I have been diagnosed to have Spondylolisthesis L4-L5 since 2005 when I was seconded to Jakarta. I cant recall what is the cause of it since have always been 'lasak'. Doctor asked if I had fallen before to have cause this... cant recall. Perhaps I did but as you know it would have been just rubbed the sore place and moved on or have a massage to ease the pain and forgot about it altogether.
My x-ray and MRI has findings that I do have a posterior displacement of L5 vertebral body over L4, with Grade 1-2 spondylolisthesis. Though the lumbar vertebral body heights are relatively preserved, there is reduction in L4-L5 intervertebral disc space with degenerative changes of spine.
So back then in Jakarta I have gone to see the Halimun Medical Centre in Jl Halimun No 9, Guntur Setiabudi Jakarta 12980 and had my x-rays done. Was surprised that the place is very high tech for that period of time and has given my x-rays in a CD (I forgot where I placed them). I have left Jakarta a long while and not been there since so I have no idea if the centre is still there or have moved. Seen the Global Chiropractic there with a doctor called Dr David Husband. Had a few chiro sessions with him and after pain was relieved, stopped going.

I have been with Philip Wain since 2002 and enjoyed their body scrub now called Oligo. Besides that some of their masseuse are quite good. There is no expiry of the treatment purchased.

Excerpt from Wikipedia:
Hijama (Arabic: حجامة lit. "sucking") is the Arabic name in traditional medicine for wet cupping, where blood is drawn by vacuum from a small skin incision for therapeutic purposes.[1] It is reported that the Islamic prophet Muhammad said, "Indeed the best of remedies you have is hijama, and if there was something excellent to be used as a remedy then it is hijama."[2]

Just last week, a collegue recommended a chinese sinseh in SEA park PJ.
Mr Chong has magic hands. When he first touch my back and 'urut' my right leg numbness went off immediately. I was very impressed. I had to go for a few session like 20 and each session cost me RM50.
Uncle Steven was recommended to me by an Ustazah friend. An old man big size which hands can massage and pull you back together. I went to him twice but didn't quite work for me. The day trip journey going down to see him would have put more pressure on my back, since had to travel from KL -JB-KL. Treatment payment in 2014 was RM80 per session of 30-40mins. He also gives you herbal leaves to try eat there.
