Can Acupuncture Treat Intractable Diseases?
Awakening the Body’s Healing Power! Traditional Oriental Medicine
About Our Clinic
Our acupuncture and osteopathic clinic specializes in treating patients suffering from intractable diseases for which Western medicine has not established a clear treatment or patients whose bodies have been damaged by side effects of medication.
Our Patients
More than half of our patients travel from outside the prefecture or even abroad, often staying at nearby hotels for about a week to receive treatment.
About Our Acupuncture Treatment
Patients with intractable diseases often suffer from abnormalities in their body’s temperature regulation system or muscle metabolism. We use thermography to check the body’s temperature distribution during acupuncture treatments. Our treatments are often effective for conditions caused by degeneration of cranial nerves, spinal nerves, or the capillaries in the limbs, as well as for diseases treated with steroids or immunosuppressants. This natural treatment approach aims to "boost the body’s health," and can be used alongside medical treatments from doctors.

Acupuncturist Specializing in Intractable Disease Treatments
Clinic Director, Hiroaki Yoshiike
With over 30 years of experience in acupuncture treatments for intractable diseases that do not yet have established treatments in Western medicine, I have spent much time reading medical papers and exploring new approaches. I base my treatments on Western medicine while incorporating acupuncture focused on autonomic nervous system abnormalities, treating a large number of patients daily.
