GoodSangTang Chinese Medical Centre (固生堂中国中医) — known to many simply as CMC, Chinese Medical Centre — operates a clinic at #04-101 on level 4 of Tiong Bahru Plaza. The group is one of Singapore's leading Traditional Chinese Medicine providers, with 15 clinics islandwide and more than 1,000,000 patients treated since its establishment in 1997. The Tiong Bahru branch reopened on 15 April after a renovation, bringing a refreshed space to the neighbourhood mall under the group's founding promise of 'Your Health, Our Priority'.
Care begins with a comprehensive TCM consultation: experienced physicians take a detailed health history and use diagnostic methods such as tongue observation and pulse diagnosis to identify underlying imbalances in the body, then build a personalised treatment plan. Treatments include acupuncture, herbal medicine, tuina massage, cupping and scraping, supported by a team of trained TCM therapists for hands-on bodywork alongside the physicians.
The clinic also runs Beauty & Wellness therapies — facial acupuncture, gua sha facials, lymph care, kidney care, ovary care, slimming, herbal skincare and hair growth treatments — designed to enhance inner vitality and outer glow. Appointments can be booked online or by phone at +65 6266 2298.
On the fourth floor of Tiong Bahru Plaza, GoodSangTang Chinese Medical Centre (固生堂中国中医) — known to many simply as CMC, or Chinese Medical Centre — brings time-tested Traditional Chinese Medicine into one of central Singapore's best-loved neighbourhood malls. The clinic is a branch of one of the country's leading TCM providers, a group that has grown from its founding in 1997 to 15 clinics across Singapore and has treated more than 1,000,000 patients along the way. The group brands itself 'Most Trusted TCM', and the five-star Google reviews it showcases from patients give that claim plenty of backing.
The Tiong Bahru branch itself has just come back fresher than ever. After a renovation, the clinic resumed operations on 15 April, carrying the group's founding promise — 'Your Health, Our Priority' — into a renewed space in the mall.
Every course of care at CMC begins with a comprehensive TCM consultation. Experienced physicians gather detailed information about your health history, conduct a physical examination and apply classic diagnostic techniques — tongue observation and pulse diagnosis among them — to work out where the body's underlying imbalances lie. The outcome is a personalised treatment plan rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription, aimed at steadily improving your health and well-being.
Physicians are supported by a team of trained TCM therapists, which means clinic-style medicine and hands-on bodywork can be combined under one roof — a pairing that shapes much of how the group cares for its patients.
The core treatments on offer include acupuncture, herbal medicine, tuina massage, cupping and scraping (gua sha), with more available depending on your diagnosis. Acupuncture works along the body's meridians to address imbalance; herbal prescriptions are tailored to nourish and restore; tuina delivers therapeutic meridian massage; and cupping and scraping help relieve tension and support circulation. For those who want to maintain results between courses, a dedicated TCM Health Care programme centres on tuina-based upkeep for everyday well-being.
A patient review from one of the group's other clinics captures the model well. After a flu that lingered for more than a month, she saw a physician for acupuncture 'targeting both the front and back areas', plus herbs to ease her sore throat and respiratory symptoms — and a therapist for a two-hour tuina session across her abdomen, legs and back, with cupping around the neck to relieve swollen lymph nodes. Physician and therapist working in tandem, treating the condition and then helping the body recover, is very much the CMC way.
Beyond treating illness, the clinic runs a full Beauty & Wellness programme built on the idea that radiance starts from within. Options include facial acupuncture and gua sha facials, lymph care, kidney care and ovary care, TCM slimming, herbal skincare and a dedicated hair growth treatment. Each, in the group's words, is designed to 'enhance your inner vitality and outer glow' — holistic rejuvenation that balances mind, body and spirit. A Health Cash Card can also be purchased through CMC's website for those who want to keep up a routine of care.
The clinic sits at #04-101 on level 4 of Tiong Bahru Plaza, 302 Tiong Bahru Road, Singapore 168732. Appointments can be booked online through CMC's website or by calling the branch directly on +65 6266 2298.
If your routine takes you elsewhere on the island, CMC's network stretches from the Yishun headquarters to Westgate, Pasir Ris, Marine Parade and more, so a treatment plan started in Tiong Bahru can continue closer to home or work. For Tiong Bahru residents and the surrounding neighbourhood, though, having a newly renovated TCM house backed by nearly three decades of practice inside the mall means consultation, treatment and wellness care are all just a lift ride away.
