Our Treatment Method

Chiropractic CBP Treatment Method
Developed by Dr. Donald Harrison in 1980, CBP ( Chiropractic Biophysics), developed by Dr. Donald Harrison in 1980, uses x-rays to analyze the patient's spine in detail and compares it to an ideal spine calculated through the application of mathematics and physics. The patient's posture is then improved and the distorted spine is corrected so that the patient's spine is closer to the ideal. Fundamental treatment will help prevent future problems.

About our CBP treatment method
We use a combination of exercises, adjustments, and tranctions using the mirror image method. The mirror image method is a way to restore the original ideal shape, so much so that some patients fall asleep during traction because they say it feels so good.

*Mirror Image is a registered trademark of CBP

Root Treatment and Prevention of Numbness and Pain

The normal spine is straight when viewed from the front and has three curves when viewed from the side.

The most ideal spine shape for humans is straight when viewed from the front and has three curves each for the neck, back, and hips when viewed from the side. If the spine is not straight when viewed from the front, or if the curves are missing or reversed when viewed from the side, the discs between the vertebrae are crushed and the nerves are compressed, causing pain ・ and numbness, and the surrounding ligaments and muscles are also unbalanced, and human functions that should be working The ligaments and muscles around them become unbalanced, and the human functions that should be working do not work properly.

Patient's Voice

・ I have suffered from back pain for 30 years, and it only got worse with each passing back injury. I decided to try CBP treatment. I was surprised to find out on my first x-ray that my spine was crooked, my neck was straight, and the disc between my lumbar vertebrae and sacrum was worn out. The traction, which was uncomfortable at first, felt good once I got used to it, and after three months, I had a curve in my neck, some healing of the spinal distortion, improved posture, and even eliminated my headaches. I am glad I started going to the clinic because of the kind, positive and friendly doctor who takes good care of me.

・ I was diagnosed with scoliosis as a child and have tried various exercises and treatments to no avail. I also developed back pain after giving birth, and recently I had ankle pain as well, so I gave up. The pain in my back disappeared and my physical condition has improved greatly. I think that the CBP treatment method is truly revolutionary. I visited her after reading an article about a revolutionary treatment method that doesn't involve any bouncing. I was convinced after checking the x-rays and understanding the problem area well. He made a treatment plan that fit my work schedule, and my symptoms finally improved. I have spent a lot of time and money here and there for treatment of my severe headaches ・ I can say goodbye to my stiff shoulders ！

・ I was in a car accident over 10 years ago and had been to chiropractic and physical therapy for several months. I thought I knew a lot about chiropractic care. However, when I came to see Dr. Sumiko, I received treatment that I had never experienced before. Within a month or so of coming to see her, I was not waking up in the middle of the night with numbness in my arms and hands anymore. Also, I had been coughing for more than a month every time I had a cold, but after I started receiving his CBP treatment, the coughing subsided within a week or so.

・ I had been hiking in the mountains on weekends as a habit for many years and began to experience pain in my left knee. After seeing Dr. Missimer, I found that my posture was bad and my left-right balance was also bad. I travel a lot and was unable to attend treatment regularly, but he was able to work things out for me when he was not traveling. He also taught me exercises that I could easily do at home or on business trips. Thanks to his help, I am able to enjoy weekend hikes in the mountains again after the treatment.

・ He came to see me because of stiffness in his shoulder and stabbing pain in his right shoulder （ and right upper arm ）. He analyzed her symptoms with x-rays and explained that chronic shoulder stiffness was also affecting her right shoulder pain. After several weeks of ultrasound （ Ultrasound ） treatment, the pain in her right shoulder gradually diminished and did not bother her at all in her daily life. After the treatment of my right shoulder, the correction of the distortion of my neck also relieved me of the stiffness in my shoulders that I had been suffering from for many years.
