"As a violinist who has suffered from chronic pain for nearly a decade after an injury, seeing Kenichi at Kiyama Bodyworks has been life-changing. I had sought help from numerous health practitioners, including acupuncturists, chiropractors, and physical therapists. While I initially responded to treatment, the effects always wore off after a few months. I was close to giving up hope, accepting that I might never play the violin professionally—or without pain—again, until I met Kenichi and discovered Sotai.

Though my healing journey has had its ups and downs, I’ve experienced far greater improvement with Kenichi’s Sotai treatment than with any other therapy. His background as a violinist is an added bonus, as his personal experience allows us to work together to identify flaws and make improvements in my playing.

I am deeply grateful for Kenichi’s expertise, empathy, and dedication. His Sotai treatment, combined with his positive demeanor and vast knowledge of the human body, has made a significant difference in my healing process. Thanks to his care, I have experienced lasting improvements that no other therapy has provided, greatly enhancing my quality of life. I highly recommend Kenichi at Kiyama Bodyworks to anyone seeking effective, compassionate care through Sotai treatment."
