Tokumoto Method of Perinatal Chiropractic techniques and visceral manipulation is very unique, easy to apply, and gentle and safe on perinatal bodies. Tokumoto Method can be applied on its own, or used in conjunction with many other perinatal manual therapies. In Japan, many successful cases have been reported showing that the Tokumoto Method has a positive impact on easing abdominal tension that is often experienced during pregnancy, as well as postpartum breast massage outcomes.
