Treatment Methods
Painless Japanese Acupuncture: Effective Relief for Chronic Pain, Insomnia and more
Japanese acupuncture is renowned for its effectiveness in treating chronic pain, insomnia, and stress-related conditions. One reason it is so gentle lies in the design of the needles: ultra-thin, as fine as a strand of hair, and coated with a layer of silicone for smoother, nearly painless insertion. Most patients feel only a mild tingling or no sensation at all, making treatments exceptionally comfortable.
Alongside acupuncture, Japanese therapy also incorporates other effective methods like moxibustion, cupping, and herbal foot baths, which further enhance healing and provide holistic relief, especially for persistent pain and tension.
Common Conditions
Do you experience any of these health issues?
Example of Treatment Result
Most customers have persistent pain that doesn't improve with massage therapy or Western medicine. However, after just 1 to 2 treatment sessions at Fuji Wellness, their health shows significant improvement.
Neck Pain Relief After Years of Discomfort
A female patient came to us with severe neck pain that had persisted for over three years. Despite regularly practicing yoga and visiting massage therapists, she found no lasting relief and struggled to look up without pain. After just one treatment with Japanese acupuncture and moxibustion, her neck pain significantly decreased, and she regained flexibility. Following a second session, her neck pain was completely gone. To prevent recurrence, she received tips on keeping her neck warm during the cold winter months.
Relief from Back Pain for Desk Workers
A male patient, experiencing chronic lower back pain due to prolonged sitting and sports injuries, found it painful to bend over and often felt discomfort. After a single acupuncture treatment, his pain lessened, and his flexibility improved. We also provided him with recommendations on adjusting his sitting posture to support his lower back, helping him maintain a healthier posture and prevent future discomfort.
Relief from Herniated Disc Pain
A male patient visited Fuji Wellness with lower back pain caused by a herniated disc. He often felt pain spreading from the lower back to the hip and leg, especially after long hours of sitting or standing, and daily movements such as bending forward, getting up, or walking for a long time became uncomfortable. After receiving acupuncture treatment, his lower back tension was reduced, the pain became lighter, and his movement improved. While acupuncture cannot “remove” a herniated disc, it may help reduce pain, improve mobility, and support the body’s natural recovery process. We also advised him on posture, sitting habits, and daily care to help prevent the pain from returning.
Shoulder pain treatment result
A female patient in her mid-40s, who works as a house helper, visited Fuji Wellness with strong shoulder pain and limited shoulder movement. At first, she thought it was just normal muscle stiffness from housework, but her symptoms turned out to be frozen shoulder. She had difficulty lifting her arm, reaching backward, and moving her shoulder freely during daily tasks. After acupuncture treatment, the tension around her shoulder, neck, and upper back was reduced, and her shoulder movement became smoother. Acupuncture helped relax the deep muscles, improve blood circulation, and reduce stiffness around the shoulder joint. We also advised her on gentle daily movements and self-care to support recovery and prevent the shoulder from becoming stiff again.
