At “Sakura Acupuncture and Chiropractic Clinic,” treatments are performed mainly by hand, rather than using electrical devices or machines.
You can relax and receive treatment in a spacious and comfortable environment.
The treatment area is large, yet the beds are often occupied, which shows how popular the clinic is. Although reservations aren’t available, you can call ahead to get an estimate of the waiting time before visiting.
First, the staff carefully listens to your concerns, physical condition, and daily habits, then checks for any body misalignment before proceeding with the treatment.
The practitioner had me perform a few simple tests to determine which areas needed attention. I was really impressed by his attentive approach where he took the time to ask about my sensations and listen carefully to how I felt throughout the process, which immediately put me at ease.
The treatment focuses not only on the areas of concern but also on maintaining the body’s overall balance.
The practitioner explained that while a massage can certainly help you feel relaxed for a short time, the pain will eventually return unless deeper, more fundamental work is done to restore proper balance. This thoughtful approach really highlights the clinic’s commitment to lasting care rather than quick fixes.
On Mondays and Tuesdays, the clinic mainly offers acupuncture, while on other days, treatments focus on hands-on care. You can also choose the menu that best suits your physical condition on the day of your visit.
It was my first time trying acupuncture, and I have to admit I was a bit nervous at first, expecting it to be painful. To my surprise, I didn’t feel any pain at all, only a faint tingling that quickly faded into a pleasant sense of relaxation.
After the treatment, they also offer advice on future care, helping you better understand and take care of your own body.
The practitioner guided me through several movements designed to improve my mobility, actively assisting and adjusting my posture as I performed them. Some of the exercises were a bit challenging, but the results were immediately noticeable. After completing them, I could clearly feel an increase in my range of motion compared to the initial tests. It was impressive to see how hands-on guidance could make such a visible difference right away.
When it’s busy, you can relax and wait comfortably in the waiting area.
The space is well-lit and welcoming, with a selection of books and manga to keep you entertained while you wait. The comfortable seating and calm atmosphere make the short wait feel much more pleasant, and it’s easy to lose track of time as you browse through the reading materials.
At Sakura Acupuncture and Chiropractic Clinic, people of all ages —from newborns to those in their 90s —come for treatment.
In the evenings on weekdays, many working adults stop by after work, while during the day, most visitors are in their 70s.
It is a welcoming space where you can receive attentive, personalized care while feeling completely at ease. Between skilled treatments, hands-on guidance to improve mobility, and practical advice for daily care, it’s a clinic that genuinely supports your well-being. Even if you’ve never tried acupuncture or hands-on therapy before, it’s easy to feel comfortable and leave with a noticeable sense of relief and balance.
