Supporting athletes to be in their best condition through physical therapy equipment

The project has been used by trainers and athletes not only in Japan but also around the world, by setting up body care rooms during competitions to reduce injuries and fatigue, and by using a variety of treatment equipment to ensure that athletes are in the best possible condition to compete.
In addition, by having athletes use the equipment not only during competitions but also during training camps and practices, the company will always keep them in top condition and provide backup for faster recovery in the event of injury.
