The first pain clinic in Japan was organized and operated by anesthesiologists at the University of Tokyo. Today, many universities and large hospitals have set up pain clinics in their anesthetics department and have made great progress in the management of diseases in this filed. Almost all those institutions use oriental methods like acupuncture, ryodoraku and kyo in addition to standard methods. At our pain clinic, nerve block has been the sole method from the beginning. Neither drugs (except carbamazepine, imipramine and ergotamine) nor oriental methods have been used. The pain clinic ought to be separated from the anesthetics department and operated independently, having its own wards.
日本的第一家疼痛诊所是由东京大学的麻醉医生组织并运营的。如今，许多大学和大型医院在其麻醉科设立了疼痛诊所，并在该领域疾病的管理方面取得了很大进展。几乎所有这些机构除了使用标准方法外，还采用针灸、经络测定法和经穴等东方方法。在我们的疼痛诊所，从一开始神经阻滞就是唯一的方法。既未使用药物（除卡马西平、丙咪嗪和麦角胺外），也未采用东方方法。疼痛诊所应与麻醉科分开并独立运营，拥有自己的病房。
