Acupuncture and shiatsu(Japanese traditional massage) aim to restore the body’s natural balance by improving sluggish metabolism—what we call a “stagnation in the flow of Qi and blood”—caused by daily postural imbalances, lack of sleep, and stress. Our goal is not only to relieve localized symptoms, but also to support and enhance your body’s own natural healing power.
While acupuncture and shiatsu(Japanese traditional massage) originated in China, they have uniquely evolved in Japan.
Our english is still a work in progress, but please feel free to visit and experience a small part of Japanese culture with us.
Shiatsu
Shiatsu is a unique Japanese style of massage. It involves applying pressure mainly with the thumbs, elbows, and palms to specific points on the body known as tsubo, which serve as both reactive and therapeutic points. Since the practitioner uses their hands during treatment, it becomes easier to sense subtle changes in the patient’s condition, allowing for more precise and tailored care. Shiatsu is also highly effective in relieving physical and mental tension.
Acupuncture and Moxibustion
Disposable stainless steel needles are used. The most distinctive feature of Japanese-style acupuncture is the use of a guide tube, known as a shinkan, which helps reduce pain during needle insertion. Acupuncture can easily reach deeper layers of muscle, offering excellent immediate effectiveness in relieving pain. When combined with the gentle, natural warmth of moxibustion (heat therapy), it creates a sense of relief and comfort that goes beyond what ordinary massage can provide.

Remarks
1. This is a small clinic run by a single practitioner. Depending on the progress of the previous treatment, there may be a short wait. We kindly ask that you arrive 5 minutes before your scheduled appointment, as there will be some forms to fill out.
2. In acupuncture treatment, we examine the pulse, tongue, and abdomen. Since needles will be inserted in the shoulder and lower back areas, you will need to expose your back and upper buttocks.
3. On the day of your treatment, please take only a shower or keep your bath light. Also, refrain from excessive alcohol consumption, as it may reduce the effectiveness of the treatment or negatively affect your condition (especially with acupuncture and moxibustion). Please also avoid coming to the clinic under the influence of alcohol, as we may have to refuse treatment in such cases.
4. After acupuncture treatment, you may feel a sense of relaxation similar to how you feel after hot spring or a long hot bath. It’s also possible to experience a sense of fatigue lasting for several hours to half a day. This occurs because acupuncture creates micro-injuries in tissues where blood circulation and metabolism have been chronically impaired. As a result, the body begins to restore these sluggish cells by improving circulation and boosting metabolism, which can temporarily increase the body’s workload.
This reaction is temporary and nothing to worry about. After some time, your body will feel lighter and your mind clearer.
