You see books like this on sale too, right?↓
Even
, who had never once had stiff shoulders at age 41,
has finally started feeling tightness in his back over the past six months, probably because of a lack of exercise and a job that involves facing off with a computer all day.
also, of course, has seriously stiff shoulders.
Just when we were thinking, “Isn’t there something we can do about this?”, we found an interesting place.

Show Us the Place
Two of us from Nishinomiya Tsushin,
and
, went to visit かがやき鍼灸整体院!

They can treat one person at a time. Can you feel how stylish this place is?

This is where you have a consultation before the treatment. It’s a very calming space.

There are some nice-looking items placed around. I love the size of this houseplant. I want one.

The treatment room has a very natural feel.
We Actually Tried Scapula Release

First, you fill in the necessary information on a consultation form.
Maybe because he was excited,
was writing it with a huge grin on his face. Why though?

This is the kind of thing you write.
If you’re reading this article and visit the clinic, of course please write “I saw it on Nishitsu” for how you heard about them.
This is Director Mizoshita of かがやき鍼灸整体院↓

Wow! A fresh, good-looking guy!
What he’s holding is a wreath shaped like the “K” in “Kagayaki” Acupuncture and Chiropractic Clinic.
Maybe we should ask him to make an “N” for Nishitsu too.
Director Mizoshita holds three national qualifications: judo therapist, acupuncturist, and moxibustion practitioner.
He studied acute and chronic conditions for five years at an osteopathic clinic in Osaka and for about eight years in the rehabilitation department of a clinic in the city.


“Because of my job, I spend a lot of time working on a computer, so my shoulders get stiff easily.”

“When computer work is the cause, it can change quite a bit depending on the position of your hands.”

“I wonder what position they were in.”

“It’s best to adjust things so your elbows are at 90 degrees.
Now then, let’s take a quick look.”

He checks how much range of motion the body has.


“Daa, I can’t see your shoulder blades at all.”

“This area is stiff, so the shoulder blades aren’t lifting away at all.”

“No waaaaay!”

“Then let’s give it a try.”

かがやき鍼灸整体院 has introduced the latest equipment, developed in Nishinomiya City.
It’s called an Electro Treatment System.
To put it very simply, it’s a made in Japan machine that uses electrical power to move the muscles properly.
Using this, it’s expected to help improve pain and stiffness by moving deep muscles inside the body, such as the inner muscles around the shoulder blades, which used to be difficult to reach by hand alone!

He tries it on the right shoulder blade. This is how it’s applied.
With this machine, the sensation on the skin feels like a weak vibrating massager being placed against you. It reminded me of the feeling of sitting in an electric bath.
After a little while, you start to notice the electricity flowing deep into your abdomen, around the abs, with a heavy, buzzing sensation, which feels really strange too.
Also, if it touches areas where your skin has cuts or irritation, there’s a prickling pain. It depends on the person, but the pain was manageable.
※They can avoid areas where you feel pain while performing the treatment.
