  • 明けましておめでとうございます！

    明けましておめでとうございます！

    Hello everyone, Happy New Year! Today is January 3, 2024, and we have just started a new year.

    At the beginning of the new year, it’s important for us to have hope and to look back at the past. I hope this new year will be full of happiness and success for all of you.

    Unfortunately, this year started with a big earthquake in Japan. A lot of people are having a hard time because of the earthquake that happened on January 1st in the Noto Peninsula. I want to send my deepest sympathies to those affected. I hope you can get back to safe and peaceful days soon.

    Also, there are still wars and troubles happening around the world. I’m really worried about what’s happening in Ukraine and the Gaza Strip. Let’s think about the people in these areas as the new year begins and what we can do for peace.

    I hope 2024 will be a year where we can overcome difficulties and find new hope. I believe each of us can help make the world a peaceful place, even with small actions.

    Please continue to support me this year. I wish you and your family a healthy, safe, and happy year.

    Japan Body Care Academy is a school that trains therapists. Still, we also have people who want to learn Oriental medicine and the Taniguchi Method to maintain the health of their families.

    So we sometimes lay mats on the floor and practice giving treatments without a bed.

    Here is a video of us practicing meridian head care on a mat at our Tokyo School in Higashi-Ginza, Tokyo.

  • Sleep disorders in Japan

    Sleep disorders in Japan

    Currently, it is said that one in five people in Japan, or 15 to 20 million people, suffer from sleep disorders.

    However, it is difficult to imagine 15 million people.

    Since the population of Tokyo is approximately 14 million, this means that the same number of people in Tokyo suffer from sleep disorders on a daily basis.
