About Robocare Center Hiroshima
Hiroshima Robocare Center is a joint venture between Shalem Co., Ltd. and Oita Robocare Center Co., Ltd., both of which are associated with Araki Neurosurgery Hospital. The Hiroshima Robocare Center was opened in July 2019 in Hiroshima, the “International City for Peace and Culture ” and home to the“ Genbaku Dome and Itsukushima Shrine, two World Heritage Sites ”.
The main feature of the center is that all the staff who provide training are physiotherapists and occupational therapists who have been trained at Araki Neurosurgery Hospital. Specialists who have provided rehabilitation services to many patients during and after their hospitalization provide safe, individualized programs tailored to their conditions.
In our center, HAL® wearable cyborg programs are available not only for people suffering from post-stroke symptoms but also for people who have difficulty walking due to spinal cord injury or muscle weakness. Our entire staff will work together to promote the project so that we can create a place that is full of hospitality and useful to people and society using cutting-edge cybernics technology.

The affiliated hospital, Araki Neurosurgical Hospital, is certified by the Japan Brain Dock Society as a recognized facility. Patients can undergo a brain dock examination using a state-of-the-art 3.0T MRI scanner. A brain dock is a preventive medical checkup designed to detect risk factors in the brain and blood vessels through MRI and other tests, aiming to prevent the onset or progression of brain diseases such as stroke. For stroke prevention, early detection of brain tumors, and the prevention of vascular dementia, we highly recommend undergoing a brain health checkup through a brain dock.
The Hiroshima RoboCare Center is equipped with multiple devices that can be utilized for Neuro HALFIT.
– **Path Leader** (left image): This device uses magnetic stimulation to directly stimulate nerves and muscles, aiming to promote functional recovery.
– **Red Cord** (center image): By utilizing specially designed ropes suspended from the ceiling, this device enables body relaxation, resistance exercises, and neuromuscular control training.
– **Ceiling Track Rail System** (right image): This system involves attaching a dedicated harness to rails installed on the ceiling, allowing the user to perform movements such as standing and walking safely by adjusting the load on the body and preventing falls.
Through specialized programs that make use of these devices, we aim to improve physical functions and help realize the aspirations of our users.
At the affiliated Araki Neurosurgical Hospital, we provide Cybernics Treatment using the medical HAL® device for slowly progressive neuromuscular diseases. In Japan, medical reimbursement is approved for conditions such as spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), distal myopathy, congenital myopathy, inclusion body myositis (IBM), muscular dystrophy, and spastic diseases such as HTLV-1-associated myelopathy (HAM) and hereditary spastic paraplegia. Therapists experienced in providing Cybernics Treatment with medical HAL® for these slowly progressive neuromuscular diseases will support patients with care.
