Athlete Works Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kita-ku, Osaka; hereinafter "Athlete Works"), which provides training specialized for junior sports, will start a "Specialized Trainer Training Program" targeting osteopathic clinics, bonesetters, and acupuncture clinics, offering know-how on junior training guidance during the growth period.
This program aims to develop human resources capable of consistently supporting performance improvement after treatment, in addition to treatments centered on insurance coverage. This supports the creation of a system that leads to providing new value and continuous visits.
The program offers three courses: "Junior Training Course," "Partner Stretch Course," and "Athletic Rehabilitation Course," allowing participants to systematically acquire practical skills and theories.
For those considering implementation, a free online briefing session will be held from 21:30 on Friday, April 17, 2026, and a one-day hands-on training seminar for clinics will be held in Kyobashi, Osaka, at 13:10 on Sunday, April 26.
*1 Rehabilitation aimed at safely returning to sports and competitive environments with high performance after recovering to the level of daily life from an injury.
Background
In recent years, the patient demographic visiting osteopathic clinics has changed, with increasing consultations particularly from elementary and junior high school students in their growth period and their parents. While there are many voices such as "repeating injuries," "pain is gone but movement has not improved," and "want to build a body to continue competing," there are also cases where conventional "treatment-centric" approaches are not enough.
In response to these needs, by combining "training" that looks ahead to body building after treatment, relapse prevention, and performance improvement, the value provided by osteopathic clinics expands greatly.
In clinics that have actually introduced the program, guidance standards among staff have been unified, and anxiety about handling juniors has been reduced. Explanations to parents have become smoother, and awareness as a "clinic strong with children" has increased, leading to changes that improve the overall credibility of the clinic.
Against this background, Athlete Works has officially launched the "Specialized Trainer Training Program," which systematizes junior training guidance so that osteopathic clinics can evolve from a "place for treatment" to a "place that supports children's growth."
What is the "Specialized Trainer Training Program"
The "Specialized Trainer Training Program" is a program that systematizes and provides the training guidance know-how for growing juniors that Athlete Works has cultivated so far, targeting managers, practitioners, and trainers of osteopathic clinics, bonesetters, and acupuncture clinics.
This program aims to acquire skills that can handle body building and performance improvement after treatment. This supports the creation of new added value in addition to conventional treatment-centric services. In addition, implementation is basically on a per-clinic basis, and customization according to the needs of each clinic is also possible. The lectures combine face-to-face and online formats, offering a total of 20 hours of curriculum with practical content that can be utilized in the field.
