At our clinic, we have seen significant progress in the treatment of various types of muscular dystrophy.
The following results include improvements in muscle strength and muscle mass across these conditions:
Myotonic Dystrophy
Becker Muscular Dystrophy
Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD)
Fukuyama Congenital Muscular Dystrophy
In addition, measurable improvements in muscle strength have been observed in:
Ullrich Congenital Muscular Dystrophy
Miyoshi Myopathy
Distal Myopathies
Examples of Improvement
Myotonic Dystrophy
Female, 30s (Approx. 700 sessions)
Significant improvements within about 4 months:
Reduced myotonia symptoms
Increased grip strength
Increased muscle mass
15-minute core muscle therapy resulted in improved torso rotation
Improvement in thumb stiffness
Enhanced leg strength for walking (notably in high-knee stepping after 15-minute treatment)
Male, 30s (Approx. 200–300 sessions)
Myotonia symptoms improved after 8 treatment sessions
Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)
Female, 20s (from Malaysia)
After 7 weeks (3 sessions per week):
Gained ability to lift her left leg using gluteal muscles while keeping it extended
After 6 weeks (3 sessions per week):
Facial muscle mass increased, resulting in more expressive facial movement and improved lip shape
Muscle mass in arms and shoulders increased, improving mobility
Lip shape change confirmed between February 28 and April 4
Patient from the U.S.
A rare case showing improvements in both muscle mass and strength — currently only observed at our clinic.
Clients now travel from overseas to receive treatment.
Progress Timeline:
After 2 weeks of FSHD treatment
After 3, 4 (1 month), 5, 6, and 7 weeks of treatment
Patient testimonial:
“I came from the U.S. hoping for results—and I got more than I imagined. It was an incredible experience. My right arm regained function, and my left arm also improved. The staff were kind and helpful. Thank you all so much!”

From his mother (on a video post):
“Adam! You’ve improved so much! I’m so happy to see your progress.” His father (with Japanese translation): “Thank you for what you’ve done for my son.”

Female, 20s
1 session/week for ~6 months:
Regained ability to lift her leg while keeping it straight using her glutes
Previously unable to lift the leg at all; now able to lift and hold it
Male, 50s
1 month of treatment:
Improved upper arm strength and smoother elbow bending
Male, 30s
Several sessions:
Regained ability to bend upper arms, which hadn’t moved for 5–6 years while bedridden
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)
Male, 8–9 years old (without steroids)
Age 8–10 is a critical period with rapid functional decline, often leading to loss of walking ability
This patient has maintained better function than at age 8
1 session/week:
After 3 months:
Improved stability and fewer falls
After 6 months:
Even faster walking and improved posture compared to month 5
After 8 months:
No signs of disease progression; actually better than 6 months ago
Fewer falls, increased walking speed
Able to climb steps unaided for the first time
After 12 months:
Despite the age range where severe decline typically occurs, he has remained stable
Previously fell dozens of times per day; now only once per week at most
Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD)Female, 30s
Easier to raise both arms
Improved ability to dry hair, reach for items, and reduce fatigue
Distal Myopathy
Female, 30s
Unable to visit regularly; showed improvement after a single trial session
Squatting and standing became easier
While still needing arm support, improved leg strength led to smoother balance and motion
Becker Muscular DystrophyMale, 10 years old
Thigh strengthening (30-minute session):
Improved stability in squats; reduced knee wobbling
