Suzaka City, where our clinic is located, is known as the "town of warehouses." It has many old-style cafes, and you can enjoy the retro townscape. Why not take a leisurely stroll around Suzaka City as a break or as an element to enhance the effectiveness of your acupuncture treatment?

Many patients visit us because they are struggling with intractable diseases for which treatment methods have not been established in Western medicine, or because their bodies have been harmed by the side effects of medication. We conduct examinations from a different perspective than doctors and use them for acupuncture treatment. We take ample time for the first consultation to ask patients about their problems, so please feel free to consult us if you have any concerns.

Our Clinic's Unique Examinations

Examining Body Tilt

With Olivopontocerebellar Atrophy, the more the body tilts, the more symptoms tend to progress, so we check the body tilt. We advance acupuncture treatment while confirming the postural muscles that cause the tilt.
Examining the State of the Autonomic Nervous System

In Multiple System Atrophy, it is common for the balance of the autonomic nervous system to be disturbed before symptoms worsen. The disturbance of the autonomic nervous system appears in body surface temperature, so we investigate signs of worsening and proceed with acupuncture treatment.
Examining Blood Flow to the Brain

Many people with progressing Multiple System Atrophy have worsening blood flow to the brain. Blood flow changes between lying down and standing up, so we check the state of blood flow to the brain in the most common posture in daily life and proceed with acupuncture treatment.
