ILC International Low Back Pain Clinic Expands in Nagoya
The ILC International Low Back Pain Clinic, known for its pioneering approach to back pain treatment, is set to open its third location in Nagoya on August 1, 2025. The clinic operates under the guiding principle of achieving 100% treatment effectiveness, emphasizing safe, easily accessible care for patients.
The clinic showcases advanced methods, including the Sergel Method, implemented in over 54 countries worldwide, and the one-day treatment for spinal stenosis known as the Florence Method. This focus on progressive, international medical practices allows the clinic to support patients who have faced difficulties with surgery elsewhere or who have experienced recurrences post-surgery. This patient-centric care ensures that even elderly individuals over 80 can receive treatment without hospitalization, significantly minimizing risks and discomfort.
At the Nagoya location, each patient will benefit from a comprehensive 30 to 45-minute consultation with a physician. During this time, a dedicated back pain coordinator will provide a detailed 30-minute discussion regarding potential procedures. The aim is to ensure that patients feel informed and comfortable before proceeding with any treatments. Additionally, a well-rounded team of physicians, nurses, physical therapists, acupuncturists, and nutritionists is available to address lifestyle improvements alongside traditional medical interventions. After their treatment, patients will continue to be monitored by specialized staff to contribute toward achieving the clinic's commitment to 100% treatment efficacy.
