Ama Nakagawa Orthopedics & Hand Clinic
About
Located in Shippo-cho, Ama City, Aichi Prefecture, Ama Nakagawa Orthopedics & Hand Clinic is an orthopedic clinic staffed by specialists certified by the Japanese Orthopaedic Association and the Japanese Society for Surgery of the Hand. The clinic primarily treats hand-related conditions while also addressing a wide range of orthopedic issues including neck and lower back pain, osteoarthritis, and sports injuries. A distinctive feature of the clinic is its emphasis on rehabilitation that focuses on movement-based recovery rather than relying solely on patches and painkillers. Physicians collaborate with physical and occupational therapists to provide comprehensive support, from pain relief to improving daily living activities and preventing recurrence. The clinic also offers same-day hand surgery on Tuesday afternoons, treating conditions such as trigger finger, carpal tunnel syndrome, and cubital tunnel syndrome. Advanced treatments using ultrasound diagnostic equipment are available, including silent manipulation for frozen shoulder and hydrorelease for pain and numbness. The clinic provides standard treatments for osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis based on the latest guidelines. English-speaking support is available, and the clinic accepts various payment methods including credit cards, debit cards, and electronic payments. Parking and barrier-free facilities are also available. Clinic hours are 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, closed on Sundays and public holidays.
