Under Japan's compulsory auto insurance (Jibaiseki), accident victims pay nothing at our clinic. Nationally licensed therapists care for your whiplash, neck and back pain — and we help you handle the insurance paperwork, too.
LINE messages: any language is welcome — English, Portuguese, Chinese, or anything else. We translate your message, and reply so you can read it. Ask us anything: your injury, the insurance process, or what to do after an accident.
Phone calls: Japanese only. If you don't speak Japanese, please use LINE instead — it works just as well and you'll have everything in writing.
At the clinic: our staff speak Japanese, but translation apps work great and we're patient — many international patients visit us.
Japan's accident system is generous to victims — but only if you know the rules. Two minutes here could be worth hundreds of thousands of yen to you.
Every car in Japan must carry compulsory liability insurance (Jibaiseki). It exists to pay for the victim's recovery. So when you're injured in an accident, that insurance — not you — pays for your care here. That's why your cost is ¥0.
Japan pays accident victims compensation (isharyō) for the pain of injury and hospital visits: roughly ¥8,600 per visit day under the Jibaiseki standard (4,300 × 2 × your visit days, capped by your treatment period). Attending regularly = being compensated properly.
Hospitals do tests and paperwork, but visits are short and often just painkillers and compresses. A sekkotsuin gives hands-on therapy for whiplash — the injury X-rays can't see — with evening & holiday hours. Same ¥0 insurance coverage applies.
Before choosing a hospital, before calling the insurer — message us. We explain the whole flow in your language, then guide you through each step, including a trusted partner hospital referral. You'll never be lost.
¥8,600 × 15 days = about ¥129,000 in compensation for you
And your therapy cost is ¥0 (paid by Jibaiseki insurance).
You lose nothing — just visit regularly so your body recovers, and Japanese law protects your rights.

* Rough estimate under the Jibaiseki standard (¥4,300/day). Calculated as ¥4,300 × the smaller of (visit days × 2) or (treatment period). Actual amounts vary by case; other standards (insurer / lawyer) can differ. Message us for a personal estimate — free.
After an accident in Japan, the paperwork can be harder than the injury. We handle both.
Care for accident injuries is covered by Jibaiseki (compulsory auto liability insurance). As the injured party, you pay nothing at the counter.
Our clinic's own program: patients receiving accident care can receive up to ¥20,000 — separate from any insurance compensation you claim.
You'll need a doctor's certificate (shindansho) for insurance. Don't know which hospital? We refer you to partner clinics and write the referral letter.
Trouble with the insurance company or fault percentages? We connect you with lawyers experienced in traffic accidents.
Our traffic-accident advisor tells you exactly what to say to the insurance company — even what to write, step by step.
Open until 8 PM for accident patients, open Saturdays and national holidays, free parking for 5 cars, kids' space inside.
Whiplash often appears 2–3 days after the accident, and X-rays usually look "normal" — because the damage is in muscles and ligaments, not bones. That's exactly what we treat.
⚠ Important: see a doctor within 14 days of the accident, or the insurance may not accept your injury. Not sure where to go? Message us first — we'll guide you.
Always report, even for small accidents — no police report means no insurance. Panicking? Message us on LINE and we'll walk you through it.

Before anything else, message us or come straight to BTG Sekkotsuin Komaki. We'll explain how the whole Japanese accident system works (insurance, compensation, what to say to whom), check your condition, and refer you to a trusted partner hospital with a referral letter. No guessing which hospital to pick.
At the hospital we referred, get the certificate (shindansho) — your official proof of injury. Without it, the insurance won't cover you, so don't skip this step.
You choose your clinic — just say "BTG Sekkotsuin Komaki". We'll coach you on exactly what to say. Therapy starts the same day; insurance, compensation, lawyers — one window for everything: us.
Yes. If you were injured in a traffic accident, Japan's compulsory auto liability insurance (Jibaiseki) covers your care, so your out-of-pocket cost at our clinic is ¥0 in principle. You may also be entitled to compensation (isharyō) of roughly ¥8,600 per visit day under the Jibaiseki standard.
Yes! Message us on LINE in your own language — we translate and reply. During visits, translation apps work fine. Only phone calls need Japanese.
Jibaiseki covers accident victims regardless of nationality. Bring your residence card and any accident papers you have — we'll sort out what's needed together, step by step.
Both, ideally: the hospital does tests and issues certificates; we provide the ongoing hands-on care that hospitals usually don't. Many patients visit the hospital monthly and us 2–3 times a week. We coordinate with partner hospitals, so start by messaging us.
Legally, you choose where to receive care — not the insurance company. If they push back, our advisor supports you, and we can introduce a partner lawyer experienced in traffic accidents. Don't give up your rights.
