Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What is the difference between massage and chiropractic?
A. Massage is for relaxation and recovery from fatigue, while chiropractic is for skeletal adjustment and posture improvement. Use depending on symptoms.
Q. What is the price range?
A. 3,000 to 6,000 yen for 60 minutes of relaxation, 5,000 to 10,000 yen for 60 minutes of chiropractic treatment, and some clinics with national qualifications may be covered by insurance.
Q. Which salons have English support?
A. Many salons for foreign tourists. Search for "English OK" on Hot Pepper Beauty or Google Maps.
Q. What should I do if it hurts?
A. Don't hold back and say, "It hurts. Please weaken it." Treatments that are too painful can have the opposite effect and cause you to rub the area back.
Q. Is chiropractic covered by insurance?
A. Acute illnesses (sprains and bruises) suffered by judo therapists (orthopedic clinics) are covered by insurance. Chronic stiff shoulders and lower back pain are generally covered at your own expense.
