リハビリテーションクリニック リハブ土田は、腰痛・膝痛・麻痺・痺れに関節運動学的アプローチ-博田法(AKA-H)を中心に治療致します

Now I’m starting a new type clinic at Meguro in Japan.
I have acquired a kind of  technical confidence in Arthro-Kinematic Approach-Hakata method (AKA-H).

In 1927, Thomas Walmsley advanced the theory that AKA was the field of investigation for intra-articular movements. In 1949, Mennell introduced through the investigation of arthrokinematic approach involving the voluntary movements on full range motion; this movement named the accessory motion distributed the main factors of the concomitant movement of the joint. Hakata Method is the method to treat abnormalities of the intra-articular movements such as joint play, rolling, sliding, and spinning of the joint surface. The most important characteristic of Hakata method is that it is restricted to treat synovial joints including spinal facet joint, sacroiliac joint, costovertebral joint, and sternocostal joint.

This method is devised to treat abnormalities of the intra-articular movement of the joint surface.

1. Intra-articular causes
organic lesions
a. joint fusion
b. destruction or deformity of joint surface
c. rupture or loosening of joint capsule & ligament
d. adhesion or shortening of joint capsule & ligament functional disorder
primary joint dysfunction

2. Extra-articular causes
secondary joint dysfunction

Hakata method is the unique treatment of joint dysfunction. Dr. Hakata is continuing to develop the further skills and the practical effectiveness of Hakata method. He takes particular note of articular neurology reported by Wyke B. 1972.
Now we strive to verify evidence of this treatment, and to lead the prevalence not just in Japan but worldwide.
