Brain Sleep Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kosuke Michibata; hereinafter referred to as "Brain Sleep") has supported the introduction of the "Sleep Standard Deviation Improvement Program" to be launched on August 16th at VIVA Pelvic Chiropractic and Osteopathic Clinic Sanda in Sanda City, Hyogo Prefecture, operated by Loop Quest Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Senboku-gun, Osaka; CEO: Takehiro Asai; hereinafter referred to as "Loop Quest"), a comprehensive medical group that operates mainly in the osteopathic clinic business. This program was developed by introducing a training program supervised by Seiji Nishino, author of "The Stanford Method for the Best Sleep". By incorporating the method advocated by "Brain Sleep" for obtaining good quality sleep into the original treatment method for correcting physical disorders, we have been able to realize a sleep standard deviation improvement program that can better support daily health. Background to the introduction of the "Sleep Standard Deviation Improvement Program" / Loop Quest Co., Ltd. CEO: Takehiro Asai Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of patients visiting our hospital in 2020 was 114% higher than the previous year, providing an opportunity to see that people are becoming more aware of keeping their bodies in shape. As the COVID-19 pandemic has caused changes in work and private life, we have also seen changes in the reasons why patients visit our clinic. Among the wide range of concerns, the one that has seen the biggest increase in demand is "sleep." We found that 33.2% of patients have issues with sleep. Seventy percent of our patients are women, and 37.9% of them have problems with sleep, with women in their 30s in particular being in the most serious situation. We believe that sleep can be improved through treatments at our osteopathic clinic, so we have decided to proceed with preparations to introduce a "sleep deviation improvement program." Nowadays, there are many different types of sleep problems. Therefore, in order to improve the sleep of patients, we believe that the staff who provide treatment must first deepen their understanding of "sleep" and improve the quality of their own sleep. Therefore, we partnered with Brain Sleep, introduced a sleep education program supervised by Seiji Nishino, author of "The Stanford Method for Better Sleep," and focused on improving the knowledge of our staff. In the future, we plan to expand beyond the Mita branch of VIVA Pelvic Chiropractic and Osteopathic Clinic to 13 other stores in the Kansai region and Tokyo. Furthermore, we would like to take advantage of our relationships with local governments to play a part in improving sleep in the community. What is the "Sleep Standard Deviation Improvement Program"? In addition to the regular treatments offered by Loop Quest, we aim to improve sleep saturation through a cognitive behavioral therapy approach that incorporates aspects of sleep hygiene, relaxation therapy, mindfulness, and basic breathing. We will also introduce the "Sleep Saturation® Service*1," a sleep visualization service provided by Brain Sleep that is based on medical interviews, to check sleep regularly and provide support for disruptions caused by seasonal and environmental changes. Recommended program duration: 3-6 months For inquiries and applications, please contact: VIVA Pelvic Chiropractic and Osteopathic Clinic Mita [Tel] 079-558-8655 In implementing the "Sleep Standard Deviation Improvement Program," we provided employees with sleep education provided by sleep specialists, medical doctors, and athletic trainers who are active in the fields of sleep medicine and sleep research, together with our founder, Mr. Nishino. <Lecturers> 1.
