Haruhiko Masunaga
Shizuto
Masunaga expounded the aim of IOKAI and founded it as an association in
1968. He cited one phrase from a classic book: "A master of medicine
knows illness and its source well and how to cure it." The name "IOKAI"
itself reflects this aim. In Japanese, "I(医)" means medicine
or
medical treatment, "O(王)" means king, authority or master, and "KAI（会）"
means association. He had many patients and students after founding
IOKAI and evolved his own practical method of Shiatsu treatment.
IOKAI(IOKAI Shiatsu Center)、
founded by Shizuto Masunaga、 exists only in Japan. There are shiatsu
schools in other foreign countries who use the name IOKAI. Please pay
attention to the fact that IOKAI in Japan has nothing to do with any of
these schools. Please also take note that Kimura Shiatsu Institute and
ZEN Shiatsu Association（Zen Shiatsu TOKYO） in Japan
have absolutely nothing to do with neither IOKAI nor with
Masunaga-sensei.Please beware of the shiatsu being practiced by these
organizations. It is completely different from the Zen Shiatsu
(Meridian Shiatsu) created by my father, Shizuto
Masunaga.
