for the benefit of her patients, she strongly believes that when a practitioner stops learning, it’s time to retire. One of her certifications involves Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) training to equip her with the right techniques to help young children and adolescents with correcting their movement throughout their developmental years. She is also a trained extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) practitioner, which has helped the overall care and rehabilitation of the young athletes that come her way.
A self-professed introvert, Hannah enjoys reading and on some weekends, hunting for the best ramen noodle bar in Kuala Lumpur.
Daphne Wong
Physiotherapy Rehab Specialist
Daphne is our latest addition hailing from the East. After completing her Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Hons) with a thesis focusing on osteoarthritis, she then applied her knowledge into practice by working in one of Klang Valley's most reknown orthopaedic hospitals. Throughout her years there, she understands the challenges involved in the rehabilitation process well.
A member of the Malaysian Physiotherapy Association, Daphne believes there are many ways to achieve optimal wellbeing. As such, she aims to provide holistic treatments with as many evidence-based techniques as possible. This involves many soft tissue techniques and active movement-based therapy. Backed with Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) training, this application helps manage a variety of acute and chronic musculoskeletal injuries, with a particular interest in Women's Health and Vestibular issues.
As an active person that enjoys hiking and squash, she truly understands how injuries can put a stop to activity and how frustrating it can feel. This experience gives her an appreciation for the value of collaborative work and guides her in tailoring and optimizing patient care.
With a passion about the clinical benefits of rehabilitation and working with patients to empower them, she balances her time off work by looking for the next big adventure - through food, fun, and people!
Keith Tan
Marketing and Operations
While Dr. Chandra and Jer Shin work hard to look after the wellbeing of Practice Members, Keith works in the background to make sure the Spinefit ship remains tight.
With sales and marketing experience in the Advertising, Construction and IT sector, Keith has managed both large and medium sized client accounts and gets a kick out of surpassing expectations. He takes a people-centric approach, believing that while tasks must be executed well, nurturing good relationships is crucial.
Keith was recently interviewed by Astro’s Awani Review to share his thoughts on the current chiropractic and physiotherapy health industry in Malaysia.
He has a Bachelor of Science and Graduate Diploma in Business from Auckland, New Zealand. He is often found either behind the front desk or in the pantry making flat whites for anyone who asks nicely!
Workplace Health & Wellness
As we try and achieve our goal of seeing a stronger healthier Malaysia, we do so by sharing our knowledge and expertise with those at the workplace. Why the workplace specifically? Because we spend a good majority of our day at work and unfortunately for some, seated at a desk for prolonged hours.
At Spinefit, we want to help organisations address some these health issues as a result of their posture at work early and hopefully by doing so, prevent any serious effects that may have long-term consequences.
We structure our wellness sessions to cater to the needs of each individual workplace. Besides running a health talk, we can also help businesses with their workplace ergonomics or provide on-site postural screening for their team(s).
Here are some notable organisations/platforms where we have previously conducted our workplace health and wellness sessions with or have been featured in:
