The holidays can be very tiresome on your body. Do you have sore feet from walking around the mall all day, back or neck stiffness from putting up the 1000 Christmas lights on your house and hand/wrist aches from using your computer mouse too long when buying gifts online? If you have one or all of these ailments, you definitely need to treat yourself to an hour of relief, relaxation and rejuvenation and get rid of those aches and pains.

F&L’s Aquatic Physical Therapy Program has officially moved to the Kokokahi YWCA pool. Aquatic Therapy treats most conditions and injuries, helping patients improve their balance, strength and flexibility through therapeutic exercises in the water. The newly resurfaced pool is heated to 86-88 degrees and has a chair lift to accommodate those who need assistance entering the pool.
Come and check us out at the pool during the week:

We greatly appreciate your tremendous effort toward our “Spread the Aloha” campaign and look forward to having the same support in upcoming events.
Downtown Decadence: A night of food, fashion and fun to benefit the YWCA. On Friday, October 18th, Fukuji & Lum volunteered their massage services for this extravagant and inspiring fundraising event. Two of our massage therapists, Lallie Sinay and Lisa Yamasaki, gave guests therapeutic and relaxing massages throughout the evening. They had a great time making people feel great and loved being part of such a wonderful decadent experience! Fukuji & Lum hopes to be a part of this event again next year.
Every October, Fukuji & Lum staff look forward to celebrating their profession with a month full of EXTREME HALLOWEEN FUN, CRAZY FASHION and TEAM SPIRIT! Each clinic celebrates PT Month by participating in Spirit Days throughout the month. From Wacky Hair Day to Pattern Confusion Day, staff are given the opportunity to show off their creative side. As for Halloween, the staff picked this year’s theme to be “Arcade Adventures of F&L”. Staff will be dressing up as arcade game characters. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to see all the craziness that goes on at our clinics!!
October is National Physical Therapy Month and the clinics of Fukuji & Lum Physical Therapy are having a “Spread the Aloha” drive, collecting various donation items each week to support local charities. For our staff at F&L, this drive gives us the opportunity to provide services to those less fortunate in ways other than direct clinical care. We want them to have footwear, clothing, toiletries and other necessities that will help them to be healthier, more active and improve their overall quality of life.
If you are near one of our four locations on Oahu, please fell free to stop by and make a donation. You can also enter our drawing for a FREE one-hour massage for any weekly donation you make.

Fukuji and Lum Physical Therapy hosted physical therapist students and faculty members from Osaka Kawasaki Rehabilitation University on September 13, 2013. The students observed treatments such as joint mobilization, traction, and electrical stimulation at the Kaneohe clinic, participated in work conditioning exercises and training at WORC, and viewed aquatic therapy at the Pohai Nani pool.
The group of students from Japan were led by Sensei Rie Takakura, P.T., a part time resident of Hawaii, who has been teaching in Osaka for a year. Sensei Takakura wanted to expose her students to physical therapy done in the U.S. as physical therapists in Japan work primarily in hospitals. Privately owned physical therapy clinics are not available so we were more than happy to share a little of what we do with our colleagues from Japan.
Fukuji & Lum visited Central Pacific Bank for their annual Health and Wellness Fair in September. The F&L staff enjoyed talking with CPB employees about “What is Physical Therapy” and how they could benefit from our services. Our main focus was to discuss with employees how they could ergonomically correct their work space to prevent pain and future injury. We also had the opportunity to answer questions and perform physical assessments.
Fukuji & Lum was honored to participate in the Honolulu Police Department’s Annual Health Fair in August. We tested grip strength using a dynamometer and provided free physical therapy screenings to HPD employees. To beat the summer heat at Sister Roberta Derby Park, we passed out shave ice to everyone as a nice, refreshing treat!
