Welcome
Welcome
Hello, I'm Tomo.
I'm a Japanese Manual Therapist and the founder of Holistic Massage Clinic TEATEYA in The Hague.
I help people with chronic pain, recurring muscle tension, and postural problems by looking beyond the painful area and assessing how the whole body works together.
My goal is not simply to reduce pain. It is to help people move more naturally, feel more comfortable, and regain confidence in their bodies.
My Story
My Story
My journey into manual therapy began with my own pain.
I didn't start out treating the root causes of pain. Early in my career, I practiced conventional relaxation massage.
Clients would ask me to press harder wherever they felt stiff, and I did. But the relief never lasted. The same tension always came back — sometimes within days.
I also went through my own experience with severe lower back pain and knee pain, visiting hospitals and trying different treatments, only to have the pain return again and again.
Both experiences led me to the same question: if pressing harder on the painful spot doesn't actually solve anything, what does?
That question sent me into years of seminars and study — anatomy, movement, posture, biomechanics, and Japanese manual therapy. Over time, I found the methods that actually changed outcomes for my clients: the JPR (Japan Pain Rehabilitation Association) method, KYT, Seitai, myofascial release, Sōtai-hō, craniosacral work, and visceral therapy.
These are the methods I now use every day at TEATEYA.
Continuous Learning
I don't hold a national therapy license, but I hold private certifications in the methods I practice — and I have never stopped studying since.
The human body is incredibly complex, and the more I learn, the more I realize there is always more to understand. That's why I continue attending seminars and updating my skills every year, so that the treatment you receive keeps improving over time.
My Promise + Thank You
When you visit TEATEYA, I will listen carefully, assess thoroughly, treat respectfully, and explain honestly — so you understand your own body, not just the treatment you received.
Whether your symptoms have lasted for weeks or for years, my goal is lasting improvement, not temporary relief.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about TEATEYA. I look forward to helping you move with greater comfort, confidence, and freedom.

My Approach
My Approach
Treatment at TEATEYA is gentle, precise, and focused on improving function.
Sessions are performed fully clothed.
There are no oils.
No forceful manipulation.
No one-size-fits-all routine.
Instead, every treatment is based on careful assessment and clinical reasoning.
My goal is not to chase symptoms.
My goal is to help your body move better.
Continuous Learning
Continuous Learning
The human body is incredibly complex.
The more I learn, the more I realize there is always more to understand.
That is why I continue studying anatomy, biomechanics, movement, and manual therapy every year.
Continuous learning allows me to refine my clinical skills and provide better care for every person who walks into my clinic.
Why I Do This Work
Why I Do This Work
Pain changes lives.
It limits movement.
It affects sleep.
It reduces confidence.
It can stop people from enjoying the activities they love.
I believe that when people move with less pain, they can enjoy life more fully, stay active, and spend more meaningful time doing what they love.
Helping people regain that freedom is the reason I continue this work every day.
My Promise

And always do my best to help you understand your body better.
