Precautions before making a reservation
Please be sure to read the following precautions before making an appointment. We cannot be held responsible for any problems or troubles that may occur if you do not read the precautions. Please read and understand them beforehand.
If you have or suspect that you have a viral or infectious disease, please be sure to seek medical attention first. Also, please be sure to inform us at the time of your appointment, even if your doctor's instructions are followed and you are determined to be OK.
If you have any kind of mental illness (manic-depressive illness, schizophrenia, etc.), please be sure to inquire with the store before making an appointment. You may be asked to have an escort, or we may ask you to confirm the uncertain risk.
(Uncertain risk: In the past, some patients with bipolar disorder have been treated for a while in a manic state due to improved blood flow, which in turn caused them to lose their balance. Our treatment is extremely soft, but it reduces the pressure that was previously applied to the body and improves blood flow throughout the body. This is usually a good thing, but depending on the type and progression of the mental illness, it can also be a risk.)
The body's reaction after the treatment.
In rare cases, some people experience strong physical reactions after the treatment. Specifically, the body may become heavier, menstruation may last longer, rashes/pimples may appear, or new pains may appear. This is thought to be because the deep parts of the body relax and more waste products are released into the bloodstream than usual, which manifests as heaviness, dullness, excretory system reactions, and immune reactions such as rashes and pimples. In addition, since the body's tension balance changes significantly, the body may become hypersensitive to adapt to the changes, creating new areas of temporary pain. Although they tend to appear more often in people with more physical restrictions, major reactions occur only very rarely.
However, in all cases, please do not hesitate to let us know if you have what you consider to be a ”reaction” of some kind. Depending on the reaction, we may ask you to come back earlier in order to check the changes in the body and the situation, and to fine-tune the body so that it can adapt to the changes as soon as possible. Our first priority is to land that body in a good and solid state.
Reactions are most likely to occur when the body has accumulated waste, such as in cases where the patient has come for the first time, three times, or after a considerable period of time.
Risks of the procedure
Please be assured that our treatment is performed with extremely soft pressure, just enough to touch the body by hand, so the risk of damage to the body caused by external force is unlikely. However, as mentioned above, the deepest parts of the body are loosened, and the overall balance of the body is greatly changed. Therefore, please be aware that you should refrain from strenuous exercise and avoid consuming anything that stimulates the body for a few days after the treatment, if possible. For example, stretching is also an act of applying load by stretching the body tissues, so applying strong force (especially after the treatment) is risky.
Also, please choose a date for the treatment that does not cause strong stimulation after the treatment as much as possible. The body is much softer and more sensitive after a treatment than you may think. Please keep in mind that the body will react more sensitively than usual if strong stimulation is applied at that time.
What to wear during treatment
Please come to the treatment dressed as comfortably as possible without tightness. Please remove watches, jewelry, and other jewelry as much as possible. You will receive better results if you are in as neutral a state as possible. You may bring a change of clothes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How long does it take to get better?
A. It varies from person to person. It depends on the type and extent of symptoms affected, the body's own ability to heal, and the load it receives from its current environment. However, I have the impression that musculoskeletal pain (stiff shoulders, back pain, etc.) gets better relatively faster than symptoms related to internal organs.
Q. Does the procedure hurt? Do you use any instruments?
A. Everything is done with the hands. Basically, it takes the form of lying on your back and placing your hands softly on or under your body. It is extremely soft. It is recommended for those who are sensitive to stimulation.
Q. Is it really that soft and effective?
A. Softness is what makes it effective. The body puts up a barrier against strong stimulation, but is open to gentle stimulation. Also, by keeping the palms soft, the body's condition can be monitored, ensuring safety without finishing halfway or treating the wrong area.
Q. Is it effective for ○○?
A. Basically, any body can be carefully adjusted to improve overall health. Although individual symptoms vary from person to person, the effect is immediate, especially for tension pain in general. On the other hand, there is no direct effect on tissue rupture, degeneration, calcification, viral or infectious diseases, or tooth decay. It is effective in preventing the body's overall immune system.
Q. Does your insurance cover it?
A. We do not offer health insurance.
