Matsubara Psychosomatic Medicine
About
Matsubara Psychosomatic Clinic is a medical facility located on the 4th floor of ATRIA Roppomatsu in the Roppomatsu area of Chuo Ward, Fukuoka City. Director Dr. Shin Matsubara holds certifications as a designated mental health physician and psychiatry specialist supervisor, along with expertise as a training supervisor in psychosomatic medicine. This enables the clinic to address a broad range of conditions — from psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder to psychosomatic conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) — which stands as one of the clinic's defining strengths. The clinic has particular expertise in hypnotherapy for IBS and follows a treatment philosophy that avoids over-reliance on medication, consistently pursuing autonomic nervous system stabilization for each patient through autogenic training and self-hypnosis. Dr. Matsubara also holds certification as a licensed autogenic training physician. The building housing the clinic contains multiple specialized medical facilities and a dispensing pharmacy, creating an environment where a complete course of treatment can be arranged within the building through coordinated care as needed. English-language services are available, and the clinic accepts credit cards and electronic payments with barrier-free accessibility, making it a welcoming environment for patients from diverse backgrounds. Consultation hours are 9:00 AM–12:00 PM and 2:00–5:00 PM, with the clinic closed on weekends and public holidays.
