About Zen Shiatsu
Zen Shiatsu was founded by Shizuto Masunaga.
His book ( Zen Shiatsu: How to Harmonize Yin and Yang for Better Health ) is a world famous and a classic for all Shiatsu practitioners.
He established Meridian acupressure ( Meridian Shiatsu ) methodology.
And he also founded the Iokai Shiatsu Center school in Tokyo.
One of the characteristics of Zen Shiatsu is Abdominal palpation.
It is the technique to see patient’s energy ( yin-yang, chi ) balance, at the same time it is also a treatment.
I ( Takamasa Tsuchiya, manager of Koyasan Uguisu Seitaiin Massage Shiatsu ) studied at Iokai Shiatsu Center school in Tokyo.
I am using Zen Shiatsu technique mainly in my treatments.
I Love Animal Shiatsu
When I tried Shiatsu to horses, I found intuitively that it’s same as human. So I want comunicate with animals through my Shiatsu as much as I can. This is also one of my life activities.
Teaching Shiatsu
Visited several European countries and offered Shiatsu and lectures in 2019 and 2020

My Music
I really had been crazy about creating music since I was young. Originally, I studied Tai Chi, Yoga, meditation and several body works to improve my musical ability. As a result, these skills are very useful for working as a Shiatsu therapist.
Koyasan
I live in the holy mountain, Koyasan (Mt.Koya), one of the most spiritual and peaceful places in Japan. It is a sacred place of Shingon Buddhism. Now I have been accepting my big life-change ( Tokyo → Koyasan ) as my destiny to serve what I can do for the people in the world.
Sometimes I feel like as if I was maditating when I am giving Shiatsu…
