Recently, I have ongoing sessions with MR. ALAN PANG at Asia Physio-Tokyo, who is my physiotherapist since I was diagnosed with Osteoarthritis (OA) of the right knee in July 2023, to strengthen my muscles further, enabling me to perform other physical activities now that I am nearing the age of 60.
The clinic is cozy, quiet and equipped with the essential paraphernalia.
I highly recommend MR. PANG because he has the passion in his chosen profession. He is attentive and caring to his patient and possesses most of the top qualities of a physiotherapist. He is knowledgeable, thorough, astute, creative thinker, empathetic, flexible, adaptable, hands-on and maintains a follow-through method.
Successful result towards the goal requires commitment and dedication. It is a teamwork between the physiotherapist and patient.
Six (6) months ago, it was an excruciating painful struggle to stand on my own then remain standing for a few minutes much more to take a step and walk a short distance. Gradually, I was able to stand on my own, report for work, do the household chores again and go around my tiny place. After few sessions more, in August 2023, I was able to ride again the buses and trains including the subway. I was able to climb the stairs of the subway system and had a long walk in avenues and parks. On October 2023, I travelled alone to visit my nephews in USA and Canada from Tokyo. I had to line up for hours at the George Bush International Airport (IAH) and walk at the airports without the aid of a wheelchair or travellator. While on vacation, I was able to hike to a mountain in Victoria, BC, Canada.
I am due to go back to my home country in the near future, hoping to find a topnotch physiotherapist...
Read moreI’ve been doing physical therapy consistently for two years and recently relocated to Tokyo from Los Angeles. I was worried I wouldn’t find care that matched what I had back home but at this clinic, I’ve found something even better.
James’s strength-based approach to treating my thoracic outlet syndrome has been an absolute game-changer. I was hesitant to do any upper body weight training due to pain, but he immediately understood which muscles to target, how to support my alignment, and how to reintroduce movement safely. His protocol not only reduced my pain, but also restored my confidence in training (I’m still learning!). It’s like having a physical therapist and a personal trainer in one especially helpful in a city where finding a proper gym has been tough.
Haruno, who offers deep tissue and muscle release therapy, is equally remarkable. She intuitively understands the body’s patterns and listens deeply without me having to explain much at all. I had tried multiple massage therapists across Tokyo before realizing that this clinic offers everything I was searching for: integrated, attentive, and truly effective care.
After years of chronic pain, I feel like I can finally see a silver...
Read moreI recently had the opportunity to visit Tokyo Physio - Elite Clinic for Athletes again, and I must say it was an incredible experience! I opted for a full body massage course that lasted 90 minutes, and it made me feel absolutely fantastic.
The deep tissue care provided during the massage was exactly what I needed. The therapist targeted every trigger point, ensuring that all the tension and tightness in my muscles were addressed. While the massage itself was at times uncomfortable, especially when the therapist worked on tense areas, and I experienced some soreness for a few days after, the overall results were truly remarkable.
After the soreness subsided, my body felt light and rejuvenated. The massage helped release any built-up tension and provided a sense of deep relaxation. I truly appreciate the expertise and skill of the therapists at Tokyo Physio - Elite Clinic for Athletes.
I only wish that they would open a branch in Osaka-city soon because finding such skilled sports massage therapists in Osaka is quite challenging. I highly recommend Tokyo Physio - Elite Clinic for Athletes to anyone in search of professional care and an exceptional...
