Achiko
Experience a Journey Through the Universe of the Body with Esalen® Massage 🌿
To me, Esalen® Massage feels like a cosmic journey through the universe of the human body. My hands become a gentle yet powerful rocket carrying your senses through space—sometimes flowing and soothing, sometimes with deep, grounding strokes. Have you ever wondered why a stretch from another person feels so much better than doing it yourself? Esalen invites those kinds of subtle realizations—little awakenings of the body and soul.
Specialized Techniquesn
・Certified Esalen® Massage Practitioner (California-style oil bodywork)
・Basic Craniosacral Therapy
・Licensed Acupuncturist & Massage Therapist (not currently practicing acupuncture)
・3rd-degree Black Belt in Traditional Japanese Karate (Japan Karate Association)
Hobbies & Current Interests
When I was 20, I saw a karate kata performance on TV—and it hit me like lightning. I became fascinated by the beauty and power of the human body in motion. This passion led me to train in traditional healing arts, where I eventually fell in love with the depth and philosophy of Esalen Massage. In my free time, I’m a music lover—currently diving into jazz, after detours through British rock and progressive music.
