What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a traditional treatment that uses needles and moxibustion (a form of heat therapy) to stimulate specific body parts. It is useful for treating and preventing diseases, and its effectiveness and safety have been recognized in modern medicine. The goal of treatment is to alleviate pain and enhance recovery. The body’s responses are observed to identify diseases, and treatment is applied accordingly.

In Japan, there is a national qualification known as “Acupuncturist,” and specialists perform the treatments. In the United States and Australia, nurses, physical therapists, and doctors also incorporate acupuncture as one of their treatment options.

Acupuncture not only alleviates fatigue, stiffness, numbness, and pain, but it can also provide a wide range of benefits. It contributes to improving physical constitution, internal organ function, and immunity. Additionally, it is effective in treating conditions like breech pregnancy and infertility in pregnant women.

About Acupuncture and Moxibustion

Moxibustion Treatment

What Are Acupuncture and Moxibustion Points?

Traditional Chinese Medicine emphasizes the balance of “Qi” (life energy), “Blood” (blood), and “Water” (lymphatic fluid, etc.). When this balance is disrupted, illness or discomfort arises. Acupuncture and moxibustion stimulate “acupoints” to regulate the flow of “Qi” in the body and restore health. These acupoints are spread throughout the body and are related to the meridians (energy pathways) that regulate the flow of energy. Acupuncture, moxibustion, and acupressure stimulate these points to improve the function of the meridians and enhance overall well-being.

As a result, the following effects can be achieved:
– Relief from muscle stiffness, numbness, and pain
– Balancing the autonomic nervous system
– Promoting blood circulation
Receiving acupuncture treatment once a week can significantly reduce the risk of illness. Acupuncture is not only effective in treating symptoms but also serves as a preventive measure for health.

What Medical Japan Can Do

At our clinic, we offer treatments incorporating acupuncture and moxibustion for patients who have not seen improvement with previous treatments for muscle pain, stiffness, and various unexplained symptoms (e.g., headaches and palpitations). Our nationally certified acupuncturists use very thin needles, ensuring minimal discomfort during treatment. If previous treatments have not relieved pain, and the cause remains unknown, our extensive clinical experience may help uncover a solution. Acupuncture works by stimulating acupoints, painful areas, and related regions, which minimizes the risk of side effects like muscle soreness (known as “doms”) compared to other treatments. Additionally, acupuncture does not require medication and utilizes the body’s natural healing abilities, making it a gentle approach to healing.

Acupuncture Interventions at Medical Japan

For Persistent Muscle-Related Lower Back Pain

Using 2D ultrasound allows for precise targeting of soft tissues, making it easier to identify the pain’s origin. Treatment: Subcutaneous 3cm deep long muscle acupuncture. By improving blood flow, this treatment promotes recovery from back fatigue, enhances flexibility, and makes breathing easier. When the long muscles are sufficiently flexible, spinal and rib movements become smoother, making deep breathing easier.

The primary function of the long muscles is to protect the spinal nerves and support the spine. Additionally, these muscles, along with the chest and spinal muscles, work together to protect the torso and assist in actions such as straightening the back, leaning to the side, and twisting the body.

Rlated Information

Combining Treatments for Enhanced Effectiveness

Astron is a combination therapy device that can output both ultrasound (1MHz, 3MHz) and low-frequency currents (low to high) based on the patient’s condition. At Medical Japan, in addition to chiropractic and acupuncture treatments, we also utilize ultrasound. This high-frequency ultrasound sends heat to the deeper layers of the body, activating cells and promoting repair. When combined with chiropractic and acupuncture, this technology significantly enhances pain relief and overall recovery. This device addresses chronic pain relief and is effective for deep-seated pain that is difficult to treat with conventional methods.

Recommendation from Physicians

I am Dr. Ryohhei Tsuchida, Director of Tokyo Bisen Clinic Shibuya. At our clinic, we address various musculoskeletal symptoms based on orthopedic expertise. We also have a fully-equipped X-ray room for accurate diagnosis.

While we address a wide range of musculoskeletal symptoms, I highly recommend the treatments offered at Medical Japan as reliable methods for recovery.

For example:
Acupuncture and Osteopathy to Treat Pain and Numbness from the Root
We aim to treat the root causes of pain and numbness such as shoulder stiffness, lower back pain, arthritis, myofascial pain, and neuralgia, and ensure continuous recovery.

Rehabilitation and Evaluation to Prevent Recurrence
Based on detailed evaluations, we create individual rehabilitation plans to prevent recurrence of knee or shoulder joint diseases and chronic lower back pain.

Strengthening Exercises for the Body
After recovery, we strengthen the body to prevent recurrences, sports injuries, and muscle weakness.

Medical Japan offers evidence-based comprehensive health support, and I especially recommend it for those dealing with musculoskeletal issues such as shoulder stiffness, lower back pain, arthritis, myofascial pain, and sports injuries.
