Mechanical stretching for height increase in Japan is mainly represented by techniques pioneered by Dr. Kojima and his Ginza Kojima Height Clinic in Tokyo. Kojima's method involves specialized mechanical devices applying intense traction and tension to the lower limbs.The devices include rotary stretching tables and compressed gas cylinders with pressure gauge readings to control the amount of force applied. Patients lie down or sit while the device pulls the bones and surrounding soft tissues in opposite directions with substantial force. The goal is to stimulate plastic deformation (permanent stretching) of the bone/cartilage over time. The tension is measured and adjusted to balance effectiveness and pain, which ranges from moderate to high.Kojima's clinic claims visible height increases of about 1 to 2.5 inches (2.5 to 6.35 cm) over a few months with consistent treatment. There are short intensive courses promising up to 3 cm (about 1.18 inches) increase in 3 days, but some patients may need multiple visits to reach their desired height. This method is said to be suitable for teens over 13 years and adults up to 60 years.
