Insomnia

Insomnia Improvement Program

In Japan, it is said that 1 in 5 people and 1 in 3 people over the age of 60 suffer from insomnia-related issues. Recently, the number of specialized clinics for insomnia has increased, and many methods and advice for improving insomnia are being highlighted in the media.

At our clinic, we provide care to improve symptoms even for those without a definitive diagnosis of insomnia but with subjective symptoms.

Autonomic Nervous System Diagnosis: TAS9 VIEW

By interpreting the changes in peripheral blood vessel volume as pulse waves and converting them into acceleration pulse waves, we can analyze peripheral blood circulation (vascular aging). By extracting and analyzing pulse rates from the intervals of pulse wave peaks, we can evaluate the balance of the autonomic nervous system.

• Analysis of pulse (heartbeat) variability (R-R intervals) in time and frequency domains
• HRV measurement screen and APG measurement screen
• Low frequency (LF) → Sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves / High frequency (HF) → Parasympathetic nerves

• Autonomic nervous system balance (sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves)
• Sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve activity levels
• Autonomic nerve activity (heart rate variability)
• Physical fatigue level, etc.

Objectively understanding the condition of the autonomic nervous system, which is one of the causes of insomnia, provides important information for determining the direction of treatment.

Pillow Diagnosis

This diagnosis is conducted simultaneously with the autonomic nervous system diagnosis.

Using pillows with a height of 0.5–7 cm, we determine the best height by checking the following three points. (We do not sell pillows.)

① Muscle tension in the neck (sternocleidomastoid muscle)
② Breath sounds of the upper chest during resting breathing
③ Diaphragm movement during forced breathing

Treatment and Support Program

• 
  Acupuncture

• 
  Chiropractic

• 
  Massage

In treating insomnia, it is crucial to release tension from the head to the shoulders and align the body correctly. Additionally, incorporating acupuncture alongside chiropractic and massage can help achieve better results in regulating the autonomic nervous system. For those who are new to acupuncture or uncomfortable with it, we do not enforce it, so please feel free to consult us.

We also propose additional care based on the progress of your symptoms.
There is no need to manage multiple appointments for activities like going to the gym for exercise or visiting a massage salon for oil treatments. We offer training and treatments tailored to your condition, so let’s work together to resolve your issues gradually.
