Our Unique Points
If you’re suffering from persistent pain such as frozen shoulder or knee pain that hasn’t improved with conventional treatments, our clinic offers specialized care.

Our ""transarterial microembolization treatment"" targets abnormal vessels (known as ""moyamoya vessels"") that are the root cause of pain. By delivering medication to these vessels and embolizing them, the treatment reduces pain effectively. It is a non-hospitalized, outpatient procedure, making it convenient for patients. To date, more than 8,000 patients have undergone this treatment, which is known for its high safety and minimal side effects.

For pain in the hands and feet, we also offer a simpler option called ""intra-arterial injection therapy (Dochu)."" The procedure takes only about 5 to 10 minutes and is minimally invasive, allowing patients to be treated easily and comfortably.

If you have been struggling with chronic pain, please don’t hesitate to consult with us.

    Eliminate chronic pain at its root! Relieve pain with cutting-edge technology!

    We believe that “moyamoya vessels” (abnormal neovascularization) are a key cause of chronic pain. At our clinic, we identify these vessels through a comprehensive evaluation including medical interviews, physical examinations, and ultrasound.
    Because these abnormal vessels are difficult to detect with standard tests, our approach allows us to pinpoint the underlying causes of pain that have previously been labeled as “unknown,” enabling appropriate treatment for conditions such as chronic lower back pain, stiff shoulders, and knee pain.

The procedure takes only about five minutes, making it a low-burden option that is popular among busy individuals and those who wish to continue their active lifestyles.
