Address of the Chair
I have recently observed new physical phenomena where hearing loss persons
can hear generated sound without hearing aids. And some kind of unknown
energy vibrations can change the strength of human beings. There are several
other unknown physical phenomena observed. Although current science cannot
explain such phenomena, it is possible to create useful products in future.
Since I am inaugurated as the vice president of the past "The 21st
Century Rehabilitation Study Group" of this academy, I have recommended
the new way to diffuse the systemized rehabilitation where Mr. Shigeo Takizawa
who has been promoting the proposed research during last several years.
The new study results have been demonstrated since we have obtained the
grant of Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology
scientific. Through our study we feel that the unsolved portion on the
capability of the plasticity on the nervous tissue of people will be clarified
in the rehabilitation medicine. Now, Dr. Kunihiko Fukui who is a pioneer
of rehabilitation medicine of Japan has shown that it is ineffective of
the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, and his proposition has
caused a stir in the Japanese medical establishment. And we will establish
the new rehabilitation medicine based on the TAKIZAWA method through the
9th Japanese domestic conference which convened in Keio University last
year as the first step.
The rehabilitation medicine had "acceptance of disability" in its aspect. It means that we should not treat patient but give up. In International conference 2006 we ask you for the reexamination from the beginning about the existing rehabilitation technique, and consider the TAKIZAWA method which is in predominance notably in contrast of the effect on the aged disabled person's rehabilitation to the existing technique on rehabilitation to the present directly.
It is my great pleasure to hold this conference "Clarify the new
physical phenomenon and innovate the rehabilitation medicine." IMF
appealed and had apprehensive social exhaustion by increasing aged people
who need social protection in the aged society. It is sure that we must
innovate the rehabilitation medicine in the future of the aged society.
Please join us as many as concerned people for new discoveries.
