Introduction to Shukla HMT center
Hatanaka style Taping Method is designed to make people better. Taping is to enhance the natural healing process of the body while providing support to muscles and joints without restricting the body's movement.
I believe that the pain and numbness are the result of something. It could be symptom, and that the cause lies in the other parts, thus I think approaching the cause can eliminate pain and numbness.
Also, there are many essential things that keeps the human body healthy. I think that the most necessary are blood, lymph, nerve, muscle, and skeleton. Hatanaka style uses the therapy that enhances the blood and lymph flow.
Shukla HMTC encourages people to experience the difference in the Hatanaka style and other taping styles. In Japan Hatanaka style is also known as Hatanaka Magic tape because it brings magical results.

Founder's Story
The Suffering
A few years ago, I suffered severe back pain, which kept me awake most of the nights. I sought plenty of orthopedics, who consistently took several X-rays and claimed that there was nothing wrong with my back! I kept questioning the cause of that pain? Upon asking, doctors supposed I could be gaining weight, or my stomach might be coming out. We tried countless solutions, from exercises, belts, and painkillers. The pain was so intense that I couldn’t even exercise at times!
A Key Person
I happened to meet Hatanaka sensei in a small gathering by coincidence. The back pain problem came up. As a result, he smiled and asked me to drop by his taping center, claiming that it could be a viable solution for my back pain. Upon visiting his center, and after only 20 minutes of taping parts of my body, he asked me if I felt any pain. To my surprise, the pain was gone!
The Solution
Many of the people around me, including my close friends, had similar pains and weren’t aware of its simple solution. I kept leading them to this taping method, and they were all stunned to see the results. How can just a few tapes be a solution to a consistent pain problem with no medications whatsoever? I had to learn this magical way of therapy because I thought of the number of people I could help. It was my calling to aid. I decided to learn Hatanaka-style taping and use its powers to heal those in need. Today I am a proud graduate of alternative medicine from Hatanaka institute. I am guarded with the theories and practical skills accompanying it and hoping to help as many people as possible.
