I specialize in Thai oil, deep tissue, and traditional Thai massage, with a focus on deep, grounded pressure and slow, intentional pacing to help release long-held tension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My journey in bodywork began in 2013 at the Wat Pho Traditional Medical School in Bangkok. Since then, I\u2019ve continued training in Thailand, India, and Indonesia, learning different approaches to touch, breath, and the mind-body connection. Rather than following one single style, I blend techniques I\u2019ve experienced and studied around the world to create a massage that is both therapeutic and deeply relaxing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a certified yoga instructor (RYT200), I constantly study anatomy, mobility, and holistic wellness to refine my skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having lived and worked across several countries, and having traveled to over 50, I value cultural sensitivity and communication just as much as technique. My intention is to create a calm, non-judgmental environment where anyone can feel safe to relax fully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-f0d24942-0da3-41bb-ad79-c9095910e745\">I speak English, Japanese, and conversational Spanish, having traveled through Latin America as a backpacker for a year and lived in Spain for another year. This international experience strongly shapes how I welcome and connect with clients from around the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"swell-block-columns\"><div class=\"swell-block-columns__inner\">\n<div class=\"swell-block-column swl-has-mb--s\" style=\"--clmn-w--mobile:100%;--clmn-w--tab:100%;--clmn-w--pc:100%;--swl-clmn-pddng:3rem 0rem 1rem 0rem\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nari \u2014 Associate Therapist (JP\/EN\/DE)<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"swell-block-column swl-has-mb--s\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/masotera.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_5941-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/masotera.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_5941-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/masotera.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_5941-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/masotera.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_5941-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/masotera.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_5941-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/masotera.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/IMG_5941-scaled.jpg 1639w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"swell-block-column swl-has-mb--s\">\n<p id=\"block-cca7e68a-7521-4d12-877b-df012c3257c3\">Hi, I\u2019m Nari, a male massage therapist at Masotera Tokyo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a background in English\u2013Japanese translation and years of desk work, I know firsthand how easily tension can build up in the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To relieve my own stiffness, I\u2019ve received massages around the world, and those experiences sparked my passion for bodywork. Because of that journey, I can deeply relate to clients who struggle with pain and daily stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past couple of years, I\u2019ve competed in Best Body Japan, placing third in two local competitions. Through years of dedicated weight training, I\u2019ve gained a detailed understanding of muscle structure and movement. If you\u2019re interested, feel free to ask me for workout or recovery tips during your session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also have a background in singing and acting, which, together with my long history of weight training, has fueled my passion for working on the body to enhance physical performance. As the saying goes, the body and mind are two sides of the same coin; I believe that conditioning your body directly contributes to conditioning your mind and supporting better mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-cca7e68a-7521-4d12-877b-df012c3257c3\">I speak Japanese, English, and conversational German, having studied abroad in Germany.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Our Clients Say<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many clients have told us it\u2019s the best massage they\u2019ve ever received.
