Pilates & Massage Therapist at Tokyo Physio

(Advertising)

All pre and post natal women are required to have the Ok from their physicians before beginning their exercise program at Tokyo Physio.

Prenatal
Your PRENATAL sessions will include a personal program relative to your needs, injuries and through each trimester specifically. We will teach you how to remain structurally strong throughout your pregnancy without harm. The stronger and more structurally sound your body is before, the quicker you get back to you after!
This class helps 1st, 2nd, or 3rd trimester Moms-to-be discover the ideal postural alignment needed to carry them comfortably through pregnancy, delivery and beyond! Focus will be on strengthening and maintaining strength of the deep postural muscles and the stabilizing muscles of the trunk, pelvis and shoulder girdle. This class also incorporates gentle, targeted stretching and mobilization of areas prone to tension. Props such as BOSUs, Arc's, Pilates circles and Stability Balls are used throughout the classes to hold the body at a comfortable incline, keeping exercises safe for Moms-to-be at any stage of pregnancy.  First session must be a one on one.

Postnatal
Your sessions must begin with a private, 60 minutes series of lessons. We will consider what kind of delivery you experienced, your recovery and healing experience, and your current abilities or injuries. These sessions will involve perineal and abdominal re-training, with focus on posture and spinal health; we want to ease that strain on your body. You are allowed to bring your baby along to the session if you would like, as long you are comfortable with being interrupted now and then ;)

Depending on your fitness level and your childbirth, it is recommended that women wait 4-6 weeks before exercising. Women who had a C-section may want to wait longer. Listen to your body and check with your doctor.

Chiropractic treatment for pregnancy, after delivery and babies @ Suto Healing Center

Suto Healing Center is a family-operated clinic which was established in 1997. We have two departments, the Chiropractic department and the Bio-energy department.

Chiropractic treatment for Pregnancy and after the delivery
Chiropractic is effective for balancing your whole body, mainly through your spine.
We strengthen nerve regulatory function with a gentle approach which can apply from a newborn baby to elderly people. To improve and maintain good body balance, we discuss your lifestyle and advise you to do some exercises.
During the pregnancy and after the delivery, a mother’s body will change with the baby’s growth. To adjust with this dynamic changing, we can help you to balance your body as a whole. We believe that good body balance allows the body to harness its natural healing power in order to sustain a healthy body and mind.

Chiropractic treatment for babies and kids
We believe that chiropractic care for babies promotes natural and wholesome growth of the child. Imbalance of the spine in children may lead to loss of appetite, stomach problems, awkwardness in movement, and a longer recovery time from symptoms. From our clinical experience, we found out that when treating children under 3 years old, we have better results if we do the treatment with their mother at the same time. As a mother’s body becomes more comfortable, the child can benefit from the mother’s sense of relief and peace.

Bio-Energy work
In the Bio-energy department, the therapist does counseling and hands on energy work on the bed. In the energy work, the therapist touches the client’s body very gently to balance and charge his or her auric energy field and seven chakras.
The client will release the emotional block which lays at the subconscious level through the counseling and the energy work. It leads to heal their life trauma, and resolve the difficulty in relationships with others. As a healing process, many clients changed their way of living and improved their relationships. Their physical condition also can be improved.
For children, the therapist will catch a child’s nonverbal message in the energy field through the energy work. Then, the therapist discusses with the mother what is helpful for the child.

Thai House Massage for Women and families

Thai House is operated by Surintorn Grasmueck, an experienced Thai masseuse trained at WATPO Thai Traditional Medical School in Bangkok.

Prenatal  Massage
We offer prenatal massage for women in their 6th to 8th month of pregnancy. This is a light, slow massage designed to lower anxiety and stress, decrease back, leg and shoulder pain and improve sleep.
5,000 yen (60 minutes)

Postnatal Healing Course 
Why it is good for new mothers after childbirth
Traditional Thai massage is recommended for mothers after childbirth to help the tired body regenerate itself more quickly. Postnatal massage helps reduce stress, enhances milk production and improves blood circulation. The mother's womb recovers more quickly, making it easier to regain her pre-pregnancy weight.
Content of the course
Each session begins with a Thai Body Massage. This is followed by a Herbal Ball Massage and Herbal Steam Sauna treatment, which works on tense muscle areas and promotes the flow of energy. 
How long it takes
This unique postnatal healing treatment course runs for 3, 5 or 7 days, depending on the mother's individual needs and the amount of time available.
Each session lasts about 2.5 hours per day. Women who give birth naturally may begin treatment 7 days after giving birth, but those who underwent a cesarean section, or surgery of any kind, must wait at least 30 days post-partum, or until all wounds have healed completely.

Full breakdown of each session:
* Thai Body Massage For Postpartum Mothers (60 minutes) * Herbal Ball Massage (30 minutes) * Oil Massage (30 minutes) * Herbal Steam Sauna (30 minutes)
Postnatal Healing Course for New Mothers: 30,000 yen (3-day course) or 10,000 yen for 1 day
