Welcome! I’m Yuji Kitano, your physiotherapist here at Yokohama Physio.

I understand how challenging it can be to live in a new country, especially when you're in pain or trying to recover from an injury. Years ago, when I first lived abroad as a physiotherapy trainee in New Zealand, I hardly spoke English and struggled to navigate the healthcare system myself. That experience taught me just how important it is to feel understood and supported—especially when you're vulnerable.

At Yokohama Physio, I wanted to create a space where English speakers—whether you're an expat, traveler, or international student—can receive professional care without language or cultural barriers. Having worked with Olympic-level athletes and families alike, I focus on finding the root cause of your pain so you can return to doing what you love.

Whether you're dealing with work-related tension, sports injuries, or simply looking for preventive care, you're in the right place. We're here to listen, guide, and support your recovery every step of the way—in English.

Let’s get you back to living pain-free.
