Okazaki Restoration Therapy
Using
Asian
techniques
thousands
of
years old, Okazaki
Restoration Therapy is
very effective in treating musculo-skeletal
ailments along with
nerve
problems.
It
is a deep tissue type of massage that incorporates the major acupoints involved
in healing the body and balancing the energy.
Professor Henry Seishiro Okazaki, founder of Danzan Ryu Jujitsu, also
taught “Seifukujitsu”, which is a Japanese-based combination of massage,
acupressure and herbal healing. Okazaki Restoration Therapy is still practiced
by his son Hachiro, at the Nikko Sanitorium in Honolulu. The styles of massage
incorporated in this therapy are Hawaiian Lomi-Lomi, Swedish and Japanese Anma
massage.
What is Taught?
This course covers the Basic Okazaki massage procedure and includes applicable anatomy and appropriate explanation of the theories for the massage procedure along with some historical data.

What Students Are Saying About Dave Bendigkeit’s Teaching
Comments regarding some of Dave Bendigkeit's previous Okazaki courses.
How
has taking this course influenced your view of your massage practice?
I
now recognize (massage) as an effective healing tool that can complement my
psychotherapeutic work. -
Desiree Pascual
Hypnotherapist & C.M.T.
How
much I have yet to learn, and my capacity to grow like a weed in this field! I
think it has given me a new taste and respect for what I do. Another tool I can
now use when all other modalities I have tried don’t quite do the job.
- Michael Lillehaug C.M.T.
Massage
should be integrated into all forms of martial training for the purpose of
general health, knowledge of the body and its functions. Ultimately, massage
forces a kind of respect for the body that is usually not acquired through
martial training alone.
- Sifu John Magee
Sensei
Dave Bendigkeit is a very good teacher and we have covered a good deal of
material. Not only the Okazaki routine and the manual, but also the water
massage and demonstration of moxa and electrical stimulus. The patient history
form is a good guide. I would highly
recommend this course to others and specifically to seek Sensei Dave Bendigkeit.
