    I visit the embassy as seldom as possible, but we are SOS patrons. Never heard of you from SOS. I will ask the next time I am there and let the forum know what they say.

    Fullo's partner was gonna work for you, can't locate Viona or Brent, diloo says ".. there is an enormous need for pediatric OT in Jakarta. My son goes to see one of the only ones available at East West Clinic."

    Fullo? I can't recall that he has written that he personally used your services. However he admitted that his/her partner was working for you guys.
    See: http://www.livinginindonesiaforum.or...ll=1#post21576
    Brent? S/he has apparently never been in Indonesia. S/he has been banned for spamming the forum and using a shill to promote your business. His/her IP has never been originating from Indonesia but from... Pakistan, a well known country in matter of spamming.
    See here: http://www.livinginindonesiaforum.or...l=1#post209093
    Viona? Are you joking? Her registered address to the server is... [email protected]. Her history of posts confirms that s/he is an obvious shill who registered only to peddle a disguished ad for Eastwest. You can NOT ignore that Viona is one of your colleague. What is the purpose of adding her to the list? Jeez, I have no clue about the quality of practitioners in your clinic, but you really have to review your marketing technics.

    In short none of the user of this forum you have mentionned, not having a professional link with you, have ever recommended you. Thus your "We did pretty well in healing most of the expat in this forum " was clearly misleading. I am glad that you have removed it.

    Moderators read posts, check IPs, investigate any new user and they do NOT appreciate to find out that businesses try to deceive in any way users of this forum. For your information, my post #9 wasn't that innocent. Eastwest has raised my attention in the past for breaching our policy concerning advertisment and using shills.

    This is what I posted about East West, in a thread that is almost exactly two years old (link: http://www.livinginindonesiaforum.or...ysiotherapist)

    Nothing has changed in the past two years - I have never been there, and know nothing either good or bad about their services.

    For the record, Viona is the one who wrote this job ad in another website: http://hadigunawan.net/lowongan-kerj...er-at-eastwest
    How funny... the clinic was looking for an "online & social media marketer"... Seems to me that you guys have found the applicant you were looking for.

    Let me jump in here.
    Prior to using the Japanese acupuncturist I have recommended, my wife occasionally used EastWest, and I myself once or twice.

    Not the cheapest, but certainly competent and last time I visited they had bule therapists. The treatment certainly seemed to help
    As a stranger give it welcome.

After blood, urine, x-ray, EMG, MRI the doctor told me that the pain was caused by compressed nerve on the lower side of my backbone near tailbone, and I need a surgery to fix it.

    I was shocked, I didn't think it was that bad, and I don't want a surgery, since it still have risk, the worse I heard is I may not able to be pregnant, I'm only 29 and I do want children.

    Anyone have any experience on this? maybe can give me pointers what is the fact what is the myth, is it possible the doctor is playing me? and what should I do? can I avoid surgery? is there an alternative aside from surgery? I am so nervous that any info that you could share will be highly appreciated.


    Thanks

    Practicing gentle movement from Yoga,or Pilates(gentle also), or some swimming theraphy will gradually help bring the strength on your back,also if you sit in the office alot,try to change your chair with Fitball,it helps correcting your spine slowly as you will make your sitting posture right (scapula retracted and sitting tall,working on your abdominal muscle).Hope you get back on track soon

    it is amazing how many drs here want to cut you open, especially for back issues. so very corrupt, they will make a fortune out of you on the insurance payout.

    so many alternatives for nerve issues, chiro being my first port of call.
