Meisei Chinese Medicine Clinic
About
Located in Sakaiminami-cho, Musashino City, Tokyo, Myōjō Kampo Clinic is an internal medicine practice specializing in traditional Chinese medicine. A defining feature of this clinic is its appointment-only system, where each patient receives 30 minutes to one hour of thorough constitutional diagnosis. Rather than relying solely on disease names to prescribe standardized treatments, the clinic's director carefully assesses each patient's individual constitution and personally compounds and prescribes Kampo medicines on-site. This approach, faithful to the fundamentals of Chinese medicine—prescribing different treatments for the same condition based on individual constitution—reflects the clinic's treatment philosophy, which remains particularly valuable given the scarcity of Kampo specialists today. The clinic also emphasizes improving constitution and strengthening natural healing powers, aiming to prevent recurrence and maintain health by addressing not just symptoms but the underlying constitution. All prescribed Kampo medicines are carefully selected and sourced domestically and internationally by the director, with easy-to-take forms such as powdered types available. For those seeking authentic Kampo medical care, this clinic offers a highly specialized option.
