What people say about Yokohama Physio

Ayako Kennedy
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had surgery on tibial plateau fracture from snowboarding accident in Feb last year. During my recovery, multiple orthopaedic surgeons told me I could never snowboard again. I was quite desperate when I met Yuji in August, but he simply said he could fix me without hesitation! After a course of pain solving and strengthening with a bit of Yuji magic for only 6 months, I was back on snowboarding by following Feb. Just amazing. He is very knowledgeable, skilful and accommodating. I am truly grateful.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I went to Yuji at Yokohama Physio after having persistent lower back pain for 5 months. He was extremely knowledgeable and helped provide immediate relief to the pain. I had seen other specialists prior to Yuji, but they did not provide much relief. Over several visits, he was able to discover the source of my problem and provided suggestions on how to mitigate back pack moving forward. I highly recommend him!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I broke my ankle and had surgery a few years ago, and ever since, I haven’t been able to do squats properly. Despite being very active, I’ve struggled with stability issues. Yuji quickly identified the root of the problem—something no other therapist or acupuncturist has been able to figure out. Thanks to his expertise, I’m now able to do squats again and have improved both my strength and mobility. And he is fully bilingual English/Japanese!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I hurt my foot while on holiday in Yokohama and was lucky to get a same-day physio appointment by sending a WhatsApp to the physio. He speaks excellent English, provided immediate pain relief, and my foot is fully back to normal. He also shared great Yokohama recommendations, which made my trip even better. Highly recommend Yuji for professional fast, effective treatment!

“It took me 3-4 months to get better before, but with Yuji, it took me 3-4 weeks from excruciating pain to no pain. That’s incredible!”
