Improvement without surgery
Y.Y, 20s, female teacher living in Sendai City
I came to Makizume Beauty Chiropractic Clinic because I wanted to cure my right thumb’s ingrown toenail. Before coming here, I was advised to undergo surgery at an orthopedic clinic, which made me feel anxious. After seeing the treatment methods on the clinic’s website, I decided to give it a try. Although I have a sensitive constitution to pain, the ingrown toenail correction treatment was pain-free. After a few sessions, the shape of my ingrown toenail improved, and the pain disappeared. I was most surprised to learn that it could be cured without surgery.
I thought it was an ingrown toenail, but it turned out to be an ingrown toenail.
Ms. H.S., 40s, office worker living in Sendai City
My left thumbnail was curled up at about a 70-degree angle, causing my thumb to turn red and making it painful to walk. I wondered, “What should I do?” and searched for a place that could provide care. This clinic was right near my workplace, so I decided to visit. After receiving the ingrown toenail correction treatment, the nail no longer dug into the skin, and walking was no longer painful. The redness on my thumb has completely disappeared, and I am very grateful. I had no idea how to care for an ingrown toenail, but since it improved, I recommend that anyone with an ingrown toenail visit the clinic before the pain becomes severe.
It doesn’t hurt now.
Ms. S.A., 40s, office worker living in Sendai City
I wore shoes that didn’t fit for a day, and my toenails became bruised and turned blue. I left it alone for about six months, thinking that my toenails would grow back normally, but gradually my toenails became painful, and it became difficult to walk. I thought it was just an ingrown toenail, but I was surprised when I was told at this clinic that it was an ingrown toenail. After the first treatment, the pain when walking became easier. Walking itself became much easier after the first treatment. Gradually, my toenails grew back without curling, so now I have no pain.
I no longer feel any pain when playing sports.
Mr. S.K., 10s, male student living in Sendai City
My toes were throbbing with pain, and it hurt when they touched anything. I went to the hospital first, where they told me I should go to a chiropractor. While searching for a chiropractic clinic, I found this one, which mentioned that professional boxers had visited there. Since I also play sports, I chose this clinic. After receiving treatment here, I no longer feel any pain when playing sports, and I think the improvement has been so significant that I’ve almost forgotten about the pain I used to have.
We highly recommend this product to anyone who has concerns about their nails.
Male in his 20s, researcher
At first, I cut my own nails, but my ingrown toenails became severe and started to hurt, so I came to the clinic. It hurt when I pressed on them or bumped them against my shoes, so I wanted to correct them. I searched on Google and found that it was possible to improve the condition fundamentally, so I came to the clinic. I had never been treated at another clinic and wanted to cure it on my own. It’s still a work in progress, and it’s not completely pain-free yet, but it has improved considerably. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone who has problems with their nails.
The pain was almost completely gone after just one treatment.
woman in her 50s
My big toe had an ingrown toenail. I went to a dermatologist, but it didn’t heal completely and recurred. I had it fixed with a wire for about three months. After coming here, the pain was almost completely gone after just one treatment. I thought the treatment would be painful, but it was painless. If you are concerned about your nails, I recommend coming here as soon as possible for treatment.

[Severe ingrown toenails] Dramatic improvement with just one correction!
This is a treatment for a customer with severe ingrown toenails.
This is a treatment for a customer with moderate ingrown toenails.

Ingrown toenails can be dramatically improved with a single short treatment.
What is an Ingrown Nail?
An ingrown toenail is a condition in which the nail digs into the skin and causes inflammation.
The ingrown nail damages the skin and causes pain.
The pain gradually worsens due to friction, pressure, and other stimuli.
It rarely heals naturally, so correction of the nail is necessary.
What causes ingrown toenails?
What causes toenails to grow into the skin?
Here are some typical examples.
Pressure from shoes
Wide-heeled pumps, high heels, and other shoes that don’t fit properly
can cause pressure on the toes, causing the nails to dig into the skin.
If the feet are not secured, they can slide around in the shoes while walking
causing pressure on the toes.
Key points for shoes that prevent ingrown toenails
- There should be 1-1.5 cm of space between the toe of the shoe and the tip of the foot.
- Shoes should allow enough room to move the toes.
- Shoes should be secured with Velcro or shoelaces.
Walking style
“Walking without touching the ground with your toes”
People who walk on their toes tend to have difficulty applying upward force from the ground,
which can lead to nail problems.
Correct walking technique
- Step forward with your toes pointing forward.
- Touch the ground with your heel and distribute your weight evenly across the entire sole of your foot.
- Shift your weight from your heel to your little toe, and finally push off the ground with your big toe.
When walking, imagine that the top of your head is being pulled upward by a string.
Deep nail cutting
Incorrect nail cutting can lead to ingrown nails.
Cutting too deeply (deep nail cutting) or continuing to use a round cut with rounded nail tips can cause the edges of the nails to dig into the skin, increasing the strain on the nails with each step.
Proper nail cutting is crucial for preventing ingrown nails.
While it may be tempting to cut the nails in a rounded curve following the shape of the skin, it is important to leave a slight edge to prevent the nail from digging into the skin.
A square cut is a key point in preventing ingrown nails.
Key points for nail cutting
- Shape the nail tip into a square shape and file the corners with a nail file.
- Make the length of the nail tip the same as the skin’s edge.
- Cut the nail gradually to prevent it from splitting.
- Cut the nails when they are soft, such as after a bath.
- Use a nail file if the nails are prone to splitting.
Reasons why treatment at other clinics and salons is ineffective
Ingrown toenail treatment is difficult to improve unless the “root cause” is addressed, so there are cases where treatment is ineffective for the following reasons.
① Treatment approach is insufficient or limited to temporary measures
In the case of dermatology
Treatment ends with prescription medication: Even if inflammation is suppressed with antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, the shape of the nail does not change, making recurrence likely.
Repeated partial nail removal: Even if the nail is temporarily removed, if it does not grow properly, it will grow back into the skin.
Failure of the phenol method: If the nail root is not completely treated, recurrence occurs.
In the case of foot care salons
Unable to address severe pain: Even if wire correction or taping is possible, it cannot be done if there is inflammation or pus.
Insufficient correction of nail shape: In cases requiring long-term care, clients may stop coming midway through the process.
② Worsening due to deep nails or incorrect self-care
- Cutting nails roundly causes them to grow back into the skin.
- Cutting the edges of nails on one’s own may temporarily relieve pain, but the nails will curl further.
- Attempting wire correction while there is inflammation may worsen the condition.
③ Influenced by shoes or walking style
- Shoes that are ill-fitting in size or shape (pointed-toe shoes, heels, overly tight shoes, etc.)
- Walking habits that place excessive strain on the toes
- Sports or other activities that cause prolonged pressure (soccer, ballet, running, etc.)
- Without addressing shoe and walking issues simultaneously, the condition cannot be fundamentally resolved.
④ Influence of nail shape and genetics
- If there are genetic factors contributing to ingrown nails, conventional treatment may not achieve fundamental improvement.
- Depending on the thickness of the nail or the strength of the curve, wire correction or phenol therapy may not be effective.
⑤ Surgical intervention may be necessary in severe cases
If the granulation tissue becomes excessively large: Improvement is difficult with conservative therapy, and surgical intervention is necessary.
If nail deformation has progressed: Simple wire correction may not be sufficient.
In such cases, treatment at a dermatology clinic or foot care salon alone has its limitations, so surgical intervention should be considered.
【Summary】Why isn’t it improving?
- The underlying causes (nail shape, shoes, walking style) are not being addressed
- Self-care or habits are incorrect (deep nail trimming or improper treatment)
- Treatment is temporary and prone to recurrence
- Genetic factors or severe cases may render standard treatment insufficient
Why Makizume Beauty Chiropractic Clinic’s treatments are effective
Why do nails that did not improve at the dermatologist’s office improve at our clinic?
Here is an overview of the care we provide at our clinic.
We take time to examine your nails and accurately assess their condition.
At our clinic, we first ask you to fill out a consultation sheet so that we can thoroughly understand your situation.
Lifestyle habits, work environment,
footwear, and other aspects of daily life can cause ingrown toenails.
Thoroughly understanding these factors is the first step toward fundamental improvement.
Easy-to-understand explanations that satisfy our customers
At our clinic, we explain the causes of ingrown toenails, how to improve them,
and treatment fees, and only proceed with treatment after the customer is satisfied with the explanation.
The transparent correction plate is inconspicuous and gives a beautiful finish.
The beautiful finish, similar to gel nails, surprises even those who have received the treatment.
It is inconspicuous even when wearing sandals.
You only need to visit the clinic once every 2-3 weeks!
In order to replace the plate, you will basically only need to visit the clinic once every 2-3 weeks.
While wearing the corrective device, please try not to get your nails wet and be careful not to put excessive pressure on them, as this will make it less likely for the corrective device to come off.

Nail care is performed to ensure that the nails that will grow in the future are in a normal shape.
We check every month to see if the tools are misaligned and if the nails are in the correct shape.
