Had the great pleasure of being on Akaten's massage table. As mentioned, a professional studio with an electric table, which makes for easily adjustable heights. Akaten is very knowledgeable and skilled working on the body. I went in to address a few problem spots which were fully addressed. I only hope I returned half as good as I got in the exchange. I look forward to scheduling another exchange soon.

The studio was extremely professional and I loved the electric table that he has. It makes giving the massage extremely easy for people who are different heights. The massage was very good and he was able to really work out some knots that I didn't even know I had. His knowledge of the body and muscles really came in handy as he worked his way down my torso. It was very good. The pressure was also just right, and when I asked him to go easier in other areas, he was quick to adjust to my needs. I would definitely recommend him for a massage session and look forward to doing it again.
Akaten is remarkably skillful, very professional and has friendly demeanor. He was concerned with addressing my back pain and succeeeded quite well. Highly recommended.
Akaten is a warm and welcoming person whose high ratings are well earned. He’s tall, handsome, well built and a wonderful host. His deep tissue approach to my neck, back and hips was deeply therapeutic, while at the same time being soothing, and perfect for getting me sorted and restored from the long flight West and lingering effects of the jet-lag I’d been feeling. He is also a great instructor. He was thoughtful and generous in his feedback about my approach and technique, giving me valuable guidance on how to better achieve a therapeutic outcome. After almost a year of exchanging messages until we met, I feel like I’ve made a strong connection to a great guy. Thanks Akaten.
Outstanding therapist...application of technical skills for effective outcomes is truly remarkable! Excellent facilities. Very friendly and cooperative demeanor. I definitely look forward to a next session with him!
Fantastic massage, from a fantastic guy! Open, friendly, warm and extensive knowledge of the body and healing through touch. Had a wonderful exchange and greatly look forward to next time!
Akaten did an excellent job of relaxing my muscles and working out the knots that have built up over time of neglect.
I highly recommend Akaten for an awesome massage exchange.
Akaten uses the best practice of using coconut oil that is amazing and nourishing for your skin.
Thanks for a great exchange.
I spent a lovely few hours with Akaten this week and was treated to a wonderful and thorough massage. He is a kind and calm fellow, that puts you at ease right away. We chatted freely and about interesting things and the time seemed to pass quickly and with ease.
He is very knowledgeable about massage and the body. I would recommend spending some time with him, and hope to do just that when I return to the Seattle area.
one word: wow. I cycled 10.5mi from the ferry dock to his office space for a truly wonderful experience. Therapeutic in nature he went very deep all over exspecially my legs/back which were giving me a fit due to the cycling. He does amazing adductor work as well... Planning a repeat session @ my place soon, too!
