INFORMATION

We are delighted to announce that ITO has recently entered into an official supplier contract with the General Incorporated Association Loco Solare.

Background of the Agreement:

Curling, often referred to as “chess on ice”, demands a high level of strategy. However, conditioning tailored to the specific movements and environment of curling is equally crucial.

During the “delivery” phase, where the player glides on the ice for several seconds while holding the stone in their dominant hand and then releases it, there is considerable stress on the hip, waist, and knee joints.

Furthermore, in the “sweeping” action, which involves making minor adjustments to the speed and direction of the released stone, there is stress on the shoulder joints and lower back.

Additionally, endurance is vital for games that can last up to four hours in a cold environment. Thus, measures to combat the cold are also essential.

Through this contract, we will provide the latest treatment equipment, including three-dimensional interferential current and shortwave therapy devices, tailored to the unique requirements of the sport. We will also offer knowledge and guidance on their usage.

We will enhance the support system to ensure that all players on every team (Loco Solare, Loco Stella, and Loco Drago) can concentrate on their sport with peace of mind.
