After my wife and i walked for hours trying to find a massage place that would take us we stubled across this gem.
Tom ( the ripponggi branch manager ) answered the door and was so genuinely friendly. We tried to converse in japanese using goodgle translate, but he broke the ice and fluently asked if we spoke english in english. Sold. He ssid that they normally only take requests via their website, but they were free at that moment so he welcomed us in, explained the options and took our payment for the combination massage.... which I highly recommend.
Originally, we hesitated about getting a Thai massage in Japan as we wanted a local style massage. But no regrets. I honestly think Tom gave me the best thai massage I've ever had. So skilled. He actually have studied massaging for 4 years in uk prior to going to Japan.
I highly recommend this place if you're in Tokyo. It's nice to meet a true gentleman at the top of his...

I’m not even sure where to begin. The experience was so awful, I firmly believe it was the worst massage experience I’ve ever had.

Truly the worst massage I’ve ever had. I have no idea how they are even remotely close to the rating other people gave. They must be fake...
Read moreOutstanding. Just OUTSTANDING. Excellent, professional Thai massage by Tom. He is a highly trained and exceptionally attentive body worker, who chooses the appropriate stretches and applies the necessary pressure. He seems to have more intuition about my body than I do and knows how to gently (get very firmly) trace a problem back to its source. This is comfortable and relaxing space that is exceptionally welcoming and spotlessly clean. I have recommended it to many friends, and have been very proud to do so. New to the area and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I have visited both therapists and have had Thai massage. Friends recommend the hot stone. You can simply not...
