Japanese Osteopathic Massage Clinic

Revitalize your body and soul with Japanese traditional massage

What is Japanese Osteopathic Massage?

Acupressure is a traditional Asian bodywork therapy that has thousands of years of history. All patients are treated with care while trying to get to the root of an individual’s pain. Using specific acupuncture points, we can realign certain muscles and joints in the body, which in turn, helps treat pain and stress in one’s feet and hips. A common misconception about pain is that the source of pain is the root of the cause. However, in main cases, this is just not true. By treating related areas, it can relieve pain in other parts of the body. Because of this, our talented massage therapists will use certain bodily clues to find out the cause of each patients pain, and massage it away!

Dietary health consultation focusing on Japanese traditional food

Diet also plays an important role in living a healthy lifestyle and creating an ideal body. Individuals who continue to eat food that doesn’t promote a healthy lifestyle tend to find that their body doesn’t always respond the way they’d like it to. Eating junk food puts a strain on the body’s internal organs, which makes it harder to recover after everyday activities, and especially in the case of strenuous exercise. No matter how much sleep a person gets, they always seem to be tired and lacking energy, and sooner or later they start to feel pain.

These are the signs that one’s diet is not as well-balanced as it should be. That is why we also offer dietary health consultations to our customers, with a focus on consuming Japanese traditional foods, or “Washoku”. Japanese food was recently added to UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list, so for visitors from abroad, this is a unique experience to not only receive medical attention but experience Japanese culture while you are here in Japan!
