About
Located in Yuzawa City, Akita Prefecture, Ikeda Women's Clinic is a medical facility operated by the Medical Corporation Seiwakai, specializing in obstetrics and gynecology as well as internal medicine. A notable feature of this clinic is its adoption of the sophrology method of childbirth, which originated in France. Unlike the Lamaze method, this approach emphasizes childbirth without straining, aiming to maximize women's inherent natural birthing abilities. By combining it with aromatherapy and maternity yoga, the clinic supports childbirth in a physically and mentally relaxed state. The clinic offers comprehensive programs from pregnancy to postpartum, including pelvic care starting around the 9th week of pregnancy, weekly baby bonding care massage classes, and maternity body care. For postpartum care, the clinic provides short-stay programs (until 4 months postpartum) and, since April 2024, day-care programs (until 2 months postpartum), welcoming those who gave birth at other hospitals and mothers of twins. In gynecology, the clinic provides a wide range of care from adolescence through menopause, as well as infertility examinations, treatment, and in vitro fertilization (IVF-ET). The clinic has parking facilities, is barrier-free accessible, and offers medical consultations in English.
