About Asia Physio
For over 20 years, Asia Physio has supported skiers, snowboarders, and travellers throughout Japan’s winter season. We are an Australian-owned, English-speaking international company based in Japan. With clinics across major destinations including Niseko, Rusutsu, Hakuba, Myoko, Nozawa Onsen, and soon Furano for the 2026/27 season, we are an established part of life in the snow. Our work goes beyond treatment – we help people stay active, recover quickly, and make the most of their time on the mountain.
Every role contributes to this, from reception and clinic operations through to hands-on care and behind-the-scenes support. Our clinics are fast-paced, international environments, but also friendly, supportive, and team-focused. At Asia Physio, you’ll be part of a unique winter lifestyle, working in incredible locations, building lasting connections, and contributing to a team that values both excellence and experience.
