About
Located in Ohara-cho, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture, Ashiya Orthopedic Sports Clinic is an orthopedic clinic specializing in shoulder joint treatment. The director is a board-certified specialist of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association and draws on experience as a sports doctor to treat patients ranging from athletes to seniors. A key feature of the clinic is the active use of ultrasound examinations for diagnosis. By observing the joint's internal condition in real-time during movement, the clinic can identify muscle and tendon injuries that X-rays cannot capture, leading to precise treatments such as ultrasound-guided hydrolysis. When surgery is necessary, arthroscopic surgery is the first choice, employing a minimally invasive approach with small incisions to reduce physical burden. The clinic also offers advanced treatment options including PRP therapy (regenerative medicine) and extracorporeal shock wave therapy, providing comprehensive non-surgical approaches. Clinical departments include shoulder joint outpatient care, dislocation specialty outpatient care, general orthopedics, sports orthopedics, rehabilitation, and traffic accident/work injury treatment. Many experienced physical therapists are on staff, providing rehabilitation aimed not only at pain relief but also at recurrence prevention and performance improvement through team-based care in coordination with physicians. The clinic operates until 8 PM on weekdays, accommodates English-speaking patients, accepts credit cards and electronic payments, and features barrier-free facilities.
