Catheter treatment for Locomotorium (for foreigners living abroad) ＜Okuno＞
We provide non-surgical, same-day treatment for persistent pain conditions such as frozen shoulder, knee pain, and chronic prostatitis.
Chronic joint pain such as stiff shoulders, frozen shoulder, elbow, knee, or lower back pain, and sports-related injuries may be caused by abnormal “moyamoya-like” blood vessels.
At Okuno Clinic, we offer treatment that reduces pain by embolizing these abnormal vessels.
Our procedures are performed on an outpatient basis, and hospitalization is not required.
For conditions such as Heberden’s nodes, plantar fasciitis, and Achilles tendinitis, we also provide a targeted arterial injection therapy that can be completed in approximately 5 minutes.
