I just HAD to learn it! The more I learned, the more involved I got into massage, shiatsu, and acupuncture.
The more involved, the longer the journey became. The longer the journey, more and more precious treasures were found on the way.
The journey is still going, and will probably never end.

In the hopes to share the fantastic ability of the human body with the people in Japan, Japanese or not,
I started ENERGY ROOM in the end of May, 2006. Why end of May? Well, it was my 33rd birthday!

My name is Rick Terauchi, born in Kamakura, Kanagawa, Japan. So far from what I have been told from my family, I am a full-blooded Japanese with of course a Japanese citizenship, but that fact is constantly under question by many people on many occasions. Well that is not so important. Or I do not think it is, anyways!

I have a psych degree from OU (University of Oklahoma), which makes me a SOONER! This too may also seem irrelevant, but considering how the body and mind are one, this fact has helped me tremendously in understanding really how influential the human mind can be to the body.

After studying at a school in Tokyo (Hanada Gakuen), I was eligible to take the Japan national exams. After passing those exams, I officially became an acupuncturist, moxibustion therapist, and shiatsu/massage therapist, licensed by the Japanese government.

Not too long after becoming licensed, I again by chance came across a unique form of massage, called "Deep Tissue Massage". Destiny pretty much lead me, and I was lead to the position of teaching Deep Tissue Massage to the Australian people. I did not know of any clinic that performs Deep Tissue Massage in Japan, so there was destiny again, leading me to start ENERGY ROOM.

The miracle of the human body is what got me into doing this job, and is what keeps me going. Indeed, the human body is pretty much unlimited in potential! It is a matter of really focusing and paying attention to what is going on around us and within us, and taking steps accordingly.

I am not a wizzard with magical powers, I am just a form of a "guide", or a person hoping to be able to serve as a "guide". Each and every one of us are responsible for making our own bodies and lives better. We all have the right to such lives and bodies, but in the world today, I personally think it should be considered "a duty" to have good bodies and lives, rather than "a right". And to have good bodies and lives, effort is required.

So we must work at it, and we have to have good bodies and lives! If anything mentioned here catches your attention deep within, come try out one of my therapies at ENERGYROOM!!
