On a mission to solve the root problems of physical ailments: Dedicated to maintaining and improving health while caring for the environment
Mark Therapy Laboratory has the mission of offering answers to the body’s issues, and through our three businesses of bodywork/care salon treatments, product development, and training sessions, we operate under the vision of being a "partner that supports your body in all aspects.
Considering our Carbon Footprint:
Developing Products that Enhance Quality of Life
We have developed products aimed at improving health and comfort, including those designed to give full-on care to the neck, in addition to water pillows designed for pressure dispersion and an ideal fit. In addition to striving for safety and peace of mind, going forward we will continue to work on environmental efforts like calculating CO2 emissions at the material processing stage.
Guidelines and clinical practice for basic health maintenance
Many factors play a role in maintaining good health, but posture and the skeletal structure play a particularly important one. Accurate alignment of the spine, from the pelvis to the spinal column, including the lower back, neck, and shoulders, often eliminates physical discomfort. We have focused on this correlation and has developed a three-pronged business of clinical outpatient services, research papers, and the development and marketing of products that take the skeletal structure into consideration, using our high level of expertise and experience in this field.
In particular, in the clinical field, we have studied the human skeleton’s shape formation process, taking into consideration the fact that humans are organisms living under gravitational and atmospheric pressures on the ground and have bone shapes that adapt to dynamic factors like impact loading. We are presently studying the correlation between stress transfer point discontinuity at each joint in musculoskeletal injuries and associated symptoms. Our aim is to utilize these findings in treatment approaches, particularly considering the skeletal shape formation process in the affected symptomatic area.
Positioning on proceeding with product development
In developing and selling products that take the human skeleton into account, we specialize in items used in daily life including chairs, pillows, and support clothing. These products are designed to assist the correct positioning of the pelvis and spine and to reduce the strain on the body caused by prolonged use. They contribute significantly to improving people’s daily quality of life, especially in today's society where many people work at desks.
In addition, since many of our products are in direct contact with the human body, we have developed them with consideration given to the safety and security of the materials. In addition, we strive to provide products that are also valuable from the perspective of sustainability, by carrying out product development that takes the global environment into consideration in ways like carbon footprint efforts. By using renewable materials, reducing energy consumption in the manufacturing process, and designing products with long service life, we can aim for consumer health and comfort while minimizing our impact on the environment.
What our laboratory aims to achieve through awareness-raising activities
We offer educational programs for the general public based on the knowledge and experience we have gained in our business. In this way, we help achieve a healthier society by spreading information and techniques useful for maintaining and improving health on an individual level.
At the same time, the knowledge we gain through writing research papers enhances the development of methodologies based on scientific evidence. When we can share this research at academic conferences, in journals, etc., and have it widely accepted in the industry, that will raise the overall standard of treatment techniques. It may also lead to the discovery of new treatments and prevention methods through academic research, which can contribute to the advancement of medicine over the long term.
In this way, our activities aim to contribute to society not only in terms of direct treatment and product development, but also in terms of research and education. Our goal is to improve people's quality of life through skeletal and postural health.
