Concept of Oriental Medicine
(1) Concept of physical therapy
Part is the whole and the whole is a part. Human beings are a microcosm living within a macrocosm. Humans are deeply related to nature and are affected by changes in nature and change along with the natural universe.
(2) Spirit theory
“Spirit” is the source of the universe and all things in the nature, and it is the root of human life. It is believed that a sound body and spirit can be maintained only when the “spirit” circulates throughout the entire body and exercises normally.
(3) Yin and Yang theory
“Yin and yang” is a conceptual term for the two opposing, complementary, and correlated actions of the universe found in all natural phenomena, where the constant motion of yin and yang is believed to cause all changes in the world. Yin and Yang also exist in the human body. For example, back and belly, outside and inside, guts and organs, vital energy and blood, heat and cold, etc.
(4) Five Elements Theory
This is a doctrine developed based on the relations between the human body and the natural environment, astronomical observations, and the study of divination, etc. It is centered on five laws and symbolizes the nature of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. The physiological functions of the organs of the human body can also be divided into five characteristics and applied to the five elements.
What is acupuncture treatment?
It is to assess the condition of the body through oriental medical examination methods such as pulse diagnosis (examining the strength and rhythm of the pulse from both wrists) and abdominal diagnosis (examining the temperature, smoothness and hardness of the abdomen by touching it). Then, it is determined how the circulation of the spirit in the body and the balance of yin and yang is disturbed, and which acupuncture points should be treated.
It is an empirical medicine that has been practiced for more than 4,000 years to maintain health by harmonizing the body and raising the overall strength of the body through stimulation with acupuncture and moxibustion.

About moxibustion
Moxibustion is a method of applying heat stimulation to acupuncture points using moxa, sometimes called “yaito.”
This method of moxibustion, in which moxa is burned on the skin, has been popular in Japan since ancient times. It is known that warlords of the Warring States period used to apply moxibustion regularly for their health about 500 years ago, and poets who traveled around Japan used to apply moxibustion to their legs to keep their legs in good health.
Outside of Japan, there are very limited countries where this kind of moxibustion is practiced, and the WHO also recognizes that it is very effective for immune activation.
Whether acupuncture or moxibustion is more suitable for each patient depends on his or her constitution.
After understanding your physical condition, we will explain to you so that we can proceed with the treatment with your consent and agreement. Please let us know if you have any concerns, questions, or requests.
Depending on your symptoms and constitution, we can also combine Shiatsu with other therapies.
Shiatsu is an ancient Japanese massage that is said to be useful for recovery from physical fatigue and for mental care.
In order to improve your physical condition, we recommend that you continue treatment for at least 2 to 5 times.
