Trusted by Hospitals, Called by Schools, and Visited by Peers: Kichijoji 'Produce' Celebrates 1st Anniversary of Relocation

With patient referrals from over 11 doctors, developmental support guidance at public elementary schools, consulting requests for facility launches from other prefectures, and features in industry magazines—'Produce' (Produce Co., Ltd./Musashino, Tokyo; CEO: Kentaro Yamazaki), a medical fitness facility in Kichijoji operated by licensed physical therapists and judo therapists, has celebrated its first anniversary since its relocation in June 2025. Born from the realization that 'there is a gap that neither hospitals nor gyms can fill,' the facility has grown over seven years of operation and one year since its move into a trusted hub for medical, educational, and industry professionals. Twelve licensed staff members provide fully customized programs using genetic testing and AI analysis for clients ranging from young children to those in their 90s. CEO Kentaro Yamazaki founded the company in 2018 after witnessing the plight of 'rehabilitation refugees' while working as a rehabilitation department head at an orthopedic clinic. The new facility features counseling rooms and seven AI-powered 'BioCircuit' machines. Currently, the facility receives referrals from over 11 doctors, including those from Kichijoji Minami Hospital and Kugayama Hospital. Furthermore, they are expanding their reach through on-site guidance at elementary schools in Chiyoda Ward and consulting for facility launches in Yamanashi Prefecture. Their home-visit rehabilitation business has expanded to 24 facilities, now accounting for approximately half of their revenue. A 'Yokohama Branch' is scheduled to open within 2026.
