Tradition × Innovation
We have been specializing in acupuncture treatment for recovery or improvement of symptoms for more than 73 years.
We take pride in providing the best level of treatment as specialists of acupuncture treatment. Our treatment is based on modern anatomy and medical science, and they are combined with the traditional forms to the best fit the patient's conditions and needs. Our acupuncturists keep pursuing and improving skilled techniques, and focusing physical exam as specialist. We have useful equipment such as ultrasonography, and electron microscope, for current status and observation of patients conditions.
We also use near-infrared ray therapy equipment called "Super Lizer" with acupuncture treatment.
Made in Japan needles
Japanese acupuncture needle is very thin, different from Chinese acupuncture needles.
We use only sterile & disposable needles made by Japanese company "SEIRIN". Japanese acupuncture needle is as thin as a human hair is. Needle we use is 0.16mm diameter and 30mm length.
The needle tip is round
Japanese company "SEIRIN" creates acupuncture needles with round tip. We are able to provide quality care thanks to the company's efforts of SEIRIN. We can note the slight changes through the tip of the needles during providing acupuncture treatment. Do we feel any change ? Does it stimulate comfortably and appropriately ?
Gentle stimulation in Japanese acupuncture style
In Japanese acupuncture treatment, we use the guide tubes called "SHINKAN" to help smooth and painless needling.
By using "SINKAN", you feel less pain in the pressed area, even no needle sensation during the entire treatment.
Acupuncture × Super Lizer
We use Super Lizer(near-infrared ray therapy equipment) with acupuncture treatment in our clinic. Super Lizer delivers high power of near-infrared ray in a spot shape on the body. It has been seen as effective in a range of medical fields, such as Pain clinic, Gynecology, Ophthalmology, Dermatology, Orthopedics, and so on. It reduces sympathetic excitement and relieves the excessive tension in the autonomic nerve. So, it helps improve a various range of unidentified complaints.
Improving deep blood flow can be expected. We provide acupuncture and Super Lizer to treat infertility, sudden deafness, nerve pain, facial paralysis and so on.

Breech pregnancy treatment (with ultrasonography)
We are the earliest acupuncture clinic in Kyusyu area equipped with ultrasonography. We have had over 100 breech baby cases a year. Using ultrasonography we check the exact baby's position first. Baby in the 28th week or earlier is easy to turn. (We use our ultrasonography only for checking baby's position before our treatment.) Moxibustion is also traditional treatment for breech pregnancy. It is effective for increasing uterus blood flow and relieving uterus tension to make it easier for baby to turn.
