There is a website:  www.hoxon.co.jp that sells and rents breast  
pumps, amongst other things.  Their service is excellent, and Japan  
has an excellent parcel delivery system, so your client could order a  
pump and possibly have it delivered to a hotel in one day or possibly  
two.  The Medela line is available through this company.

Japanese language ability is needed to use the site, so your client  
will need either reading and speaking ability to use the site, or a  
helpful Japanese friend to do some talking for her.   That is the  
only barrier, though--she can easily rent a pump through this company.

Sincerely,
Rebecca Sato, LLLL
