About Overseas Transportation
GINGA STAGE, we transport those who are Japanese in a foreign country and foreign residents or
travelers in Japan to their home countries.
In order to carry the body overseas, they need a
process called Embalming that performs special antiseptic and epidemic measures.
As a series
of services, first we will claim the body at a place designated by the funeral company, the
embassy or other related organizations.
After that, we will perform the embalming process at
a specialized facility, which will be in charge of preparing necessary documents and various
applications. We will implement everything up to departure.
What is Embalming
Embalming is a general method of body preservation in the western culture, known as "body
health preservation technology" that can preserve and disinfect the body and be brought
closest to the appearance of life.
In Japan where we are facing a super-aged
society. Depending on the area, there may be a short waiting period before cremation due
to congestion at the crematorium.
In such a case, it is possible to maintain the
appearance and hygiene of the deceased person in good condition by an embalming
treatment that disinfects the body.
For example, embalming would preserve the
appearance of the body, but not including a deceased person who has been involved in an
accident.In the case of the deceased person who had a disease that brings about physical
change, it is also possible to perform restoration procedures that will restore more
natural appearances.In addition, with this treatment, there is no concern about
infectious diseases for family members and funeral staff.
Embalming provides time for the ceremony and funeral arrangements because it is more important than anything else that the family feels comfortable and has peace of mind. It is a very effective technology that brings a sense of security.
In the Embalming Treatment, after a small incision is made in a part of the body, an
antiseptic solution is injected in place of the remaining body fluid through the blood
vessel, thereby preventing the body from decaying while maintaining safe hygiene.
As
a series of processes, the body will be transported to a well-equipped embalming room
and placed on the treatment table.
Sanitization and sterilization treatment is
performed, then the injection of antiseptic solution and restoration treatment.
Afterwards makeup, dressing in clothes, and so on is performed by the "embalmer" who has
a national license.
How embalming helps you:
- ・By restoring the appearance of the body that has changed due to an accident or disease, we can create an illusion of the natural expression of when the person was alive.
- ・It is not necessary to apply dry ice to the body of your loved one.
- ・We will offer treatment and transportation of the body (pick-up, departure, etc.) by one-stop service, and strive to reduce the mental and financial burden of the family.
In the Embalming, besides the basic role of controlling the decay of the body and
providing cleanliness, it is possible to have enough time to make the appearance of the
deceased loved one beautiful.
This is also plays a role in relieving the burden of
the feelings of the bereaved people who have lost someone, by even a little,while being
distracted having to worry about finishing the funeral arrangements. This also allows,
once again, having the time and value to be able to face the deceased, which is another
characteristic of Embalming.
