If chiropractic is what you're after.

Kazuaki Kawada went to a chiropractic school, went on to Koto's seminars, and has practiced in Kawasaki since 2011.

He uses no hard kneading and doesn't crack joints, so it may feel different from what you're used to.

Not set on chiropractic?

Koto recommends five more sensei. With them, English is difficult at the salon, so please bring a translation app.
