Traffic Accident Treatment

At our clinic, treatments for injuries caused by traffic accidents are covered by automobile insurance (both compulsory liability insurance and voluntary insurance). Therefore, you will not be required to pay any out-of-pocket expenses at the reception.

Symptoms After a Traffic Accident and Treatment Information

Common conditions caused by traffic accidents include neck pain or discomfort occurring shortly after the accident, commonly referred to as “whiplash (cervical sprain)”. Other symptoms may include dizziness, insomnia, fatigue, heaviness, as well as pain from bruises in the lower back and limbs. Early and focused rehabilitation is essential to prevent long-term pain and physical dysfunction. Please note that due to adrenaline and shock immediately after the accident, you may not feel pain right away. However, symptoms can appear about a week later. Rehabilitation is still effective at that point, so don’t worry. That said, early treatment may reduce the severity of any potential long-term effects, so please don’t hesitate to contact us as soon as possible.

Treatment Process

Treatment Flow
Acupuncture
Highly effective for deep-rooted chronic symptoms and post-accident aftereffects. Many patients report significant improvement.
Osteopathic Care
For acute symptoms like bruises and sprains, we provide first-aid such as icing and stabilization.
Manual Therapy
After assessing whole-body balance, we identify stressed areas and provide careful treatment to prevent lasting aftereffects.

Immediately after the accident, you may not feel pain due to adrenaline and shock. However, pain can appear a week later. Even if time has passed, we offer precise treatment and rehabilitation for lingering symptoms. If you are experiencing discomfort or have any concerns, please consult us.

Post-Accident Support

Medical Japan Case Example

We care not only for the injured area but also provide full-body treatment to support both mental and physical recovery. We aim to address not only physical injuries but also the emotional trauma and anxiety about returning to daily life.

Ultrasound Therapy
Cervical Disc Herniation

Ultrasound is applied directly to the affected area using either thermal or non-thermal settings.

MRI scans are conducted at partner medical institutions to accurately identify affected areas and enhance treatment precision.
Ultrasound helps improve blood flow in deep tissues through thermal effects.

Before After
Herniated Disc
Cervical 3, 4, 5
±
Only Cervical 5 remains
Occipital Region Muscle Weakness Normal Muscle Strength

We also use advanced physiotherapy equipment combining high-frequency and ultrasound therapy (Astron). These help relax muscle tension and reduce the transmission of pain signals.

Voices of Our Satisfied Patients

I was involved in a rear-end collision and came here based on a friend’s recommendation. I was suffering from neck pain, headaches, and an overall sense of discomfort that was hard to describe. Each treatment session wasn’t very long, but every time I visited, they sincerely listened to my symptoms and any changes in my condition, and treated me with great care. Honestly, going frequently felt like a hassle at times, but I didn’t want to risk long-term aftereffects, so I made sure to come at least four or five times a week. Now, I’m completely symptom-free and living without any lingering effects. Looking back, I’m truly glad I kept going. They used various methods to treat even those vague, hard-to-express symptoms. I’m truly grateful—thank you so much.
