TREATMENT
Joint Treatments
We review your symptoms and test results, then explain a treatment plan, including whether it suits you, its cost and its risks.
Joint Injections
We offer stem cell therapy and other treatments for the knee, hip, foot, ankle and other joints. Because preparation time differs from one treatment to another, we assess your condition at your first visit and then explain the schedule.
| Stem Cell Therapy | Treatment by injection into the joint. Culturing the cells takes about a month. The treatment plan includes steps such as blood tests and fat collection. |
|---|---|
| PRP | A self-pay treatment offered at the clinic. The doctor explains the preparation and treatment schedule at your examination. |
| Exosomes | A self-pay treatment offered at the clinic. Please ask the doctor whether it can be done on the day of your visit, which symptoms it is used for and how it is given. |
Preparation time and the number of visits needed depend on the treatment you choose and on your condition. We cannot promise treatment on the day of your visit.
Same-Day Surgery
We perform surgery for osteonecrosis of the femoral head, osteonecrosis of the knee, foot or ankle, and osteoarthritis. Whether surgery is suitable is decided through examination and tests. It is sometimes combined with stem cell therapy.
If a hospital stay would be difficult for you, tell us about your situation. We explain how to take care of yourself after surgery, the follow-up visits, and when you can return to work or exercise, based on the treatment you receive.
If another treatment is appropriate, we refer you to a partner hospital.
If our treatments are not suitable for you, we refer you to one of our partner hospitals, such as Toranomon Hospital, to consider other treatment, including joint replacement surgery. We also ask whether you hope to keep your own joint, and we consider the options that fit your condition.
What to check before deciding on treatment
- Whether it suits your condition, and what alternative treatments there are
- What you can expect from it, its limits, and the main risks and side effects
- The total cost, any additional costs, the number of visits and how long treatment takes
Start by telling us about your concerns.
We will call you within two clinic days (not counting days the clinic is closed).
Your appointment is confirmed once we agree on a date and time by phone.
